They have a separate product that prevents fogging. Not sure if that's on sale though.

Do you know what is almost as good.

Zaino Z6 Gloss Enhancer. It's the Zaino detailing spray. One of the guys here told me about it and it's worked perfect for me ever since.

When you detail your car with the Z6 after a wash do the windows also, in the same manner. Works fantastic, I never use my wipers at highway speed. The stuff is amazing and it is extremely easy to apply.


Wayne, where do you buy Zaino Products from?

Interesting, how long does it last? Seems more economical to apply rain-x though, its much cheaper ...

David, in the GTA you can get it from "The Barbers Chair" establishments located at Square One, FairView Mall (sheppard & 404), Vanghan Mills.

I get mine from the main Ontario Distributor in Guelph , here is their website: http://www.zaino.ca/, It's a bit cheaper there also if you pick it up.

It lasts between washings no problem. As I said I usually use my Zaino Z6 Gloss Enhancer after each wash, you use very little when applying it to the windows. If you already have some, it's worth a try.

RainX works great, but I switched to Zaino as well.
It doesn't last quite as long but it's very easy to apply.

Other than the streaky application, the main thing I don't like about RainX is when it starts to wear off.
It wears off in patches, & then it's a PITA to clean off b4 reapplying.

My rainX has on the MR2 has been going on for 6 months already.

The biggest problem with rainX is that it becomes ineffective if there's too much dirt. When that case does occur (once every 2-3 weeks), I just go to a gas station, use the window washer/squeegee and clean up the windows. Bam, rainX slicks off water at 40km/h!!

Thanks Wayne, I know a couple buddies using Zaino, but I had no idea where to get them locally as they all ordered online.

+1. Even easier for me is P21S Concours. That thing goes on like butter and comes off like it too.

You can use and wax or sealant to do the same thing Rain-X does; I will get around to layering some Klasse SG so I never have to worry about this .

The Rain-X Anti fog doesn't do much for me either. I did use it for winter where fog = frost in interior windows though.

And then there's RainX washer fluid for us lazy people. It reapplies every time you wipe! Unless there's something terribly toxic about it, I'll probably never buy the regular stuff again. It is just amazing during the winter time.

I don't use any of that stuff since I didn't have a good experience years ago. I keep the windshield clean by claying periodically and use a soap with some silicone wax in it.

I can see that with wax.
But for sealants, I have never found that to be the case with Zaino.
IDK about other brands.
