Does anybody still use this stuff? I haven't used it since the early 90's when all of my car show buddies were using it. Just curious if people still bother.

Since you can just get the windshield cleaner with it already mixed in, most just use that and then cheap out on the wiper blades lol.

hmm, haven't tried that stuff....maybe I should for the hell of it.

I remember having to wax the old stuff on and off...

I use the wax on our car we use for travel, but for everything else we just use the mix and there is very little difference.

I do the exact opposite, got the best blades I could find. PIAA blades come with a special applicant you use. And then once a year apply rain x. Always crystal clear vision!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

However, we all know that is not how 99% out there do it.

the stuff premixed for the washer fluid works well enough for me as long as your moving you dont need to use wipers in the rain it beads and blows off to fast to notice it . well unless its absolutley pouring

I tried Rain X a few years ago and it worked good after you applied it, but after about 2 months it left terrible streaks, I switched to the RainX latitude wiper blades and they have held up well and work extremely well.

I love it, it's just a pain constantly applying it and it never really rained here this summer or snowed last winter so I've gone without.
