Star brite Rain View Water Repellent for Glass Windshields and Windows, 8 oz
Star brite Rain View is a water-repellent treatment that improves visibility in wet weather by making rain slide off glass and polycarbonate surfaces instead of beading and smearing. Applied to windshields and windows, it creates a slick surface finish that sheds rain, reducing reliance on wipers and helping maintain a clearer view of the road or water ahead. The formula is designed for automotive, RV, and boat glass and polycarbonate surfaces, including windscreens, running lights, headlights, and taillights.
Rain View is a liquid, unscented treatment applied by hand with a clean cloth in a circular, overlapping motion, then allowed to dry to a light haze before buffing to a clear, streak-free finish. A single application is intended to provide several months of water repellency before reapplication is needed. The 8-fluid-ounce bottle is sized for repeat use across multiple glass surfaces on a boat, car, or RV.
