Standard Rain-X is not designed to be used on coated lenses.

I use a soft cloth and have never applied a fog treatment except to my diving mask.

The tech at Leupold says there is no product that they recommend applying to coated lenses.

Cat Crap! I hear what the guys are saying above about coated lenses and such but that stuff works amazing for glass, goggles, lenses you name it. Would take a lot of work to apply to your windshield....

Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.

Thanks for the replies. Never thought about coated lenses. I learned the hard way that tinted prescription sunglasses and pool chemicals is a no no.

Main use is for SxS glass windshield, i'll keep it off the optics.
Trying this.
