"If you made the mistake of applying the Rain X, it's very easy to remove with 80 grit sand paper."

Post by: NOCK NOCK on November 12, 2019, 07:41:51 PM: 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.
