It rocks and lasts pretty long. The only downside is that its a total pain in the nuts to put on.

I found that it worked well but didn't last very long, and I eventually gave up on it.

Default Never had an issue with foging at all. If youre talking about the stuff you put on the inside...
...of the glass, dont bother because its absolute ****e. I'd be shocked if rain-x still sold that craptastic product.

Ive also tried the rain-x washer fluid, and dont think its much of anything special.

Default the only fogging I've ever seen with rainx is when you use the wipers
After the wipers wipe across the window they slighty fog/haze and it goes away after about 2 seconds. But the point of rain-x is to not really use the wipers.

Thats amazing. How many coats do you put on? I usually do 2 to 3 generous coats.
