Apply with a dry cloth and wipe the Rain-X Rain Repellent in a circular, overlapping motion; once you’ve allowed the product to dry, re-apply again and, once the final coat is dry, remove the final layer with a dry cloth or a sprinkling of water. Screw pressure driver into the resin chamber to drive the resin into the break. Tighten until the pressure is almost screwed all the way in. Make sure the rubber mouth has opened wide. Allow 4-6 minutes, depending on the extent of the damage. Apply heat on the windshield with a hot air gun. However, I would imagine that for small repairs – and done correctly – the resin would last a long time. Buff off the Rain-X Fog treatment with a dry cloth or a paper towel - ensure you don’t drive until the windscreen is completely clear.

Unscrew and remove pressure driver from the resin chamber to release any air trapped in the chamber. Make sure there is no air bubble remaining in the break, by looking at the glass at an angle of 45 0. For chips or bull’s eyes, examine the glass from behind the damage area. Repeat step 4 or 5 until your desired results are achieved. Make sure there is enough repair resin or add more repair resin if needed.What is important to understand is that I did not buy the kit with a view that it would provide my car with a permanent repair. The windscreen specialist in Queenstown where I originally took the car made it abundantly clear that the windscreen will need full replacement, and I have already organised this with my insurance company as my car insurance offers excess-free glass cover. The Crown Range road is notorious for challenging weather conditions in the winter, such as the time this Australian tourist managed to flip their car in a snow storm when heading off the road to fit snow chains: After the curing process (which I probably didn’t wait quite long enough for but I was in a hurry) you peel off the curing sheets and begin the strangely satisfying process of scraping off the excess dried resin with the included razor blade..

On this particular day, my wife and I had tossed up taking the longer route to Queenstown, but as we were heading to a specific event in Queenstown we decided to save time and drive the Crown Range road. One thing to note is that the kit claims it is good for multiple repairs, and certainly there are enough curing sheets supplied. However, because of the way you have to cut the bottle top off to use it, I don’t think it is all that practical to re-use. Should You Buy This Kit?The repair kit is also easy to apply. In less than an hour, your windshield will look good as new, as the resin blends well with the windshield. If you apply the Rain-X Windshield, you can have clean car windows without hassle. Aside from that, waxing car windows will be easy. Features – Rain X Windshield repair kit
