My aircon broke ages ago. In the same place on the pipe. On the bend on the front ? No mumof4 ! I don't know the lottery numbers. (just in case the guess is right) ;)

another way of combatting steamed/misted up windows, is washing up liquid.Put a drop on a clean lint free cloth, and polish the insides of the windows with it, you want enough to cover the glass, but not too much or it will end up looking crap.it does clear, so you can see through the glass, and this method does work.I use it on the veccy :)

Got my gal back tonight from having new concentric slave cylinder,clutch and dual mass flywheel and had mega steamy windows (no just me as usual in the car !) can i have a few more details of this rain x stuff so i can get it because i don't think i can hold my breath that long on long journeys to stop them steaming up. :wub:

if you are struggling to get it ste let me know can always nip down again this week see if they have any left postage should be about 2.50 at a guess but that will make it a fiver for you but as i said i paid 6 quid and was happy thats why i went back for another box and ended up with 10

i got the bottle for the windscreen and i used the foam for the rest of the windows but that can be used on windscreen as well the wipes i used on the interior windows

a little tip when you use the foam follow the instructions and dont let it dry on its own wipe it off like it says

Many Thanks chrissy I will give that foam a try first... ;)

I can do better than that and its organic with no chemicals! Having had lots of classic cars with crap de- misters I've tried all sorts. Rain ex is ok but it can cause the water droplets to just form bigger and they then run off the glass and in my case onto my knees (in a Ginetta).

 

An old trick from years back is (sounds daft) to carry half a Potato????????

All you do is cut in half then rub the juice on your windows then clean off after a few minutes. This will then reduce mist problems and only cost you pennies!

Do you have to cut half of Potato in Half again? :P
