Model Forum / General / Models / August 2007Anyone ever tried RainX on kit canopies?
Heya folks! I'm also a parts salesman and auto-mechanic when I'm not teaching or working at the TV station (all of that is true!) and was just putting RainX on my wife's car's wind- shield and side windows today. I noticed how clear it became and how it filled in the microscopic divots. Which made me think... *the Draken ponders* Has anyone tried RainX on their model clear parts yet? It's basically a clear wax, it's very thin, dries VERY quickly, and can be buffed easily with little effort to a beautiful shine. Lemme know dudes... :) -andy > Has anyone tried RainX on their model clear parts yet? > It's basically a clear wax, it's very thin, dries VERY [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > -andy Dunno about prices stateside, but in Europe RainX is much more expensive then Future. Future is in widespread use among modellers, and also does a wonderfull job in filling in minor scratches etc. and making the transparencies more clear. Considering satisfaction and price, I'm not about to change products. Perhaps other modellers have other ideas?

(FYI, I think Rainx is more expensive here in the 'states than Future, but I have a big supply. If it works better... ) Thanks Andy. --- Stephen on 8/22/2007 2:53 AM Drew Hill said the following: > Heya folks! > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Rain-X is not a wax. It contains alcohol and antifreeze components, among other chemicals (smell it). Try it on a scrap canopy before one that you need.
