The bottle said that you can use it on windows, headlights, and foglights. I have never tried it on the headlight since it is not glass. Do you guys think that it can be harmful to nonglass material?

I assume it would be perfectly fine for non-glass material. On my dad's old 740IL, there were headlight washers equipped on the car and he would use the RAIN-X windshield washer fluid, which would come out and clean the headlight plastic lenses as well. There was never any harm done to the plastic. If you are going to use the RAIN-X windshield washer, just make sure you do not mix it with any other teflon based windshield washer fluid because it will cause the wipers to stutter (skip) along the windshield.

It seems to be working fine on mine

no.... rainx reacts with plastic... it will haze the plastic.

i have used it and not experienced haze. however, it really works for shit on your lenses. it doesn't bond to the plastic no where near as well as it does to glass. IMO, it lasts about one wash so it's not worth it.

I also don't think using rain-x on plastic headlight lenses is a good idea! I use eagle one plastic polish on mine and it works great,I also use it to clean my navi screen to clean off fingerprints and it gives the screen a nice finish.

I was just assuming it was working as well as it does on my windshield, since I am not looking through the light lenses its hard to tell. I have experienced no hazing, but I will stop using it now.

plexus is the stuff you want to use on any plastic.

Use real plastic polish- after you do the scratch removal procedure if required, Carnuba car wax works well too, rainx bottle says no plastic

SweetJazz

To prevent fingerprints on your Navi just use the back of your fingernail to select items on the screen. Just a light tap is all that is required.

i find that waxing the windows, headlights, and tail lamps gives the exact same effect as rain-x. i used rain-x once and was very impressed with the results, especially at freeway speed. i find that a good carnuba wax coating gives the same result.

i had no problem doing the same thing

pohljm

Yes rain-x at freeway speed and you dont even need wipers

I use a product called "Invisible Glass", made by Stoner, on my headlights, taillights, and fogs (2nd Gen). It's basically a streak free "Windex on Steriods". I'm convinced it clears them up; better than wax can... (It's made for the inside & outside of the windows, and that does indeed work wonders. I highly recommend it. Another tip: clean your wiper blades with it too)

Stoner makes awesome products

i have been using Aquapel by PPG on my windshield and it is great stuff. def lasts longer than the rain-x.

as far as the headlamps, just wax.

this happened to my old car as well.....unless they changed the formula (i'm talking about the product you rub into your windsheild)

if your talking about the rainx glass cleaner or washer fluid, this i can't say whether or not its safe
