Rain repellant

[Condor]

Saw this new product listing another board. With Rain-X being harmfull to shields, and being discussed in the past in several threads, I thought Raincoat might be something to look into for those riding in the rain. http://www.motosolutions.com/

 

Here's a short video. Looks pretty good to me.. Hope the link works.

I thought it was something you could spray on the bike and ride in the rain and not get wet... :rotf:

I have a Gold Wing with a tall Tulsa style windshield. Would one of your kits treat the entire windshield or would it take more than that?

Thanks.

I am pretty sure you will only need one pouch or packet to coat the entire shield-two t the most. You get 5 in the kit. A very thin coating is all you need-the thinner the better as it is easier to buff off.

 

A couple of tips.

 

1. Very thin coating

2. Let dry for 3 to 5 minutes

3. Don't use a microfiber cloth to buff. Use soft cotton cloth. A terry cloth towel or similar is great. You do get a small buffing cloth in the kit.

3. Buff immediately on drying. Don't let it sit there for hours or days. If you let it sit, the coating takes a lot of rubbing to come clear. (For fast removal gently use a V2 sponge or a Mr. Clean magic sponge to completely remove Raincoat and start again.)

How long does raincoat last. I'm assuming it lasts longer on face shields than it would on windshields...would that be correct?

 

Could there be a bulk buy discount for the group?

I orderd a sample to see if it's better than the FW1 wax I use now.

OK folks, here is Genes reply to my inquirey of some FREE samples for VR.Org...

Looks like I need 9 more folks to sign up to provide a responce on the product after you use it.

Anyone interested??

 

 

Eck,

First thank you for posting about Raincoat.

I think the product is going to be a great addition to our tankbags.

 

Also, thank you for your thoughtful request.

 

I am open to a selective group getting samples.

 

I am looking for active riders that will apply the product and give me feedback on performance, packaging, the kit, and application instructions.

 

Here is why I need to be selective. Due to postal regulations, Raincoat needs to be expensively packaged to be mailed. So each sample I send costs me about $3 not counting the product. (When I introduced Fogtech, I gave away samples but postage only cost me 41 cents.)

 

So if you can figure out a way to get it to say 10 of the hardiest rain riders who will take the time to email their opinions, I will send three wipes to them.

 

I am open to other ideas as getting Raincoat into the hands of riders is a great promotion.

 

Kind regards,
