Rear Window

I have a 07 Camry SE and when it rains the water just sits on my back window making it hard to see behind me. Can anyone suggest what I can use on my back window.

Look at something like RainX to see if it will bead the water.

You would think that Rain X would work great. If not, you could try applying a coat of wax I suppose.

The rain doesn't run off the center of my backlight either while driving, but I can't believe that you have such a problem seeing through some rain drops.

RainX would be a good choice.

I like using a nice sealant on it, Klasse All-In-One is a good choice as well, it'll bead water very nicely.

I would think that a product that would sheet the water off the glass would work much better. I'm pretty sure that the original poster was having trouble because the water is beading and obscuring his vision.

Ohh man. The windshield tint is a mixed emotion shit for me. Great when driving out in the hot sun and when you gotta stay in the car with the kids whilst the missus does her arrands but soon you spot a squad car while driving, its like "Ahh fuck, any minute now that fucking cop gonna pull me over"

And ive been in situation where im at the lights and on the other side of the junction heading in the opposite direction theres a frigging cop and this would be like late afternoon (time where windshield tints are very noticeable) so anyways im going and so is he, and its like my heart misses so many beats and sweat in my armpits.. Nightmare i tell you
