Rain X Review
February 23, 2009 by Laurie
Filed under Contests, Product Reviews
I sheepishly admit to ignoring a lot of things about my car. I am usually almost too busy to even think about the little things like keeping the windows clean and changing my wiper blades.
What I didn’t know was that you should be changing them at least twice a year! I don’t think that mine have been changed on my car in over two years.
As you can imagine having a good set of wiper blades is extremely important in the winter months and especially in the rainy season. I know without a good set of wipers on my car I can barely see in the rain and especially when its raining at night.
Clear visibility while driving is extremely important and can improve reaction times in poor weather conditions. In fact, according to a report released in June 2008 by sciencedaily.com, nearly a quarter of all automobile accidents occur in rainy and wet weather so making sure you have properly working wiper blades is important to help avoid accidents in poor weather conditions. By routinely checking your wiper blades and performing safety checks on your car you can help increase your safety while driving during inclement weather.
Since winter is not quite over yet here are some tips to stay safe while driving in the rain, snow, slush and ice:
• Conduct a regular walk around checking your lights, antifreeze, windshield washer fluid and wiper blades regularly
• Ensure your tires are properly inflated and have sufficient tread
• As the temperature drops keep your gas tank at least half full; the extra gas reduces condensation that can plug your fuel line with ice and stall your engine in cooler weather
• Create an emergency pack; items like a blanket, first aid kit, snacks (I have snacks on hand anyway!), bottled water, an ice scraper, flashlight and a bag of kitty litter .
I just recently tried out the new RainX Latitude wipers , a bottle of Rain-X X-treme Clean glass and plastic renew-er, and a bottle of Rain-X Weatherbeater 2-in-1 Glass Cleaner + Rain Repellent and I must say that I love them. The RainX Latitude wiper blades have a contoured design that fits more snugly to your windshield to help remove snow, ice, and rain more effectively. They were a snap to put on which is a plus for car challenged people like me.
The 2-in-1 glass cleaner and rain repellent is excellent. I am amazed at what a difference it makes when it is raining outside. In stead of the rain completely coating my windshield it sort of just beads up and rolls off which helps a great deal for visibility when you are in a downpour.
RainX Latitude Wiper Blades
Easy Installation
- For use on either originally installed standard or curved style wiper blades
- Pre-installed with small j-hook adapter and contains multi-adapter for side pin, large j-hook and bayonet wiper blade arms
- Rain-X Latitude® Version -2 wiper blades fit I&L (Insert & Lock) and PTB (Pinch Tab Button) wiper blade arms
High Performance Wipe
- Contoured design applies even pressure along the entire blade length
- Specially blended graphite coated rubber blade delivers the ultimate smooth, clean, chatter-free wipe
- Built-in aerodynamic spoiler significantly reduces drag, noise and wind lift
Ice Resistant Frame
- Prevents ice and snow build-up through the elimination of exposed metal components
- Durable, rubber-encased substructure increases wiper flexibility and adherence to the windshield in harsh conditions
I will now be a little more vigilant in changing my wiper blades, because it makes such a difference! I didn’t think that just changing your wiper blades would make such a difference. It’s nice to be able to see out the window without feeling like the outside is a hall of mirrors.

Buffalo, NY is considered the wettest city in the continental 48 states receiving some form of precipitation a total of 169 days a year. Louisiana is the wettest continental state receiving over 60 inches of rainfall over the course of an average year and Hawaii is the wettest state overall receiving 63.7 inches of rain a year.

ok I do it at least once a year – ok my love slave does but it gets done but really they wear down in the rough weather and should be changed more
MAKE MY DAY!!!
I learned that 90% of driving decisions are based solely on vision. I change my blades when they start to smear. Thanks for the giveaway.
Wiper blades deteriorate due to many environmental factors including:
Sun: Ultraviolet light and ozone deterioration , Oil: Car waxes and exhaust hold rubber-deteriorating oil
I follow you on Twitter under Meredycat.
Here is a tip I saw 90% of driving decisions are based solely on vision. I change my wipers about every 20000 miles (probably too long). Right this morning I thought I needed new ones.
Great stuff. It works.
they say to change your wipers yearly, I sadly did not know that!

78 percent of motorists only change their wiper blades after the blades themselves begin to impair their visibility and have become a safety hazard.
Include me in that 78%.

I THINK RAIN-X IS THE BEST PRODUCT FOR KEEPNG YOUR WINDSHIELD CLEAR IN THE
RAIN.
My son actually asks me to “do his windshield” when the rainx wears off. I love the stuff.
I did not realize windshield wipers should be changed every year. Probably explains the streaks on my windshield! Thank you!
I change my blades once a year. This stuff really works
Every minute of the day, 1 billion tons of rain falls on the earth. That is A LOT of water!
I changed my wipers 2 years ago. So, I guess it’s time to change ours. Yikes!

Skipping occurs when the blade develops a curvature from lack of use!
I usually change them once a year.
recommended that wiper blades be changed at least every year..
I learned that wiper skipping occurs when the blade develops a curvature from lack of use. I don’t change the wipers, Rod does, and I believe he does it about once each year.
Skipping occurs when the blade develops a curvature from lack of use (e.g.: left in the ‘parked position’ for an extended length of time). So I guess that means “use ’em or lose ’em!”
I found out that wiper blades should be changed every year (GULP!)
I change mine when hubby says “HONEY, time to change your wipe blades.” Geeze!
You mean they don’t have a lifetime warranty??? Just kidding! hahaha

Wow, the wiper and weather page was full of information. I had no idea. We change our wipers about once a year. I didn’t realize so many people (1 out of 5) were driving with wipers that were not up to par.
I learned that 90% of our driving decisions are based on vision. That means these are a very important part of driving. I change mine every 2 years. It would be every year, but I get lazy.
I learned you are supposed to change your wipers on a regular yearly basis!! Thanks for the chance.

Hot dry conditions can cause your wipers to deterioate.
A good tip is to change your wiper blades on Groundhog Day…that’s especially relevant for me because I hibernate alot in the winter, then I’d have super new blades in the Spring!
I usually change them when they are much older, and it’s absolutely necessary.
Thanks for the giveaway, and the helpful reminders!
wipers should be changed every year and that’s what I’ve been doing!
i learned that Buffalo, NY is considered the wettest city
They have a rebate for when you buy two blades, you can get a visibility pack for free. We change our wipers once per year.
wiper blades?…you surpose to change them>>>hahahaha
“Drivers often wait several years to switch out a pair of wipers that went bad after only six to 12 months.”
I can see a little beyond that, but several years? I’ll change mine when they don’t seem to be doing their job, but generally once every year to 18 months. I think the hot, dry conditions factor against me a little.
Twice a year, at 1st sign of sqeecking
I learned:
Every minute of the day, 1 billion tons of rain falls on the earth.
You are supposed to change your wipers every year. Honestly, I change mine when it is too late and I am driving in the rain and can’t see.
I learned There are over 5,000 albums produced since 1960 containing at least one song with the word “rain” in the title. My husband changes our blades when they get ratty but I couldn’t tell you how often that is.
I didn’t that we base 90% of our decisions while driving on vision. Hm!
I change them when it gets so bad that it’s…uh not good.

It is recommended that wiper blades be changed at least every year.
I change my wiper blades whenever they stop working correctly, about once in every 2-3 years…
I learned that 90% of driving decisions are based on vision. I change my blades about once a year, probably.
The curved blade keeps a constant pressure to clean properly.
Also there were many tips to tell you when to change your wipers.
I probably change my wipers once a year.
Skipping can occur when the blade develops a curvature from leaving the blades in the ‘parked position’ for an extended length of time. I’ve been known to do this. 🙁
I change my blades probably about every year or maybe year and a half. I know I should do it more often.
Wiper blades deteriorate due to many environmental factors including:
Sun: Ultraviolet light and ozone deterioration
Oil: Car waxes and exhaust hold rubber-deteriorating oil
Airborne debris: Sand, mud and dust carried in the wind

I learned that – There are over 5,000 albums produced since 1960 containing at least one song with the word “rain” in the title. Now that’s interesting! I generally change my wiper blades when they have reached the point that the wiper is coming off and the plastic is rubbing across my windshield. I could certainly use this kit. Thank you for the chance to win.
90% of driving decisions are based on vision
Wiper blades should be replaced every six months to a year or as soon as you notice a difference in driving visibility.
I change mine when they start to steak, which is about every 4 months.
The contoured design applies even pressure along the entire blade length,and I change them every spring.
You should change your blades if you have streaking.
I love Rain X products 🙂

I change my blades about every 9 months or as needed
I change my blades when they start smearing. I read that salt air makes wiper blades deteriorate faster – I did not know that!
I learned that a small fluffy cumulous cloud may hold 100 to 1000 tons of liquid water. I generally change my wiper blades when it’s obvious they’re no longer working properly. (That’s usually in the middle of a storm when I really need them.)
I know it’s common sense to most but I didn’t know that it is recommended that wiper blades be changed at least every year.

Your wiper blades should be changed about 1 a year!!
EEkkkk I am way off. I change them when it becomes absolutely nessecary
I learned that every minute of the day, 1 billion tons of rain falls on the earth. I usually change my blades when I notice they do not clear the windshield well.
I learned from the site that I can buy them at Walmart in my area. I usually change my wiper blades when the windshield gets smeary rather than clean-I wait too long.
I learned you are supposed to change your wipers on a regular yearly basis- I change mine when they stop working.

i learned that drivers often wait several years to switch out a pair of wipers that went bad after only six to 12 months. yikes! i change mine once a year.
Wiper blades do not last forever and should be replaced annually. I replace only when the start falling apart.
They suggested changing your wiper blades on Groundhog Day. I don’t think I would remember that, but perhaps I would remember to change them each time I moved the clock back and forward.
I change my blades probably every other year, whenever they start to squeak. Good enuf for me.
Thanks for having the giveaway!
wipers should be changed at least once a year,did not know that.
I learned that Rain-X Latitude windshield wiper blades are constructed of specially blended graphite-coated rubber blades which delivers a smooth, clean, chatter-free wipe.
That would be nice since I don’t like that squeaky clacky noise wipers make.
I admit I only change the wiper blades which they are obviously worn out, like NOW. Help.
Rain X is a great product 🙂
You need to change your wipers every year.
I learned that wiper blades need to be changed every 6 months to a year! It’s been years for us, and I can certainly tell. We’ll have to change them very soon. I’d love to win so that we could get free wipers to change them with. 🙂 Thank you so much for offering this giveaway! eyeslikesugar [at] gmail [dot] com

I learned that research indicates that 60% of the drivers who don’t install their own wiper blades cite difficult installation as the reason—but in my case the installation isn’t done because my best friend does it for me. Don’t know how often ‘cuz he checks regularly and changes the blades as needed.
Research indicates that 60% of the drivers who don’t install their own wiper blades cite difficult installation as the reason.
i change mine whenever they’re not working very well anymore, which is usually far short of a year (4-6 months, even keeping them clean). is anything made to last anymore?!?!?
Wiper blades need to be changed yearly….maybe this is my problem! Thanks!
They say to change wiper blades at least every year. Uh, that’s not happening here and we really need to do it as it has been a couple years!
Change them blades at least once a year. I have also found when you use RainX on a regular bases, your blades will last longer.
I saw that you should never use your windshield wipers to de-ice your windshield. Instead, either use an ice scraper or use your defroster to melt snow and ice. Unfortunately, I don’t replace my wipers as much as I should… when I finally can’t see out anymore, I have the mechanic change them
I follow on Twitter! (amweeks)
It is recommended that wiper blades be changed at least every year.

Every minute of the day, 1 billion tons of rain falls on the earth and I change them about once a year
with Chicago weather, rain x has great products
Change your blades once a year.
I learned that Rain-X is teaming up with Jody DeVere to spread this important safety message and mark Groundhog Day as an annual reminder for motorists to change their wiper blades and prepare their vehicles for unpredictable driving conditions. This is a pretty good tip since it’s easy to remember.
I don’t change my blades as often as Rain-X suggests and normally change them when I see some wear which is about every 18 months.
90% of driving decisions are based solely on vision.
Is it just me or is this kind of dense?
Good stuff.

After reviewing the tips, the main thing I’ve learned is that I don’t check and/or change the wiper blades on any regular basis. It is literally years between blades changes; however, I have used the Rain-X glass cleaner and it works so well that – let’s just say that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it… 🙂
It is recommended that you change your wiper blades once a year, I change mine when they start to streak.

I learned that you should change your wiper blades every year. I only change mine when I can’t see when driving in the rain. I never knew you should change them yearly. Thanks for the chance to win.
Site says blades should be changed at least yearly. I change mine whenever I notice that one has started to have the rubber come loose or whenever my mechanic says they need to be changed while the car is being serviced (maybe twice a year?)
Count me in – rain x is an awesome product !!
I like that you can find your car and already have an idea of what model you will need when you go to the store. We only change our blades when the old ones break (I know it is not good). Thank you
I liked this fact.A small fluffy cumulous cloud may hold 100 to 1000 tons of liquid water.

It is recommended that wiper blades be changed at least every year.
I change mine when they start to wear.
If you don’t change your wiper blades at least once a year you won’t be able to see to drive through some of that one billion tons of rain…
“Wiper blades should be replaced every six months to a year or as soon as you notice a difference in driving visibility.” I have my husband change the blades when I see that they are getting old, but I don’t have a particular time frame.

Thanks for the giveaway…I learned that you should “Never use your windshield wipers to de-ice your windshield. Instead, either use an ice scraper or use your defroster to melt snow and ice.”
I usually wait until I hear metal scraping against glass (i.e. the complete deterioration & failure of my wiper blades) before I replace them.
Wait a minute. You’e supposed to change your blades? maybe that’s what I learned. I think I leave them alone until they rot or my husband notices that I need new ones and he changes them. I learned that 90% of driving decisions are based solely on vision.
I would love the chance to win, thanks.
I did not realize they deteriated with the envirement I thought they

They say to change your wiper blades at least once a year. I honestly didn’t know how often to change them, one of those things I don’t think about, so I probably don’t change them that often:) Now I know.
My car could use the attention.
There are over 5,000 albums produced since 1960 containing at least one song with the word “rain” in the title!
Ooops. I just changed my wipers, but it had been YEARS!
Wow! 90% of driving decisions are based solely on vision. We change ours whenever the oil change guys say it’s time to. 😀
I have learned that windshield wipers should be changed every year.
I just assumed they should be replaced when they show signs of wear.
We just replaced our wipers two weeks ago. (Our vehicle is 4 years old–thats how old the wipers were)
Skipping occurs when the blade develops a curvature from lack of use (e.g.: left in the ‘parked position’ for an extended length of time). Who knew that not using your wipers could cause a problem?
I change mine twice a year, once before winter sets in because snow and ice need to be easily removed and once after winter because the snow and ice have usually done a number on my blades.

The yearly wiper blade replacement is what I learned and took to heart. I need to do it.
Pull your wiper blades away from the windshield during winter months to prevent ice build up on the rubber squeegee and to prevent them from sticking to the windshield….I thought this was a very useful tip. I change my wiper blades when I have to get my car inspected ( A NY requirement)

I learned that every minute of the day, 1 billion tons of rain falls on the earth. I also learned that you should change your wiper blades every year. I live in the desert and wiper blades take a beating between the UV, the heat, and the dry air. You really have to change them that often.
I learned that streaking occurs when the rubber squeegee dries, hardens and cracks. It can also be caused by tree sap, road tar and other foreign substances collected on either the glass or the blade.

It is recommended that wiper blades be changed at least every year. I usually change them when they need it.

wow…. I had no idea about all of that… talking about the previous postings. I haven’t changed wiper blades in about a decade… yikes!!
what does that little pic mean on my posting… how weird.. ?!
Wiper blades should be changed every year. I usually change mine right before winter starts — can’t stand turning on the windshield wipers during that first snowstorm of the year and seeing nothing but streaks and slush. Bad time to find out your wipers are shot!
DUH! Wipers dont last forever people. This is what i do every year for my truck wipers get changed 1 time a year an wash the windshield monthly. I use rain x for my truck.
Guys, save your money on the rainX rain repellant. Check the ingredients and you will see that it is isopropyl alcohol. That’s right, you can use the 89cent bottle of rubbing alcohol from your local chain store and save BIG money. I’ve used it for years now and it works exactly the same!
