Windscreen rain repellent. Rain beads off. Safer driving in the wet.

A hydrophobic coating on clean glass transforms wet-weather driving — rain beads and clears at motorway speeds without wipers. Glass is polished first to remove haze and water spots, then professionally coated for 6–12 months protection. From £35, at your door.

01 — The Service What's included

Polish, strip, coat. Rain off at speed.

Rain repellent applied to dirty or contaminated glass does not bond correctly and fails quickly. Glass is polished first to remove haze, water spots and contamination, then IPA-stripped for a clean substrate, then the hydrophobic coating is applied. Preparation is what makes the difference between 6 months and 6 days of protection.

  • Glass polish — windscreen polished with glass compound to remove haze and water spots
  • IPA decontamination — glass stripped clean before coating for proper bonding
  • Hydrophobic coating — professional rain repellent applied and cured
  • All glass option — side windows and rear screen treated if required
  • 6–12 month protection — professional product outlasts off-shelf alternatives significantly
  • Windscreen chip or crack repair — structural damage requires specialist repair
  • Deep scratch removal — deep scratches in glass require professional wet sanding
  • Full exterior wash — add at booking for complete exterior treatment

02 — The visit How it works

Polish, decontaminate, coat, cure — safer glass.

Rain repellent application is a three-stage process. Each stage is required for the coating to bond and last.

i

Glass polish ~20 min

Windscreen polished with specialist glass compound and a DA polisher. Removes water spots, light haze, smear marks and surface contamination. The glass is optically clear after this stage.

ii

IPA decontamination ~10 min

Isopropyl alcohol wipe removes all residual polish oils and leaves the glass in a perfectly clean, oil-free state. This stage ensures the hydrophobic coating bonds to the glass rather than to residue.

iii

Coating application ~15 min

Professional hydrophobic coating applied to the glass and worked in with a foam applicator. Product bonds to the glass surface and creates a water-repelling layer. Applied to all specified glass panels.

iv

Cure & test ~10 min

Coating buffed off and allowed to cure. Water applied to test bead formation — droplets should roll off the glass immediately. Instructions provided on first-drive behaviour (coating needs 1–2 hours to fully cure before rain).

Applied to all glass including side windows. Night driving in rain improved massively — headlight glare and haze from wet glass much reduced.

Quick service done at my home. The coating has lasted well over three months with no top-up needed. Excellent value for what is essentially a safety upgrade.

05 — FAQ Common questions

Everything we get asked before a first booking.

Can't find your answer? Call 0800 208 8885 — we usually pick up within an hour during opening hours.

How long does the rain repellent last?
Professional product applied correctly to properly prepared glass typically lasts 6–12 months. Off-shelf products applied without preparation last weeks. Longevity depends on wiper use frequency — heavy wiper use on dry glass degrades the coating faster.
Is it safe to use wipers on treated glass?
Yes — the coating does not affect wiper performance. However, running wipers on dry glass (without water present) degrades any glass coating faster. At speed in rain, you may find wipers are rarely needed.
Can this be applied after a polish or detail?
Yes — windscreen rain repellent pairs naturally with any exterior service. We apply it as part of most complete details as standard.
Does it affect visibility?
Applied correctly, the coating is optically neutral — it does not tint, distort or reduce visibility. Night driving clarity actually improves as the hydrophobic surface reduces the smearing effect of rain at night.
Can you treat just the windscreen or all glass?
Both options available. Windscreen-only is the most common choice. All-glass treatment includes side windows and rear screen for improved visibility all round.

Rain off your windscreen. At speed.

Glass polished and professionally coated — hydrophobic rain repellent that lasts 6–12 months. From £35.
