Yes I do. But after reading up on alternatives to rain-x on here and elsewhere, I stumbled upon Aquapel. People have said it lasts much, much longer than rain-x. Figured for a couple of dollars more, why not try it out?

You know how, no matter how much you scrub the glass with glass cleaner and a good cleaning rag, there is a "line" caused by the difference in texture between the part swept by the wiper blades and the part never cleaned by the blade? Even when the glass has been thoroughly cleaned, that difference in texture is visible? Well, after using the clay, the difference is gone. No line, glass looks new, etc.
Make sure you get a really good grade of detailing clay that won't scratch the glass. (If it doesn't create scratches in the paint, it won't scratch glass, as the glass surface is much harder.) Completely clean is always better than covered up, IMO.

Tried looking for individual clay bars but couldnt find it anywhere, they only sold the kits where the stuff can be had individually for cheaper. Didn't feel like waiting for it to come through online so went ahead and applied Aquapel.
