I know that the Rain-X thread was beaten to death a couple of weeks ago, but I found an old bottle that I bought years ago and it has confused me. The bottle I have states it is specifically for INSIDE applications.....i.e. bathroom mirrors and inside of windshields. Is this different from the Rain-X made for the outside of the windshield? It's particularly confusing since many list members said NOT to use it on the inside of the windshield....this bottle specifically states to use it on the INSIDE of windshields.

Appreciate the value of your experience.

If you drive at higher sppeds are not using Rain-X you are not a SERIOUS driver. I commute about 45 minutes every day to work and sometimes can go the whole distance in a total down pour w/o even turning on my wipers...
