GLACO SOFT99 vs RAIN-X application and first comparison of the best water repellents on the market!

- After using Rain-x for over a year it's time to compare it to GLACO SOFT99. Both products received fantastic reviews so I was really intrigued to see which one is better! This is the beginning of what will be a long term test. I will cover the installation process and initial comparison in this video. You will have to give me a few months to record clips over next couple of months to see how they compare over time.
Thank you for following my channel! Please remember to give it a like!

Silicone based products like the rainx always have better repelling power initially but it quickly drops off compared to fluorine based such as the ultra glaco. You need to apply rainx very frequently to enjoy its initial performance.
Thank you for this info.
Excelent answer. I bought a big glaco and noticed it. In other liquids I noticed greater repellency, but it seems to be more durable. still in testing
And silicone based product let a temporary milky appearance a bit longer after the wipers pass on the windshield, specially during the night.
Tried both and prefer Glaco... seems to last longer, and do not have wiper issues... think the wiper life is shortened with rain X and it makes loud noise too....
Rain x will look better initially but it dissipates so quickly… like In just a few weeks.
Where's the updates??
From what I've seen on the glaco it works best when driving not when stationary which makes sense considering you need it to work while you're moving. How is it while driving?
How did these hold up over time? I dont see an update video. thanks
The glaco you used is made for higher speeds not just stand still, and last a year and rain X last three weeks
Rainx defo lasts longer than that.
Glaco is best one, when you applying Glaco almost immediately you wiping (cotton cloth only) other way is hard to clean up, and on applicator they say Do NOT use microfiber cloth witch is taking back your stuff from the window , I am using Glaco for couple of years and is best working for me, when driving in the city traffic, no need to use wipers on high speed at all, raindrops going away from windshield them shelf, as they said is one year performer, and is truth, regards from Australia
Good to know!
no they very smooth and super quiet, no problem at all
No need to wait before wiping glaco?
@@rapbaluyut5778 you can wait a bit, is depend what is temperature when you applying
i wipe with microfiber.. not cloth, its not optimal?
Great video, thanks!
I use Turtle wax polish and it works brilliantly
same .. i use the turtle wax ceramic spray, works just as well.
With rainx when i was using the wipers it didn't go smooth and here was noise and little haze. How is it with the soft99 ultra?
I would like to apply rainX to the wiper
Loves to know how the wipers work with them. Which of them will judder…
Rain x let a temporay milky appearance on the windshield after the wipers are on and it almost do not happens with glaco. Specially noted during the night.
Not sure it’s worth comparing the products on the windshield when the car is stationary. I’m only interested what happens when I’m driving, and when I’m driving I prefer Glaco Ultra on my car and Glaco DX on my van because I generally drive slower in my van 👍🏽
Glaco states clearly that it’s designed to be used at speeds over 45km/h for the regular formulation. Testing on a stationary car is almost comical.
I did test it on the road. There’s a long term review on my channel.
Very nice test... and thank you for it. I have a question- You have a very strange accent...where are you from
Hi. I’m Polish 😉
You'll need a well rung wet cloth to wipe off glaco. I learnt it the hard way in the first time😂
Extremely well wrung cloth. Hard to get right. I found that using a wrung out cloth followed by a dry cloth worked well. Left me with glass that looked amazing.
It took me a few attempts before I worked it out and it’s definitely more difficult to get right than all these YT videos make out.
This reminds me; i need to re-apply the rainX to my windows.
I need to do it too
Watching this in my car at 80mph and it’s raining in England and I have used the wipers once, it’s just flies up over the car - Rain X
Hopefully not driving it at the same time 🫣
thanks for your sharing. May i know if i can use autoglym fast glass clean the glass alone before applying soft99 ? Are there any other cleansing agents can replace autoglym fast glass?
Hi. You can use any other brand products to clean your glass. I like autoglym that’s why I used it.
Have you considered Glaco vs. Aquapel or are they essentially the same?
Hi. Tbh I never had an experience with Aquapel. Would you recommend it?
Well in my experience it lasts longer than Rain-X, but perhaps isn't as hydrophobic. The problem I run into is very long rainy periods where it's never a good day to re-apply the Rain-X. @@MDrives Another interesting test is comparing brands in how they do with frost. A window that's never had a hydrophobic coating is *much* harder to clear of ice and frost. Fresh Rain-X makes it much, much easier and I presume that other products help too but I haven't really done that test.
Glacco Glass Cleaning Compound
Use it before you apply the glass coating
The compound is amazing and removes everything
No need to clay bar
Videos on TH-cam show you how to use it.
Great. Thank you for advice.
Thanx for the Vid. Was looking update Vid, do you have one??
Hi. I have it all filmed but didn’t publish it yet. Will be out in next 2 weeks.
@@MDrives Looking forward to watching it, Thanx!!
i assume rain x needs to be reapplied after car washes? is glaco immune from that?
Hi. No. You don’t have to, it will stay on the glass easily for about 2 months. Then you re-apply.
Cit timp a tinut ambele ?
Is there a one year update for these two products?
Hi. Yes. th-cam.com/video/i8-ZYXLhUcs/w-d-xo.html
I’d be laughing if I get more than 3 weeks with rain x. 2 months is crazy
Any updates?
GREAT VID. RAINX IS FINE SHORT TERM.
Have u notice that glaco has more beads its hydrophopic.. It only shows its better than rain x... Driving in rain is much better with glaco coz this repels more rain better than rain x... At low speed like 50km glaco repels way better than rain x....u need higher speed for rain x to repel the rain. Hosing the glass does not tell the whole story unless u drive it into the rain.
I had it on a car for a long time and looked for the differences at different speed. Unfortunately there was no noticeable difference between the two in my case.
You would still have to clean your windshield , once a week , twice a week or once a month ?
What kind of cleaning you are asking about?
@@MDrives Just your normal cleaning , window cleaner and microfiber towel .
I only clean my windscreen during summer when I get insects on it. I use quick glass from Autoglym. Other than that I don’t wash it apart from when I wash my car which isn’t too often.
Wow the rain X looks way better at this stage
It does! But it doesn’t count for much when the car is stationary, it’s all about when you are driving 👍🏽
love your accent you sound a bit like bjork and solskjaer 😁
Haha
I don't think you let the glaco cure long enough. you are supposed to let it cure.
It started to rain after 12h after application.
Od razu poznałem, że Polak :D
Tego nie da się ukryć 😉👋
@@MDrives za dobrze rozumiałem angielski :D zamówiłem już glako i chyba zaczynam żałować, ale z drugiej strony używałem RainX tylko bez przygotowania szyb (na boczne i lusterka i bardzo krótko trzymało). Teraz zamówiłem zestaw glako czyścik + niewidzialna wycieraczka. Radzisz zwrócić glako? Dodam, że nie rzadko jeżdzę po autostradzie, raczej miasto więc prędkości do 100km/h
@@mariusz231 Glaco powinien wytrzymać dłużej. Znajomi mają i trzyma się bardzo długo. Nie wiem dlaczego u mnie nie trzymał się dłużej niż rainx. Ja by raczej zatrzymał. Będziesz miał go na lata.
I use rain X brilliant stuff found it cheapest at Asda
Yea until is last 2 weeks or 3 lol
É realmente isso que vc explicou eu faço com o glaco é 1000 x melhor .
Estava em dúvida entre os dois. Mas acabei indo de Glaco. Espero que seja duravel. Ou se não, pelo preço por aqui no Brasil não compensa. Vale mais aqueles de posto de ficar reaplicando.
@@rodrigowmp E ai esse Glaco após esse periudo é bom?
@@xXManiacoXx é um bom produto sim. Mas esperava mais. Não sei se por ter usado outros produtos antes, a ancoragem ficou prejudicada. Pois noto que com pouco uso, algumas partes no vidro ficam deficientes. Quero testar o Rain-X agora. Dizem que tem um resultado melhor, mas em menor tempo. Exigindo mais aplicações. Mas se for fácil a aplicação, não será dificil realizar.
@@rodrigowmp Tem que descontaminar o vidro antes, senão dura menos. Faz toda a diferença.
O caminho das pedras com 3 produtos :
-Glass Refresh também da soft 99. (Descontamina o vidro, é a base de água, sem problema de manchar vidros , como outros produtos ácidos que têm muitas contra indicações e requerem muitos cuidados para aplicar.)
-Glaco ( repelente )
-Glaco Washer no reservatório de água do limpador.( Reforça a repelência que o glaco perde com o tempo devido principalmente pelo uso das palhetas, pois ele mesmo possui efeito repelente ).
Glaco is way better
Have you tried both?
@@MDrives Yes RainX hinterlässt starke Schlieren beim Wischer Glaco macht das nicht. Und Glaco hält viel länger. Das Roll On ist aber für die Frontscheibe besser.
🤡🤡🤡
?
Glaco all day
I think I need to try it again at some point
You didn’t apply glaco correctly so that’s why 😊
How should I apply it?
