Also, don't use the rainx fluid for the washer system, it royally screws with the fill sensor, I now have a permanent message that it is low, even when it is full.

It's a myth with the whole "windex on tint". Tint from the 80's and 90's sucked and it bubbled and faded and was dyed badly. Today's tint isn't dyed it's darkened actual ceramic vinyl and you won't "rub" off the color of the tint.

Albeit be gentle, but a soft wipe with some light windex won't do anything. -From my tinter

I have to dry the car off or I get water marks (on silver no less), so a softener may not be a bad idea.
That is wacky. Rain water isn't free of dust and debris (any more), never mind fluoride and god knows what else. Where do you live that you can do that?

Northeast... rural, but still, I challenge others to try. I was hoping to tactfully prove my wife wrong...


...like I did when she said I couldn't tell Tropicana Orange Juice from the cheap no name stuff. She tried to stuff me and put the cheapo stuff in both glasses and I said neither was Tropicana. BAM!
