Yours is clear, mine is luminuous yellow.
Yours is Xtreme Cleaner Plus, mine is Xtream Cleaner Full Effect.
Yours is pH neutral, mine is....errr...not pH neutral (can't remember)
Yours smells like piss, mine smells like rotten egg.
Both are RTU and don't do too well when diluted.
...errmm....that's about all i can remember....
*
iinm both the names also same? got full effect (maybe yours didnt have plus?)
the item/product code thingy also iinm same.

damn sonax lol so confusing.
and really if it's RTU, then it'll be damn expensive compared against WB which i can dilute and spray to my heart's content sweat.gif

I never use rain-X, because too many of them and I don't know which one is the real thing.....

Before i get it right, I was intro into glass coating... Been used it since, it lasted 8 months on CarPro FlyBy 40.

Now testing GTechnique G1 on 3 cars and still waiting for my 22PLE windscreen coating.

All these rain repellent helps you greatly on your vision during heavy downpour, my suggestion is all drivers should have this to help them during raining days.

...especially recently with the Jabatan Kaji Cuaca predicted strong wind and heavy rains in Pen Msia.
*
from experience, only known 2 distributor for Rain X products:
- Petrolon (Far East) Sdn Bhd
- Wellstock Auto Supplies

last insanely long with windscreen washer additive, and it only costed me like rm20+/bottle that i've been using since 2007/2008? lol

and yeah, highly encourage on rain repellent products as it definitely helps your vision during driving especially during nights where glare from water/rain stuck on windscreen can be a hazard.

Hmmm.... Now I use car shampoo to just clean the wheeel. How is the wheel cleaner works on the wheel?Aggressive?

those cleaners react specifically to brake/iron particles and allows easier removal.
i wouldn't say they are that aggressive if you follow proper methods/instructions/dilutions

okay since u guys said no prob with rainx, i might get a bottle this week biggrin.gif

be sure to get the original.
as mentioned, many fakes and "look-a-likes" such as

WB too acidic !!

i find it ok since i have 1:10 dilution...and much cheaper price...
however as i spray almost an entire bottle of 500ml for 4 wheels/1 session as it isn't as effective as sonax/carpro ironx makes it not as economical as it seems to be hence i am exploring other bulk/gallon options, such as sonax which i absolutely love!

the pricing and the fact that i cannot confirm it to be that neon/highlight yellow color that i am most confident of is a huge turn off though sad.gif
