    I have tried a couple of these products and neither of them seem to work?
    I carried out the instructions to the letter - but they don't seem to work for me!
    Any ideas - does your one work?

    Mr Sheen, better than rain X or any other water repellent products. Also lifts off the dirt before the cloth gets near it, stopping swirling.

    Also if your riding in the rain, a lump of coal in your botty, makes a nice diamond by the time you get home, with all the arse clenching moments

    I use neat Fairy Liquid or the like. Rub a bit of that in and you'll find that the visor doesn't fog up so much

    Every couple of rides or so I polish the outside of the visor with SDoc100 plastic polish - this makes the rain drops bead on the visor and run off with a bit of help from the wind. Also reduces the effect small scratches have with night vision. I have a Pinlock on the inside which I cannot recommend highly enough. As I wear glasses when riding I use Fogtech solution which is brilliant and lasts up to 5 days. I bought some for a tenner about 2 years ago and still have 3/4 of it left. You can use it on the inside of visors as well although I still find the Pinlock better
