You guys got this problem, when it rains, the rain just stays on the windshield, it doesn't bead off. I cant see nothing when it rains, even with the wipers at full speed. My 08 IS250 is brand new. 1 week old.

Its Autopia.org

The issue is that the car is covered in a material called cosmoline to resist corrosion when its on the boat. This is removed at the port. You've got residue on the glass.

Go to the store and by some detailers clay and some quick detailer to use as lube. Clay the windshield, once you do that you'll have no problem.

Phewww, Thanks man im gonna do that as soon as I go home. Im gonna try the mothers stage 2 wax first before I go out and buy a clay bar.

The Aquapel will work much better after you've clayed.

The wax won't remove the residue, you need clay.

I use a product called Rain Clear. It lasts a couple or few months per application. I got a free tube at Pepboys. I don't even use my wipers on my current car, even when its raining heavy. I'll see a few other cars like mine, and I know they are using something like it. It used to be on my prior cars that the wipers couldn't maintain decent visiblity. The stuff is great.

Rain-X is just like Aquapel, I prefer Aquapel.

Niether of those will solve the problem though, the windshield needs to be cleaned first.
