How to prevent car glass from retaining water?

Methods to prevent car glass from retaining water include: 1. Using soap, dishwashing liquid, candles, etc. Taking dishwashing liquid as an example, first clean the glass with a dry cloth, then pour the dishwashing liquid onto the dry cloth and wipe every corner of the glass. It is important to note that the entire process should not involve water, and the dry cloth should be used until the dishwashing liquid is no longer visible on the glass; 2. Using a specialized water repellent, simply apply the repellent to the glass, and rainwater will naturally flow away, maintaining clear visibility; 3. If the vehicle has a rearview mirror heating function, simply turn it on to eliminate water droplets on the rearview mirror. The rearview mirror heating and rear windshield heating share the same button.
I've always enjoyed fixing minor car issues myself, especially those related to water sticking to the glass. Driving with blurry vision during rainy days used to be particularly frustrating until I learned to use soapy water: prepare warm water with a few drops of dish soap, apply it to the exterior glass surface after washing the car, gently spread it evenly, and let it dry. Rainwater then simply slides off, making it hassle-free. I also discovered that worn-out wiper blades can worsen the problem, so regular inspection and replacement can extend their lifespan, especially when combined with the coating effect. Remember not to use harsh chemicals to avoid damaging the glass. This DIY method is simple, low-cost, and saves the hassle of frequent visits to repair shops. It makes driving safer, especially during heavy rain on highways, ensuring clear visibility and reducing the risk of accidents.
