How to Quickly Deal with Poor Visibility in Rearview Mirrors on Rainy Days?
2 Answers
Adding rearview mirror rain deflectors can prevent rainwater from falling on the mirrors, keeping them clear. The installation steps for rearview mirror rain deflectors are as follows: 1. Clean the area where the rain deflectors will be installed to ensure no debris causes improper adhesion. 2. Compare the position of the rain deflectors with the rearview mirrors to check if the size is correct. 3. Once confirmed, peel off the 3M adhesive on the rain deflectors and attach them. 4. Press the deflectors back and forth with your hands to ensure they are firmly fixed. Of course, you can also use a hairdryer to heat the adhesive for better bonding strength.
As an ordinary driver, when the rearview mirror gets blurry on rainy days, the most convenient method is to carry an absorbent cloth or tissue with me and quickly wipe it at a red light. If the car has a rearview mirror heating function, it's even better—just turn it on and the heat will evaporate the water droplets. For prevention, I spray some rain repellent product on the mirror, which prevents water from leaving marks. Adjusting the mirror angle to let water droplets slide off naturally also reduces blurriness. Checking and handling it a few minutes before driving avoids distractions on the road. When visibility is poor in the rain, don’t rush to overtake—take extra time to check the sides for safety. Regular cleaning to keep the mirror surface smooth is a long-term solution, saving you from last-minute hassles. These small habits help a lot in rainy conditions, being cost-effective, improving the driving experience, and simple yet effective without taking much time.
