    For those who are curious : this potato hack is for one time use only, the second / third time you splash water on that glass the water droplets will not slide . As this hack is not permanent but if you use wax instead of it , It will work and will stay intact for a long period of time

    This works because under a microscope glass is not smooth it’s filled with little microscopic holes and rough texture, it traps water in that’s why it streaks. Rubbing a potato or anything similar will fill those holes causing the water to not get trapped. I sell a product for that and basically that’s how it works
