- I review and compare Rain-X Extreme Temperature De-Icer and Super Tech Winter Formula windshield washer fluid. I purchased the most expensive and lease expensive winter washer fluids available at Walmart, and I test them against each other to see which is better.

This is exactly what I was looking for this winter season after sifting through a bunch of garbage videos that did no testing. Thanks for making this!
No problem! I am happy to hear that it was helpful!
Thank you so much for the video! I happen to be struggling with which brand to choose today, and now I have my answer!
Perfect! Glad it helped!
The water beading technology works at higher speeds like 40 to 45 but it is really nice most of the time you don't have to use your windshield wipers on the highway after using rainx for a while even if it's pouring just flies right off
Nice! Thanks for sharing!
I have added rainex to my list of videos to make in the future. I could coat half of a windshield, then record the effects while driving at different speeds.
Rainx is awesome when applied properly but from this video it seems that washer fluid doesn't actually apply it. Thanks for the video!
Great review. Exactly what I was looking for
Thanks, I appreciate it! Happy it was helpful!
Great video, great test. Thank You, your much appreciated!
Thanks, I appreciate it! Happy to help!
Very well put together
Thank you very much, I appreciate it!
I just bought the Rain X because I’ll be driving from New York to Florida next week. I installed a new set of Bosch Icon blades and rinsed my windshield with the Rain X and took a ride on the thruway on a rainy night. The water beaded up and rolled off as advertised. I typically use the cheaper blue fluid and know it does not do that so I am very satisfied with the results.
Awesome! That’s good to know! Thanks for sharing!
Great work! Fantastic video, thanks
Glad it was helpful!
I bought both of them other day. Thanks for sharing this. The rain-x was 2.47 at Walmart and cheaper one was 1.82 amazing how cheaper is better. Lol 😆
Thanks! No problem! I was surprised as well. When I purchased them, I fully intended to put the good stuff, assumed to be Rain X at the time of purchase, in my wife’s car. I bought the cheap stuff for myself, because if it works, it’s good enough.
After the test, I put the cheap stuff in my wife’s car, and the Rain X is still sitting on a shelf in my garage unused.
I appreciate this post.
Real world driving (upstate NY) I’ve found that the de-icer formula actually works better with heaters on and defrosting, and the rain-x helps lubercate the glass when other cars send salt and water mix back at you. I’ve used almost a gallon a day driving for my company of their supplied blue “crap” I call it lol. My personal truck I use the green rainX bug off and it works Amazing! I tried the orange stuff from rain x. But It’s bad at bugs and ice, but the purple de-icer and green de-bugger I’ve found work the best and I hate any car I get into that uses the blue if it’s bug season or below zero
That’s valuable information. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the video 👍
No problem!
Brilliant video
Well heck good info.
Water bead usually takes hold after a while, not just first application. Once it has a decent coat on the windshield after a few days of regular use the rain water beads up and the wind does most of the work when driving
Good to know. Thanks for sharing.
I was a diehard RainX fan until I saw this, thanks for the video. I'm still a fan of RainX wipers....next test video?
So, I actually did the cup test with a Walmart brand called Splash that has similar claims. A full-size ice cube melted in 5min flat.
Nice! Thanks for sharing!
I am currently running Rain-X wipers with no complaints, but I will add it to my mile long list of future videos!
Brilliant 🤙🤙
Thanks for the video. Can you please test a DIY Windshield washer fluid (= distilled water+91%+some soap) does it freeze? Thanks
Thanks for the suggestion. I have added it to my list. I’ll look into it.
I’ve used the RainX deicer fluid and didn’t like it, but I do like using the RainX All-Season fluid.
That’s great to know! It could be interesting to test a larger variety of fluids head to head in the future. Thanks!
I feel in general that rain X always leave a film, is it just me?
The plastic containers are round in USA and in Canada they are oblong . Why ? Same product . Great Videos
I just looked up a picture of the containers in Canada. That that is interesting.
Project Farm has a freezer that goes to -40 deg, just sayin’….
But good testing overall.
Mr. Farm makes some great videos, not doubt about that!
Glad you enjoyed this video! I’m investing as I go.
What about a cold pour test in the winter temps?
The fluids are rated for -20F and -30F. It does not typically get that cold here, and my freezer only goes down to 0F.
Can you pour this directly into the the windshield fluid reservoir under the hood?
You are correct, it is poured directly into the reservoir as is.
I am planning a mini-series for general auto maintenance. I will add “how to add windshield washer fluid” to the list. Thanks.
Can you do one for the Super Tech Bug Remover vs Rain x Bug remover
I just added it to my list of future videos. But it’s a long list! It seems to keep getting longer, not shorter, despite making a video pretty much every week for the last four years. So I can’t guarantee anything.
Soooooo... I forgot that I had summer formula in my reservoir!!! So it's frozen and I have to keep bringing water to the car with me everyday and it won't be warm enough to melt for another week! This has been the longest 2 weeks of my life!
That’s rough! I get it; it’s currently 11 degrees here and not forecasted to get above freezing for another week.
I’ve fortunately never ran into that problem. I suppose I have gotten lucky and always purchased all season or winter formula.
I hope you find a way to drain it and refill it soon!
I swear by the cheap blue stuff. It still works the best
That’s definitely what I used! The rain-x is still in the bottle unused. I need to get rid of it.
Good incite, thanks.
Glad you found it helpful!
The regular stuff has better value and better quality
Damn 😳
Don't buy the rain-x one. I used it and it froze on my windshield making it really dangerous for me to drive because even when I wipe it off, the thin layer left by the wipers get frozen so quickly and blur the windshield.
Maybe it is because I live in the midwest and it was -7 degrees Fahrenheit when it froze, but still dangerous.
Thanks for sharing! I experienced that in the test as well!
The purple de-icer!!!! The blue will freeze solid.
Good to know. Thanks for sharing.
FYI super tech eats your paint!
