General Diesel or Petrol for traveling

[DaveB]

It seems to be rather inadequate, but the spare blocks most the view anyway. I’m not sure if it would have helped to mount the wiper on top.

The rear is going to be loaded up with stuff anyway so you won't be able to see out the back

I apologize for off topic.. but found a pic as you mentioned of the wiper.. although a half wipe of the larger door window.

The left hand side window doesn't even have a wiper.
How will we all survive??

Well for a start Dave, we are going to have to buy a jumper by the looks of it...

I have lost track of how many vehicle I have driven that have no rear window or one that you can't see out of because of a load in the back.
Not to mention vehicles without reversing cameras and guidelines, or 360 degree camera views.
I think I will manage

When I'm touring in the defender I typically remove the rear view mirror. Can't see anything anyway and I get a better view out the front!

Often the only thing you could see behind is dust anyway

Simple

RainX

Way too much work.
Doesn't stop dust anyway!

Work??

Rub it on your windscreen with a cloth?

Dust - hit it with a hose.

Come on mate.

I use it on my skylights at home because we have lots of bats & birds flying over
This is a 1200 x 1200 above the main stairs that has been in for 2 years
Just a few small dots of dirt that will wash off next rain storm

Brilliant Dave. I have a skylight over my shower/bath that I can't open

Twice a year my wife asked me to clean it as it gets dusty, dirty and splattered in bird shit.

Get the ladder, climb to second story with bucket of soapy water and couple of cloths.

10 years in a row !!!

The builder also installed these two 1200 x 600 units at the same time in the lounge room and kitchen.
He told me to go and buy the RainX while he was doing it and he would apply several coats to each as part of the install.
After it rains they are crystal clear
They have never been manually cleaned since install

Easier just to drive with you mirrors!
But you have to be an expert driver with a perfect safety record
