waxing windshields: good
i don't see anything here on this board in regards to wax for windshields, so i decided to add a thread here only to provide some "theoritical" benefits.
i ALWAYS wax the windshield when its time to clean my car. the reason is for sudden occasions that i may get stuck behind a big-rig goin on the 605 or whatnot. some(not all) haul rocks/debris without running a cargo cover and casually fling a rock or two at my windshield. i hate this. and as a way to combat scratches and possible cracks, i wax the windshield instead of using window cleaner as i don't see any drawbacks from doing so. it lessens some degree of scratches/cracks as the surface is more smooth and slick.
how you take it...its entirely up to you if you think this will work or benefit you. its just what i do for the extra precaution. cheers, thanks for lookin

I could see it working to lessen some scratches or what not, but it mainly just works as a water repelant. Much like rain-x...oh wait thats what rain-x is.
I used to put a thin coat of a cleaner wax on my windshield every now and then because the main problem your going to have is that it starts to mess up your wipers.

I used to use Liquid Glass and I would put it on my glass. Basically acts like Rain-x
