BACKGROUND
Introduced in March of 2008, Raincoat has been in development for nearly five years. MotoSolutions was determined to offer a coating that worked well and lasted a long time.
Water on plastic lenses, shields or windows can destroy your vision. Those drops distort what you see and at night, they cause distracting reflections. This distortion can be deadly when riding a motorcycle in the rain. Water also causes safety problems at work when the employee's job requires good vision.
Also, water on your lenses attracts dirt and salts that build up as the water evaporates. The debris reduces your vision still further. During cleaning, this dirt will cause those micro scratches, that shorten the life of your expensive plastic eyewear, lenses shields or windows.
HOW DOES RAINCOAT WORK?
Look closely at the picture of the motorcycle helmet. Only the right side of the faceshield has been treated with Raincoat. Then water was sprayed on the entire shield along with some wind. The vision on the right side is almost perfect. On the left, drops obscure the rider's vision.
Easy to apply and long lasting, Raincoat has a special wax blend that is suspended in a volatile oil. These waxes are hydrophobic, that is, they 'hate' water. They repel water by beading up the drops. Because those beads of water have less contact with yoiur plastic optics, the larger ones run off with gravity or the wind. The remaining water will appear as smaller and more rounded droplets rather than a smear that distorts your vision. By repelling the water, the trapped dirt and salts stay off your lenses or shields. So you will not need to clean them as often. Also, it has been reported that ice and snow find it difficult to stick to plastic surfaces coated with Raincoat Advanced Water Repellent Coating.

About MotoSolutions
Manufacturer of FogTech and RainCoat Advanced Solutions.
Fogtech is a topical anti-fog that is self spreading and
requires no rubbing. Each application can last for
days—three to five days is typical. Raincoat works
by shedding water off plastic lenses so drops will not
distort your vision. At the same time Raincoat keeps
eyewear and plastic shields/windows cleaner and can
reduce ice and snow build up. Raincoat is easy to apply
and is completely transparent, yet lasts for days even in
heavy downpours.
