About this deal

A month after visiting Halfords Autocentre in Peterborough to have the treatment applied, which took around half an hour, it’s still going strong with no reduction in effectiveness. The promised six months should be a breeze. Primarily designed to clean and protect motorcycle helmets, Vision + from Autobrite Direct is our top choice for combining a glass cleaner with a hydrophobic layer of protection. Vision + promotes some serious water beading and is perfectly safe to apply to most translucent materials, including glass, acrylic and Perspex. It requires no buffing or curing time, instead wiping straight off after spraying it on. It's not the most refined of products, and the protection offered can be measured in weeks, not months, but it's good value for money and will also double as a decent glass cleaner too. Aaron Edwards from Halfords Autocentres said: “Cold weather can play havoc with our cars. Our research shows that motorists are taking potentially dangerous short-cuts to keep their windscreens clear.”

Whether you are an occasional Sunday motorist, a daily commuter, or a high-mileage driver, when it's pouring with rain it is much more difficult to see out of the windscreen making driving more difficult and dangerous. Visibility will be your number one priority if applying a rain repellent to a car. In the same way that visibility is no.1 when applying some de-icer. After all, the sole job of a rain repellent is road safety, keeping water from congregating on your windscreen. A good rain repellent will see rain beading straight off the windscreen, leaving the road ahead clear. A poor rain repellent may, however, leave a smear on the glass, particularly in sunny or low-light conditions. This hampers visibility when it’s not raining and is a fairly irritating thing to deal with. This innovative technology was originally developed for the airline industry, and it’s now available for your car.

Driving in heavy rain can be dangerous. From reduced visibility to increased stopping distances, heavy rainfall can increase your chances of having an accident on the road. Reduce your chances of running into problems during rainfall with the windscreen treatments from Halfords. The application should take around an hour, and the coating should last around six months, so it’s perfect to prepare for the wettest months. You can even get an extra 5% off with the Halfords Motoring Club Premium member discount.

Clean cars are safer too, especially when using regular cleaning to ensure visibility through your vehicle’s windows and rearview mirrors, and maximise illumination courtesy of sparkling clean headlights. Fuel economy is also improved by vehicle cleanliness, as excess dirt and debris cause unnecessary drag that means your vehicle uses more fuel. The benefits of having a clean car go on, with studies showing that drivers with cleaner cars enjoy better mental and physical health. When it was eventually sunny enough to apply, the process was straightforward but took the most time here. You’re provided with four applicator pads and really need to apply three layers to get the absolute best protection possible. You then need to apply the G2 Residue Remover (also included) to prevent streaking before leaving the whole thing to set for at least three hours.Tested Ryan Gilmore: An absolute pain to apply, Gtechniq G1 requires a good half days’ worth of sunshine to properly cure on the car’s windscreen. With the British weather the way it is, the application was delayed on no less than two occasions owing to approaching rain. It’s best to have a garage or at least a gazebo if you’re planning to apply this. As water struggles to remain attached to the windscreen, it can’t freeze to it either, which handy as the temperatures drop over winter. The hydrophobic qualities are so powerful that at speeds above 40mph, you don’t even need your wiper blades, as the water simply runs off the glass. Under 40mph, the water will spot instead of spreading so it’s much easier to see the road ahead of you. It's a treatment that's applied to your car's glass, and as the name suggests it repels water. So when driving in the rain (at speeds above 40mph) any water blows straight off, so you can see the road ahead much better. How will it help me? Rice Hulls are the outer shells of rice kernels. These hulls, which would otherwise end up in a landfill, are practically indestructible and non-absorbent, and contain naturally occurring silica, which is an enemy of mold and mildew.
