| Ohh.........bugs! Is it just me or does the MINI act like a magnet to insects. My windshied and bonnet are covered with the sad remains of our little bug friends. You can see them coming down the autobahn, flapping away. Get out of the way, I said. Then SPLAT Seriously, I've never had so many bugs plastered upon a car. No mercy the MINI says. Are the aerodynamics on the MINI that bad? |

| RainX only leaves a film behind if you do not buff it enough. In my experience, "enough" means a total of about 15 minutes of buffing spread out over three different days. It seems you have to look at the glass from just the right angle in just the right light to get it all. Once you accomplish that, it works quite well for a pretty good length of time. Until you accomplish that, the film can be annoying as all get out. 04 BRG/W MCS |

| Not at all. I keep buffing it until I can't see any sign of a film (I've never buffed more than 5 minutes though). Never noticed the film at night either (and I'm often driving home from work at night). I also use their windshield wiper fluid and the combination of the two is great. |

| ..."Stoner" is the best window cleaner that I've ever used. I find it even more effective than "Rain X at repelling rain drops, and the bugs/bird droppings just do not stick to my windshield. And I use Zaino products as well. The Zaino "Gloss Enhancer" is especially good at keeping bugs and dirt from sticking to the front of my car. Happy detailing! HUMMER SLAYER |

| Just wait until the cicada bugs come out in the next few weeks. Those suckers might come right through the windshield! Jason Livingood | personal web site 2002 DS/W MINI Cooper S Thank you for signing my rear fog light petition. Now we have rear fogs! :-) |
