Rain proof Film

[manxie49]

I was sent this link, has anyone seen these?  It looks like a pinlock for for the outside of the visor,  used to repel rain.  Look like it works pretty well in the video, but these things always do.  I personally use RainX which is pretty good.  https://www.popsugarco.com/products/50offphotochromic-anti-fog-helmet-film?st=&fbclid=IwAR1A4wePpK8ieVmxBdpFiRXseCwoNVAPwM08grXkzKB0NpuZcNZuEJJoBx0&variant=002b8291-2843-4911-b351-db1c3ff616f4

It looks like the strips F1 drivers use.

I thought exactly the same when I seen it ..... Wasn't sure if it was just a gimmick,  I'm always sceptical of these things 

[husoi]

Would it be worth it tough?

They don't say how long it lasts, F1 driver discards 1 every 10min or so...

Makes me think how many I would need for a bad storm like day.

Then, because I rarely ride on the rain. Don't think it will be something I'll be looking into.

Ditto, don't really see the point. My pinlock does what it's supposed to and externally my visor has reasonable moisture shedding properties.

I looked at visor tear-offs for bugs but they only exist for a limited range of helmets and they must have a single curve. My Shoei Neotec II is double curve

I use VK visor clean and rain bead. Water just beads and rolls off the visor

I read somewhere that Head and Shoulders shampoo keeps water beading on visors. I think FortNine did a video on it as well.

I agree, I call this "Scotland face in June",  Laughed when I saw this, I seemed to be cleaning my visor every stop when I came down through the central Highlands
