Default Did Rain-x ruin my windshield or is it normal (how to make it better)?

When I was driving the neighbor's fifteen year old to school
yesterday
morning, he said it was the nasty rainx. What rainx? I bought
the car used
about six months ago and I never used anything with rain x on
the
windshield.


Is rain-x the culprit? If so, how do I save the windshield?
Is there a way to remove this rain x stuff so I can see again?


If you bought the car used it might have been repainted or in a
bodyshop where it got overspray on the glass.
I have used lacquer thinner and 000 steel wool to remove paint as it
does a good job polishing the glass.
I have used Rain-X for years and never seen a problem with it!
Of course if you live in the rust belt God only knows what is on the
glass.
