I have seen the new hydrophobic glass on some new skyscraper office buildings which the rain literally skids down at great speed sometimes merging droplets and sometimes breaking up. The self cleaning glass in my wood burning stove also more or less works provided that you run it hot enough. Part of that is clever ventilation that runs cool air down the front surface making sure the zone against the glass is never fuel rich. Any transient soot quickly burns away. -- Regards, Martin Brown |

When they used the windscreen wipers, the water instantly beaded into a microscopic mist which you couldn't see through. Many years ago, I had the same when a garage valeted my car (without asking) and waxed the windscreen. I had to talk with Triplex to find out how to get it off the glass. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |
