Visibility is Safety: How Windscreen Water Repellents Can Keep You Safe
Driving in adverse weather can turn a simple journey into a hazardous one, as rain, sleet, and grime obscure vision through the windscreen. Water-repellent products offer a solution by dramatically improving visibility in such conditions, helping to keep drivers safer on the road.
What is Water Repellent, and Why Does it Matter?
Water repellent for windscreens works by creating a hydrophobic (water-repelling) layer on the glass. This layer causes water droplets to bead up and swiftly roll-off, allowing drivers a clearer, more consistent view in the rain and other adverse weather conditions. By reducing streaking and droplet build-up, water repellents make night driving safer by minimising glare from headlights and streetlights, ultimately enhancing road safety.
The Benefits of Water Repellent Products
Water repellents provide several advantages, including:
- Enhanced Visibility: Water beads roll off faster, ensuring clearer views.
- Cleaner Windscreens: Repels dirt, dust, and insects, making the windscreen easier to maintain.
- Less Wear on Wipers: Wipers work more efficiently with less wear, extending their lifespan.
Nasiol’s GlasShield Range (available from Glasfit)
Glasfit offers two premier products from Nasiol
- GlasShield Spray: Long-lasting and suitable for year-round protection.
- GlasShield Wipe-On: A wipe format that makes applying evenly across the windscreen easy.
Both products use nano-technology to bond with the glass surface, creating a protective, invisible barrier against rain and contaminants.
Proper Application for Optimal Safety
For best results, follow these steps:
- Clean and Prep: Start with a spotless windscreen.
- Apply Evenly: Use a microfiber cloth to buff GlasShield Spray or wipe GlasShield Wipe On using lateral and vertical strokes.
- Let it Cure: Allow a full day for curing, keeping it free from contaminants.
This careful application ensures maximum visibility and product durability, making your drive safer and more comfortable.

Water repellent isn’t just about convenience; it’s about safety. Improved visibility helps drivers make quicker decisions and reduces the chance of accidents in unpredictable weather. Nasiol’s water-repellent products are designed to help you drive with confidence, no matter the conditions.
