Acrylic Dome and Rain-X?

4 posts
  1. Looking to do some over/under shots with the 10.5 behind an Aquatica 8"dome. Can you use Rain-X with it? Any other suggestions welcome

  2. Rain-X bad. The alcohol degrades acrylic, which you'll see as crazing and cracks.

     

    I use RVR Rain Repellent, which was built for acrylic, has no alcohol, and works as well as Rain-x (although not as durable).

     

    All the best, James

  3. For acrylic ports, RainX = BAD, Johnson's Baby Shampoo = GOOD :D

  4. Great tip! I'm gonna use that.
