People just realizing how to stop their side mirrors from getting wet and so hard to see through, even when it's raining

DRIVING with wet or foggy side mirrors can present minor inconveniences or severe driving hazards.

Fortunately, one auto expert uploaded a YouTube video unveiling a product that consistently keeps these vital car parts spick-and-span.

The video from Car Hacks Official (@carhacksOfficial) begins with a wet side mirror containing limited visibility.

After spraying more water onto the side mirror to prep the glass surface, the clip’s creator shows viewers a bottle of Glaz Stain Guard, a water-repellent coating.

If your vehicle is already clean, you won’t have to toss water on your mirror.

But don’t forget to wipe any dust from your mirror to avoid mixing unwanted abrasives within the water-repellant coating.

Before applying the stain guard product, you should also completely dry the mirror with a microfiber towel.

Microfiber towels typically eliminate the tiny paper fibers you get with paper towels and are less likely to leave streaks.

This clip’s driver is shown uncapping the Glaz Stain Guard and spreading the solution, similar to how deodorant is applied.

Once this auto expert waited 20 minutes for the Glaz Stain Guard to dry, he wiped his mirror with a microfiber towel.

This guard solution will dry faster if you work in a well-ventilated space.

After drying, this video’s creator’s mirror remains clean after water splashes onto its surface.

Instead, water beads are seen flowing through the glass at fast speeds.

Since this product is silicone-based, you’ll likely see a minimal haze on your mirror during the first week of use.

This haze will eventually clear up as you continue to drive and use the stain guard.
