Okay, I see your point. Now let’s add another variable… I have ceramic coated both my windshield and my van’s. (Let’s be honest, half of us are detailing enthusiasts who have ceramic coated our pampered automotive companions.)

I just picked up a Ford Expedition last week and haven’t gotten around to coating yet and I was surprised at how the mild rain flummoxed the camera. Different brand of car or is it that the rain wasn’t flying off the windshield?
