Advice & Guides Is your bike kit so manky you’re banned from the house for fear of rubbing grub all over the walls? If you’ve got textile bike kit in need of a freshen up, here’s how to do it without ruining it…
Customers are generally impressed with the Nikwax visor spray, praising its ability to make rain bead off the surface, significantly improving vision during wet rides. Its ease of application is also highlighted, with a simple spray and wipe technique, making it ideal for riders. However, some customers note the product's short-lived effectiveness, especially in prolonged rain, necessitating frequent reapplication. Despite this, many find it provides excellent value and prefer it over pricier alternatives. Suitable for various riding conditions, it remains a recommended choice for enhancing visibility.
Easy to apply & works a treat. I bought a new helmet & was impressed by the water dispersion on the way home. Searched for a product that could do the same & this came up. Highly recommended, huge improvement to vision.
Easy to apply, water just beads away without having to keep wiping the visor while riding.
I re-apply every other day when it's raining a lot, I also use it on my glasses, screen, clocks, sat nav, headlight and tail light.
I use Minky glass and mirror cloths which are next level over micro cloths to apply the Nikwax
Bit messy to use but otherwise does as advertised
If applied carefully it lasts about 20 minutes in the rain. I carry a spare with me but I am going to try something else.
Bought this because of the bad weather commuting on my bike. This product works and has made a difference going to and from work in the rain. It does help with vision when it’s raining.
I've always used this product since getting my first bike 15 years ago. It works brilliantly at repelling rain, but does seem to leave light smears. You can't see them with the helmet on though, which I guess is the important bit! Highly recommended, and small enough to stash in your go bag with a couple of microfibre cloths.
This is really good stuff the rain just beads off, and it's easy to apply. if it wasn’t for it only last a couple of hours then it’d of been 5 definitely.
It does what it says on the tin
Brilliant, use this so you can get home safely to your loved ones
Great service from sbs, not tested product in the rain yet
Works very well. Gives better visibility in rain.
aAlways have a bottle of this and use daily, every little helps when the weather is foul, lasts for quite a while but most mornings I'll refresh it with a quick microfibre cloth wipe over, a bottle lasts for ages.

Works at 40mph and above, may work at lower speed with no fairing. However just above stationary cannot repel water similar to other products.
Good stuff. I'm an all weather rider and this stuff is am Essential purchase for me!
Used before every ride. Certainly aids run off during rain.
This does an excellent job of making rain bead off the visor. Initially I'd give it two coats which will then help the coating last longer, then every time you stop reapply. I find the light mist type of rain will still stick but at speed a tilt of the head gets it off.
The trick for best results is keep reapplying, a bottle will last ages so is good value for money.
Bought this for a long distance trip to the unpredictable north of Scotland weather.
Exceeded my expectations. Do need to reapply from time to time, but made a huge difference repelling the rain. Highly recommend this for the price.
Used it on my visor and it works really well, it allows me to see when it’s raining
