I always put in on all my vans and cars..
windshield for sure ..
but side windows, back window, outside mirrors etc.

can't stand a car in the rain without it now.

if you're careless about how you apply it you can get a 'foggy ' affect ..
but I don't usually have that problem.
  I don't even clean the glass meticulously first either ..
just put on a coat, buff it out,
and do it again .
good for a few months at least.

the also make a washer fluid additive.
