Bilt should be cheap at CycleGear . I was shocked to see ARAIs can be as much as 80 for the shield . I have used carnuba wax ( car wax ) to fill on scratches and pits on windshields on my cars . It works waaaay better than RainX and a can goes a longer time of usage too .
My eye doctor told me to only use eyeglass cleaner on my glasses and shield as Windex ETC can damage some UV coatings . NEVER use RainX on glasses or your shield as I learned the hard way it does not work like it does for car glass . I use Scotts Antifog from CycleGear around 4 a bottle and lasts a week or so depending on conditions . Make sure it is clean and streak free prior to applying it or any other antifog treatment . In SC it is humid very bad which makes July and August unreal torture and the winter seem colder . You can lucky and catch a sale on helmets with a few bucks more for a new helmet and shield as CG often has some for a low price on Bilt brand . I regret not buying their modular FF with built in bluetooth but the hinge felt wimpy to me in the even of an impact . Their Bluetooth universal kit is costs over twice as much .
