According to the Rain-X website: "Extreme Clean is the best product to remove Rain-X from a glass surface."

It can be found here: Extreme Clean

I agree a squeegee and vinegar water and a micro fiber cloth for weekly cleaning we have enough chemicals in our places already .

Thank you everyone for your suggestion, but thanks to Brandi in particular for suggesting that I check with the source. I saw this answer in www.rainx.com's FAQ section:

What product can be used to remove Rain‑X® Original Glass Treatment from glass?

Rain‑X® Extreme Clean is the best product to use to remove Rain‑X® from a glass surface.

Thank you, orangecamera. It's weird that your post came in only a few minutes ago although it is shown "13 hours ago" here.

I've had that happen too, Ittx. Let us know if Extreme Clean works :)

so is Rain X good for shower doors or not? Can you go a week without the spotting looking bad? thank you

Jeri, as I posted originally, Rain-X was not good for my shower door. It made my brand new pristine door very cloudy and looking horrible. If I remember correctly I was able to have it completely removed with Rain-X Extreme Clean, which is why I wrote the posts above to thank the people that suggested it. My new house now has a water softener which helps keep the shower door clean plus I squeegee it and wipe it dry after every use.

I use a squeegee on my frameless glass shower door daily, when I need to clean it I use original Dawn dishwashing liquid on a Mr Clean sponge...I read it on a housecleaner's forum and it works like a charm.

CD, do you use a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser or Cellulose Sponge Cloth? I just had new shower glass installed yesterday?

Mr Clean Magic Eraser...just a tiny squirt of Dawn on the Magic Eraser, no water, just rub your glass door with it. You can add more Dawn a little at a time as needed. I clean with the Dawn side of the Magic Eraser, then wipe with the dry side of the Magic Eraser. I can reuse it too once or twice.

I use rain x on quite a few shower doors. they sell an automotive and shower door version. Have no idea if the same product but we use the shower door version. I has quite an odor so make sure you have an open window. It does haze but polishes out to crystal clear. Follow instructions and a little goes a long way.

If used correctly it works very good and last a long time. You still need a squeegee but after it looks freshly cleaned and leaves no drop stains.

Be careful with some store bought shower doors as they are coating them from the factory. The eraser can damage the coating and cause swirl marks.

The Rain X doesn't eliminate the need to sqeegee it just makes it easier.

Well I did something real stupid I went to clean my fireplace glass and used Rain-X that's really pretty I lite the fire about 10 minutes later me and the dogs were all puking and sicker and that go out for fresh air here I guess you're not supposed to cook that stuff. Almost died dumb

Well, this is 3 years old now but the easiest way to remove anything would be using a steamer with a squeegee attachment, thats what i use for my shower and it is spotless and chemical free everytime, only takes maybe 2 minutes to do the entire thing

I have all this glass and my friend put Rain-X on the glass. I’ve been trying to remove it with vinegar and window cleaners, but there’s so much glass! It worked for a week or 2 then was a smeary mess. I’m not willing to take Magic Eraser to this, so I’ll try the product Rain X makes.

Hi Gale, did the Rain X cleaner work? I made the mistake of putting the automotive version on my shower door and it has been hazy for 10 years! I've used Magic Eraser, alcohol, bon ami, etc with no difference. I can buff it and it looks pretty good but the haze never comes off. Thanks

You used a lot of abrasives to remove rainex. If rainex clung to your shower for 10 years, thats a feat. I dont think its the rainex thats causing the haze, im no expert tho.

Thanks for the suggestion M Riz, but the haze appeared immediately after applying the Original RainX. When I couldn't buff the haze off, I read the fine print on the bottle which said Do not use on interior glass. As stated, it was a mistake. I only used the Magic Eraser and BonAmi recently trying to make the door look better and not finding anything else that would remove it.

In reference to the Bissell steam cleaner posted above, would that also clean mildew from grout lines in showers?

I JUST happened to buy that steamer. it is fantastic, and the reason i was looking for “best way to remove rainex”. i regrouted the shower, took the doors off and cleaned them w the steamer. they always looked cloudy. the steamer started to pull some gooey smeary stuff off and THATS WHEN I REMEMBERED! i RAINEXED the doors quite some time ago, honestly, i was thinking about trying mineral spirits next. THE steamer is definitely taking it off, but im impatient! i willNEVER use rainex on shower doors again. lesson learned.

I'm sure nail polish remover would remove Rainex. Acetone if you've got it. Careful, it's flammable.
