on a more serious note, ive found mr sheen / generic furniture polish does a pretty good job of making rain bead off.

needs re-aplication every couple of rides though.
I do and it still stays on. I've got to turn my head to the side

When i worked in halfords they done a windscreen treatment called duxback which was a glass treatment to stop water beading on the glass. I tried it on my car and it worked perfect the rain just ran straight off. Unfortunatly i didnt get to try it on my helmet so wouldnt be able to tell u if it works on visors check it out

+1 for Mr Sheen. Quite often get the wife to give my helmet a quick polish...

Check the forecast before turning out. If rain is forecast don't turn out. Problem sorted

Every time you get in from a ride removed visor

Dip visor into wishing up liquid then leave to dry

It's helps with misting a little

Windolene every few rides, the pink liquid version is the best.
