Keep rear camera clear from rain

[eastpointvet]

So I've had my model 3 approaching a year and haven't figured out a solution to keeping rain drops from settling on the rear camera. My previous cars this was never a problem so im wondering if anybody knows of a product or a way to keep rain off the rear view camera.

I have noticed that when it's raining,it gets wet and had poor image quality. Gets better when it dries.

Anybody tried RainX or the like?

They are not recommended for the windshield, where they can lead to wiper chatter, but are probably appropriate for the rear-view camera's bubble.

Can confirm wiper chatter.

I dont want to buy a whole bottle of rain X for that microscopic lens. Anyone have a drop I can have? LoL

Rain x helps a little. I try to make it a habit to wipe it off anytime I walk by it. It seems moisture sticks less when the lens is clean. I have some never wet I may try on it. That stuff is amazing for shoes.

I can send you a drop, I just need $49.95 for S&H.

I tried using RainX on the camera, but it doesn't really work. Raindrops will still obscure the camera and make the image blurry. I found blowing on the lens is usually enough to clear the raindrops if I don't have a microfiber on hand.

I tried rain X didn’t help much I was hoping to hear of some product i wasn’t aware of I guess it’s just something we gotta live with

How 'bout this!

Can confirm rain does SFA on the camera. I use it on my windscreen though I don't get chatter?

Somebody just create an aftermarket cyclops lenses cover.
