It should last 2-3 months, depending on how clean your windscreen is when you apply, as well as how much you use your wipers and windscreen washer. Do you use windscreen washer additive? If you need to use your wipers, it might skip across, so spray some windscreen washer to lube it. But ideally you won't need to use your wipers after applying RainX.

Yeah i use Sonax although i find it seems to be a bit"soapy".I think next time i'll halve the dosage and see how that goes.Thanks Aaron.
is Sonax safe on paint? looking for new washer additive and seeing how i have a luxury euro the HID washer sprays the headlights and gets all over the paint around the headlights.

Yup, it's safe. Just wax your paint regularly as most glass cleaner sprays and some washer additives can strip wax off your paint.
Aaronng where do you get the piaa wipers from and also where can I purchase pollen filter from besides honda.
I got my PIAA wipers from overseas as I couldn't find them here locally. You could try a shop that sells JDM bling like air fresheners and stuff. They should be able to order it in for your. I paid the equivalent of AU$36 for mine and brought them over with me when I came back from overseas. You need size "82" and size "5" silicone refills.
As for pollen filter, I just use the ones from cabinfilter.net or from ebay. You can also PM destrukshn to get the OEM Honda pollen filters.
Yeah, like what traumatized said, you must clean your winscreen well before applying the rain repellent. If your windscreen has waterspots on it, especially on the areas that the wipers don't reach, clean them up with autoglym glass polish before you use rain X.
Oh, and I use Rain X together with Sonax washer additive (stops the skipping) and PIAA silicone wipers (keeps leaving a layer of water repellent on the winscreen so it doesn't streak even when the Rain X is gone).
where do u get this autoglym glass polish from? expensive? easy to use?

Autobarn, I think it's about $18-25. Apply on with a foam or cotton pad, work it in and then wipe off with a clean cotton cloth. After you are done, reapply RainX. Oh and don't get the glass polish on the paint or rubber/plastic trim around the windscreen.
