Wondering if the headlights on my new S6 are treated with an anti-grime slip agent made of PTFE.

Doubt it. I used some left over Optimum Gloss Coat on mine.

Oh wait maybe I didn't get a chance to read a lot of the more recent posts before I started posting... Why are you asking about the slip agent please? And to "Jasonlitka" Can I ask why you treated the headlights? I'm curious because I just posted a rant about the headlight washers, and was just wondering about your reasons.

I coated my LED headlights with Rain X last time I applied it to the windshield.

Love Rain-X. It's amazing period.


Fun Fact: Your Audi S6 Owners manual specifically says not to use any thing like Rain-X on the windshield.


I was just curious because on another thread I was pointing out that I noticed that with LED lighting the heat generated by the LED's are causing some melting of water/ice/snow over the top of the hood area,(above the Light) and then it drips down the front of the Light cover (the part you Rain-X'ed) and freezes, from wind. I wonder if the Rain-X would Help.
But Idk, the Light covers are plastic are they not? Rain-X is spatially for glass.

I had enough to coat a large SUV. I applied it to the paint, glass, and headlights. Water and dirt just slide right off.
