Rain-X on plastic anything is a no-no, fogs the plastic.

Same here, use it on all my vehicles. Bottle says not to use it on plastic. I've seen some aftermarket windscreens say it's OK to use on their windshields because they are higher quality plastic. I'd hate to fog the visor on my new Scorpion, they are a bit pricey to ruin. If you have an old visor, give it a shot, it will probably work great in the rain. I won't drive without it.

I use it on all my vehicle windshields, headlight covers, mirrors, etc. Works great. Yes, I put it on face shields, too. Maybe just luck, but haven't had a problem with it.

If you have a full face helmet, buy the shield that is comes with anti-fog. My HJC CL-15 helmet had multiple shields both with and with-out anti fog available. Needless to say I got the anti-fog and it has been great.

Also, I believe rain-x comes in a plastic safe formula as well as the one for glass. it works pretty good
