Rain clears itself above 28 mph. Two years of protection on every piece of glass on the car.
Vista is the glass coating in ULTRACOAT's InteliGraph series, and the effect is one you feel the first time it rains. Water hits the screen and leaves. From around 28 mph the airflow moves rainwater off the windscreen on its own, so you reach for the wiper stalk far less on a motorway run in bad weather.
That is the invisible wiper effect, and it comes from smoothness. The graphene platelets make the glass slicker than any conventional glass sealant can manage, which raises the contact angle of water so high that droplets cannot hold on. The same smoothness stops flies, dust and road spray from bonding, so the winter grime that normally smears across your screen wipes away instead.
The real benefit is not convenience, it is visibility. Night driving in rain is when most people realise how much their screen was scattering headlight glare.
Vista goes on all the exterior glass: windscreen, side windows, rear screen and panoramic roof. Protection lasts up to two years or around 18,000 miles, and for most UK drivers that covers the full two years with room to spare. It is built to withstand UK weather, road salt, UV exposure and regular screen-wash use, and the smart polymers repair micro-damage within the coating, which helps it keep performing for the full period.
- Hydrophobic performance from approximately 28 mph. Water clears at road speed.
- Up to 2 years or around 18,000 miles from one application.
- Helps improve wet-weather visibility, especially at night.
- Insects and road film wipe off instead of smearing.
- 15 ml covers the glass on a standard car.

One of the simplest coatings in the range to get right
Invisible wiper effect. Rain is carried off the glass by airflow alone from around 28 mph.
Intelligent polymers. The coating adapts to changing conditions rather than simply enduring them, and repairs micro-damage within its own layer, so it keeps its properties for longer.
Available in 15 ml, 30 ml and 50 ml. Each bottle includes a standard Ultracoat applicator, instructions and a sticker. Applied by ULTRACOAT PRO-certified studios across the UK. Technical support available.
Application Guide
Prepare. Clean the glass thoroughly and remove any existing rain repellent or coating. Degrease with Glass Cleaner, not Superior Glass, because a hydrophobic layer stops the coating bonding.
Apply. Shake well. Apply with a clean microfibre applicator using circular motions.
Level. Allow 1 to 2 minutes, then buff with a clean, dry microfibre.
Conditions. Apply between 10 °C and 30 °C. Never on hot glass or in direct sunlight.
Safety. Wear a protective mask and gloves throughout application.
Cure. Leave the vehicle 24 hours for a full cure.
Important. Vista supports water clearance but does not replace the safe use of windscreen wipers when conditions require them.
Most coating services are sold on how the car looks. Vista is sold on how it drives. The InteliGraph graphene-ceramic formula creates a surface smooth enough that rainwater clears at road speed, and it reduces the adhesion of road spray, dirt and insect residue. Customers see the effect in normal wet-weather driving, while the proposition stays responsible: Vista supports water clearance but does not replace the safe use of windscreen wipers.
Graphene platelets produce a level of smoothness that conventional glass sealants do not reach, giving a contact angle high enough to clear the screen with airflow alone. The same property cuts the smearing complaints you get on winter jobs. The smart polymers also repair micro-damage within the coating, which helps it hold its performance over the full two years.
Where it earns its place: attached to every paint coating booking as a package item, as a standalone winter service in the run-up to the bad weather months, and as a fleet or company car offer where the safety argument does the selling for you. Covers windscreen, side glass, rear screen and panoramic roofs.
Glass prep is where this job succeeds or fails. Old rain repellents, wax overspray and silicone residue are all common and all fatal to the bond. Degrease with Glass Cleaner, never with Superior Glass, whose hydrophobic layer is exactly what the coating must not bond over.
- Hydrophobic performance from approximately 28 mph. Demonstrable on the first wet drive.
- Up to 2 years or around 18,000 miles, which covers the full two years for a typical UK driver.
- Resistance to road salt, UV exposure and chemicals from pH 2 to 13.
- Pairs with Skyline and Gravity in a complete exterior package.
- 15 ml covers the glass on a standard car. 50 ml covers up to six, subject to glass area.
