Soft99 Rain Drop Tornado Vortex

Advanced rain-repellent protection for your paintwork, glass and exterior plastics. SOFT99 Rain Drop Tornado Vortex is the next evolution of the popular Rain Drop “Bazooka”, combining fast application with enhanced hydrophobic protection across multiple exterior surfaces.

Featuring SOFT99's newly developed Tornado Vortex Head (TV Head), Rain Drop Tornado Vortex is designed to make application faster and easier. Simply spray and wipe to activate the G-RAS Shield Effect, leaving behind a high-gloss, highly water-repellent protective layer.

Unlike products designed specifically for paintwork, Rain Drop Tornado Vortex can be used across the vehicle's bodywork, exterior glass, plastic and chrome surfaces, allowing multiple exterior surfaces to be protected with a single product.

Key Features

• 5 Months of Paint Protection – Provides deep shine and hydrophobic protection on the vehicle's bodywork for up to 5 months.
• 3 Months of Glass Rain Repellency – Helps rainwater bead and move away from exterior glass, improving wet-weather visibility.
• G-RAS Shield Effect – Advanced technology designed to provide enhanced water repellency and surface protection.
• Tornado Vortex Head – Newly developed spray head designed to improve application speed and ease of use.
• Wet-Application Technology – Designed to be sprayed directly onto wet surfaces after washing.
• Multi-Surface Protection – Suitable for vehicle bodywork, glass, exterior plastics and chrome.
• Spray & Wipe Application – Fast and straightforward application without the need for specialist equipment.
• Refillable System – When the product is empty, the Tornado Vortex Head can be removed and fitted to a large-volume refill cartridge.

One Product. Multiple Exterior Surfaces.

Rain Drop Tornado Vortex is designed to simplify vehicle protection by allowing the same product to be used across a wide range of exterior surfaces.

• Paintwork: Adds deep gloss and hydrophobic protection.
• Exterior Glass: Provides rain-repellent properties to help water move away from the glass.
• Plastic: Provides protective water-repellent properties to suitable exterior plastic surfaces.
• Chrome: Can be applied to suitable exterior chrome surfaces.
• Grilles: Can be applied by spraying onto a microfibre cloth before wiping the surface.
• Wheels: Can be applied to suitable wheel surfaces by spraying onto a cloth and wiping.

G-RAS Shield Effect

Rain Drop Tornado Vortex uses SOFT99's G-RAS Shield Effect to deliver enhanced water-repellent performance. Once applied, the treatment creates a hydrophobic surface that encourages water to bead and run away from the treated surface.

On paintwork, the treatment provides a combination of deep gloss and hydrophobic protection, while on exterior glass it provides dedicated rain-repellent performance.

Tornado Vortex Head

The newly developed Tornado Vortex Head (TV Head) is a major feature of this latest-generation Rain Drop formula. The spray system is designed to increase the speed and ease of application, allowing the product to be distributed efficiently across the vehicle.

The system is also designed with sustainability and convenience in mind. Once the 300mL cartridge is empty, the TV Head can be removed and transferred to the compatible large-volume refill cartridge.

Important Application Notes

• Glass before body: Always apply the product to glass before treating the vehicle body.
• Do not over-apply: Apply evenly and wipe immediately. Excess product can increase the chance of unevenness or residue.
• If streaks or unevenness occur: Thoroughly wash and wring out a microfibre towel, then repeat the wiping process.
• Dry-surface application: If applying to a dry surface, wet and wring out the microfibre towel before use.
• Grilles and wheels: Do not spray directly onto these areas. Spray the product onto a cloth and wipe the surface instead.

Curing & Water Exposure

For optimum coating performance, avoid getting the vehicle wet after application.

• Summer: Avoid wetting the vehicle for at least 1 hour after application.
• Winter: Avoid wetting the vehicle for at least 24 hours after application.

Keeping the treated surfaces dry during this initial period helps the protective treatment establish properly and improves its overall performance.

Temperature Considerations

Temperature can affect the performance and application characteristics of aerosol-based products. SOFT99 provides specific recommendations for extreme conditions:

• Above 35°C: Cool the can in water for several minutes before use.
• Cold conditions: Warm the can in tepid water before use.

Why Choose Rain Drop Tornado Vortex?

For enthusiasts looking for a fast and convenient way to protect their vehicle, Rain Drop Tornado Vortex offers an impressive combination of speed, versatility and hydrophobic performance.

Rather than requiring separate products for paintwork and exterior glass, Rain Drop Tornado Vortex is designed to provide protection across multiple exterior surfaces. Its wet-application process also means there is no need to completely dry the vehicle before protection is applied.

The result is a quick and practical protection step that can be incorporated directly into your normal vehicle washing routine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Rain Drop Tornado Vortex be applied to a wet car?

Yes. Wet-surface application is one of the key advantages of Rain Drop Tornado Vortex. After washing and rinsing, the product can be sprayed onto the wet surface and immediately wiped with a clean, dry microfibre towel.

Can I use it on glass?

Yes. Rain Drop Tornado Vortex is designed to provide rain-repellent protection on exterior glass, with SOFT99 stating up to 3 months of rain repellency. Glass should be treated before the vehicle body.

Can I use it on plastic?

Yes. The product is designed for use on suitable exterior plastic surfaces as well as bodywork and glass.

Can I use it on wheels and grilles?

Yes. For wheels and grilles, SOFT99 recommends spraying the product onto a cloth and then wiping the surface rather than spraying directly onto these areas.

How long should I keep the vehicle dry after application?

SOFT99 recommends avoiding wetting the treated surfaces for at least 1 hour in summer and 24 hours in winter to improve coating performance.

What happens if I get an uneven finish?

Thoroughly wash and wring out a microfibre towel, then repeat the wiping process over the affected area. Ensuring the product is wiped immediately and evenly will also help prevent unevenness.

1. Wash the vehicle: Thoroughly wash and rinse the vehicle to remove dirt, dust and other surface contamination.
2. Keep the vehicle wet: Rain Drop Tornado Vortex is designed for application to a wet surface.
3. Shake the can: While the can remains locked, shake approximately 20 times before use.
4. Apply to glass first: SOFT99 recommends treating the exterior glass before moving onto the vehicle body.
5. Spray evenly: Spray the product evenly over the wet surface at approximately 2 seconds per square metre.
6. Wipe immediately: Immediately spread and remove the product using a clean, dry microfibre towel.
7. Refold the towel: Refold the microfibre regularly to expose a clean, dry section as you work.
8. Continue around the vehicle: Work methodically across the glass and bodywork until all desired surfaces have been treated.
