Tips to keep car rearview mirrors from getting wet from rain, surprising effects

According to a video posted by the British website The Sun, simply cutting a potato in half and rubbing the inside on surfaces such as mirrors and glass will create a protective layer and help prevent water from accumulating on these surfaces, ensuring good visibility for drivers even in heavy rain.

Experts explain that potatoes contain many substances that repel water. When raindrops from outside hit these substances, they will be washed away like the potato leaf effect. In addition to potatoes, you can replace them with toothpaste or baking soda.
