I'm pretty sure Rain x is alcohol based so it's going to ruin any existing lens treatment if you use it, but if the scope doesn't have any to begin with then nothing to lose haha. I learnt the hard way when I was young that scope coatings don't agree with window cleaner lol

Bushnell elite, rain guard. Not a caps suggestion as such but has saved the day on numerous soggy, humid days for me where mates couldnt see a thing through far more expensive scopes.

Ha, read that and immediately thought, "Yay, a spray on solution!", but no, you have to buy the scope with the feature. Bugger! But I'll keep it on mind next time I'm persuade to buy a new scope. Meantime....
