I use RainX directly on the lens in wet weather. Like on the Go-Kart track when a lot of spay is coming off the wheels.
Don’t use it on the housing - I only use the housing in the surf.
In the snow I find the shape of Drift forces water and snow to fall off since it is glass and free of dirt. Drift doesn’t need a housing.
I’m also well practiced at checking the lens for snow but find it’s unnecessary with Drift.Currently I don’t have any RainX otherwise I would use it all the time. In the past I’ve also used WD40, Bugoff, shaving cream and even rub on snowboard wax! All with good results.
I also have some oldschool lens cleaner that I use on my pricier lenses/cameras.
RainX would probably work on goggles too.
Funny that the footage that Dylan took with ozgirl’s Drift had moisture on the lens then?????
Rain-X is also great for the surf as its main function is to make water bead off surfaces!!!!!
The Ran-X works by filling small depressions (pores) in the surface of glass and plastic forming a slick surface, and this is what prevents the water from poolin on the surface!!!!!
Although with my very limited knowledge of photography this is only my opinion!!!!!
I do however know that this product does work overseas as I have been to both Canada and Japan!!!!! Can’t speak for the other 190 odd countries though, so maybe my opinion is worthless about this too?????

I was waiting for you to comment that!
I would blame the operator rather than the camera for that one. And it was on the outside not the inside.
He got some great footage yesterday and stacked it a few times and snow was everywhere but it fell right off.

Who else would ya blame when snow gets onto the lens????? And how would it get inside?????
