My windshield and toll windows get annoying water streaks in the morning that are caused from condensate that collects on the roof and runs down on the windows. I polished the paint on the front section of the roof as it was very chalky and I am sure that had contributed to the residue left on the windows. I also did the Rain-X treatment to the windshield. This did not eliminate the water streaks. The problem is also compounded that it is parked down hill on a steep grade.
Is there some kind of rain gutter that could be installed to the front of the roof that would line up to the side rain gutters?

Next time you rainx your window glass, take 0000 steel wool, no water, and
really scour the glass. Wipe, and then apply the rainx. This process will
also remove ancient watermarking and keep just about everything from
adhering to the glass. Clean all the wax off the roof and reseal with 3 or
4 very thin coats of ZEP wet look floor wax.

If you want a white colored gutter there are 2 other options. Go to
the campingworld.com site and put in item # 16962 for ultra-white
gutter and item # 16960 for off-white gutter.
