2 Windshield wiper questions
 

First question.

My stock windshield wiper fluid ran out and I replaced it with the cheap Walmart stuff. It sucks. What kind do you use?

Second question.

When my wipers move across the windshield they streak like a mofo. I cleaned the blades seperately using a washcloth with windshield wiper fluid on it, but they still streak. Does this happen to anyone else? It seems to be worse when there's only a little bit of water on my windshield and I turn them on. Sometimes it streaks so bad that I can barely see.

Thanks.

i use a little bit of dishwashing liquid and water !! LOL and i do mean a little bit !! not tyring to have a whole soapy as windshield!!

I just bought new wiper blades. Problem solved for $12.

For washer fluid I got some called apex from advance auto parts. Most of it is good if the freezing temp is -20 F or something.

I started using the rain-x windshield wiper fluid it works good but is a little spendy. you will notice that you use your windshield wipers less and there are a lot less bugs on your glass. as far as the streaking i have it too. i just haven't changed out the blades yet. i mostly get blade hopping from the bass produced in the trunk.

Get the Bosch Micro Edge Excel

apparently catz makes a all sillicon(sp?) blade and that is supposed to be the shit,no weather condition is supposed to affect it. check it out, or if someone has it then lemme know how it works

I heard those teflon blades are suposed to be really good. Yeah mine streaks like a Mofo too. Think im gonna have to get some new blades too.

How long to stock blades usually last anyways?

iunno, i would think that through a harsh winter they would be shit by summer, thats why people put in winter blades. i would assume tho that ours are both summer and winter.

i bought the silicon blades and i don't like em, they grab really bad when you glass is clean and they hop. i will go back to the normal higher quality regular blades next
