    also, periodically wipe them with a clean paper towel soaked in rubbing
    alcohol, or an alcohol pad, it will bring your wipers back to life.

    Yes ,all great points,everyear I contemplate to buy those rubber
    inclosed blades,the kind that keep ice off the blade from forming,I do
    wipe them of w/a paper towel,but never used alcohol,bring on that
    winter!.

    those are winter blades and I leave them on all year. They definetly
    ork in the snow.. they on't get all blocked up. I use only avvco
    blades and am very happy. The top notch ones I got at advance auto
    parts (cost more) I took off in 2 weeks and tossed them. They were too
    stiff an noisy. Thye were the ones with he multi blades tri
    something.. just a gimmick

    Yea, a gimmick that can ruin your windshield! Mine got a small stone
    cought in between the blades and put a perminant scratch on my
    windshield.
