    I have about 40 years experience in wiper development, testig, and production. Your video is spot on. I was concerned when you mentioned WD-40 because I have seen videos showing to clean the bades with WD-40. It is petroleum based and will eat at the natural rubber squeegee. Great use of it on the wiper arm base.
    We do use #0000 steel wool and glass cleaner on our windshields in the test bucks. NO MORE COARSE than #0000, it could scratch the glass. Use a swirling motion then dry off with a towel or paper towel.
    Great job... everything you suggested is totally correct...

    I use denatured alcohol to clean the blade. I allow it to evaporate completely. Next I spray some rubber safe silicon spray lube on a cloth, again allow the solvents to evaporate, then wipe the blade rubber this helps keep the blade soft, ice dose not stick as hard and helps prevent blade chatter.

  • @MyGuyKirby

    Pan, glad to see you and I doing the same methods. Two points that need more understanding are the use of the rubbing alcohol and WD40. I have heard that regular rubber can be affected by the alcohol but it does clean them! Also I have started to use wife’s cheap facial pads instead of MF towel, that junk then is trashed rather than staining my towels. Next is the use of WD40, it is not a lubricant and should be wiped up as it does attract dust. Interesting read on what WD40 is on Wikipedia en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WD-40. It is great product used correctly. Try TriFlow as a lubricant as it dries cleanly and does not attract grime. Perfect time for this topic on wipers with so much use this time of year. Thanks.

    I’m a window cleaner by profession for over 30 years, let me say that once the edge of the rubber/silicon is gone, then it is gone and you need to replace. You can buy rubber or silicon profile for windshield wipers on bulk, just like we buy replacement squeegee bands. Nothing fancy and much cheaper. Although after some years the wiper blade holder needs also replacing when it starts to deteriorate. I learnt that it’s not worth after 9/12 months and just replace the wiper.

  • @clifficus
    @clifficus 4 роки тому +4

    Never knew about rubbing alcohol, perfect job, what a difference, amazing, thanks for sharing, BTW my tip is to check the the wiper blade (via the arm) is sitting at a perfect 90° to the glass surface, if not, a gentle twist of the arm will correct that, blade will now not ‘shudder’ thanks for sharing. 😃👍

    • @jameskoralewski1006
      @jameskoralewski1006 3 роки тому +1

      I'd be a little leery about using alcohol on rubber wiper blades. Alcohol dries out rubber and could cause them to eventually crack. However, alcohol would probably work well on wiper blades made from silicone.

That part that's always in contact with your windshield, it will stay dirty and just spread dirt around when in function, in process collecting more dirt. When do you think blades get dirty? During function. And when do they function? When the windshield is wet. Therefore you thinking that rain cleans your wipers is completely incorrect since it's the primary reason they get dirty in the first place.

I use to work in apartment maintenance would get a work order for squeaky door hinge, would go spray WD on them. Then a few weeks later would get another work order for the same thing same apartment. After the rep told me WD was not a lub, I started using good old 3in1 oil, never got called back again.

      Last winter I didn’t put my wipers up and my windscreen got covered with snow and ice, as I got in the car and started it the wipers automatically turned on because of the snow and Ice on the windscreen and I completely forgot to switch auto off and it ripped both rubbers off my wipers blades. Luckily I have a auto shop near me so £35 later I had new blades, only to sell the car the week after 🤣

    I’d remove the blades, degrease with optimum power clean at 3:1 then wipe with a towel. Then use Pans methods, as alcohol isn’t as effective at degreasing rubber. Never thought about the WD40 though Pan. I’ll try the penetrating oil I have in stock. Haven’t serviced the hinges in 9yrs.

    another trick as i saw this elsewhere on the net. Since I wanted to go to Montreal Car show (2hr drive) and knowing it would be a snowy/slushy day for driving, since my wipers were a bit crappy (streaking), i just used WD-40 on a cloth and rubbed it on wiper for cleaning. Wow did that ever work well, no need to clean winshield either. Pan you should try it.

    First of all Big Fan; I have a question: Can I correct deep scratches on clear coat with menzerna 400 heavy cut?? Or do I need wet sanding? Actually both flatten clear coat, so the mechanism is same. If I stand longer on the scratch with polishing machine it should be gone right?

    A good no non-sense tip! I do the same thing as a finish step when cleaning my wind shield either at home with a microfiber cloth or at the fuel station when doing a quick clean-up. I take a paper towl and dip it into the window washing fluid that gas stations make available. Regular cleaning of the wipers seems to keep things running smoothly. What's the difference between using clean water and a microfiber cloth v. a 'high quality glass cleaner' and cloth? I get pretty good results with the water, especially if I've treated the glass with RainX, previously.

    I tried this on some of my Rain-X blades that were maybe 8 months old (it's rained 3x here in Southern California since I put them on), it's mostly just fairly dry and hot. It was like wiping a marker. I gave up after one micro-fiber towel and like 2-3 shop towels per wiper blade kept coming back nearly as black as when I started, and on each of those I probably used 6-8 different sections on each microfiber towel or shop towel. I'm not sure if it's the type of rubber, if there's really that much caked on there, or if the rubber itself was being broken down by the IPA, but I gave up after about 15 minutes of wiper blade scrubbing. One blade did seem quite a bit better, the other a tad, but not a huge difference.

    Thank you Pan! Question: What windshield washer fluid do you recommend? And what to stay away from, if any? Me, I am having the worst time with my windshield. When I got it new, about 7 months ago now, I used Invisible Glass Cleaner that had a ceramic going in it. I followed the instructions to the letter, but I have had nothing but misery ever since. I called Invisible Glass and they told me I must have gotten a bad batch and they would send me their glass stripper. So I used the glass stripper and it's not better. It's hard to describe what it looks like when wet, it's just streaky and spotted and does not repel water. Oh and for windshield fluid I have been using RainX brand. Please help thank you!
