its been raining hard these days, and i notice that my wipers weren't working very well, streaks across.

so, i went to my local infiniti dealer and purchased couple inserts.

i put them in , and same outcome as what I had before

what is wrong?

 

It could be coating on the glass. Try some real strong glass cleaner. If it has been raining a lot, grease from the roadway makes it up onto your windshield and causes streaking and skipping. A goold solvent (avoid the paint) is Coca Cola. Put it on a sponge and clean the windshield with it and then rinse. Or some good glass wax. I use Rejex on my coupe on all surfaces including windhsield. It works great.

 

get some rain-x

 

Clean the glass very well first to get the grime off, then use Rain-X

 

Probably spray wax from a car wash. Coke works great. I generally use Coke first, PrepSol next, then Invisible Glass, then RainX.

 

windex won't work?

 

i just dont use them. i rain-x the hell out of my window

 

Industrial plastic wrap spool on one end of the windshield, an empty spool at the other. Connect them together like a 35mm camera and rotate the spools whenever it gets dirty/wet.

 

get some rain-x and some bosch icons or valeos

 

Rain-X works great but you have to get the other stuff off the glass before applying Rain-X.
