Also if your windshield is pitted (like mine is) the blades may only last about a year. Also if your in an area with lots of dust/sand/dirt. I usually run AMCO? blades but will try some of those silicone blades next time even if they cost more. If they last longer it may be worth it. Anyhow, blades are cheap compared to bent metal. -- DougW |

What all the air pollution doesn't do to the poor babies, ordinary old sunlight will do. Sometimes you can rejuvenate them by taking an abrasive household cleanser [or 600 grit wet-or-dry sandpaper] to the edges every month or so. The silicon variety stay soft longer, but even those wear in a coupla years and also benefit from carefully exposing new rubber on their business edges. -- Fan of the dumbest team in America. |
