1. Clean the wiper blades. Dirt, grime, and debris can build up on wiper blades over time, making them less effective at wiping away water. Clean the blades with a mild detergent and water, and dry them thoroughly.
2. Inspect the wiper blades for damage. If the blades are cracked, torn, or otherwise damaged, they will need to be replaced.
3. Adjust the wiper blades. If the wiper blades are not making good contact with the windshield, they will not be able to wipe away water effectively. Adjust the blades so that they are parallel to the windshield and make even contact across the entire length of the blade.
4. Apply a water repellent treatment. Water repellent treatments can help to improve the performance of wiper blades by reducing the amount of water that sticks to the windshield. Apply the treatment according to the package instructions.
5. Replace the wiper blades regularly. Wiper blades should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, or more often if they are used frequently in harsh weather conditions.
By following these tips, you can help to rejuvenate your windshield wiper blades and keep your windshield clear and safe.
