How to Make Windshield Wiper Blades Like NEW in 30 Seconds ?
Let's check out my quick experiment and see the result at the end of this video.
There are at least 10 amazing WD-40 Uses for Your Car, Truck and Automobile/
But can WD 40 restore your wiper blades, really ?
This is a real life test with my own car 's wiper blade who knows how many donkey years it had on this car.
So this is definitely a real life true test with honest review and real results.
If you really want to know if WD-40 can help save you dollars on a wiper blade, watch this. Perhaps it does save you money, or perhaps you're better off getting a new blade ?

I think it is because Google says to never use wd40 for wipers, as it leaves streaks. Not sure if it does, but I imagine that is why the thumbs down.

This make so much sense, thank you. So I found that when I blast the windscreen with the heater on full heat the noise begins to stop but after a while comes back as heater is turned off, so softening the blades with heat will work as this will allow the blade to flow rather than push against. Also this is a brand new car with brand new wipers could also be standard of blade.

Using WD40 or any type of alcohol is a bad choice. Here's why. The rubber wipers are impregnated with a coating or graphite from the factory so they don't "screech" when in motion. Using WD40 or alchol removes most (if not all) of the carbon - that's why there is so much black stuff on your cloth. A better idea is to use a moist micro fibre cloth and wipe the blades gently to remove any foreign objects or grease. Then clean your window with a quality automotive window cleaner that is ammonia free. You may have to clean the window a number of times. Good luck.

@BOEINGMAX-nn6ku Жыл бұрын

Absolutely correct. The alcohol also dries out the wiper blade. I don’t know how often I have read this “use rubbing alcohol”. After you used it you can directly buy new blades

That noise come from old rough rubber and maybe because some graphite coating was removed. Anyway, after cleaning of blades and widshield you can shave the blades with a specual cuting device like Ecocut Pro to reveal a better smooth rubber surface for best results reducing squeaking noise. Thos is a possible solution, but some reviewers had bad experiences with Ecocut Pro.

@John-gm8ty 2 жыл бұрын

the WD40 needs to be used from the first install of new blades and reapplied about once a month. the other half of this equation is you need to wax your glass at the same time. this reduces drag and crates beading of the rain water and also adds lubrication for the blade. the main reason for the WD40 is to coat the rubber to act as part lubrication and to seal the rubber so it doesn't oxidise as fast, extending the blade life out to several years longer than would otherwise be the case. you can't "recondition": oxidised and worn rubber. you need to protect it from the start.

@WhittyPics 2 жыл бұрын

WD-40 is a penetrating lub., you need to let it sip into the rubber at some point. That's the reason it says don't use of rubber or seal because it will make them expand. For wiper may be different case because the wiper arm have spring to press it onto the wind screen surface.

With the cost of new windshields being so high now it's wiser to not mess with wipers and just replace with refills at least every 12 months. Why risk having your glass scratched? Depending on your conditions, a quick clean of the wipers every few weeks should keep them in good working order. Thanks for the video.

I've used this for 20 years. Works well. I have found though that silicone spray works better.

Ok. I'm not an expert, but if you look closely at the video at about 2 .45, just before he turns on the wiper, the water on the glass disappears before the blade even gets to yet

I don't intend to make a deceiving video to waste my time. Yes there was no water on the glass when I started the wiper but I kept spraying water from 2:45 min until 3:15 min and the sound was still heard despite wetting it continuously. Thanks for that observations though. :)

I did this and ruined the blades. They deteriorated. All they did was streak for the next few months. Bought new ones of good quality.

WD40 contains petroleum products namily oil, you want to clean a windscreen then saturate a rubber product with oil and smear that all over your windscreen.. NICE LOGIC

Totaly worse. Besides wiper blades like BOSCH have graphite coating on them and you never clean them, because you remove the coating that protects the rubber from the elements.
