Default Wiper Blades



Both my Jeep and my Mustang have this problem and they both have Bosch blades that were replaced about one year ago. They leave streaks in the form of dropplets. I usually wash them at the same time I wash them, and on the jeep I even tried 1000 grit sandpaper on them. I live in Washington state, so it is not like they are dryrotted, I have to use them 6 days of the week because the weather SUCKS. They should last longer right.......</P>
