I know this is a strange topic in probably the wrong thread, but I'm getting tired of replacing windshield wipers.
Last winter I flushed and cleaned out my windshield washer fluid system with Rain-X washer fluid-->Orange .... and replaced the wipers with also rain-X brand. After about 2 months... the rubber wipers started to slowy tear and rip... I did use the washer fluid alot... during the first couple months of winter...Dec-Jan. I replaced the blades and filled with Rain-X fluid... It wasn't but 2 months and I had to replace my passenger side again.... now just last week... I replaced my driverside wiper... the rubber was tore and getting worse.
I do usually use the wiper fluid around 3 times a week... But I was curious is others have used the Rain-X washer fluid with these same results? Or maybe these Rain-X wiper blades are just that pi$$ poor.
What wiper blades do you prefer or have had great success with... and well as washer fluid... I'm about done with these Rain-X products... I do like there glass treatment ... Going down the highway, and hardly ever have to use the blades, in a rain storm..
Mods feel free to move this topic, since it's probably not in the right thread.
I was beginning to think there was something in the Rain-X washer fluid that was eating the rubber, on these new blades?
