If Properly Maintained, The Original Wiper Rubber Strip Can Have A Lifespan Of Up To 5 Years. Daily Maintenance Requires Timely Removal Of Fine Sand Particles On The Wiper Rubber Strip. If These Fine Sand Particles Are Not Removed, It Is Equivalent To Using A Grinding Wheel To Polish The Wiper Rubber Strip, And The Smoothness Will Quickly Decrease. The Rough Rubber Strip Will Definitely Not Be Able To Wipe Away Rainwater. Therefore, When Washing The Car, It Is Necessary To Personally Use A Clean Towel To Remove The Tiny Sand Particles On The Wiper Rubber Strip. In Addition, When Parking In Summer, Try Not To Expose Yourself To Direct Sunlight, As Rubber Products Are Most Sensitive To UV Radiation And Are Prone To Aging And Hardening.




If The Wipers Are Found To Be Unable To Clean Thoroughly, The Vast Majority Of Cases Are Caused By Improper Maintenance And Rough Rubber Strips Of The Wipers. In Fact, The Rubber Strips Have Not Aged Or Hardened. Just Find A Way To Polish The Rough Rubber Strip Smooth. Here's How To Restore The Wipers To Their Original Condition:




How To Restore The Wipers To Their Original Condition


1. First, Remove The Two Windshield Wipers


2. Prepare A Water Sandpaper

You Can Buy 2000 Grit Sandpaper At The Paint Shop. Tear The Sandpaper Into Small Pieces, And Use One Small Piece Each Time.


3. Soak The Wiper And Sandpaper In Clean Water


4. Polish The Rubber Strip Of The Wiper With Sandpaper And Water

Note That Not Only Should The Two Sides Of The Rubber Strip Be Polished, But Also The Front Of The Rubber Strip Should Be Polished Appropriately. The Time Should Be Controlled At Around 5 Minutes.




Precautions For Daily Maintenance Of Wipers


1. When Washing The Wiper, First Lift The Wiper And Rinse It Clean In The Direction Of The Rubber Strip With Light Force.


2. Do Not Replace Glass Water With Tap Water.


3. When The Vehicle Is Parked For A Long Time Or Parked In Hot Or Cold Weather, Please Lift The Wiper Arm.
