In June, I purchased new Rain X Water Repellancy wiper blades for my car. They were good at first. The water repellancy was great and they made no streaks.
However recently, Ive noticed that they streak kinda badly. If I use the orange Rain X washer fluid during a wash cycle, The blades will leave a thick "coating" like streak on my windshield. Eventually it fades after a minute, But it is kind of annoying.
Normally in this case, Id take a rag and clean any buildup on the wiper blades. However, these particular blades have a "coating" on them and I think that if I tried to clean them, ill just wipe off the coating that made the blades more expensive.
What should I do? I love how the water beads up when it rains, and don't want to get rid of that. Im not sure, but is the water repellancy the same with just the orange Rain X fluid? Or does having the Rain X blades provide more water beading?
