My windshield has a lot of micro-pitting, so it tends to have modes wiper performance no matter what brand I try...and I have tried many. It also wears out the wiper quickly.
I know...I should replace the windshield, but I only plan on keeping the car for another year or two.
So, I frequently scrub the windshield with Stoner's (the stuff actually works) and change wipers every few months.
I just placed a set of Trico Exact-fits, and I must say that they do wipe very well, even on my trashed windshield. I notice that they seem to have a stronger spring than the others I have tried, so maybe that is what helps their performance...
