5 Tips To Take Care Of Your Car’s Windshield Wipers – Monsoon Car Care

Wiper blades are among the most overlooked car parts despite being very important yet relatively affordable and easy to replace. Furthermore, many car owners neglect to replace wiper blades at proper intervals.

During rain, the rubber part of the wiper blade wipes the windscreen to clear the water and improve vision. However, this rubber part will wear down over time or may get damaged due to other factors. As such, here are 5 tips to take care of your car's wiper blade.

Clean The Windshield

Since the windshield remains exposed, dirt and other foreign particles may accumulate on it. When the wiper is turned on, this dirt also gets wiped against the windshield. This not only causes scratches on the windshield but also damages the wiper blades.

In such cases, it is better to clear the windscreen before using the wiper. If there is only a negligible quantity of dust, it is even safe to use washer and wiper as well. The latter sprays a small quantity of water and uses wipers to wipe away the dust.

Exposure

Speaking about exposure, it is possible to significantly increase the life of wiper blades by parking the car in shades or covered parking. This will reduce UV exposure on the rubber part of the wiper blade and keeps the rubber part of the wiper blade soft and flexible.

Using Mild Detergents

Since the wiping part of the wiper is made of rubber, using strong detergents can have a negative effect on the life of the wiper blades. As such, it is recommended to use mild detergents to clean your car's windshield as this will help reduce damage to the wiper blades.
