Can I use nail paint removal alcohol?

[@ddlmao3504]

Hey, where do you live?

[@zaceryhammond1144]

Wd40 is not a lubricant spraying that on the hinge will do nothing if you need to do it take a tiny bit of moter oil and sparingly use it

[@teleguy2650]

Wow, I've never seen a counter top or cabinets in a garage that clean.

[@TNtoolman]

I have about 40 years experience in wiper development, testig, and production. Your video is spot on. I was concerned when you mentioned WD-40 because I have seen videos showing to clean the bades with WD-40. It is petroleum based and will eat at the natural rubber squeegee. Great use of it on the wiper arm base.
We do use #0000 steel wool and glass cleaner on our windshields in the test bucks. NO MORE COARSE than #0000, it could scratch the glass. Use a swirling motion then dry off with a towel or paper towel.
Great job... everything you suggested is totally correct...

You say the WD40 will break down the rubber but others on here have commented on their great results with cleaning their blades with it, and managing to keep the same set of blades for years with that trick. So there seems to be some discrepancy...

[@terrasini1]

@@hydnars funny I was just thinking the same.... So I actually do not know if I should use IPA to clean and then WD40 to preserve (I am talking about the rubber part only)... Otherwise I saw many videos of PTO and I must say he definitely knows what he is talking about...

[@mikedoherty5180]

I use denatured alcohol to clean the blade. I allow it to evaporate completely. Next I spray some rubber safe silicon spray lube on a cloth, again allow the solvents to evaporate, then wipe the blade rubber this helps keep the blade soft, ice dose not stick as hard and helps prevent blade chatter.

[@23dothedew]

[@mebrannon1]

Pan is always here for us

[@MyGuyKirby]

Pan, glad to see you and I doing the same methods. Two points that need more understanding are the use of the rubbing alcohol and WD40. I have heard that regular rubber can be affected by the alcohol but it does clean them! Also I have started to use wife’s cheap facial pads instead of MF towel, that junk then is trashed rather than staining my towels. Next is the use of WD40, it is not a lubricant and should be wiped up as it does attract dust. Interesting read on what WD40 is on Wikipedia en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WD-40. It is great product used correctly. Try TriFlow as a lubricant as it dries cleanly and does not attract grime. Perfect time for this topic on wipers with so much use this time of year. Thanks.

[@04hemi]

Trifle is amazing superior and who doesn't love the smell of oranges

[@LKN4WAR]

Thanks pan. Did the wd40 on the fly tonight in a parking lot and hit the wet windshield with some formula 4 spay wax 1:10 dilution and wiped if off a bit like a drying aid even though it’s raining. Lol. 90 percent improvement on my cheap blades. 👍

[@cheftodd]

I pinch my blades with some sandpaper and it works great, I will have to try this trick

[@firebolt2310]

Thanks for the tips keep up the good work

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks!

[@anthonybaker8626]

I found using a plastic/rubber restoring product to really help out alot. I use VRP from chemical guys and working it into the rubber of the blade, restores the flexibility and wiping ability of the blade.

[@aesaphyr]

I know you wrote this comment many years ago but I'm wondering how well VRP holds up with the rain, being a water-based product?

[@NeverMetTheGuy]

Good stuff, my brother.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks!

[@a.r.walker6255]

I usually clean my blades whenever I wash my vehicle.

[@SkodaHobbybob]

I let the rain clean my wipers and I buy new ones every year or so ( why bothe for 13 euros? )

[@a.r.walker6255]

@@SkodaHobbybob Well....Dirty wipers aren't as effective as clean ones.

[@user-lf2iy5yu9v]

If you have new blades, then you probably can’t wipe them off, because most modern blades are made with graphite spraying

[@martin1649]

that's a good habit.

[@xFlared]

@@SkodaHobbybob Rain doesn't clean your wipers. That part that's always in contact with your windshield, it will stay dirty and just spread dirt around when in function, in process collecting more dirt. When do you think blades get dirty? During function. And when do they function? When the windshield is wet. Therefore you thinking that rain cleans your wipers is completely incorrect since it's the primary reason they get dirty in the first place.

[@clifficus]

Never knew about rubbing alcohol, perfect job, what a difference, amazing, thanks for sharing, BTW my tip is to check the the wiper blade (via the arm) is sitting at a perfect 90° to the glass surface, if not, a gentle twist of the arm will correct that, blade will now not ‘shudder’ thanks for sharing. 😃👍

[@jameskoralewski1006]

I'd be a little leery about using alcohol on rubber wiper blades. Alcohol dries out rubber and could cause them to eventually crack. However, alcohol would probably work well on wiper blades made from silicone.

[@davidisaacson9328]

Just use the soap you wash the vehicle with. No alcohol needed!👍BTW-I do this every time I wash the vehicle...and haven't replaced them in 16 seasons(4 years).

[@mikeanderson7729]

Great video. Always good to have important skills that are also really cheap for the car owner. Everyone likes to save a buck and this tip is way cheaper than new blades. Btw, IPA and rubbing alcohol are not the same. IPA is 91% alcohol and rubbing alcohol is no more than 72%. Clean with IPA and disinfect with rubbing alcohol.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks Mike! Good to know.

[@davidisaacson9328]

Isopropyl rubbing alcohol starts at a minimum dilution ratio of 50% isopropyl/ 50% water and goes as high of a dilution ratio of 99% isopropyl/1% water. They are all "rubbing" alcohols, in differing concentrations.

[@ceramiccoatingpro7993]

Great video ! Thanks

[@flat4-]

I’m a window cleaner by profession for over 30 years, let me say that once the edge of the rubber/silicon is gone, then it is gone and you need to replace. You can buy rubber or silicon profile for windshield wipers on bulk, just like we buy replacement squeegee bands. Nothing fancy and much cheaper. Although after some years the wiper blade holder needs also replacing when it starts to deteriorate. I learnt that it’s not worth after 9/12 months and just replace the wiper.

I tried this on some of my Rain-X blades that were maybe 8 months old (it's rained 3x here in Southern California since I put them on), it's mostly just fairly dry and hot. It was like wiping a marker. I gave up after one micro-fiber towel and like 2-3 shop towels per wiper blade kept coming back nearly as black as when I started, and on each of those I probably used 6-8 different sections on each microfiber towel or shop towel. I'm not sure if it's the type of rubber, if there's really that much caked on there, or if the rubber itself was being broken down by the IPA, but I gave up after about 15 minutes of wiper blade scrubbing. One blade did seem quite a bit better, the other a tad, but not a huge difference.

[@lizc731]

Will have to try this.
Also, 5:00 was sooo satisfying.

[@wharpig]

I usually wash the blades with my wash rag when washing my cars but I do this when needed, defiantly helps as long as the blade itself is not actually worn our or torn.

[@zigarooSJunk]

another trick as i saw this elsewhere on the net. Since I wanted to go to Montreal Car show (2hr drive) and knowing it would be a snowy/slushy day for driving, since my wipers were a bit crappy (streaking), i just used WD-40 on a cloth and rubbed it on wiper for cleaning. Wow did that ever work well, no need to clean winshield either. Pan you should try it.
