3. When should Flat Wiper Blades be replaced?

If the wipers have been used for 1-2 years, it is recommended that you replace them in time. At this time, the wiper rubber strips have begun to age after one or two years of wind and sun.

Determine whether the Flat Wiper Blades can wipe the rain off the windshield, especially when it is drizzling and the windshield is blurry after being wiped.

Gently lift the wiper and observe whether the rubber strips of the Flat Wiper Blades have cracks or cracks. If there are cracks or wrinkles, they need to be replaced.

Whether the Flat Wiper Blades make noise during operation. If the noise is getting louder, they need to be replaced with new ones.

In addition, car owners should pay attention not to dry-wipe the glass and clean the Flat Wiper Blades more often, which can extend the service life of the Flat Wiper Blades. If it is found that the Flat Wiper Blades cannot be wiped clean in the early stage, you can use fine sandpaper to polish it and see if it is still not clean after polishing, then you can replace it.

It should be noted that some car owners like to buy extended Flat Wiper Blades when replacing them, thinking that this will have a better scraping effect. In fact, this is wrong. Because if the Flat Wiper Blades are too long, they will rub against the front windshield to make abnormal noise when in use, so it is right to buy the size that suits your car model.
