I have been a huge fan of our PIAA Super Silicone wiper blades for some time. Last night after a large bug made a valiant effort to get through my windshield I was washing things up. and want to show why. JUST last week I ran through a construction zone that splattered tar all up the front of my truck. I had to use Laquer Thinner to clean it all off the windshield and I followed it up by 50/50 alcohol and water and then finally Windex. So, at that point I knew it was as clean as it could be and the initial silicone treatment that comes with the blades was removed. After just a week of wiper use you can clearly see the blades have re-deposited a new thin layer of silicone back onto the window to repel water JUST like they claim. Very cool.
You don't have to tell me. I've been running them for 4 years. My only compliant is they don't sell that packet of silicone/alcohol separately. I'd love to have a few wipes to refresh them every so often.
What ever happened to being able to buy a pair of windshield wipers?

The real answer is actually a question too, why do so many cars use two different length wipers? A lot of applications will use two different lengths on the front and possibly a much longer on the rears. The common denominator to see everyone what they need is to sell them individually.
