Sooner or later, any windshield wipers will start to smear the dirt that has got on the windshield of the car, rather than wiping it away. You can deal with this problem in different ways, although not all of them are equally effective. In most cases, only a thoughtful, consistent and comprehensive approach can save the car and its windshield, which will eliminate the very essence of the problem.
There are only two reasons for poorly performing windshield wipers: trouble with the rubber band and trouble with the spring. Sometimes problems appear at the same time, as a result of which the wipers may stop performing their work, remaining in a state where they are hardly able to curb the rainwater flowing onto glass. It is even worse when the spring in the windshield wiper leashes stretches and loses its working qualities. Both troubles are problems that need to be addressed.
Rubber band problems
There are two ways to solve gum problems. The first is expensive but reliable. The second is budgetary and compromise. With the first method, everything should be very clear - we go to the store, buy new wiper blades there, put them on and drive happy.
The second method is not so good and is associated with additional work, but it will save you money. It is necessary to trim the worn-off layer of elastic. This can be done both with the use of improvised means, and with the help of a special (and inexpensive) device. Some brushes can be cut several times, significantly extending their service life.
Spring problems
You can also solve the problem with the wiper guides in one of two ways. The first solution lies literally on the surface and will be the best available - you need to go to automotive store and purchase new leashes there, and then install them on automobile. The only problem is that they cost about 3.5 thousand rubles apiece.

The second way to solve the problem is much cheaper, however, it is essentially temporary if the workers wipers are needed right now, and the opportunity and time to deal with replacing the leashes at this moment no. The springs can be "cured" by putting on ordinary plastic ties. They will be able to withstand the load for a long time and will significantly improve the performance of the wipers by constantly tightening the loose spring of the leash.
Of course, in the matter of the spring of the wipers, it is much more important to remember the rules for their operation. In order for the leashes to serve as long as possible, it is not necessary to lift the wipers at night in winter, and it is also not recommended to abuse the service mode of the wipers.
