Discover the foolproof tip to keep your windshield wipers looking like new!

A simple and quick action can make all the difference in preserving the effectiveness of your wiper blades. Follow our advice for optimal visibility in all weathers.

The importance of windshield wipers

Windshield wiper blades are often the most forgotten parts of car maintenance. However, their role is essential to ensure good visibility and safe driving. Exposed to bad weather, to the sun, to the cold, these rubber parts wear out and degrade over time.

Signs of wear to look out for

Several clues should alert you to the condition of your windshield wipers:

  • Marks or streaks on the windshield
  • Squeaking or jumping
  • Frayed or torn broom edges
  • Don't wait until it's too late to act! Regular maintenance will extend the life of your windshield wipers.

    The tip for always impeccable brooms

    Here's how to keep your wiper blades looking like new:

  • Cleaning: Use a cloth dampened with vinegar to remove all dirt and residue accumulated on the brooms. Then rinse with clean water for perfect cleanliness.
  • Hydration: apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly over the entire length of the brooms. Leave on for 10 minutes, while the rubber soaks up this nourishing treatment. If necessary, wipe off excess with a dry cloth.
  • Repeat this operation once a month, for example when checking tire pressure. It only takes a few minutes to take care of your windshield wipers.

    Prevention is better than cure

    Regular maintenance will prevent you from having to replace your wiper blades prematurely. It's a worthwhile investment, for your safety and your wallet.

    So, don't forget this monthly appointment with your windshield wipers! Your windshield will thank you and you will enjoy the comfort of optimal visibility in rain or snow. Adopt this good habit now for brooms that are always operational!
