Don't Forget to Take Care of The Wipers in The Cold Winter

Many car owners know that they need to do a good job of car maintenance, but cars have many configurations and combined functions, so some car configurations are often overlooked, and wipers are one of them. The working environment of the wiper itself is very harsh. Facing the sun, cold winter, dust, etc., its life is limited. In addition, improper use and maintenance of the wiper will cause the rubber strip to be "injured" and unable to work properly, which will not only damage the front windshield, but also cause visual impairment to the driver, affecting driving safety. The following commercial vehicle modification company will talk about the precautions for taking care of the wipers:

1. How to choose and replace wiper blades
Wipers are not as frequently used as other configurations such as tires. They look small and simple, but the selection criteria are very delicate. A good wiper blade must be heat-resistant, cold-resistant, acid-resistant, corrosion-resistant, suitable for windshield, reduce the burden on the motor, low noise, strong drainage capacity, soft and scratch-free.
When choosing wiper blades, maintenance personnel recommend that you first choose the wiper blades that are suitable for your car and understand the specifications of the wiper blades used by your car. Secondly, pay attention to check whether the wiper is damaged, the elasticity of the rubber blade, and prevent the selection of unqualified wiper blades, such as blade hardening, cracking, etc.; check the wiper status, whether the wiper support rod swings unevenly or is missing, and prevent the wiper from swinging irregularly and running abnormally; after installation, carefully observe whether the wiper blade can fit the glass surface completely to ensure that there are no wiping residues and small streaks; pay attention to whether the wiper blade maintains a certain speed when moving.

2. There is a "secret script" for normal maintenance
To do a good job of maintaining the wiper, first of all, prevent "damage" from foreign objects.
The commercial vehicle modification company reminds car owners that during normal driving, small particles such as sand will stick to the wipers and windshields. At this time, it is easy to cause damage to the plane of the wiper blade, resulting in poor scraping. Usually, you can wipe the contact surface of the rubber strip with a soft cloth to remove the sand and dust attached to it, so that the wiper blades and windshield are well protected at the same time.
In addition, different weather also has different maintenance tips.

Wash the car as soon as possible after rainy days. The acidic components in rainwater can easily cause the rubber strip to age. When cleaning the ice and snow on the glass in winter, do not use the hard brush of the wiper blade to cause damage to the wiper blade. Change the tilt state of the contact surface of the rubber belt frequently to prevent deformation. When the wiper blade is not tight, it should be adjusted at a professional repair shop as soon as possible to avoid safety hazards.
The commercial vehicle modification company also recommends that car owners replace the wiper blades every six months to one year in addition to regular inspections. Car owners should develop a good habit of using the car in normal times. Never dry it. It is best to spray water before turning on the wipers, which is conducive to protecting the wiper blades. When the car is parked for a long time, you can use small things such as wooden strips to pad under the wipers to separate the wiper blades from the windshield and extend the service life of the wipers.
