- Some people choose to do this to prevent the wipers from freezing to the car, and to make it easier to clean the windshield.
- I disagree 100% with these people. All this does it allow ice to collect all over the wipers, makeing them difficult to clean. The first thing I do when cleaning my car is to turn it on, full heat, with defroster on. I then clean the top/rest of my car. By the time I get to the windshield, the wiper area would be melted. I can then lift the wipers and clean the windshield, and my wiper blades do not have a spec of ice on them, so they wont streak all over the windshield. Try using your wipers after leaving them up, and the blades dont even touch the glass, ice does. Clean them off? You risk chipping the (rubber) blade, since its frozen and covered in ice.
