Cleaning windshield wiper blades is not a special process. Simply take a damp clothe and wipe them clean by pinching the clothe around the rubber blade and rubbing the length of the blade back and forth being careful not to rip the rubber especially at the ends. You will be able to feel the grit and your goal is to remove as much of it as possible. Keep in mind as the wipers get older, some of what you're feeling is actual pits and micro-tears in the rubber - not dirt or debris. Some may suggest alcohol or other cleaning solutions but be careful with these because they can prematurely age the rubber. Also note for best performance, that it may actually be more important to clean the glass than it is to clean the rubber blade. Cleaning both is a sure bet.

The following guide provides simple tips to install a new set of wiper blades.Measure the existing wiper blades installed on a vehicle.

Never install a wiper blade that is too large for a vehicle. This can put excessive strain on a wiper blade's motor.Old wiper blades are simple to remove. Lift the old wiper blades directly away from the windscreen. They should pivot on a 90 degree angle from the base of the blade. The back side of the wiper blade will have a small hinge attached by a spring. Lifting this hinge will allow the old wiper blade to be removed. Most blades will slide out of a slot after the hinge is removed.A new wiper blade should be installed the same way the old blade was removed. Slide the new wiper blade into the empty wiper blade slot. Attach the hinge assembly to the mirror using the spring latch. This will help ensure that the wiper blade can't move. Push the wiper blade back towards the vehicle, and test to make sure that it is securely in place. Never operate an improperly installed wiper blade -- this can result in wiper blade motor damage, windscreen scratches, and a damaged wiper blade assembly.Make sure to recycle old wiper blades when finished. Wiper blades are usually made from aluminum and rubber. Some auto repair shops will pay to recycle old wiper blades. This can be a great way to help the environment while saving money.
