how are they used, in place of regular wipers blades?
if so, how long does the maker claim they last?
at what cost over using a squeegee, sponge and some water with soap? -
Do they scratch the windshield? I know glass is hard, BUT it can be damaged.

Especially in the winter because they clean the snow off much better than the cheap blades.
They're pricy but they're worth it because they definitely lasted over a year and a half.
They don't remove the slimy bugs but they do remove the bugs that aren't. If you use Rain X windshield fluid, that plus the scrub blades will definitely clean the slime from bugs.Last edited: Aug 28, 2016

Theyre sold at Loves. I looked at them and they have little ribs/scrubbers on rubber blade itself so when it moves across windshield it theoretically should scrub away debri.
-
Do they make them for freightliner?
I'd give them a whirl if they do. Currently using a towel and my hand when it raining. Still works better than the regular wipers on a freightliner. -
They are supposed to fit every truck/iniversal fit

They work well

Put a 1/2 to full cup of dawn dish soap( use the cheap walmart copycat brand) in the reservoir with water or whatever you have in there.... You dont need those fancy blades. Been doing it for years and it works great..Might not work well in winter im pretty sure dawn gels up in really cold weather, i never noticed since i stay south.

They work better than the $7 blades, but don't stand up to a regular beam style $25 blade like an Icon or Evolution. The flaps rip off the scrubblades in a season or so and if you let them go they'll just scratch up the windshield.
Big Don Thanks this.
