So... most people seem to be recommending Rainex? I have been needing some whipers for a while now (mine just smear drops of water and blur my vision, and miss spots). I work at a place that sells Rainex whipers and I though they would be junk due to the $6 price tag. I was looking more into some advanced looking ones, but I don't know if the $20 per blade price will be justified.

Now that I see some confidence in the Rainex I'll probably buy some tomorrow. With my 20% off that is.

Um Captain we've hit warp speed 6.2.... yeah it does look like you're going through space, I've never looked at it like that

Stoner isn't just aerosol, they come in liquid spray bottles too, I highly recommend it


I'm very **** about my glass too, I have to clean them even after washing my car because it never gets all the dust/dirt off or I get water spotting (that word sends shivers up my spine). And some nights after work I'll have the urge to get a pea sized water spot off my window but it isn't just enough to clean that window, all of them have to be at least wiped off. I'm even worst about my mirrors.

Did I beat you about how **** you are about your windows?

FWIW, water spots from acid rain and mineral etching can be removed by sanding the glass with steel wool. Pull a hose over the top of the car and let it run down the windows and sand away.

It sounds nuts (at least it did when I first heard it) but it works surprisingly well.

nah i wish i did. i had the engine sieze up on me driving through a severe blizzard. Apparently if you have an openfaced ghetto rigged cold air intake without any kind of cover driving in an icestorm is BAD, that was about 7 years ago and i traded the paperweight for a 92 hatchback that was gutted out to bare metal. then i blew a piston in that and gave up on ricers lol
