How To Replace Windshield Wiper Blades

Hi! I'm John from Autovalet UK, UK's leading car Valleting Company. Today we're going to give you some tips on how to maintain your vehicle and keeping it in pristine condition. Hi! Today were going to show you how to clean and change your windscreen wipers.

The first thing for you to do is lift your windscreen wipers most people find that they need to change their wind screen wipers every 6 months to a year depending on the frequency of their driving. This may not be necessary because in most cases the windscreen wipers just build up dirt and this is why they are smearing when you're using them in motion. We would recommend to you some hot water and a wash mitt and run this up and down the blade of the wiper, the rubber blade.

This process obviously can be repeated if there is a rear windscreen wiper as well. Once you are happy that all the excess dirt has come loose on the wiper clean with a clean cloth and wipe down the blades. Check the cloth to ensure that the dirt is coming off; fold the cloth to a clean area and repeat the process until this dirt stops coming off to the cloth.

You may need to repeat this process more than once depending on the age and condition of the wipers and again once you've shampooed and washed them, dry the wipers off turning the cloth frequently this will help you to see how much dirt is left or if there isn't any dirt left on the windscreen wipers. Once this process is done, we would recommend that you try the wipers to see if it's made an improvement. If not, then it's very easy to change your wipers, there should be a clip either on the side or underneath from the top part of your wiper.

With your new wipers you will get instructions per vehicle. It's very simple, all you need to do is take off the other wiper, replace it with a new one and slide it back on to the arm. Once you have done this press the wiper back on to the windscreen and that's how we clean windshield wipers and also change them. .
