Car Maintenance: Sandpaper Can Polish&Recondition Wiper Blade

Wiper blade is the commonly used accessory of car body that is mainly used to wipe off the rain on the windshield in rainy days, and also used to wash the windshield. Wiper blade is a small part of cars, and although it is not normally used infrequently, we will not be glad if it can not clean the glass. Skillfully using sandpaper to polish and recondition wiper blade can solve this problem. And Nanchang Dove Industrial Materials Co., Ltd., CIPIE(Henan)Import and Export Trade Co.,LTD and Dongguan Houjie FENGRUI Abrasives Factory. can supply high quality sandpaper for buyers.

The method of sandpaper polishing wiper blade will have a cleaning effect only used under the condition of the low cleaning effect caused by the aging rubber strip. Therefore, when we find that the wiper blade can not clean the glass, we should firstly find the cause: Whether the wiper blade is abnormal when in use; Whether the rubber surface is aging or severe damaged, cracking and so on. At that time, you need to replace wiper blade.

Of course, if the above conditions are not what you find, we can determine the wiper blade has performance degradation after aging and corrosion. Although it still can be normally used, the cleaning effect has been compromised.

We have collected several reaction car wiper blades that are not good. Through the experiment, we can  discover that many cars all have the problems about wiper blade.

Through observing the phenomenon of the test vehicle, we find that the work result of one wiper blade is not so good. Although there is no sound and obvious deformation and ageing, the remain marks are obvious after blowing glass, which conforms to our testing requirement.

The small doohickey actually needs to use a few simple tools: a bottle filled with clear water and sandpaper. We must say that sandpapers on market are divided into a lot of kinds, whose degree of thickness is different too. We recommend to use fine sandpaper for polishing wiper blade in order to avoid the excessive harm to the surface of wiper blade, and it will also affect the use of wiper blade.

To make the contrast more apparent, we dirty the test car's windshield on purpose, spewing water and then open the wiper blade. Obviously, the upper position of wiper blade has obvious mark, and is still not completely clear after several times repeated washing.

Then we take the wiper blade off to clean it, and then use the sandpaper to clamp the rubber strip of wiper blade on the side, to start the friction repeatedly for three to four times. And finally, we start to clean it with water and try to make the particles removed, and then install the wiper blade back again for a second test.

From the point of effect, sandpaper really can help to get the effect of polishing wiper blade, and the method can improve the washing effect, and extend the life of the wiper blade.

Of course, the effect what we're talking about is relative. This way can help to increase the wash effect but if you want to remove the marks completely, and make wiper blade new, it is unrealistic. The method by using sandpaper for polishing and reconditioning is only limited to the condition that the wiper blade appears aging.
