Scrubblade 16" 410MM Red Silicone ShadeBlade Wiper Blade

Love these blades have a set on my other vehicle.

Why? Because the review request came before I could actually use the blades. I've mounted a set of these shadeblades to my semi truck and I am one of those people who don't use his blades unless he absolutely needs to! My windshield has a ceramic treatment so water pretty much beads off it anyway. If I am driving on icy/snowy conditions, directing the heat to the windshield easily melts any formed ice and just a little bit of melt will glide even icicles and snow right off my windshield (I highly recommend ceramic treating your vehicle and if not, at least your windows as also help prevent water spots on your glass). Anyways driving through Phoenix this week it was raining quite a bit. I still didn't need to use these blades but I did anyway and well......they work great as expected. I have somewhat of an advantage so I really couldn't tell you how much better they are then regular blades however....one can assume these are probably twice as better because they have silicone blades and each blade can take care of each stroke of the windshield while making the back stroke easier on the other blade (if that makes sense). It's almost like one blade takes the brunt of the first wipe when you turn your wipers on and then the wipers retract towards the bottom of your windshield, the other blade takes care of anything left over while giving the first blade a break from doing all of the work. This sorta action allows these blade to last longer. My recommendation before using these? Claybar your windshield if you can to get any contamination off of it and then either hit it with a good polish, paint sealant or ceramic treatment. Let that stuff cure for as long as you could manage and then just wait for your first rain before using these.
