Twister Frameless @ 3 years warrantly? me 1 year chui already the wiping becoming worse and worse. Esp the raining nowadays the wiping motion becoming more and more irritating, sometime juggle sometimes ok, but after wiping the water lining are clearly left behind, never swept clean. machiam oil being spread on windscreen. must produce receipt to claim? dunno if my receipt still around boh or if still around dunno faded already or not.

just clean windscreen with clean water. no rain x no nothing, or else your wipers do disco dancing always.

Yes..rain X will cause the wipers to jump and jerk. The previous owner may have use it. I suggest you use some mild detergent to wash your windscreen thoroughly and yes...claying might help too.

ya..use the newspaper to clean it is the best..tradition way of cleaning glass panel. U have to maintain the windsreen clean all the time becos the oil from the road or other cars might fly to ur windscreen without u noticing it.To prolong the lifespan of the wiper, i alway bring up the wiper arm. This will reduce the rubber from acting against the windscreen. This help alot specially when the car is park at open carpark during sunny day.

any bros have cheap place to gai xiao for wiper replacement? was using a frameless brandless wiper for almost 3/4 yrs.. now switch on wiper and off like no diff.. only spreads the water out into a blur mess... argh.. wanna change to cheap ones so can change often as baking in the sun causes wiper rubber to harden..

To thread starter, u can try using claybar to clean ur windscreen then follow by mama lemon. Repeat a few times, it works on me. Then try to spray water on it see if water stays or fall lo. If fall super fast 1 hor, comfirm still got waxxy layer on top.

Previously I have the same issue as you. After that manage to solve it by adjusting the rubber blade angle in contact with windscreen. i.e. need to apply some little force on wiper downward before contact the windscreen.
Hope this may help ....
