My wiper blades have been getting realy noisy recently probably due to the wash and wax i use i was talking to a customer who said try wiping the screen with a potato cut in half, so i did and it worked no more noisy squeaky wipers (i was skeptical to be fair) but now i have a clean windscreen and no more noisy wipers



Glad you’ve sautéed them out! Laughing
