47-55.1 Wiper - What have I got?

[leegreen]

My father once told me that back in his hot rodding days in the 50s they'd rub a cut in half potato on the windshield for the rain-x affect. I never tried it.

I've used rainx to good affect on DDs, but it only lasts a few hours around here in the 10 month rainy season and it is hard to find a dry day to re-apply. I focus on new wiper blades and keeping the washer reservoir full. If I rainx anything it is usually door mirrors and rear windows.

it has not rained around here since I put the '52 on the road so i don't know how effective my wipers are. Or door seals for that matter.
