I've been buying Bosch blades for a long time but they don't seem to last
very long.
They get laid flat and the squeegee won't roll back to center position to
wipe good.
I tried some of those super duper double ??? wiper blades that are twice
as much and they don't work at all in cold weather ........ just sort of
bounce as the swing past my view.
The Bosch mostly wipe in the middle and the two inches on either end just
streaks.
Do you suppose the bug juices grease up the rubber or something?
