smearing windscreen wtf?
Ok so I replaced both factory wiper blades with a set of bosch A980S . Now even after doing that my passenger side is still smearing bad. Drivers side is fine but passenger side isnt. Any ideas what to do now? Its bloody annoying

Try claying the glass or cleaning it with IPA if you have some.

Only things I can think of is to polish the windscreen and keep rubbing the wiper blades with IPA until no more crap will come off. I was amazed how much time it took until the cloth stayed clean after rubbing my wiper blades!

Thank you, will be trying this - hoping it might remove the squeak I get as the wipers move back into place on the lower part of the screen - can see some residue there. (May try clay bar as well).
Will probably stick to the pale ale for drinking, though.
