Anyway I bought these after market wiper blades from supercheap auto, the best i could find. Cost me $70. They did a great job till one day there was heavy rain and it started skipping badly. Everytime i use the rainx out of the reserviour to squirt onto the window the skipping stops for 3 wipes then starts again. So i chucked them away and got triton wipers, this time for free from mechanic, and they are better but they make a smudge noise that makes me shake really high pitched.

I was wondering is it the rainx repellants causing this, or incorrect wiper blades? What wiper blades should i get and what size?
It's caused by the RainX that you apply on the windscreen. The skipping goes away after a few days of regular wiper usage with the windscreen spray Hope you didn't throw out those $70 wipers. LOL
