haha good try brother lwkalvin .. thats how i found out that its the nuts that giving me suqeky sounds :)lwkalvin said:Alrite...i will try it. but my car is not that old...2 years old only. ;> Thanks!
anyway, i think of a way suddenly, u can just flip up your wiper (not touching the windscreen la) and try to switch it on. U can hear if it is that squeeky sound coming from that old nuts. Rite ?
TQ for your INFO bro :)siangmh said:Talks about clay bar, it cost slightly above rm100, can get from Ace Hardware.
I didn't have it, too expensive.
I did let the car wash centre tried (clay bar cleanning) once on my car, just a small area on the rear boot.
The effect of cleanning off all those sticky dirt is damn great. After wash but before clay cleaning, the surface is a bit rough, can feel by hand, eventhough i have polish & wax it few weeks ago. Then after clay bar cleaning, the surface is damn smooth! And can see the dirt sticked on the clay bar. Those dirt cant be clean off by car wash, will stick to clay bar.
Application of clay bar:
Use after car wash, but before polish & wax. 1st: "mixed" it like mixing plastersin(for 2nd time usage & above), to hide those dirty things inside the clay, then spray water to the clay bar & the car surface, then rub the clay bar on the surface (straight, not circular), repeat "mixed it" several time after clean-up a small section, clean section by section.
After clay bar cleanning, wipe dry & can start polish & wax again.
Hey...same brand with the claybar from eunos ? Windscreen polisher..never heard of that. Got any side effect like rain-x ar?b00n said:there's another product by Soft99 which is a windscreen polisher....
will try to post the pics after I search for it in my messy house.
siangmh said:For wiper judder problem, according to accs shop ppl, if the glass surface is clean & not too "dry", due to application of rain-x, then problem is that the structure of the wiper (the metal part) is slightly "bengkok" already, although not so obious to be seen by ordinary ppl.....dunno true or not. They advise to get a new pair of wiper if its not due to the glass dryness.
Refill wiper blade also not performing as good as new wiper bcos the few "spring arch" that hold the wiper blade will lost its strength in long term. When you hold up your wiper, you cant see it bent the wiper as when it is new. So replacing the whole set of wiper is more advisable.
Just my 2 cent lar. Please dont fire me lar :>
Its the "arch" shape thing in the wiper, like 4 (or less) "bow" holding the wiper blade/rubber. Those are the one that lost its strength after long term usage.lwkalvin said:U said the steel bar that holds the wiper bengkok, so by replacing new sets of wiper also doesnt have any effect since its the steel bar that causes the problem. Rite? im a lil confuse here.
