Snow and ice buildup are obviously tough on wiper blades. What recommendations does Michelin have for removing them that helps avoid damage?
The first thing to observe when attempting to remove wipers in freezing conditions is to see if the blades are frozen to the windshield. Gently pull up on the wiper to see if it is frozen. Using force can cause the rubber to tear resulting in permanent damage. If the wipers are covered with snow, run water or washer solvent over the wiper if possible to melt the snow or gently brush aside the snow so that the wiper is visible. The water can also be used to free the rubber from the glass safely without tearing it or damaging the wiping edge. The windshield can also be allowed to warm up with the defroster on the highest setting.
