This is bad advice and will only work well temporarily. WD40 is mostly made of petroleum distillates and oil. These 2 ingredients will accelerate the breakdown of any rubber product. Sure, applying it to wiper blades will remove caked up debris and lubricate them to slide easily over the glass windshield (even with no water present), but the rubber compound of the blade will degrade and crack quicker. You will be disappointed at the short lifespan of your wipers, especially if you paid $30+ for the pair. The best way to maintain your wiper blades is to apply soapy water with a scrounge pad to remove caked up debris then wipe a silicone lubricant on the blade with a cotton rag. Ironically, WD40 also makes a silicone lubricant in a spray can. Silicone won’t breakdown rubber like petroleum distillates and oil will.

I think the black stuff that comes off of the wiper blades is actually the graphite that the blades are initially coated with to keep them from skipping and squeaking. A better solution MIGHT be to clean the blades and then run a 9b graphite pencil along the edge of the blades. Wd40 would work temporarily but as someone else said, it will degrade the rubber and it won't last.

This will work for a short period, but eventually you need to replace the blades as the edges get rounded and will not act as a squeegee for removing the water from your windshield as designed. If there was actually a way to cut the blades back to expose a fresh squared edge then this would work better at rejuvenating the blades.

Most people don’t know that the “WD” in WD-40 stands for ‘water displacement’. It was developed for minimizing ice buildup on liquid fuel rockets external tanks. It just happens to have lubricant properties as well as being hydrophobic. This is a great use for it since that is what it’s designed for as long as you rub it in well so as not to leave streaks of it on your windshield.

FYI, WD40 was invented by "Sandy" (Preston) Fleet and a couple of other partners. It was the 40th formula for their water displacement invention which finally worked the way they intended it to. They never patented WD40 because the patent filing would have had to have the description of what it was and was used for AND their secret formula which they didn't want revealed!!! Sandy also invented the Omnimax projection system for IMAX theatres such and the one at the HEARST CASTLE visitors center in SAN SIMEON California. He turned his barn on his central california ranch into a place for his player reproducer 40 rank pipe organ. Sandy was a great and generous man!

Rain X rocks!! I remember a situation recently where my wiper arm broke, but I had to get to my next destination. I stopped and purchased Rain X. Dried my window to the best of my ability and spread it liberally all over the windshield and left some of the residue on purpose. I proceeded to my destination, and the wind from driving literally kept my windshield very clear, enough to get where I was going without a problem. I'm not advocating people do this, but it really worked well. You can imagine how it works in conjunction with the wipers. BTW, I love WD 40, it has so many hidden uses that are truely amazing, good tip by the way. It's also a great hand cleaner in a pinch, just a quick tip from a mechanic. And I'm sure that last comment wiil trigger some people about skin cancer and heaven knows whatever else, but what these days isn't going to kill us. I'm 70 and still going strong inspite of all the things I shouldn't have done. I'll go when I'm good and ready.

Unless you spray it in your eyes, huff it, drink it, or spray near open flame, WD-40 is fairly innocuous stuff in normal use. Google WD-40 MSDS. Eating cookies and donuts on a regular basis is a greater health hazard.

The other cause? Is that the wiper rests on the "downsweep" position. After a while at rest (and no rain), the rubber will become fixed into that state. The solution, although you need to do it repeatedly, is to lift the wiper and allow the rubber to "flip back", then place it back down whenever you get home at the end of the day. This is a 2 second job. Better yet, pull the wiper down a cm or so, and then allow the wiper to "spring" back up into the "upsweep" position. This has saved me from replacing my wipers every year (which is a stupid waste of $40/yr for a COMPLETE wiper and blade set for my car) and instead, every 3-4 years instead.

Don't use wd40 for this: most of that residue is the actual rubber having been dissolved by the wd40. Use silicon spray instead after using a mix of dish detergent and water on a rag instead. That'll degrease them while the silicone spray will lubricate any remaining debris free of the blade.

I actually learned this “trick/hack” years ago, old trucker taught me this trick. It honestly works like a charm. I work advanced Critical Care so I leave the house early, really early, to get to the hospital. The windshield always has dew, rain etc on it so I use the wipers a lot in the morning, I live in Tennessee, you know if you don’t like the weather, stick around 5 minutes. Give this one a try if you haven’t already, I have never been disappointed.

I never heard of using WD-40 as a moisturizer. But I knew an old mechanic in his 70s, that swore that WD-40 on his knees relieved the pain somewhat. When we talked about it, he swore that a cousin of his used to clean his ears out with WD-40 on a Q-tip.. i’m a little cautious about getting any chemicals on my skin anymore, because anything that gets on your skin, gets inside your body, I don’t handle lead weights when balancing car tires anymore with bare hands, I don’t get oil on my hands when changing oil in my truck or in my motorcycles without using latex gloves, I wear a filter mask not just a cloth mask when doing any spray painting all the little things around the garage or house. are where rubber gloves when using my parts washing machine to clean parts even though the fluid in my parts washer is supposed to be safe and not very flammable. You don’t know what’s in whatever it is out there anymore.. I remember a few years ago that they found that there was counterfeit Colgate toothpaste , that was made in China and sold in dollar stores here in the USA, that had Etheline glycol. ( antifreeze) in it…Makes you wonder if some of the WD-40 out there is counterfeit with who knows what in it
