or other material may be on the blade or on the surface of the glass.
Clean the glass with a suitable cleaning agent. The glass is clean if beads do not form when you rinse it
with water.
Clean the wiper blade by wiping vigorously with a cloth soaked in full strength windshield washer
solvent. Then rinse the blade with water. Wiper blades should be checked on a regular basis and
replaced when worn.
