Wipers, mirros and windshield smearing....
Hey all, this is probably an OT thread but here goes anyway...On my wifes CR-V, the mirrors and windshield smear in the rain. I've tried scrubbing them to get any grime off, but no avail. The car is kept outside (no HIDs
). On the max though, the rain beads all over the car....especially the glass surfaces.
I'm gonna buy the PIAA wipers for her, but the mirrors will need RAin-X monthly....
Is the smearing that we're observing normal for cars that are kept outside???....Input from Max owners without heat mirrors would be appreciated...
Happy New One to all!!!....

I have the same exact problem on my max right now. Most likely its oil thats been kicked up by other cars that has smeared on your windshield and when it mixes with the water it gets horrible. I cant see anything at night with headlights glaring on it. I've gotten out and cleaned the wipers and the windshield but to no avail.
I bought some new blades, but I want to know if theres some kind of product that can get out oil/grease out of glass (not windex) but maybe something better before I put in the new blades and ruin them too.
