Picture the scene: you’re driving home in a nonstop rainstorm, and your windshield wipers, which are supposed to help you find your way home, just make things worse. When wipers stop working, the results can be downright hazardous. At the very least, the situation is unduly stressful.

Changing the wipers might not be necessary. With a little ethyl alcohol that you might have at home, you can rub and remove all the dirt that has accumulated, giving the windshield wipers a new life. In exchange, you’ll also get the security and peace of mind you need for the next outing.
