    it's hard to believe it's been over a
  • 00:00:01
    year since the last test on windshield
  • 00:00:02
    wipers
  • 00:00:03
    over the past year i've had some
  • 00:00:04
    windshield wipers up on a metal roof
  • 00:00:06
    getting exposed to uv
  • 00:00:08
    so let's get the testing underway and
  • 00:00:09
    see which brand held up the best
  • 00:00:11
    in the first test we'll compare the
  • 00:00:12
    amount of noise made by each brand
  • 00:00:14
    then we'll see how the uv exposed wiper
  • 00:00:16
    blades hold up at 55 miles per hour
  • 00:00:19
    using simulated rain finally we'll
  • 00:00:21
    compare the performance of the wiper
  • 00:00:22
    blades under heavy rain conditions
  • 00:00:24
    before we jump into the first test we'll
  • 00:00:25
    be comparing two types of wiper blades
  • 00:00:27
    the traditional style of wiper blade has
  • 00:00:29
    been around for decades and uses a metal
  • 00:00:31
    frame with a super structure and blade
  • 00:00:32
    claws
  • 00:00:33
    the more modern design uses a beam style
  • 00:00:35
    construction in the last video we tested
  • 00:00:37
    a couple of hybrid style wiper blades
  • 00:00:39
    which uses a steel frame and a rubber
  • 00:00:41
    cover
  • 00:00:41
    but they didn't perform very well and we
  • 00:00:43
    won't be testing them again this time
  • 00:00:45
    at a price of 8.94 per wiper blade is
  • 00:00:48
    this auto drive brand it claims to be a
  • 00:00:50
    high performance all season wiper blade
  • 00:00:52
    the auto drive uses a steel frame and
  • 00:00:53
    super structure
  • 00:00:54
    high performance design optimum
  • 00:00:56
    visibility with pressure points
  • 00:00:58
    rugged frame technology helps prevent
  • 00:00:59
    ice and snow buildup the auto drive
  • 00:01:01
    wiper blade is made in vietnam i
  • 00:01:03
    purchased two aerodrive wiper blades one
  • 00:01:05
    year ago
  • 00:01:05
    this wiper blade has been out in the
  • 00:01:07
    weather for a full year this wiper blade
  • 00:01:09
    has not been so let's take a closer look
  • 00:01:11
    at each one
  • 00:01:12
    auto drive uses a protective coating on
  • 00:01:14
    the rubber the coating on the new wiper
  • 00:01:15
    blade is showing a lot of little cracks
  • 00:01:17
    the protective coating on the wiper
  • 00:01:18
    blade that's been experiencing uv
  • 00:01:20
    exposure for a full year has plenty more
  • 00:01:22
    cracks and is worn off in some areas
  • 00:01:24
    there aren't any squeaks with the new
  • 00:01:25
    auto
  • 00:01:26
    drive wiper
  • 00:01:29
    the uv exposed wiper is doing pretty
  • 00:01:31
    good but there is a slight squeak
  • 00:01:34
    at 11.93 the second least expensive
  • 00:01:37
    brand we'll be testing is this trico
  • 00:01:38
    trichoneoform brand
  • 00:01:40
    premium protection beam blade it claims
  • 00:01:42
    to be a premium oe factory replacement
  • 00:01:44
    exclusive dual point coupler helps
  • 00:01:46
    eliminate streaking we're going to test
  • 00:01:47
    that
  • 00:01:48
    these trico blades are made in mexico
  • 00:01:50
    here uv exposure has definitely had an
  • 00:01:52
    impact on the trico blades as you can
  • 00:01:53
    see they're a lot more faded and we'll
  • 00:01:54
    take a closer look at them
  • 00:01:56
    the coating on the new trico wiper blade
  • 00:01:58
    looks new without visible cracking or
  • 00:01:59
    peeling
  • 00:02:00
    the protective coating on the uv exposed
  • 00:02:02
    tricho blade appears to be wearing away
  • 00:02:10
    the new and the uv exposed trico wipers
  • 00:02:12
    are definitely noisier than the auto
  • 00:02:14
    drive
  • 00:02:14
    at 12.7 cents per wiper blade the third
  • 00:02:17
    least expensive brand we'll be testing
  • 00:02:18
    is made by vallejo
  • 00:02:20
    it's a 600 series premium wiper blade
  • 00:02:22
    vallejo claims to be the number one
  • 00:02:23
    worldwide wiper system manufacturer the
  • 00:02:26
    vallejo uses a steel frame and
  • 00:02:27
    superstructure
  • 00:02:28
    synthetic plus natural plus coating
  • 00:02:30
    there's no information on the vallejo
  • 00:02:31
    box indicating where these blades were
  • 00:02:33
    manufactured the coating on the new
  • 00:02:34
    vallejo looks very similar to the
  • 00:02:36
    coating used on the auto drive
  • 00:02:38
    the uv exposure has definitely caused
  • 00:02:39
    the coating to break down some
  • 00:02:44
    the vallejo is definitely noisier than
  • 00:02:46
    the auto drive
  • 00:02:50
    the uv exposed vallejo is making about
  • 00:02:52
    the same amount of noise as a new blade
  • 00:02:54
    at a price of 16.98 is this aero quality
  • 00:02:57
    all season rubber wiper blade
  • 00:02:59
    the arrow uses a beam style construction
  • 00:03:01
    it claims their durable material offers
  • 00:03:03
    more thermal resistance and longer
  • 00:03:05
    performance life specially blended
  • 00:03:07
    rubber delivers smooth
  • 00:03:08
    clean streak-free and chatter-free wipe
  • 00:03:10
    we're going to test that the aero wiper
  • 00:03:12
    is made in china the coating on the new
  • 00:03:13
    aero wiper is in great shape without any
  • 00:03:15
    fractures like the auto drive or the
  • 00:03:17
    vallejo the coating on the uv exposed
  • 00:03:19
    blade appears to be breaking down a
  • 00:03:20
    little
  • 00:03:24
    there's a slight squeak with the arrow
  • 00:03:28
    the uv exposed arrow wiper is squeaking
  • 00:03:30
    even more at a price of 18.94
  • 00:03:33
    is this bosch icon brand the bosch icon
  • 00:03:36
    blade will be testing uses a beam style
  • 00:03:38
    blade the clear max 365
  • 00:03:39
    is a rubber wiper blade the clearmax 365
  • 00:03:42
    uses a unique rubber technology this
  • 00:03:44
    technology combines a soft rubber core
  • 00:03:46
    with a powder coated shell which
  • 00:03:48
    protects the wiping edge from ozone
  • 00:03:49
    deterioration snow sleet rain and road
  • 00:03:51
    debris for longer life
  • 00:03:53
    it claims to reduce wiper friction for
  • 00:03:55
    quieter performance the bosch blades are
  • 00:03:57
    made in china
  • 00:03:58
    the uv exposed bosch icon doesn't show
  • 00:04:00
    any visible deterioration
  • 00:04:05
    a very small squeak with the bosch icon
  • 00:04:10
    the uv exposed bosch icon is making
  • 00:04:12
    about the same amount of noise
  • 00:04:14
    at a price of 19.47 are these michelin
  • 00:04:17
    silicone blades
  • 00:04:18
    durability tested 2 million plus wipes
  • 00:04:21
    extreme weather performance
  • 00:04:22
    it claims the last two times longer the
  • 00:04:24
    michelins are made in vietnam the blade
  • 00:04:26
    that hasn't been exposed to uv is on top
  • 00:04:27
    the one that has is on the bottom
  • 00:04:29
    there's definitely some type of coating
  • 00:04:30
    that's been used on the wiper blades the
  • 00:04:32
    uv exposed michelin doesn't show any
  • 00:04:34
    visible deterioration
  • 00:04:44
    there's quite a bit more squeaking with
  • 00:04:45
    the michelin silicone blade compared to
  • 00:04:47
    some of the other brands
  • 00:04:48
    at a price of 24.97 is this rainex
  • 00:04:51
    silicone endura brand
  • 00:04:52
    two times longer lasting the rain x
  • 00:04:54
    blade is made in indonesia
  • 00:04:56
    just like the michelin silicone the
  • 00:04:58
    rain-x silicone blade held up really
  • 00:04:59
    well over the past year
  • 00:05:03
    the rain-x silicone is definitely
  • 00:05:04
    quieter than the michelin silicone
  • 00:05:10
    the uv exposed rain x wiper blade seems
  • 00:05:12
    to be about the same
  • 00:05:13
    at 26.44 the most expensive brand we'll
  • 00:05:16
    be testing is made by pia
  • 00:05:17
    silicone advantage two times longer
  • 00:05:19
    lasting water repellent silicone barrier
  • 00:05:22
    long lasting performance quiet and
  • 00:05:24
    streak free operation
  • 00:05:25
    made in indonesia the pia and the rain x
  • 00:05:27
    both appear to have held up about the
  • 00:05:29
    same over the past year
  • 00:05:36
    the new and the uv exposed po wipers
  • 00:05:38
    seem to be making about the same amount
  • 00:05:40
    of noise as the rain-x
  • 00:05:41
    to simulate light to moderate rain
  • 00:05:43
    conditions i put together a rain
  • 00:05:44
    simulator on my pickup there's a spray
  • 00:05:46
    nozzle aiming down at the front
  • 00:05:47
    windshield
  • 00:05:48
    the plumbing from the spray nozzle runs
  • 00:05:50
    all the way back to the pickup truck bed
  • 00:05:52
    where there's a generator a shallow well
  • 00:05:53
    pump and 150 gallon water tank
  • 00:05:56
    instead of it raining all the time i can
  • 00:05:58
    just push a button and start the rain
  • 00:05:59
    i'll be testing the wipers at 55 miles
  • 00:06:02
    per hour let's go ahead and test the uv
  • 00:06:03
    exposed wipers beginning with the auto
  • 00:06:05
    drive brand which is on the driver's
  • 00:06:07
    side of the vehicle the auto drive wiper
  • 00:06:08
    performed well on the sweep to the left
  • 00:06:10
    but water can be seen spilling over the
  • 00:06:12
    top of the wiper element on the downward
  • 00:06:13
    sweep to the right in heavy rain
  • 00:06:15
    conditions the problem would be even
  • 00:06:16
    more noticeable
  • 00:06:18
    the trico performed very well on the
  • 00:06:19
    sweep to the left as well as the sweep
  • 00:06:21
    to the right the beam style design
  • 00:06:22
    definitely helped it perform better than
  • 00:06:24
    the auto drive on the downward sweep
  • 00:06:26
    with very little water spilling over the
  • 00:06:28
    top of the beam
  • 00:06:29
    tricho is on the left and auto drive is
  • 00:06:31
    on the right a lot more water is passing
  • 00:06:32
    over the auto drive wiper while the
  • 00:06:34
    trico wiper is doing a better job
  • 00:06:36
    holding the water from passing over the
  • 00:06:38
    element
  • 00:06:41
    the vallejo did a great job on the left
  • 00:06:43
    and right sweep it also experienced less
  • 00:06:45
    water spilling over the wiper element
  • 00:06:47
    compared to the auto
  • 00:06:48
    drive the arrow uses a beam style blade
  • 00:06:52
    and did a great job on the left and the
  • 00:06:53
    sweep to the right there was a small
  • 00:06:55
    amount of water spilling over the blade
  • 00:06:57
    near the end of the right sweep
  • 00:07:01
    the posh icon definitely did the best
  • 00:07:03
    yet while all of the other brands
  • 00:07:04
    experienced some water spillover on the
  • 00:07:06
    sweep to the right the bosch icon did a
  • 00:07:08
    great job managing the water
  • 00:07:13
    the michelin silicone beam style blade
  • 00:07:15
    definitely experienced more water
  • 00:07:16
    spilling over the top of the wiper than
  • 00:07:18
    the bosch icon
  • 00:07:19
    it still did a great job
  • 00:07:24
    the rayneck silicone beam style blade
  • 00:07:26
    seems to be very well designed
  • 00:07:27
    it seems to have performed just as well
  • 00:07:29
    as the bosch icon the michelin is on the
  • 00:07:31
    left and the rain-x is on the right the
  • 00:07:33
    rain-x definitely seems to be doing a
  • 00:07:34
    better job managing the water while the
  • 00:07:36
    michelin had a little bit more water
  • 00:07:37
    spill over the wiper blade
  • 00:07:39
    the ps silicone beam style blade
  • 00:07:40
    performed very well there was a small
  • 00:07:42
    amount of water spillover on the sweep
  • 00:07:43
    to the right very often when i get
  • 00:07:45
    caught in a heavy downpour
  • 00:07:46
    traffic comes to a near stop when you're
  • 00:07:48
    just about stopped rain visibility
  • 00:07:50
    becomes even more challenging so let's
  • 00:07:52
    test the wipers using even more water
  • 00:07:53
    spray while the vehicle is sitting still
  • 00:07:55
    with heavier simulated rain conditions
  • 00:07:57
    there's quite a bit of water streaking
  • 00:07:59
    with the auto drive brand on the sweep
  • 00:08:00
    to the left and even more on the sweep
  • 00:08:02
    to the right
  • 00:08:03
    the trico experienced quite a bit of
  • 00:08:04
    water streaking on the sweep to the left
  • 00:08:06
    but a little bit less water streaking on
  • 00:08:07
    the sweep to the right compared to the
  • 00:08:09
    auto drive
  • 00:08:10
    the auto drive is on the left and the
  • 00:08:11
    trico is on the right there is quite a
  • 00:08:13
    bit more water streaking with the outer
  • 00:08:14
    drive in the middle part of the
  • 00:08:16
    windshield but the trico had quite a bit
  • 00:08:17
    near the bottom
  • 00:08:18
    there's quite a bit of streaking on the
  • 00:08:20
    left sweep there's also quite a bit of
  • 00:08:22
    streaking on the sweep to the right
  • 00:08:25
    vallejo is on the left and trika was on
  • 00:08:27
    the right there was definitely more
  • 00:08:28
    water streaking with vallejo on the
  • 00:08:29
    sweep to the left
  • 00:08:30
    both brands experienced quite a bit of
  • 00:08:32
    streaking on the right sweep the aero
  • 00:08:33
    brand definitely did the best so far on
  • 00:08:35
    the sweep to the left with just one
  • 00:08:37
    water streak on the sweep to the right
  • 00:08:38
    there was quite a bit of water streaking
  • 00:08:40
    but definitely better than the other
  • 00:08:41
    brands
  • 00:08:42
    arrows on the left and trico is on the
  • 00:08:44
    right arrow definitely seems to have
  • 00:08:45
    done a better job on the sweep to the
  • 00:08:47
    left
  • 00:08:47
    there definitely seems to be less water
  • 00:08:49
    streaking on the sweep to the right with
  • 00:08:50
    the aero brand as well
  • 00:08:51
    the bosch icon definitely did the best
  • 00:08:53
    yet there weren't any water streaks on
  • 00:08:55
    the sweep to the left the amount of
  • 00:08:56
    water on the sweep to the right was very
  • 00:08:58
    minimal compared to the other brands
  • 00:09:00
    very impressive bosch icon is on the
  • 00:09:02
    left and arrow is on the right
  • 00:09:03
    while both brands did a terrific job the
  • 00:09:05
    bosch icon definitely delivered a
  • 00:09:07
    cleaner sweep to the left and to the
  • 00:09:08
    right
  • 00:09:08
    the michelin wipers did a pretty good
  • 00:09:10
    job on the sweep to the left with a
  • 00:09:11
    small amount of water streaking from the
  • 00:09:13
    top of the wiper
  • 00:09:14
    the michelin definitely didn't seem to
  • 00:09:16
    do as well as the bosch icon on the
  • 00:09:17
    sweep to the right the michelin is on
  • 00:09:19
    the left and the bosch is on the right
  • 00:09:20
    both brands did well but the bosch icon
  • 00:09:22
    definitely did a better job on the sweep
  • 00:09:24
    to the left and to the right
  • 00:09:25
    the rainex silicone blade did fairly
  • 00:09:27
    well but left the streak on the sweep to
  • 00:09:29
    the left
  • 00:09:29
    the amount of water left behind on a
  • 00:09:31
    sweep to the right is definitely more
  • 00:09:32
    than the amount of water left by the
  • 00:09:34
    bosch icon
  • 00:09:35
    rainx is on the left and bosch icon is
  • 00:09:37
    on the right the bosch icon definitely
  • 00:09:38
    seems to have done a better job managing
  • 00:09:40
    the water on both the left as well as
  • 00:09:42
    the right sweep
  • 00:09:43
    the performance of the ps silicone
  • 00:09:44
    wipers looks nearly identical to the
  • 00:09:46
    performance of the rain-x wipers
  • 00:09:48
    both experienced a small amount of water
  • 00:09:49
    streaking on the sweep to the left and
  • 00:09:51
    several streaks on the sweep to the
  • 00:09:52
    right the bosch icon definitely seems to
  • 00:09:54
    have done a better job
  • 00:09:55
    pia silicone is on the left and bosch
  • 00:09:57
    icon is on the right the pia silicone is
  • 00:09:59
    definitely leaving behind more water
  • 00:10:01
    than the bosch icon so it's bosch icon
  • 00:10:03
    for the win
  • 00:10:04
    in light rain conditions at 55 miles per
  • 00:10:06
    hour the type of wiper blade i used
  • 00:10:08
    didn't seem to make that much of a
  • 00:10:09
    difference
  • 00:10:10
    however in heavy rain conditions under
  • 00:10:12
    slower speeds it made a huge difference
  • 00:10:14
    and the bosch icon
  • 00:10:16
    really stood out i was also very
  • 00:10:18
    impressed with a couple of other brands
  • 00:10:19
    the rain x seemed to do very well
  • 00:10:21
    and if you're looking for a budget brand
  • 00:10:22
    it's going to be really hard to beat the
  • 00:10:24
    arrow
  • 00:10:25

  • 00:10:26
