Default wiper stuff for 401/3

David:

My 405 wipers packed up in New Zealand two years ago, leaving Westport
on a day that had 300 mm of rain. It was like night and I could barely
make out the nearest bit of the dotted white line. Fortunately there
was almost no traffic. I only learnt about Rainex after that, and was
shown how to apply it in very small circular motions, really rubbing
it into the glass. I find it works quite well even at say 30 mph. Try
really working it in and washing it down then polishing afterwards.
It's a fairly new screen; maybe an older one could be more pitted and
not get a slick?

Sean
