Thumbs up Jamak Glider wiper blades are great!

I just picked up a pair at Wal-Mart for $13/ea, and they are the best wiper blades I've used so far!

I just hope their durability lasts longer than the Bosch and Ancos I've been using, both of which are dissapointing, so I've used Ancos lately since they're half the price of the Bosch.

Also, the Gliders seem to work a lot better with the Aquapel I have on there. The Ancos smeared and chattered very quickly with my glass.

BTW, these are virtually identical to the Bosch Icon blades...

Thanks for the heads-up, I change mine out towards the end of the year. I'll have to look into those.

Hmm... just out of curiosity, do you think the Teflon would really have any advantage? Teflon would only help the blade resist water... in fact, perhaps it might even reduce the effectiveness of the bottom of the blade, in that rather than "cutting" the water it might just pass over it!
