The wipers are working better but still are moving a bit erratically. My diagnosis: more likely the wipers are seizing or the wiper motor is failing than problems with the glass surface. So for this car, the cosmetics are good; the mechanics are bad.
I`ll look over the linkage, etc., this weekend and maybe post something to finish my travails.
Thanks to all for the advice, though. I still may do some more work to get the glass surface nicer on this car and the others that I need to care for.
