Found the same as CG, Rain Ex does not agree with the wipers on Fl2, have also tried it on other vehicles and found that it maybe something to do with the make up of the Blade, if you have the old style blade that have been around for donkeys it seems ok but the later style blades that are fitted to Fl2 it does not agree. |

Nilglass, available from MAKRO is excellent. Don't use too much at a time though, and use plenty of kitchen roll. |

Don't need kitchen roll, see before, just need newspaper. We Don't Care About Pot Holes !! |

Rain-ex works a treat for me on my11. Make sure youve got the latest rain-ex. The older formula didn't have a spray gun, just a squeeze bottle. After the first application it did make the wipers judder a little. However after 2nd application a week later it never has since. |

I have to disagree. The last application was a month ago and it's just about waring out. Once a month in fine for me and means the bottle lasts a good year too... |

No problems here using the spray bottle Rain-X. It's all but worn off now, and time to do it again, but no skipping. |

I also use newspaper. Window cleaner swears by it. Does a cracking job.

Distilled (white) vinegar works a treat but you can only seem to buy it with pickled onions floating around in it, in the UK.
