The 24-inch blade is built to follow windshield curvature for consistent contact, and the repellent is transferred from the squeegee to the glass during normal use. For best results, activate the repellent by running the blade on a clean, dry windshield for two minutes; the effect can last for months under typical driving conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this blade improve visibility in rain and road spray?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade removes water and deposits a thin, lubricating repellent layer that causes droplets to bead and roll off faster.
