Just my observation with the product!
In that case, maybe I'd better pass. Around here, rain is the exception rather than the rule, but bugs, dust, and the spray from the salted/sanded roads to melt ice & help traction would force me to "wipe", anyway. Just thought of that - - better plan on keeping those blades REALLY handy if I ever do decide to go crazy & remove them, huh?

Thanks again for the info!
