It's hard to believe it's been over a year since the last test on windshield wipers. Over the past year, I've had some windshield wipers up on a metal roof, getting exposed to UV. So, let's get the testing underway and see which brand held up the best. In the first test, we'll compare the amount of noise made by each brand. Then, we'll see how the UV-exposed wiper blades hold up at 55 miles per hour using simulated rain. Finally, we'll compare the performance of the wiper blades under heavy rain conditions. Before we jump into the first test, we'll be comparing two types of wiper blades. The traditional style of wiper blade has been around for decades and uses a metal frame with a superstructure and blade claws. The more modern design uses a beam-style construction. In the last video, we tested a couple of hybrid-style wiper blades, which use a steel frame and a rubber cover, but they didn't perform very well, and we won't be testing them again this time.

at a price of 8.94 per wiper blade, is this auto drive brand. It claims to be a high-performance all-season wiper blade. The auto drive uses a steel frame and superstructure, high-performance design, optimum visibility with pressure points. Rugged frame technology helps prevent ice and snow buildup. The auto drive wiper blade is made in Vietnam. I purchased two aerodrive wiper blades one year ago. This wiper blade has been out in the weather for a full year. This wiper blade has not been. So let's take a closer look at each one. Auto drive uses a protective coating on the rubber. The coating on the new wiper blade is showing a lot of little cracks. The protective coating on the wiper blade that's been experiencing UV exposure for a full year has plenty more cracks and is worn off in some areas. There aren't any squeaks with the new auto drive wiper. The UV-exposed wiper is doing pretty good, but there is a slight squeak at 11.93. The second least expensive

brand we'll be testing is this Trico Trichoneoform brand premium protection beam blade. It claims to be a premium OE factory replacement. Exclusive dual point coupler helps eliminate streaking. We're going to test that. These Trico blades are made in Mexico. Here, UV exposure has definitely had an impact on the Trico blades. As you can see, they're a lot more faded. And we'll take a closer look at them. The coating on the new Trico wiper blade looks new without visible cracking or peeling. The protective coating on the UV exposed Trico blade appears to be wearing away. The new and the UV exposed Trico wipers are definitely noisier than the Auto Drive at 12.7 cents per wiper blade. The third least expensive brand we'll be testing is made by Vallejo. It's a 600 series premium wiper blade. Vallejo claims to be the number one worldwide wiper system manufacturer. The Vallejo uses a steel frame and superstructure synthetic plus natural plus coating.

there's no information on the Vallejo box indicating where these blades were manufactured. The coating on the new Vallejo looks very similar to the coating used on the Auto Drive. The UV exposure has definitely caused the coating to break down some. The Vallejo is definitely noisier than the Auto Drive. The UV exposed Vallejo is making about the same amount of noise as a new blade. At a price of 16.98, is this Aero quality all-season rubber wiper blade? The Aero uses a beam style construction. It claims their durable material offers more thermal resistance and longer performance life. Specially blended rubber delivers smooth, clean, streak-free, and chatter-free wipe. We're going to test that. The Aero wiper is made in China. The coating on the new Aero wiper is in great shape, without any fractures like the Auto Drive or the Vallejo. The coating on the UV exposed blade appears to be breaking down a little. There's a slight squeak with the Aero. The UV exposed Aero wiper is squeaking.

even more at a price of 18.94 is this Bosch Icon brand. The Bosch Icon blade will be testing uses a beam style blade. The Clear Max 365 is a rubber wiper blade. The Clear Max 365 uses a unique rubber technology. This technology combines a soft rubber core with a powder-coated shell, which protects the wiping edge from ozone deterioration, snow, sleet, rain, and road debris for longer life. It claims to reduce wiper friction for quieter performance. The Bosch blades are made in China. The UV-exposed Bosch Icon doesn't show any visible deterioration, a very small squeak with the Bosch Icon. The UV-exposed Bosch Icon is making about the same amount of noise at a price of 19.47. Are these Michelin silicone blades durability tested 2 million plus wipes, extreme weather performance? It claims to last two times longer. The Michelins are made in Vietnam. The blade that hasn't been exposed to UV is on top; the one that has is on the bottom.

there's definitely some type of coating that's been used on the wiper blades. The UV-exposed Michelin doesn't show any visible deterioration. There's quite a bit more squeaking with the Michelin silicone blade compared to some of the other brands. At a price of 24.97, is this Rain-X silicone Endura brand two times longer lasting? The Rain-X blade is made in Indonesia, just like the Michelin silicone. The Rain-X silicone blade held up really well over the past year. The Rain-X silicone is definitely quieter than the Michelin silicone. The UV-exposed Rain-X wiper blade seems to be about the same at 26.44, the most expensive brand we'll be testing is made by Pia Silicone Advantage, two times longer lasting, water-repellent silicone barrier, long-lasting performance, quiet and streak-free operation, made in Indonesia. The Pia and the Rain-X both appear to have held up about the same over the past year. The new and the UV-exposed Pia wipers seem to be making about the same amount.

of noise as the rain-x to simulate light to moderate rain conditions. I put together a rain simulator on my pickup. There's a spray nozzle aiming down at the front windshield. The plumbing from the spray nozzle runs all the way back to the pickup truck bed where there's a generator, a shallow well pump, and a 150-gallon water tank. Instead of it raining all the time, I can just push a button and start the rain. I'll be testing the wipers at 55 miles per hour. Let's go ahead and test the UV exposed wipers, beginning with the Auto Drive brand, which is on the driver's side of the vehicle. The Auto Drive wiper performed well on the sweep to the left, but water can be seen spilling over the top of the wiper element on the downward sweep to the right. In heavy rain conditions, the problem would be even more noticeable. The Trico performed very well on the sweep to the left as well as the sweep to the right. The beam style design definitely helped it perform better than

the auto drive on the downward sweep with very little water spilling over the top of the beam. Trico is on the left and auto drive is on the right. A lot more water is passing over the auto drive wiper while the trico wiper is doing a better job holding the water from passing over the element. The Vallejo did a great job on the left and right sweep. It also experienced less water spilling over the wiper element compared to the auto drive. The arrow uses a beam style blade and did a great job on the left and the sweep to the right. There was a small amount of water spilling over the blade near the end of the right sweep. The Posh icon definitely did the best yet while all of the other brands experienced some water spillover on the sweep to the right. The Bosch icon did a great job managing the water. The Michelin silicone beam style blade definitely experienced more water spilling over the top of the wiper than the Bosch icon.

It still did a great job. The Rayneck silicone beam style blade seems to be very well designed. It seems to have performed just as well as the Bosch Icon. The Michelin is on the left and the Rain-X is on the right. The Rain-X definitely seems to be doing a better job managing the water, while the Michelin had a little bit more water spill over the wiper blade. The PS silicone beam style blade performed very well. There was a small amount of water spillover on the sweep to the right. Very often when I get caught in a heavy downpour, traffic comes to a near stop. When you're just about stopped, rain visibility becomes even more challenging. So let's test the wipers using even more water spray while the vehicle is sitting still with heavier simulated rain conditions. There's quite a bit of water streaking with the Auto Drive brand on the sweep to the left and even more on the sweep to the right. The Trico experienced quite a bit of water streaking on the sweep to the left.

but a little bit less water streaking on the sweep to the right compared to the auto drive. The auto drive is on the left and the trico is on the right. There is quite a bit more water streaking with the outer drive in the middle part of the windshield, but the trico had quite a bit near the bottom. There's quite a bit of streaking on the left sweep. There's also quite a bit of streaking on the sweep to the right. Vallejo is on the left and trika was on the right. There was definitely more water streaking with Vallejo on the sweep to the left. Both brands experienced quite a bit of streaking on the right sweep. The aero brand definitely did the best so far on the sweep to the left with just one water streak. On the sweep to the right, there was quite a bit of water streaking but definitely better than the other brands. Arrows on the left and trico is on the right. Arrow definitely seems to have

done a better job on the sweep to the left. There definitely seems to be less water streaking on the sweep to the right with the aero brand as well. The Bosch icon definitely did the best yet. There weren't any water streaks on the sweep to the left. The amount of water on the sweep to the right was very minimal compared to the other brands. Very impressive. Bosch icon is on the left and arrow is on the right. While both brands did a terrific job, the Bosch icon definitely delivered a cleaner sweep to the left and to the right. The Michelin wipers did a pretty good job on the sweep to the left with a small amount of water streaking from the top of the wiper. The Michelin definitely didn't seem to do as well as the Bosch icon on the sweep to the right. The Michelin is on the left and the Bosch is on the right. Both brands did well, but the Bosch icon definitely did a better job on the sweep to the left and to the right.

the Rain-X silicone blade did fairly well but left a streak on the sweep to the left. The amount of water left behind on a sweep to the right is definitely more than the amount of water left by the Bosch Icon. Rain-X is on the left and Bosch Icon is on the right. The Bosch Icon definitely seems to have done a better job managing the water on both the left as well as the right sweep. The performance of the Pia silicone wipers looks nearly identical to the performance of the Rain-X wipers. Both experienced a small amount of water streaking on the sweep to the left and several streaks on the sweep to the right. The Bosch Icon definitely seems to have done a better job. Pia silicone is on the left and Bosch Icon is on the right. The Pia silicone is definitely leaving behind more water than the Bosch Icon. So, it's Bosch Icon for the win in light rain conditions at 55 miles per hour. The type of wiper blade I used.

didn't seem to make that much of a difference. However, in heavy rain conditions under slower speeds, it made a huge difference, and the Bosch Icon really stood out. I was also very impressed with a couple of other brands. The Rain-X seemed to do very well, and if you're looking for a budget brand, it's going to be really hard to beat the Aero. All the videos in this channel, including this one, are viewer-suggested, so I hope you'll take time to give me some more video ideas. Thanks so much for watching. Please take care and look forward to next time.

앞유리 와이퍼 테스트: 1년의 리뷰

지난 1년간 앞유리 와이퍼는 금속 지붕 위에서 자외선에 노출되었으며, 이제는 성능 테스트를 받고 있습니다.

이 테스트에서는 여러 브랜드의 소음, 자외선 노출 및 폭우 성능을 비교합니다.

오토 드라이브, 트리코, 발레호 와이퍼 블레이드가 평가 대상이며, 오토 드라이브는 마모와 소음이 가장 적은 반면 트리코 블레이드는 자외선 노출로 인한 변색과 소음이 더 많이 나타났습니다.

와이퍼 블레이드 비교: 발레호, 에어로, 보쉬, 미쉐린, 레인-X, 피아

발레호 와이퍼 블레이드는 제조 정보가 부족하고 비슷한 코팅을 한 오토 드라이브보다 소음이 더 큽니다.

중국산 에어로 와이퍼 블레이드는 빔 스타일 구조로 수명이 길다고 주장하지만 약간의 삐걱거림이 있습니다.

보쉬 아이콘 블레이드도 빔 스타일을 사용하며 자외선 노출로 인한 성능 저하가 없고 조용한 성능을 제공합니다.

미쉐린 및 Rain-X 실리콘 블레이드는 수명이 길고 극한의 날씨에서도 성능을 제공한다고 주장합니다.

가장 고가인 피아 실리콘 어드밴티지는 발수 차단 기능과 조용한 작동을 제공하며, 피아 및 레인-X 모두 지난 1년 동안 비슷한 내구성을 보여주었습니다.

모의 비에서의 와이퍼 성능 테스트

픽업트럭에 레인 시뮬레이터를 설치하여 가벼운 비에서 중간 정도의 비 조건에서 와이퍼를 테스트했습니다.

오토 드라이브 와이퍼는 물 튀김으로 어려움을 겪은 반면, 트리코와 발레호 와이퍼는 더 나은 성능을 보였습니다.

보쉬 아이콘 및 Rain-X 와이퍼는 물을 효과적으로 관리했으며, PS 실리콘 빔 스타일 블레이드도 우수한 성능을 보였습니다.

오토 드라이브 와이퍼는 가운데에 더 많은 물줄기가 있었고, 트리코 와이퍼는 바닥 근처에 줄무늬가 있었습니다.

발레호와 트리코는 모두 왼쪽과 오른쪽 모두에서 상당한 줄무늬가 발생했습니다.

에어로 브랜드는 두 스윕 모두에서 줄무늬가 최소화되어 다른 브랜드보다 성능이 좋았으며, 보쉬 아이콘은 왼쪽에 줄무늬가 없고 오른쪽에 최소한의 물로 최고의 성능을 제공했습니다.

미쉐린 와이퍼는 왼쪽 스윕에서는 잘 작동했지만 오른쪽의 보쉬 아이콘에 비해 고전했습니다.

Rain-X 실리콘 블레이드는 두 번의 닦기 모두에서 더 나은 성능을 보인 보쉬 아이콘에 비해 줄무늬와 더 많은 물을 남겼습니다.

피아 실리콘 와이퍼는 Rain-X와 비슷한 성능을 보였으나, 보쉬 아이콘보다 더 많은 물을 남겼습니다.

시속 55마일의 가벼운 비에서는 보쉬 아이콘이 승자였지만, 그보다 느린 속도의 폭우에서는 Rain-X와 Aero도 좋은 성능을 보이며 큰 차이를 보였습니다.
