Windscreen wipers

[bhagl1]

My windscreen wipers on my car are really faded.. How do i take my windscreen wiper of to paint them... There is the one nut on the front but how do i get them to come all the way off?

Cheers Brendon

There should be a nut, then like a plastic nut as well. Take them off, then just pull the wiper off. Might need some wiggling to get it off completely.

What he said ^^^
Just takes a bit of wiggling if they haven't been off in a while

sway them from side to side then using a large flat head screw driver and sum common sence pry them off. make sure u dont slip and damage the plastic under neath. or u could put some cloth under them after u have given them a wipe and hit them with some clear coat. will bring back the shine

Easiest and quickest way is to slacken the nut off a turn or two and turn the wipers on.

hmm, i remember marking its position before removing, made it easier when time came to put it back on.

^^Do that.

I put mine on when the wipers weren't in the right position and they caught on each and the motor burnt out so I had to replace it
