In winter, the problem of windshield wipers freezing to the windshield is familiar to absolutely every car enthusiast. There are not many ways to solve this simple situation, but most of them either harm the car or are unprofitable roads. For example, if you raise the wipers before leaving, the spring will lose its elasticity over time, which threatens poor performance of the windshield wipers in the future. Spraying ice with an anti-ice composition is quite an expensive pleasure.

In this life hack you will see a cheap way to easily solve the freezing problem in a couple of minutes using office protection.

How to make a windshield wiper holder and forget about wipers freezing to the glass

All you need is heat-shrink tubing and 2 types of office clips: one larger, the other smaller.

Remove the handle from the largest clamp and put heat shrink on it. Use the flame from a lighter to fix it.

Next, remove one handle from the small clamp and install the one we just made in its place.

That's all. The windshield wiper holder is ready.Install as in the photo.

There is now a gap between the wiper and the glass. Snow and water will not remain and freeze in this place.

Before the trip, you just need to bend the clamp handle up and you are ready to move.

This is definitely the easiest and most accessible method to solve this problem.
