Update: I went home between my two jobs to wash the windshield (with Adam's Car Shampoo) and to clean the blades with wiper fluid. At first, it seemed like that solved it, but as I drove to work in the rain, it didn't seem to help at all. They're still chattering. But here's the strange part - If I run the wipers with the truck's wiper fluid, there's no chatter whatsoever. And there's very little chatter if I keep the intermittent setting set to super slow, because the windshield is completely covered in rain at that point. So should I get new wipers? I don't understand any of this, because the wipers worked before I cleaned and sealed the windshield, when it was covered in obvious contamination. And for what it's worth, it definitely looks noticeably cleaner and clearer, now. I've got to do something because the chatter is driving me freakin' bonkers. Thanks for the help, guys.

I have a brand new, 2017 Silverado, and I noticed right away that all the glass had some contamination from the transport truck, which isn't abnormal. So, this weekend, I finally had some time to go out and take care of it. I used a Mother's clay bar [i was out of my Adam's bar] with my Adam's glass cleaner, and got all the funk off. Then, I sealed the window with my Adam's glass sealant, and then finished the job with the Adam's glass cleaner, again. I used the appropriate Adam's applicator pad and window cleaning towel for the job. I've done this job quite a few times on my own vehicles, and for a couple of friends and have never had a problem. But today on my way to work, it was raining, so I had to use my wipers. They started chattering like crazy! They were not doing that before I cleaned and treated my windshield, so I have no idea what I could have done wrong. Again, I'm not a total noob at this job, as I've done it several times with great success. Does anybody have any tips on something I can try to get the chatter to go away? As I mentioned earlier, the truck is brand new, only 800 miles on it now, so the wipers don't need to be replaced or anything like that. Thanks for the help! You guys always have the right answers...

AdamEL replied to AdamEL's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
Thanks, guys. It already has safety cables, which is what saved my car, I guess. I do have a further problem now, though. The tech came to examine the door, and it's the spring (and cables) that are broken. As a result, he could only shut the door for me until Monday when he will be back with the parts. Therefore, I can't get my car out of the garage until Monday night. Is there anything I can do in the meantime? I have a full bottle of waterless wash, a gallon of detail spray, and just about everything else, but I can't get the hose in the garage to wash it off. I'm concerned that leaving those metal fragments on the car for that long might damage my finish. I've worked so hard at keeping it perfect, I'd be really upset if this ended up causing permanent damage. Thanks in advance.
