Can You Use Ceramic Spray on Windshield Wipers or Blades?

You’re protecting your glass with ceramic spray, but what about your wiper blades? Should you coat them too?

Short answer: No—ceramic spray like Tough As Shell is not designed for rubber wiper blades.

Why You Shouldn’t Apply It to Blades Directly

  • ❌ Can make the rubber stiff or streaky
  • ❌ May reduce wiping performance or cause chatter
  • ❌ Doesn’t bond well to soft, flexible materials like rubber

What You Can Do Instead

  • ✅ Clean wiper blades regularly with glass cleaner or APC
  • ✅ Apply Tough As Shell to the windshield only
  • ✅ Use a clean microfiber towel to buff overspray off blades if needed

Pro Tip: Use Ceramic on the Windshield for Better Wiper Performance

Ceramic spray on glass helps water bead and reduces the load on your wipers—making them work better and last longer.
