Default Don't use the windshield washer fluid add-on treatment.

The stuff you buff on the windows is OK.

The windshield washer stuff will gum up the screen at the windshield washer fluid refill opening. Don't ask me how I know.

Default works great if you drive fast all the time.....

like on the highway. The only thing I did not like is when I had to use the wipers (in town), it caused the water to form many tiny beads which were hard to see through and made night driving difficult.
