Windshield Wipers

Hello,

what is the best thing to use to keep the windshield wipers off the windshield while it is in storage or not traveling? I have tried using tennis balls but the spring for the wiper arm is too strong, I keep the wipers covered but I think it would be better to have them not pressed against the windshield all the time.

Thanks,

Paul

I put a piece of sliced pool noodle around each blade.

I pop the blades off and put them inside the RV while in storage. I set them so I see them to remind me to put them back on.

For long term stays, I just cover my wiper blades with pieces of foam pipe insulation cut to length. I haven't seen any need to take the pressure off of them, but our coach doesn't go into storage for months at a time either.
