This morning I've washed my car...because someone at work thought my car needed a wash and attempted it themselves. MISSED the lower half of the car!

Spent four hours cleaning mines then tried de-wipering it... now the rear of the car is covered in hand prints and the wiper arm is stuck on. Really disappointed. Stupid thing

how do you get it off? My boyfriends insistent I wait until tomorrow and he'll do it for me - but why am I not capable? I should be capable too, it's only a wiper :( making me a little bit sad

I've got that far, jiggled for about an hour.. tried mole grips.. tried everything. Actually just want to cry now. so aggravated it's unreal.. Sprayed WD40 on it because most people have said to, then I get told it's not penetrative. I don't even know, so annoyed  :sick:

^^Mine was a right PITA. I ended up putting a small spanner behind and belting with a hammer. I packed behind the spanner with a rag to prevent smashing the rear screen. Know how frustrating it is when 'simple' jobs become stubborn  :fighting:
