windshield (wiper) question

ok, this is driving me nuts. So hopefully I'll be enlightened.

How do you get rid of the windshield wiper streaks that you get on a rainy night? The streaks "go away"/dry when the wipers don't wipe as fast, but on a rainy night when I have the wipers set to "low" or "high", the streaks never go away.

My wipers are about 4 months old, and they don't shudder when they wipe.

thanks!

I had this problem on my 85 and it turns out that it isn't a wiper problem, but the wiper arms. What happens (on mine anyways) is the arms lose their pressure that they apply to the wipers to get the clean windshield we all want. I changed the arms on mine and they worked great ever since!
