I bet they coat the entire car with the wax, incl. I think the "grease" is actually the wax they put on the car. I hold no grudge against those 3 folks over there. They had 60 cars needing to leave the delivery center on the day I picked up my car and only 3 people to do it. I had to de-grease everything my self (side-windows, FWD, rear, everything). ![]() I scoulded at Tesla after delivery for not going through the trouble of simply cleaning the glass. Rain-X is just an extra then, not the actual solution. Rain-X forces you to clean and de-grease which, obviously, automatically solves the problem. The problem will not go away by itself or by using other blades. ![]() I thouroughly de-greased the glass (on both sides as the inside was disgusting too) and the blades them selves and they have not smeared since. Could even see the suction-cup markings from production. Reason: the glass was still greasy as hell. My MX, delivered in Jan.2020 was also smearing right off the bat. Anyone know if there are better replacement wiper blades? I see no mention of sizes in the manual and Amazon says the much praised Model S recommended Bosch Icon replacement blades are not for the Model X. I see in the Model S threads that the fluid jets can be aligned better which would help, but the wiper blades seem so thin. May in part be my fault as I didn't think to turn on the wiper heat until I was having the problem. Eventually using the defroster and a lot of wiper fluid cleared the windshield but by then I was almost home. I used the fluid spray but it hit too high and wouldn't clear the bottom half of the windshield, and even with the top part I had to push multiple times as a lot of the spray goes up the windshield before the wiper can swipe over it. ![]() Today we had a few inches of fine snow and the blades left streaks of snow on the windshield. So far in rain they are smeary, which is disappointing for a brand new car. I see lots of complaints about the wiper blades in the Model S, but nothing so far about the Model X.
