front windscreen + wipers

when its wet, and funnily enough im upsing my wipers, there seems to be like a residue left on my windscreen, it is like a lot of water is left behind in funny shapes, and meaning it is a bit wierd to look out of, although i wack the heater on the window and when it begins to warm up it gets rid if it, do i need new wiper blades?
theres no squeaking or anything??

New wipers will solve it then.

I would give the screen a really, really good clean first. Those screen polishers/sovents/coatings can last months and might look good but they can really screw up the wiper cleaning process.

I get this.

I had a new windscreen fitted a month ago and haven't yet used anything other than car washing liquid to clean the whole car.

Gonna invest in some new wipers and get back to using RainX.

I had something similar on mine, turned out my screen was covered in lots of very fine scratches. I gave it a rub with t-cut for glass and fitted some new wipers, much improved. If it comes back I think it'll be warranty time.
