Okay, so my 1970 isn't a "resto", but I have new paint, and I want the wiper arms to look decent...

The "arms" look okay, but aa bit 'stained", whats a good way to clean then? or maybe a close paint color...

I also need a "close" paint color for the outer arms, blade-holders... Some previous owner replaced them with "black" pieces... And it seems like parts store pieces are also "black"...

Although I am on a budget (even moreso after the wife saw the American Express bill and realized all the ancillary stuff i bought didn't include the actual "paint job")...

SO, I'll probably spring for the outer arm/blade assemblies from Ground Up, but not the whole assembly...

I searched and found lots of posts about wiper motors, but little about blades...

Thanks...

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I've seen the bright aluminum ones on ebay, do a search for NOS Trico and know the length. They are interchangable with a lot of different cars.
