Spot on brother. Silicone is the only way to go with rainX. Imo sometimes it's an old blade can cause chatter. The rubber gets hard. Chatter can happen with new blades also. In that case clean the windows and add RainX. If the blade is loose and chattering replace the blade and use the hardware that comes with blade.
I don't always watch your stuff because I have too many channels I am subscribed to but I like the stuff you do and how committed you are to this niche! Keep up the good work, man!
Mine squeaked just as they were about to stop near the top (last 20% of travel path). And on a brand new car (few weeks old). Also leaving lines. I took it to the dealership, they inspected if it's under the right angle and put on a new blade. It was perfect for about 10mins, I was happy and then the same squeak horror again. It drives me crazy. It cleans perfect now but the high pitched hell. I've tried cleaning it (including new blades), I re-cleaned the problematic part of glass with alcohol after normal cleaner didn't do the trick; still the same. And funny thing is that it always works normal for a few minutes. The worst thing is that most of my buddies who also drive a Mazda never had that issue. Should also mention that from driving perspective left/bottom part is slightly 'dancing'; not skipping, just not fixed. Co-Driver side is perfect.
Not necessarily. Most of the time the arm would get a bit bent when changing the wiper blades. By forcing the old blade off or the new blade on can easily bend the arm enough to make the wiper skip.

This was great!
What is the reason for the bent arm? Is it like that out of the factory?

Mines work fine for like 10 to 15mins and then start chattering it’s so weird
Hmmm, did you try some of the solutions in the video?
Mine isn't so much as squeaks than thump thump thump.
Just add some dishwashing liquid to your washing water, whenever u hear the sound just give it a dose through your cars windshield cleaner
