Frequent windshield scratches on Mini Cooper in Pakistan – causes and solutions

I’ve noticed that the windshield on my Mini Cooper develops scratches o r streaks quite easily, especially after using wipers on dusty o r sandy roads. Given Pakistan’s rough urban streets and construction dust, this seems common. Have other Mini Cooper owners faced similar issues? What causes these scratches most—wiper blades, debris, o r cleaning methods? Are there recommended products o r protective films to prevent further damage?

Scratches on Mini Cooper windshields in Pakistan are usually caused by:

Dust, sand, and grit on the windshield that get dragged by wiper blades.

Old o r hard wiper blades scratching the glass.

Improper cleaning methods, like using abrasive cloths o r brushes.

Solutions:

Replace wiper blades regularly every 6–12 months in dusty areas.

Use microfiber cloths and automotive glass cleaners when washing.

Consider a windshield protective film o r coating to prevent minor scratches.
