KIMBLADE Storms Into the Crowdfunding Scene and Obtains 100 Percent Funding on Kickstarter in Nineteen Hours

Next generation water repellant wipers are made with silicone material and incorporate 4-bar linkage technology to outperform and outlast other wipers.

KIMBLADE, the next generation of windshield wipers, has achieved 100 percent funding on Kickstarter in less than a day.

KIMBLADE has thrown out the traditional inverted triangle design and has instead, replaced it with a 4-bar linkage structure to produce a better cleaning performance. KIMBLADE wipers also come with a water repellent which covers the entire blade and is applied directly onto the windshield as it is in use. Unlike most wiper blades which are made out of rubber, the KIMBLADE is made out of silicone material, which allows the wiper to withstand harsh weather conditions for an extended period of time.

I had almost gotten into an accident one day when I was stuck on the road in the middle of a monsoon. I realized that there was a huge need to improve visibility for drivers all over the world. With that idea, I created KIMBLADE.

The KIMBLADE is perfect for individuals who take great care in maintaining their personal or work vehicles and for drivers who live in wet climates. Customers who purchase the KIMBLADE will be given adapters compatible with their vehicle of choice.

KIMBLADEs primary features include:

  • Rectangular profile blade: Utilizes 4-bar linkage technology to perform the most optimal wipe
  • Water repellent coating: Applies water repellent onto the windshield directly while in use

With Super Early Bird prices being sold out, the KIMBLADE can now be purchased for the Early Bird Price ($46) and the Regular Price ($48).
