Re: Wiper arm removal???
Since I have crusty paint (mostly rust around the wiper arms), I've just used a large, flat blade screwdriver and gently pried them off. I have no clue what the nice paint folks are doing

Plastic pry bar with a piece of wood or something to protect the paint. Might try some penetrant first to help loosen the (age) crud.

Re: Wiper arm removal???
I bought a Lisle# 65750 wiper arm removal tool from Summit and, once I got used to it, wonder how I ever removed the wiper arms from either of my C10s before. It works very well.

Re: Wiper arm removal???
I usually use a small screwdriver and a piece of rubber to protect the paint but it scares the hell out of me every time I do it
