I've been using the Rain-X washer fluid with de-icer in it for two winters and I haven't had this problem. I love this stuff as the temps here can get down to -30 C at times. This stuff combined with the heated washer nozzles will clear the ice off my windshield lickety split.

I love my Rain-X wipers. They really do work better, especially if you use them in conjunction with the window treatment.
We get a decent amount of rain/snow where I am so I appreciate the Rain-X blades which keep a nice coating of Rain-X on your windshield so things bead easily. I've used Bosch Icon's in the past and prefer the Rain-X blades
Rain X. Had my hood fly up and push the blade through the windshield. Replaced the windshield, kept the blade.
I went with RainX Latitudes for my Scion tC. They work better than the stock wipers and they see snow, ice and rain.
rain-x blades. cheap and very reliable, once they lose a little bit of that 'rain-x' effect, just damp a rag with rain-x and rub the wiper blade.
I love rainx, in heavy rain at speeds above 40mph, it is magic. Anything lower that that, you need to use wipers and it streaks then.
A few weeks ago I was running out of washer fluid and decided to refill with rainx de-icer since it was on sale, it's been very cold and I wasn't planning on bringing my car in for service for a while. Last week the wash fluid light came on again.
Wiper Blade Stuff I ended up buying blades for $50 a pair...and by the way never use Rain-X or similar type products on your windshield, it makes your wiper blades clatter
I HATE Rain-x. It has never failed to make my wipers chatter and skip.
