=========================== your best bet is probably to clean the windshield very well.
Have you replaced just the rubber, or the entire blade? For the blade, what brand? Use a quality brand and make certain it's securely mounted. Some generic blades have sloppy mounts designed to fit a huge number of vehicles. You may even want to consider factory original blades from the dealer, despite the cost.
Ideally, there should be NO coatings on the windshield. Those anti-fog coatings usually make things worse. One way to really clean it is to use Bon-Ami, which is a very soft cleanser that will scrape off gunk without scratching the glass.
Basically, water should form a sheet on glass, not bead up.
