Default WIPER BLADES / ARMS

Im having problems with driver side wiper blade or arm.
When in use, on the up sweep it clears the screen but when it goes back down it leaves an unwashed area.

Ive tried 2 different new sets of blades, checked the angle of the blade to the screen but still no difference. If I put a slight pressure on the arm {next to nothing} it clears the screen perfect.

Any ideas to fix this.

Might be stupid, but have you tried spoiler blades, maybe a treatment of rain X ??

I had them, thought they were no good, put Bosch spoilers(both sides) from halfords - no problems now, I had lifting issues with these, failing that maybe the inner spring tension is shot ??
