I use the front defroster, so as you said the build up is on the blades rather than the windshield then use the wipers on highest speed for 10 sec and most of the ice goes away :D

After 30-35min, I got a big ice & snow build up. And don't ask me why I don't run the wiper blade defrosters : it makes everything worst. They don't get hot enough to melt everything... just hot enough to turn snow into ice and then you end up with a huge ice build up ON the blades themselves.

Someone suggested to put cling wrap over the area to avoid snow buildup. That could work for when the car is parked. In this case, the buildup was while I drove...
