With the arrival of winter, many car owners often have a problem with a frozen windshield. The temperature fluctuates around zero, which leads to the fact that the heated horse is covered with a thin film of ice by morning, regardless of what falls from the sky — rain or snow.
Spending expensive morning minutes waiting for the glass to fully warm up or scraping ice with a conventional scraper is not only boring, but also not productive. Therefore, it is worth considering how you can solve the problem without wasting either time or money.
The way out is for those who are prudent and are not afraid that the coating will be stolen. Even if the coating does not completely cover the glass, it is still easier to remove part of the icing than to clean the entire surface. You can cover it with a traditional tarpaulin or even a simple thick cloth, such as an old sheet.
As you know, there are special liquids that prevent icing of glasses. But the purchased and really working ones are not so little, so you should think about replacing them with homemade ones.
For example, you can use a vinegar-based mixture. If you mix three parts of vinegar (not essences) and one part of water, then a similar liquid poured into a sprayer works quite well. The only inconvenience is not to forget to process the windows before going to bed.
If the previous methods did not suit you or did not work, then one thing remains — to find a way to remove the ice quickly and simply. First, buy a good scraper, and secondly, use chemistry. For example, to quickly eliminate icing, a solution of technical alcohol or the cheapest vodka is suitable. A more humane option includes 70 percent isopropyl alcohol.
We hope that these methods will help you get rid of ice without delay and scratches.
