What is De-icer? First we calculated the costs of each in their winter and summer mixes. For the former we chose coverage down to about -10C, where there was a choice of mixes. It will help keep your car in good condition – screen wash is specially developed for cars, so you know that it’s safe to use. If you use water or household cleaners, there’s a risk of damaging the paintwork over time, so we’d always recommend high-quality screen wash. We understand that a lot of drivers like to save on the cost of motoring, and one such cost-cutting measure is to ditch screen wash in favour of plain old water. Sadly, water doesn’t deliver anywhere near the performance of high-quality screen wash, for two simple reasons.

Screenwash is a liquid that you pour into your vehicle that helps to clean the front and rear windscreen of your vehicle. Ingredients of a screenwash will vary depending on the product you opt for.Frozen windscreens and the perils of ice and snow on the roads are most prevalent throughout the UK during the coldest months in January and February, but condensation can freeze as early as November. Now that you know the preventative measures to take against freezing temperatures, let's look at some solutions to try today. 7 Homemade De-Icing Sprays You Can Make Right Now

Opting for commercially available de-icers specifically formulated for ice melting can help ensure more predictable and efficient results, while also minimizing the risks associated with homemade alternatives. Featured De-Icing Products Potential damage to property and vegetation: Homemade de-icers can contain ingredients that are corrosive and may cause damage to surfaces such as concrete, metal, or wood. Additionally, the residue left behind by these de-icers can stain or deteriorate surfaces over time. Moreover, their chemical composition might harm nearby vegetation, causing damage to plants and grass;https://cdn.opieoils.co.uk/images/variants/large/fuchs/fuchs-maintain-screen-wash-de-icer-all-seasons-concentrate-1-litre-makes-up-to-10-litres-1.jpg The first reason is that it freezes, which doesn’t bode well on frosty winter mornings. If water freezes in the wash reservoir or jets, it could cause lasting damage when you try and spray the screen wash, and this will cost you money to repair. The Highway Code clearly states that "windows and windscreens must be kept clean and free of obstructions to vision". During the winter months, this is particularly relevant – you must clear the ice (or snow) from all of your windows, as well as both the front and rear screens, before driving. This also applies to condensation that forms inside the car.

Filling your screenwash tank with just water is not advisable. Although it will work to remove superficial light dust or stains from your windscreen in warmer months, in winter, it will likely freeze, meaning you won’t be able to use the water in the screenwash tank. https://cdn.opieoils.co.uk/images/variants/large/fuchs/fuchs-maintain-screen-wash-de-icer-all-seasons-concentrate-5-litres-4.jpg https://cdn.opieoils.co.uk/images/variants/icon/fuchs/fuchs-maintain-screen-wash-de-icer-all-seasons-concentrate-1-litre-makes-up-to-10-litres-3.jpg https://cdn.opieoils.co.uk/images/variants/large/fuchs/fuchs-maintain-screen-wash-de-icer-all-seasons-concentrate-1-litre-makes-up-to-10-litres-7.jpghttps://cdn.opieoils.co.uk/images/variants/medium/fuchs/fuchs-maintain-screen-wash-de-icer-all-seasons-concentrate-1-litre-makes-up-to-10-litres-4.jpg We now put Bitrex in our screenwash and antifreeze products, to help protect your family.
