Here's a question for the forum members to ponder over, de-icing the car :hmm:
My car has a heated windscreen so a couple of minutes and its OK, but MrsC's older car has always been left engine running and scraped when needed!
I saw a guy the other day de-ice his car with a jug of warm water, I asked him if he'd had any problems doing it as I thought if the windscreen heated too quickly it would crack :? He told me the water was only just warm and he'd been doing it for years without a problem.
So needless to say had a dig around 'tinternet and found some people just use cold water and this is enough to de-ice and use a squeejee and clear it that way, others use warm water ........ and others who say the screen will crack doing it that way, so how do you defrost yours
