the new de-icer
okay this is just random but last night the first frost set in to my town and my front window froze compleatly up. i tried the wipers and fluid with no susscess but being late i didn't want to wat another min for the window to warm up to the point were the wipers could scrap it off. So on a hunch i grab a 2 liter bottle of coke in my truck and poured it all over the window and just like magic the ice compleatly melted right off! i geuss it was from all the acid in coke. but hell for just a 1.47 for 2 liter of coke beat the hell out the price of ice scrapers and caned defrost. and how says junk food isn't good for you?

I just add a few ounces of denatured alcohol (~97% ethanol/3% methanol) to my washer fluid. Works real well on frost, not so good on solid ice (but not much does). I tried the de-icer in a spray can once, and all it did was smear snot all over my windshield.
