What windshield washing fluid do you use?

[LemmysDad]

I use Unger Professional glass cleaner. The same stuff the high-rise guys use. A 8 oz. bottle makes 25 gallons, or 5 capfuls in my Ram. I paid $8 back in 2020. 32 cents a gallon is a steal for this stuff.

It's sudsy, smells pleasant, and gets the bug juice off.

Do you use rubbing alcohol to keep it from freezing? Or does it have antifreeze in it? Or maybe you’re lucky enough to live where things don’t freeze lol.

My son ran out once so we made some with some soapy water and moonshine I made a while back. Worked well but his truck smelled like 150 proof every time he used it. But it didn’t freeze in minus stoopid cold.

I’ve always just bought the cheap blue stuff. However, I follow Scotty Kilmer on YouTube and he swears by the orange RainX. What do you use?

I agree the blue stuff in the summer months -35 in the winter months. I use a RainX additive since a quart usually last months since you only add a couple of capfuls. Buy it at wal-mart.

I used to use shine slopping's strained for a diesel additive when driving my semi fond memories. Never ever had a Gel up

Walmart or Publix. Whichever is cheaper.

No freezing here. Check their website maybe you can add alcohol?

I've been using this stuff for years. It helps repel water and melts ice well. Haven't had any issues with the washer sensor either.

I'm sure there will be a few on this forum that will chime in they do the exact opposite of what Scotty recommends. He's more into sensationalism than actually reporting anything worth listening to.

Scotty is pure click bait. He used to be a respected voice in Houston but the guy is a sham now. Avoid Scotty like the plague.

That's interesting. I didn't know there was a version that was only good to zero F. They must not sell it around the North up here. Or I just haven't paid attention.

We have a "32F +" product here in south TX.

I live in the South, and I use only Rain X orange windshield glass cleaner. I can drive 60 mph in light rain, and never have to turn on the windshield wipers. The rain is blown up the windshield so, it doesn't accumulate on the glass.

Same here..hardly ever have to turn the wipers on..orange rainx..not a problem so far.
Dunno how that scotty guy has a bunch of subs.all he does is yell and dis' every maker out there.
