Not sure if this is the right place but here goes. Ive heard that if you pour in a bottle of rubbing alchohol into your windshield wiper fluid it won't freeze. I beleive it would work but would it cause any damage?



Thanks,

Just use wiper washer fluid that is rated for winter use which is -20 degrees.

 

alchohol through rubber is never good, but if it would keep it from freezing, then do it, you can always replace hoses. i have the heated washer fluid button on my 04 and never use it, that might be a solution, get dat!

 

lol i work at monument car parts so i guess ill just buy the -20 washer fluid.

i was just bein a cheap ***

 

lasst season i added alil rubbing alchol no probs i just drained it when i got home ghetto fab baby ghetto fab

 

what kind of effect, if any, do windshield fluid have on your car's paint?

 

i believe the product you are looking for is known as "antifreeze" it's a colored windshield fluid (usually blue but now available in green) that most people in canada use for their windshield fluid... and no, it does not freeze.

 

if your area is known to have below 0 temp your local store should have the special low temp fluid.
