Tips For Winter Car Maintenance 


With winter also comes the problem of frost and ice build-up on your car’s windshield. It can be a frustrating experience to go out to your car and find that the windshield is covered in a layer of ice or frost, making it difficult to see while driving. But, there are a few clever tricks that can help you prevent or reduce the amount of frost and ice on your windshield overnight.


Here are some top clever car tricks for winter:

  1. Use a Windshield Frost Cover: This is a simple and effective solution to keep frost off your windshield overnight. Simply place the cover over the windshield before you go to bed and remove it in the morning.
  2. Towel on the Windshield: Place a towel over the windshield before you go to bed. The towel will absorb any moisture, preventing frost from forming on the windshield.
  3. Prevent Ice on Windshield Overnight: To prevent ice from forming on the windshield overnight, pour warm water over the windshield before you go to bed. This will melt any ice that may have formed and prevent it from refreezing.
  4. How to Keep Windows from Frosting Up: Keep windows from frosting up by turning on the defrost function on your car’s heating system. This will help to remove any moisture from the windows and prevent frost from forming.
  5. How to Unfreeze Windshield Wipers: If your windshield wipers are frozen to the windshield, you can unfreeze them by using a plastic scraper or by pouring warm water over them.
  6. How to Get Ice Off Windshield: To get ice off your windshield, you can use a plastic scraper or a solution of hot water and vinegar. You can also use de-icing sprays specifically designed for car windows.

By using these clever tricks, you can make your car winter-ready and keep frost and ice from building up on your windshield, making your driving experience much safer and more enjoyable.
