It is okay if the windshield washer fluid spills outside. Windshield washer fluid, commonly known as car windshield cleaning fluid, is a consumable item in automotive use. High-quality windshield washer fluid is mainly composed of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants, providing functions such as cleaning, antifreeze, and anti-fog. Based on its form, it can be classified into solid windshield washer fluid and liquid windshield washer fluid, with the solid type mostly used in environments above 0 degrees Celsius. There are different types of windshield washer fluids: one commonly used in summer contains insect-removing agents to quickly clean insect residues from the windshield; another is the antifreeze type designed for winter use, ensuring it does not freeze or damage car equipment even when the temperature drops below -20 degrees Celsius; and a special antifreeze type that remains unfrozen at -40 degrees Celsius, suitable for use in extremely cold regions of northern China.
