Methods to remove frost from car windows include: 1. Open both windows to allow air convection and eliminate the temperature difference on both sides of the windshield; 2. Turn on the air conditioning with both cold and hot air; 3. Wipe the glass with soapy water; 4. Use a towel to wipe off the frost. The reasons for frost on car windows are: 1. Large temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car; 2. The window temperature is below the dew point; 3. There is a temperature difference on both sides of the window. Methods for maintaining car windows include: 1. Use appropriate windshield washer fluid according to the season; 2. Apply heat-insulating film to the car windows. Methods for cleaning car windows are: 1. Pour water from the top of the vehicle and wipe off the dirty water with a sponge; 2. Use a high-pressure spray bottle to evenly apply glass cleaner solution to the window; 3. Carefully dry the water with a soft cloth.
With years of driving experience, I've mastered dealing with frost. Removal methods include manually scraping off the ice layer with an ice scraper first, then starting the engine and turning the heater to maximum, directing it toward the windshield mode, waiting for it to melt slowly; or spraying de-icer for quick results, but avoid using hot water to prevent glass from cracking. Prevention is crucial—cover the glass with an old towel, blanket, or a professional car cover after parking at night, and it'll be clean the next morning. Frost forms due to moisture condensation freezing, so try to park in dry areas and reduce humidity sources inside the car, like damp umbrellas. For safety, wear gloves to prevent frostbite while defrosting, and after clearing, test drive a short distance to ensure clear visibility before hitting the road. Regularly checking for damaged window seals is also key.
