What to Do When Car Windows Freeze in Snowy Weather?

[HectorMarie]

Here are the solutions for dealing with frozen car windows in snowy weather: 1. Use lukewarm water to remove ice. When the ice on the windshield is not too thick, soak a cloth in lukewarm water (40-50°C), gently wipe the windshield several times, and then rinse with water at around 40°C. This usually clears the ice effectively. Avoid using hot water to melt the ice, as although it works faster, the drastic temperature difference can easily cause the windshield to crack. 2. Use warm air to defrost. Start the car and, once the engine warms up, direct the warm air toward the windshield until the ice melts. However, this method has drawbacks, such as being time-consuming, labor-intensive, and fuel-consuming. 3. Physical ice removal. Use a specialized ice scraper for car windows, which is more convenient, quick, and keeps your hands from freezing. When there is snow or ice on the glass, use a plastic scraper or a dedicated ice scraper to remove it.
