I was out in my car last night,,,,, & after such a fine day, the weather was now a bit drizzly. I used the screen washer, then set it to intermittent.
All was well, until a car came toward me, then I couldn't’t see a thing.
It was as a film of oil or cling-film was right across my windscreen.
Driving was hell then, as each set of lights would reduce me to a crawl.
I tried scrubbing it with dry kitchen towel, (along with the wiper blade) which did seem to make it a bit better,,,, for a while.
I still have the Windscreen wash in that was there when I bought it,,,, so really have no idea what it is.
What do you guys do to make damn sure your screens are squeaky clean ?
I suppose that I have to rely on MB Screen-wash in the actual system,,,, but what can I use to manually clean the screen ?
In older cars, I have used White Spirit before, which usually does the trick, but I guess that’s a bit harsh for my new baby.
A couple of ‘drivers’ at the supermarket that I was going to suggested raw potato or vinegar. Neither of which I would mind, as long as it doesn’t effect the bodywork or wiper blade etc,,,,, & smelling like chips !
thanks for reading,,,,,
