Best de-icers for cars to clear your windscreen this winter

You’ve got a morning appointment and you can’t be late, but it’s OK, you’re ready to go on time. Out you trot to your car and – Oh, no! The windshield’s iced over.

Do you have a scraper? Hmmm, probably not. What about your bank card? But how long is that going to take – and what if it breaks? And then there’s the back window, plus you’re going to need to see out the sides as well. You’re not wearing gloves, and your hands are going to get cold and wet…. You know you mustn’t pour boiling water on the glass or you might crack your windscreen… If only you had a de-icer spray, then you could be on your way.
