i was just wondering if you people out there used anything special for your windshield wiper fluid. i know my light is gonna come on soon and i want to put some better **** than whats in it now.

 

hahahhahah cmon! serious? washer fluid that is more aerodynamic? juss regular blue washer fluid is fine. Sometimes there is osme antifreeze in there to prevent it from freezing up but we dont relaly got that problem in the bay area.

 

The green prestone stuff is good for getting the bugs off!

 

Spit. But it takes alot to fill the container.

 

i had a friend who had the crazy idea of putting a bottle of windex in his car. boy was that funny.

 

and all this time i thought all you had to put in there was regular h2o

 

I just use regular water. LTBL don't use any kind of rainx stuff. Just makes your car harder to wash and makes the windshield wipers not work as good.

 

I just fill it with water to get rid of that anoying refill light I barely use it anyways, why with all the squeege-kids around...

 

Use the Rain-X windshield washer fluid. It's pink and contains an antifreeze agent and conditions the windshield like normal Rain-X, except it doesn't smear and cloud up when you use the wipers. The water will roll right off, and you may not need to use your wipers as frequently. Peace.

 

i use the cheapest **** i can find...usually $1 per gallon.

 

What's so silly about that?? I buy a big bottle of Windex refill, dilute it, and pour the mixture into my wiper fluid tank. Cleans very well.

 

windex has ammonia in it. he rides with his windows semi open. his windows are tinted. ammonia + tinted windows = no good.

 

I use Rain-X fluid, works pretty good.

 

Ugh.. can't stand Rain-X. You have to almost apply it with a buffer so it won't streak and then you can't get it off. Regular H2O for me.

 

The Rain-X Windshield wiper fluid isn't the same formula as the normal Rain-X conditioner that you must manually apply to the windows. The normal stuff is a biatch to apply though, you're right. The wiper fluid stuff doesn't streak or smear the water like the conditioner stuff. Maybe only when you first use it, cuz it works better if you clean the windshield before using, then it can condition it more effectively. Peace.

 

Can't use water here in the NorthEast....freezes in the winter
I heard the Prestone stuff works wel too, but I use the cheap stuff and just wash my car when I get too many bugs on it.
