Mix together three parts of distilled vinegar with one part of water. Dip a sponge or cloth in the solution, then apply it to your windshield before it freezes over. This will prevent the ice from forming and building up on your windshield during a cold, snowy night or a spell of freezing rain. Although some people have expressed concern that vinegar eats pits into windshield glass, the consensus seems to be that it isn’t potent enough to do your windshield any damage. Vinegar is often sold in glass bottles, after all.
Although this hack won’t eliminate ice once it’s already formed, it can help prevent layers of ice from forming on your windshield. When it comes to harsh winters, I’ll entertain any hack that can make them more bearable!
