Prevent frost and ice sticking to your car windscreen for six months with this simple tool

Frost and ice can cause devastation for road users in winter by sticking to a car windscreen and blocking vision of the road ahead. The journey into work or school may be a rush and motorists may not have time to pick at frost cover with a de-icer tool or leave their engine running for minutes before setting off. 

The spray will also prevent rain water from drowning a car windscreen in wet weather conditions in another major benefit for motorists

Once applied to the windscreen, the Duxback spray will is said to blow water off the windscreen instantly if a car is travelling above 40mph. 

Research from the company has shown their spray can improve visibly by a massive 35 percent when driving in the pouring rain. 

Reaction times are also said to improve by 25 percent when using the Duxback treatment on your vehicle. 

Other methods to prevent frost build-up

Duxback spray is an effective way to prevent ice and frost from sticking to a car windscreen. 

However, cash-strapped motorists who wish to save money can achieve similar results by using a range of similar methods. 

Placing a towel on the front of a car windscreen the night before an evening freeze will also prevent the worst of ice and frost cover from sticking to your car. 

This offers a protective layer between the elements and your vehicle but motorists must ensure the towel is stuck down as winds could blow this away. 

Basic tarpaulins or a makeshift cover can also be thrown over the vehicle at night which can act as a barrier over the car. 

Homemade solutions could be made in seconds and provides a cheap alternative for effective cover. 

According to LeaseCar, mixing water and vinegar can prevent frost and ice from sticking to car if the solution is applied to a glass windscreen the night before cold weather. 

Why do I need a windscreen clear?

It is against the law to drive with a frosty car windscreen as road vision is likely to be impaired without proper treatment. 

Driving without a completely clear windscreen could see you miss vital road hazards which could lead to a car accident. 

Police officers will likely issue a £60 on-the-spot fine for driving without a clear windscreen although the fines could increase if a motorist is deemed to be a dangerous driver.
