‘It’s a lifesaver’ drivers cry as they discover nifty gadget to defrost windscreens in half the time
DRIVERS have only just discovered a nifty gadget that defrosts windscreens in seconds.
The recent cold weather means drivers have been having to spend their mornings boiling their kettles before heading to work.
But a TikToker has revealed a hack that clears windows in half the time with a quarter of the effort.
The video shows a driver whipping out a yellow handheld device to solve all his problems.
The clip is captioned: “This is a life saver in the winter – an electric ice scraper.”
The device is on sale on Amazon for just £46.
Many drivers are just now learning of another handy product that can quickly defrost a car’s windscreen.
All it takes is a spray bottle, some water, and an everyday product that only costs a couple of quid.
Motoring experts at Rooster Car Insurance suggested using a solution of 90 per cent rubbing alcohol and water mixed together in a spray bottle.
Rooster said: “If you spray this solution onto your windscreen in the morning, it’ll get rid of the ice.”
They also suggested using a small sealable bag filled with warm water – not boiling – to rub on a car’s frozen windscreen.
This will help melt a thin layer of ice or snow that’s resting on top of the glass.
But Rooster said the “best thing to do” is to simply wake up on time and use the car’s heater to warm up inside and melt any ice or snow naturally.
