You can also just make your own washer fluid. Look up a recipe online.
It’s something like combining water, a bit of rubbing alcohol, and a little dish soap. Super cheap and eco friendly.
That sounds like it would freeze, no?
Oh good point. I live in temperate climate.
But perhaps the rubbing alcohol keeps it from freezing.
That’s an unfortunate name…
No, it’s a great name. I want Superpiss merch.
Right?! Who do I have to fuck to get a SUPERPISS hat over here?
Who do I have to blow to get a bumper sticker saying: “Powder by Superpiss”?
Probably contains urea to reduce the freezing point.
Most likely not, we’re already having trouble with adblue (basically just urea) freezing, especially in the northern parts. There was recently some piece of news where a repair shop in Lapland was up to their neck in repair orders for emissions control systems due to frozen adblue liquid.
Practically all washer fluid sold in Finland uses some alcohol as the deicer, typically just your normal denatured ethanol. I’d also think having urea in the washer fluid would wreak absolute havoc on some parts that get exposed to it – I’m under the impression that it’s quite nasty stuff for many different materials.
Yeah, but -54DegC?! Minus fifty four!
Does it really get that cold in Finland?
Yes, with safety margin. You gotta be safe.
