im starting to run out of screen wash and was wondering what one people recommend. did a search and only one i could see is lidl... and i dont have a lidl near me. lol
gotta be good at cleaning the crap of the window with no smearing and wont freeze up on me... preferably at a reasonable price too.

Lidl!!! they have the w5 windscreen cleaner, 1:100 dilution which i think is 89 or 99p each for 250ml, ive got 2 and so far so good

:bang:

thats why i was asking for other recommendations.

If halfords is local then autoglym quick clear screenwash is good

been tempted to try it... but for screen wash, it aint exactly cheap.

that auto glym stuff goes down to minus 50 lol

Watch out: a lot of cheap screenwash may attack your paint...!!
Sonax screenwash concentrate+ distilled water is a very good combination !!

I use http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/...uctId_220805_langId_-1_categoryId_229902#dtab

comes in a few different flavours but apple smells awesome lol

I guess at £4 its expensive but ive only just finished off a bottle ive had over 2 years!
only need a little in a whole tank. removes grime/insects quickly. dries very quick.

oh and it smells of apple
altho when i go to halfords for more i might crack open some of the others and see what they smell like lol

to be fair, £4 for a litre dont seem too bad when u think that 500ml bottle of auto glym wash is a tenner on ebay.... may give it a go. dont care on the smells tho. as long as it does the job well im happy.

where is the best place to get this? not one ive heard of tbh. had a quick google on it and there seems to be quite a few varieties. recommendations on a particular one?

http://www.sonax.com/Car-Care/Produ...eme-Antifreeze-clear-view-Concentrate-NanoPro

I don't know where to get it in the UK, just ask around.

Another very good screenwash concentrate is sold by Shell...!
It is almost as good as Sonax.
Remember to use distilled water, as this keeps the washers clean, tap water may clog them with chalk over time....

There was 3x500ml ag screenwash for £9.99 including postage, it still cant beat the value of w5 screenwash 250ml for 99p(25 litres/ 1:100 ratio)

yeah, i just got it... will give it a go. anyone know the dilution rate for ag screenwash?

Without hesitation I would say the sonax quickclear. Someone on Ebay had it, plus i think VW and Vauxhall carry it at their dealers branded as their own. Autoexpress also rated it their best buy. If Lidl have it grab the W5 stuff as it appears to be the same if not similar. I am currently using ASDA's £1 readymixed stuff with good success as the sonax isnt suitable for the cold cold weather.

As you have to dilute the Sonax with ( distilled) water yourself, you can go as low as you like, even temps you will never see in this part of the world...!!

i meant dilution of the auto glym stuff. just got 3 bottles for a tenner.

Yes, can't beat Sonax, I use it in the summer and is superb with bug and grime removal, but not sure on its winter protection so then go over the the Lidl screen wash.

Oh right. I use this

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Sonax-Clearvi...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item53e6181ccd

The Clear View. Just I don't ever recall seeing it say anything about freeze protection on the bottle.

It's a different Sonax product....!
