HELPFUL HINTS FOR WINTER

HELPFUL HINTS FOR WINTER

·       Keep your headlights clear with car wax!  Just wipe ordinary car wax on your headlights. It contains special water repellents that will prevent that messy glare accumulating on your lights-lasts 6 weeks.

·       Squeak-proof your wipers with rubbing alcohol!  Wipe the wipers with a cloth saturated with rubbing alcohol or ammonia.  This one trick can make badly streaking & squeaking wipers change to near perfect silence & clarity

·       Ice-proof your windows with vinegar!  Frost on its way?  Just fill a spray bottle with three parts vinegar to one part water & spritz it on all your windows at night.  In the morning they’ll be clear of icy mess.  Vinegar contains acetic acid, which raises the melting point of water---preventing water from freezing!

·       Prevent car doors from freezing shut with cooking spray!  Spritz cooking oil on the rubber seals around car doors & rub it in with a paper towel.  The cooking spray prevents water from melting into the rubber

·       Fog-proof your windshield with shaving cream!  Spray some shaving cream on the inside of your windshield & wipe it off with paper towels.  Shaving cream has many of the same ingredients found in commercial defoggers

·       De-ice your lock in seconds with hand sanitizer! Just put some hand sanitizer gel on the key & the lock & the problem is solved!
