Chance has it that if you live in the United States right now, you’ve been experiencing some chilly weather! Last week, I woke up to find my car windows covered in a layer of ice; and of course, I had no ice removal items on hand. So, naturally, I came up with this magical ice remover to help me out!
If you live in a place that experiences frequent cold snaps, it’s always a good idea to stay prepared. If you’re anything like me and can never seem to find something to remove ice from your car windows, this spray is a great thing to keep on hand. Ours stays under the kitchen sink with the other cleaning supplies.

Magical is definitely the right word! I’d no idea that water and vinegar could melt ice. Thanks for sharing this!

I have never heard of this, but SO good to know!! I’m always sitting in the car waiting for the ice to melt!
Sam says
It’s the worst isn’t it?!

I have heard this may cause pitting in the glass, as well as the paint. Have you seen any evidence of this?
Sam says
I haven’t at all; some of the research I did suggested that as long as you don’t leave vinegar on for long periods it shouldn’t do harm.
Jess says
If I keep a bottle in my car will it freeze?
Sam says
It depends on how cold it is where you are. Vinegar requires a colder temperature to freeze, but it will freeze. I have also heard you can add alcohol to lower the freezing point even more, but I haven’t tried it yet. I’m planning on testing it out during our upcoming cold burst.
