FROST PROTECTION

well now winter is creeping in with the first signs of snow and frosty mornings what do you mgfs tfers use to proctect the windscreen from the frost. i came across a green nylon cover ome that not only covers the windscreen but the wing mirrors as well ,pic will follow soon. fingers crossed if it works or its a scrapping job at 4.30 in the morning

Get your wife to clear the snow and ice before you set off. Problem solved :broon: :lol:

I put it in the garage tonight. But I should have left it out to freeze really, as I need to test that 'defroster mod' and take some pics. Last week I left it in the garage with the roof down, warmed it up and set off in the cold to see how effective that airscarf is at keeping you warm. It works well at doing what it does and it's great to enjoy the open air when the weather is cold but still dry.

Generally, if the car is left outside I usually let it warm up, idling for 5, 10 minutes or so with the blower on full. Sometimes I put it in the garage if I know it will freeze over night. If I'm coming out of work at night then it's a scrape and de-icer spray job. Cheers Ray, you've reminded me I need a new scraper. I've used up all my old cassette tapes and boxes.

Scraper and de-icer here. :yesnod:
Any cover would probably blow off and disappear.

Credit Cards are good too, especially the duplicate that the "other half" uses :omg:
