What is everyone using to scrape the ice off their car windows when it gets icey?

I used a store a store discount card I had in my wallet the other day but I could only get 20% off

Get up ten minutes earlier and put the heater/heated front screen on to do the work.

Usually clear in a couple of minutes in the Jag with the heated windscreen, oh and stick the heated seats on for good measure too, keeps the hairless girly parts warm!

I'm boring... A combination of a can of de-icer and my warm breath on the really stubborn bits...

Easiest and quickest way i find is keep a plastic bottle in the kitchen cupboard. Fill it with hot water before leaving the house. Pour it over your windows and mirrors to clear them quicker than deicer or scrapers ever will.

Your windscreen will endure a hell of alot more than tap hot water.

Unless I've been lucky for 20 years.

Hot water on a cold screen = crack

Also weakens it

I must be lucky as well, because hot water has never cracked my windscreen either.

Hot water on a windscreen is fine unless you already have a chip or crack. Unblemished, they'll be fine.

On the other hand d boiling water freezes quicker than warm water.

Oh,and I'm sure I read that leaving the car on to defrost while you wait indoors is illegal.

I miss my heated windscreen. Ford patent will have run out now so most new cars should have something similar these days.

While I'm slumming it in a Peugeot I use my scraper with integrated glove. Winner.

I start the car and sit and cry in the drivers seat, sobbing how cold my toes are. I turn the blowers in to dry my face. After 10 mins the window clears. It works for me.

I don’t

I put the heaters on and lock the car and come back when it’s all toasty. Or I pay the child to do it

When it's so cold that it's frozen on the inside I sit in there with the blowers on and scrape the screen to make a snowstorm

Me too as it’s all I’ve ever used on every car. Refuse to use de-icer but too impatient to wait for it to warm up. Only use slightly warm water though never hot!!

I use water as I've found it clears quicker than deicer. Lukewarm water only as I have seen a neighbour smash their screen with what must have been almost boiling water.

I’ve used a proper scraper and a card when I couldn’t find that. Then I realised if you just turn on your widescreen heater and wait, it takes about the same time with much less effort!
