    I just use Tap water, you can use distilled water / wiper washer solution available at Hans, True Value, Ace Hardware outlets

    add alcohol too (isopropyl) to make the fluid evaporate faster after you spray it on the glass.

    won't the effluents in tap water clog the washer nozzles and parts?

    It may clog the nozzles, mine was. Just use a needle to clean it.

    I use filtered water from our own faucets, to avoid clogging and I mix it with windshield wiper fluid.

    ako kasi i use ordinary water lang. at first ok naman, pero the longer you drive, yung mga tumatalsik sa windshield mo (like road oils, grime and stuff) di na kaya tanggalin ng tubig..so papangit na yung visibility mo.

    any brands of windshield wiper formula recommended?
