Windshield Washer Fluids Talk

[7138]

Rainy season is here, and madalas na gamitin ang wipers and windshield washers natin.
Do these product perform better than regular water? Do these fluids have shelf life na may drain interval pa?
Hingi ako suggestions..

[crazy_boy]

the washer fluid helps in cleaning the windshield lalo na kung madumi. it also lubricates.

1. Wag ka gagamit ng tubig poso sa water reservoir.
2. Kung OC ka sa water spots, gumamit ng distilled water (ex. Wilkins)
3. Lagyan mo ng konting JOY ung tubig, pampadulas din un.

Ung wiper pag hindi na pantay ang hagod, palitan mo na, mas mura ang wiper kesa ma-accident ka.

Wag iinom ng Beer/Gin/Whiskey para uminit ang katawan kung gusto mo mag-drive pag tag-ulan.

Other put Shampoo/Liquid Detergent solution as a washer fluid...Is this safe and effective?

[stickers]

Eto gamit ko

After cleaning/car wash. Yung dilaw ipapahid sa glass then let it dry for a few minutes.. maghahaze yung glass then ipopolish sya manually.. medyo mahirap ipolish kelangan talaga may pwersa... ipektib talaga sya.. you will notice the water droplets slide and roll over like there's a coating of oil sa glass pag umuulan.. yung blue naman na liquid, half nun ihahalo sa washer reservoir.


I heard mas ok daw shampoo or Joy liquid dishwasher isama sa washer reservoir, how true?

Ang problem ko ngayon, yung wiper blades ko kakapalit ko lang last April during the MIAS kaso maganit na ngayon, nilalagyan ko ng Glaz No Squix kaso after a while maganit na naman..

^ Won't the degreasing chemical of Joy strip the wiper blade off its natural oil in the rubber?

I just use filtered drinking water. When the car was new, I spent a lot of money on Wilkins.

Agree bro.

An ounce of prevention is unquestionably more desirable than a ton of cure.....(ang sarap pa namang uminom kapag umuulan.... kape na lang...

I just buy the Toyota OEM washer fluid and use it on our cars. Cost is around P 100 or so if i recall correctly (1L).

[Chikselog]

I use Microtex Wiper Bead. 190 ata for 2 liters. No need to dilute. Effective in both cleaning and coating the glass with a bit of rain repellant. Booster ng Stain Guard.

Sir anung kulay nito? though wala naman bearing sakin ang color, gusto ko lang malaman,
may mga shops din ba na nagbebenta sa banawe nito? might try this one.

or

any of you guys tried polyglaze windshield washer fluid? eto kasi madalas ko makita sa ace.

[non-vtec]

I regret buying the ones available at blade for 88. It left a nasty watermark on my newly painted hood. From now on, Ill just use filtered or distilled water.

[Retz]

^

anong brand yan sir? may nakita ako sa blade ung mga malalaking container na washer fluid mura lang.

It's clear. The Toyota stores in Banawe (I.e. Toyorama) should have this AFAIK.

Mga paps,

i have been using filtered water with joy for the past 14 years and it is effective heheheh. walang mansta sa hood, walang bara sa nozzle and nalilinis pa yung glass mo especially during very light rain on the highway wherein most of the dirt, oil, asphalt oil is sticking in the windshield.

HTH.

[Retz]

^

sure ka sir? may nabasa ako dati na wag daw gamitin joy as winshield washer.....

[mcbry]

i'm using distilled water. so far so good

[brainmafia_310]

^

bakit daw boss? ang masama tap water (especially dito sa cavite na sobrang hard water) then joy ang effect, mas mabilis mamuo sediment at pagnaarawan yung patak ng tubig makikita mo agad yung markings.

pero kung filtered (soft water, mas ok syempre distilled pero for me overkill) wala ka makikitang marks. make sure lang pure joy ilalagay kasi yugn iba diba dinidilute ng tap water.

Retz as far as you can recall,ano daw magiging bad effect ng joy sa windshield?:question::dishwash:

[Noel Salisipan]

Agree with filtered or mineral water plus liquid soap. Practical na wala pang maraming abubut sa garahe.

4liters pa naman capacity nung isang washer fluid ko, kaya impractical kung gagamit ng fluid worth 100pesos per liter.

Baka kung yung binibili pa sa carshop ang ilalagay e hindi luminis yung windshield, manghinayang dun sa kapipindot sa washer fluid.hehehe
