Stay away from these washing myths – Car Windshield
Partial or little knowledge on any subject or aspect may gradually give rise to myths. This remains the same in terms of the windshield and other parts of a car. Speaking from the experience of an expert technician, people in India often choose to believe in many myths associated with the windshield. In our experience, these are a few myths associated with a windshield that Indians commonly believe:
Using only water is enough to clean the windshield
If you own a Ritz car, washing only with water will not clean the Ritz window glass. Leaving the cumbersome task to the well-equipped washer fluids is better. Washer fluids are manufactured to clean the dirt from the windshield and water is not nearly as effective. Unlike water, washer fluids do not freeze in winters and thus, the adverse effects and damages on the jets from the expansion of water can be avoided. Washer fluids are specifically designed car products that can never be substituted with water.
Investing in washer fluids is a waste
Washer fluids are specially manufactured mixtures for the windshield. These chemical combinations are super effective in wiping off any kind of dirt and make the shine last longer. Good washer fluids have a freezing point below 0 degrees, and thus are a prudent option for the winters.
Household washers are equally good as washer fluids
Although people often prefer to use household washers over washer fluids, it may not be a good idea. Household washers are not designed to clean the windshields so choosing a professional washer fluid is better. The conventional household washers leave foam that is difficult to wash off and often stays behind on the windshield. Also, these washers may contain chemicals that can damage or corrode the surface of the windshield, and you may have to pay for your i10 or Ritz front glass price and get the windshield replaced.
You do not have to wash the windshield every season
Washing the windshield every season seems unproductive to many car owners but is essential. Since, the windshield of a car is always exposed to direct sunlight, dust, rain, pollution, etc., frequent washing and cleaning of the windshield are essential. While washing in rainy seasons may seem ludicrous, twigs and leaves on the windshield that can block the view should be removed every day. Dirt and grime settling on the windshield during summers can obstruct the view of the driver and the reflection of harsh sunlight on the dirty windshield obstructs the clear view of the road. This increases the number of casualties on the road. So, it is strictly advisable to use good washer fluids to clean the car’s windshield.
