The so-called glass water is a commonly used term for car windshield cleaning fluid, which belongs to consumables used in automobiles. Generally speaking, there are three types of glass water in the retail market of our country's supplies: one commonly used in summer, which adds insect repellent to the cleaning solution to quickly remove flying insect residues that hit the windshield; A type of antifreeze glass cleaning solution specifically designed for winter use, ensuring that even when the external temperature is below -20 ℃, it will not freeze and damage car facilities; One type is a special antifreeze type, ensuring that it does not freeze even at minus 40 ℃, suitable for use in the coldest areas in the northernmost part of China.
When you feel that the transparency of the car's front windshield is poor, spraying a spray of glass water can give you a "clear and clear" view. Especially when driving at night, glass dust can scatter light, so it is necessary to spray glass water to keep the front windshield in the best transparent state. In addition, in dusty environments and on rainy highways, the consumption of glass water can be very fast.
Some car owners believe that glass water is just for cleaning the front windshield, as long as it can clean and remove dirt. The washing powder water and detergent used in daily life also have this effect, so they mix a little water with detergent, detergent, laundry detergent, etc. to replace the specialized glass water, feeling that this is cheap and worry free; Some car owners directly replace glass water with clean water. In fact, this approach has certain hidden dangers.
For example, when washing detergent with water, there may be some sediment in the water. Over time, it not only corrodes the rubber tube, but also blocks the nozzle, which in severe cases can damage the motor. General detergents are alkaline and have a certain degree of corrosiveness to rubber, which can accelerate the hardening of the catalytic wiper strip. When the hardened strip scrapes the windshield, it will accelerate the scratching and scratching of the surface of the windshield. If the wiper is replaced, the cost will be dozens of times the price of glass water.
The risk of using water instead of glass water is relatively small. But it should be noted that ordinary tap water also contains a lot of impurities. Over time, impurities will adhere to the rubber tube, affecting normal water spraying. Long term use may increase the friction between the glass surface and the wiper, causing scratches on the glass. The master said that clean water can only simply clean dust, and does not have the ability to thoroughly clean the dirt and insect bodies attached to the car windows.
