I'm trying to avoid going through another winter having to scrape the car windows every morning so Mrs B can get off to work. Other than building a garage (not going to happen), or selling the car (I wish) here's what we have tried -
'Stop Ice' spray (supposed to prevent ice forming. Sprayed it on yesterday evening before bed: result - windows still iced up as bad as ever)
Using a car cover (result: works unless it's been raining, in which case - like today and quite often throughout the winter - you can't put it on as it sticks to the car when the rain freezes)
Blanket on the windscreen (result: blanket stuck to windscreen)
Using cardboard has been suggested, but if it rains, goes soggy, then freezes, I can see me scraping the frozen mess off next morning.
Anyone have any tried and tested preventatives?
