Dealing with a frosty windshield on cold mornings? This reliable homemade de-icer, tested in real winter conditions, melts ice instantly using just two ingredients: water and 90% alcohol.
Contents - 90% alcohol (isopropyl or rubbing alcohol)
- A spray bottle

1. Fill about 1/3 of the spray bottle with water.
2. Top it off with 90% alcohol to make 2/3 of the bottle.
3. Shake well to mix thoroughly.
4. Head to your ice-covered car.
5. Spray generously on the windshield.
6. Wait just a few seconds—the ice melts right before your eyes.
7. Run your wipers to wipe away any residue.
The ice vanishes in seconds, leaving a clear windshield ready for the road. No more scraping, harsh chemicals, or waiting for the defroster. This natural mix is eco-friendly, with no groundwater risks. Keep a bottle in your car—it won't freeze, perfect for emergencies.
Maintain the exact ratio: 1/3 water and 2/3 90% alcohol for best results. If unavailable, household alcohol works too.
Frozen door lock? Spray a bit of the mixture in before inserting your key—it unlocks smoothly every time.
