Hi folks
Is prestone screenwash (winter formula) safe to use in summer.
Only apprehension is that it will have de-icer which might
strike more streaks on windshield in summer. Otherwise what stop
it from cleaning the windshield in summer too. Screenwash name
is Prestone Max visibility screenwash (winter formula).

How to Use:
Dilute the screen wash as per the instructions on the back of
the pack.
WINTER – Use neat

To reduce spillage and for greater control, you may wish to use
a funnel.

I use that screenwash until well into summer without any
problems, in fact, it may be helpful in removing dead flies.

It seems that labelling summer or winter is just marketing
tactics but obviously summer formula wouldn't be effective in
winter. Prestone is no 1 brand with only £2 more expensive than
ordinary ones but it contains all essential ingredients which
eliminate dirt, grease & grime. Can remaining washing liquid be
rubbed manually on wiper blades rubber to clean it. And can same
screen wash be used on the glass of side windows with microfiber
cloth.

it with Tesco air?

I prefer pure Waitrose myself, it's more refined. Take a jack
and make sure you expel all previous low quality air from each
tyre before refilling.
Top tip: Buying 4 jacks allows you to save money on the airline
timer.
