The water-repellent screenwash is a major step forward for road safety. Its special formula creates an invisible film on the windscreen that naturally slides raindrops. With frost protection up to -20°C and enhanced cleaning properties, this liquid ensures optimum visibility in all weather conditions. This innovative solution allows drivers to maintain clear vision even in the most challenging weather conditions.
Rain performance on your windscreen
Water-repellent technology radically changes your experience of driving in the rain. At speeds above 80 km/h, water droplets naturally drain from your windshield, significantly reducing the need for wipers.
The hydrophobic effect acts instantly upon application via your screen wash tank. Water splashes from other vehicles slide immediately, while insect traces are more easily removed.
A simple sweep is now enough to find perfect clarity, even in the most intense showers. This advanced technology ensures better grip of the wipers on the glass surface, avoiding unpleasant squeaks in rainy weather.
A frost-resistant screen wash
Modern screen wash fluids offer outstanding frost protection, with resistance up to -20°C in their standard version. This ability prevents the system from freezing even during extreme winter temperatures.
A 5L can protects your complete circuit: tank, hoses and sprinklers remain functional even in extreme cold. The specific formulation prevents ice crystals from forming which could clog the pipes.
This protection is particularly valuable for drivers living in mountainous areas or in the north-east regions of France, where mercury regularly drops below -15°C during the winter season.
Water-repellent screen wash : the perfect solution for your car
The ease of use of the water-repellent screewash is attracting more and more drivers. A single canister is sufficient for several months of use, depending on your driving conditions. Tests show a 40% reduction in consumption compared to conventional screenwash.
Its material-friendly formula preserves the life of the wiper blades. A significant economic advantage, since you replace them at intervals.
Drivers also appreciate its discreet and pleasant scent, which replaces the aggressive odors of traditional products. Its degreasing action quickly removes traces of urban pollution and exhaust residues that usually tarnish visibility.
Operating instructions for maximum efficiency
For best results, empty your tank completely before pouring the water-repellent screenwash. This step ensures an ideal concentration of the product without dilution with old residues.
Check your tank regularly. Not enough will reduce the water-repellent effect on your windscreen.
Adopt these good practices :
- Clean your brooms before first use
- Keep a minimum distance of 50 cm from the vehicle in front
- Activate the wipers as soon as the first drops of rain
Another tip : apply a preventive spray before each long trip in the rain to maximize protection.
Guarantee of perfect visibility while driving
Water-repellent technology revolutionizes driving safety through its immediate action on visibility. Road tests show a reduction of up to 75% in the reaction time to obstacles in bad weather.
On the highway and in the city, the windscreen remains clear even under extreme conditions. A clear example: On a journey in heavy rain, the vision remains clear at 150 metres in front of the vehicle, compared to only 80 metres with a standard screenwash.
Professional drivers particularly appreciate this innovation for night trips. The reduction of light reflections considerably improves driving comfort and reduces eye strain on long journeys.
Is it not advisable to fill the screenwash tank with water ?
Filling your tank with water alone is a major risk to your vehicle. Tap water, loaded with limestone, gradually obstructs the sprinklers and damages the pipes.
In winter, the situation becomes particularly dangerous : the water freezes from negative temperatures, causing the tank and pipes to deteriorate. The resulting repairs are often costly.
Pure water also lacks essential cleansing properties. Without specific degreasing agents or additives, it is difficult to remove stubborn residues such as insect traces or road pollution. A suitable screenwash not only protects your system but also ensures optimal cleaning of your windshield.
Can the screenwash freeze ?
Standard screenwash cleaning products can actually solidify at -5°C, compromising their effectiveness. This is particularly problematic when temperatures drop sharply during the night.
To avoid this situation, use a special cold-resistant liquid up to -25°C. This reinforced formulation ensures optimal operation even in extreme conditions.
The concentration of the product plays a decisive role in its resistance to cold. An overdiluted screenwash will lose its anti-freeze properties. Strictly observe the proportions indicated on the can when mixing with demineralized water.
