Dec. 8th, 2005 04:54 amFor my friends in South and Central Texas in need of quick windshield deicing:
Turn on you car, turn on your defroster, turn your wiper blades to high (or grab a deicer/spatula). Go get some rubbing alcohol, and put it in a spray bottle. Liberally apply alcohol to the ice. Ice will thin out like crazy, and cracks wil form. Spray the cracks. The wipers should take care of the ice in record time.
When it's done, wipe the windshield dry. if there's much moisture on it, it'll refreeze WHILE you drive, which is a bad thing.
