How to Clean Frost Off Car Windows Quickly

Method1. Using Warmed Rice Packets or Sodium Acetate Hand-Warmers

1.Place rice in a mitten or heavy-duty zip-lock bag and microwave for 30 seconds to a minute. You may need to make several of these to complete the job.

2.Pass the rice packet back and forth over the inside of the window while seated inside your car. This will warm the glass and the ice will melt.
•Sodium acetate hand-warmers also can be used in this manner and can stay ready in the car. A quick click activates the heat reaction, then you can recharge the warmers by boiling them in water.
•The advantage of this method over scraping, is because the glass is warmed as you start to drive it will not re-frost. Also, you stay warm and dry inside the car while prepping for departure.

3.Be careful and quick. Just like boiling water may crack glass, holding a hot warmer in one place too long may stress the glass. Only allow it to remain in place long enough to start to show melting, as it will continue to melt while moving on to a new area. Windshield wipers and rolling down the side windows can be used to clear moisture.

Method2. Preventing Window Ice

1.Cover your windows at night. One sure-fire way to ensure you’re not delayed by icy windows in the morning is to prevent ice from forming in the first place. To do so, cover your windows with a towel, a folded sheet, or a piece of cardboard at night before dew or ice forms on the window. Try to arrange the cover tight against the window so that dew (and eventually, ice) can’t form in any loose spots.
•One useful trick for your front windshield is to use your car’s windshield wipers to hold your cover in place. For your other windows, you may want to use small rocks or other weights to pin your cover down.

2.Remove the window covers in the morning. Pull your towels, sheets, etc. away from the window. They may be damp and/or icy, so, if you plan to use your window covers again at your destination, be sure to lay down a water-tight barrier, like a tarp, before throwing them in your trunk.

3.Spot-scrape any icy spots. Though this method should greatly reduce the amount of ice on your windows, there may be a few small patches remaining. Use a plastic scraper, your hand, or a similar tool to remove these if they obscure your vision. If you’re in a hurry, you may want to get in your car and use your windshield wipers in conjunction with the defroster and your wiper fluid.

TIPS
•If icing is expected, lift the wipers from the windshield surface to prevent them from being frozen to the glass.
•Make sure that wipers are set to off when shutting the car off, so that should the wipers freeze to the glass, they won’t try to start before the frost and ice has melted when the car is started.
•The blowers on cars generally don’t reach all the way down where the windshield wipers live when they’re off. Before you turn the car off for the night, pop the wipers up just an inch or so by using a quick touch on the manual wipe option. When you turn on the blower the next morning, the blades of your wipers will be defrosted first.
•Purchase a ceramic coating that you can spray on your windshield to prevent ice, frost, and snow from sticking to the glass.

Warnings
•Free windshield wipers from ice on the windshield before turning them on.
•Never pour hot water over a frosted windshield. The rapid temperature change will result in cracking the glass.
•Do not use a metal-edged shovel (or any metal object not designed for scraping windows) to scrape the frost, snow, or ice from a windshield.
•A plastic card may break or otherwise be rendered unusable after using it to clear frost from the windshield. Select a card that is expendable – or keep an expired credit card expressly for this purpose.
