I'd say the ice patch is abt 2 or 3 ft long and about 6ft wide. Don't go if you don't have awd/winters :/

At least car came out pretty clean and yes it froze a lot. Just a bit of water mark from where the ice froze but pretty happy for a $6 job

Gotta go back again. My car came out a bit dirty after the wash. And my windows are still dirty also.

I'm sure most of you guys seen a video like this at one point or another. Or even on the news back in 2008.
However....this one, happened just yesterday... just south of us in Seattle.

TypeRNammer 11-23-2010 09:09 PM

Not bad, I think my car got more dirty after the 2nd wash.

Rear window still has the same results as the first wash LOL.

ilvtofu 11-23-2010 09:24 PM

^Is it from the water freezing or what? I noticed my front window got really dirty from the ice melting and then driving on the highway :/ best bet next time is bring chamois along with ice scraper I guess

MG1 11-23-2010 09:26 PM

Guys, that would be salt.
