Autoglym - 500ml De-Icer

Product Overview

Autoglym 500ml De-Icer is a high‑performance de‑icing spray designed to rapidly melt frost, ice, and snow from vehicle windows, mirrors, and locks. Packaged in a convenient 500 ml bottle, it delivers a concentrated formula that works effectively even at temperatures as low as –50 °C.

Key Features & Benefits

• Fast‑acting formula that melts ice in seconds without re‑freezing.
• Water‑free composition reduces residue and protects glass surfaces.
• Safe for use on windscreens, side windows, rear windows, mirrors, door locks, and plastic trim.
• Easy to apply with a spray nozzle that ensures even coverage.
• Non‑corrosive and environmentally friendly.
• Compact 500 ml size ideal for on‑the‑go use in winter kits or personal car care collections.

How It Works

The de‑icer contains a specialized solvent blend that lowers the freezing point of water, allowing ice to melt at temperatures well below 0 °C. When sprayed onto frozen surfaces, the solution penetrates the ice layer, breaking hydrogen bonds and turning solid ice into liquid water in just a few seconds.

Application Instructions

1. Shake the bottle gently to mix the contents before each use.
2. Hold the spray at a distance of 10–15 cm from the surface.
3. Spray evenly across the entire area, covering all frozen spots.
4. Allow 30‑60 seconds for the solution to act; you will see ice melt into clear water.
5. Use a wipe or cloth to remove any remaining moisture if desired.

Ideal Use Cases

• Morning rush: Quickly defrost windshields before driving.
• Emergency situations: Melt ice from door locks to prevent being stranded.
• Winter maintenance kits: Pair with a screen wash for comprehensive glass care.
• Professional detailing: Integrate into routine winter service packages.

Safety & Handling

While the formula is safe for most automotive surfaces, it is advisable to wear gloves when handling large quantities or during prolonged use. Keep away from direct contact with eyes; in case of splash, rinse thoroughly with water.

Compatibility

• Suitable for all types of glass: windshields, side windows, rear windows, and mirrors.
• Compatible with plastic trim and metal components commonly found on vehicles.
• Does not damage paint or clear coats when used as directed.

Environmental Considerations

The de‑icer’s water‑free formula reduces runoff, making it a more environmentally responsible choice compared to traditional aqueous solutions. It is also biodegradable, ensuring minimal impact on ecosystems after use.

Storage Guidelines

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Avoid freezing temperatures that could alter the viscosity of the solution.
• Keep the cap tightly closed when not in use to prevent evaporation.
