Funny question, but.....

Have you ever tried using car shampoo in your windscreen washer jets?

I was topping up my reservoir this afternoon with normal washer jet fluid and wondered whether car shampoo could be used mixed with water? Theoretically I reckon it could, it obviously has cleaning properties, doesn't damage paintwork and has properties which stop it freezing below 0.

So, has anyone tried this?

Why would you want to?

[KenJ]

Erm....not sure really, I was just curious!

There's nothing to stop you mixing it in, but I think you'd regret it when you flick your wiper stalk and end up with a load of foam all over the screen.

It smears and needs rising off.

[Eighteeteewhy]

It would probably gunk up the jets.

[MajorProblem]

Yeah, I just wash and go.

Don't do it same effect as mixing washing up liquid in there.
it may sound like a good idea but you will just end up
with a smeared film on your screen buggering up your vision nicely.
