What is the best way to do this?

I have tried squirting de-icer on them but its not very good.

I have none diluted concentrate screen wash in and they still freeze.

Any tips?

Totally agree, let the heat from the engine do the work.

Warm water and then de-icer works for me.

Use better screenwash. Most of the cheaper ones even undiluted are only good to just below freezing.

I get mine from motor factors, its good to -20 undiluted. Currently got 50/50 mix , it was -6 this morning washer jets working fine.

Lidl. £6.99. Has anti freeze in it. I used it to de-ice my screen the other day. smile
