Ice-Free fluid was originally developed by a 3-engineer team at the Ames Research Center of NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) to prevent ice from adhering to airplane wings. Today, the fluid prevents ice, snow, and related precipitation from bonding to automobile windshields and other glass surfaces. Non-toxic, biodegradable formula consists of food-grade ingredients that wont release dangerous chemicals into the environment. Just spray the fluid onto window surface, prior to inclement weather, and receive anti-icing protection in weather down to -20 F. Once applied, 1 swipe of vehicles windshield wiper coats front window. Just use a squeegee to distribute spray on vehicles side windows. Application eliminates waiting for vehicle defrosters to thaw ice, plus ends discomfort of standing in cold weather to scrape ice from vehicle windows.
