Screenwash

Give your wipers a helping hand this summer with a screenwash that really cuts through the oily smears and dead insects. Our pick of the washer additives also had to cut it in winter without freezing. We also calculated summer and winter costs to find our screenwash star.
 
Winner
Sonax Clear View 1:100
Contact: 01798 344888 www.sonax.com
Price: £4.99
German car care giant Sonax has an unusual take on screen wash with a highly concentrated liquid in a small 250ml pack. But it really works dealing easily with summer bugs and oily smears while proving it will not freeze the moment the temperature drops. A great performer.
 
Commended
Halfords Double Concentrate Screen Wash
Contact: 0845 762 6625 www.halfords.com
Price: £3.99
A more conventional approach from the high street chain with a litre pack and different concentrations for summer and winter. And Double Concentrate really stars when the temperature drops as it lasted more than thee hours in the freezer without icing up.
 
Autoglym Quick Clear Screen Wash
Contact: 01462 677766 www.autoglym.com
Price: £2.99
This additive really lives up to its name as it made short work of bugs and oil on our test screen. It also lasted well in the freezer only going solid after three hours. The price only buys you 500ml but the concentrations used and performance make this an easy choice for a commended award.
