Its -20*F outside, I have a minimum of 1/8 inch of ice build up on my window, and my wiper are stuck in ice. How long till ice is gone?

Your wipers have to be free , too use this so chop them out so they can move as you spray fluid ! Not long after you get hot fluid you will be melting ice ! I would help it by scraping a little though on that much ice !!

I always lift my wipers in cold weather off the windshield until I am ready to drive. I have not had your problem as yet. But my fluid lines are attached to the wiper arm, so the hot fluid is sprayed across the glass with the wiper movement. Works pretty good for me. My Temps only go down to 0 rarely. Usually around +10 at night.

Not sure, but I have kept it in my car all day in 90 degree weather w/windows up and it still had ice in it.

NO! EinZett 921008 is for non-freezing temperature applications only. This concentrate has NO anti-freeze properties. For applications where freezing temperatures (down to -22F) are expected, pump out your WSW tank and use EinZett #949515 Anti-Frost Plus Concentrate mixed with distilled water. Un-stick your wiper blades and soften WS ice with EinZett 940612 Eistau Spray, 0.5 Litre/$4.00 here. Both are worth every penny. Cheers!

About one inch (even a little less). Last night it went down to the 20s and there was no ice this morning. I have a shallow bird feeder, but I try to keep it as full as I can. Hope this helps.

It's funny, I actually tested it, it get to approx. -90f. But it's temporary, it thaws out quickly.

A long time. I can leave it in the hot car for an hour and I'll still have ice.

I had the same problem with one window. The window is supposed to stop when it senses something in the way of closing. I had someone pull out on the visor while I put the window up. I kept the window up for a couple of days, and allowed the rubber trim adjust to the difference in width. never had a problem again. I will add that it was summer when I did this, and I would assume that it will take longer if it is cold out.

Totally weird, sounds like you've done all the right things...tried a razor blade yet? Sounds like it is impregnated into the glass, the way auto windshields have an 8 inch runner of tint across the top. I still don't think the adhesive remover has any value...have you tried goof off or OOPs? Since I can't picture it, I guess if it didn't look to weird you could put the film right over the top & hope it doesn't look bizarre. Sorry that's all I got

We don't get snow that deep, so I do not know for sure. My guess is that it would still work. Snow that accumulates on the front of the blade sometimes starts to fly over the top, hitting the windshield, so we are still successfully moving snow.

Manual defrost. But it is fairly easy, turn it off, and the ice will come off in large pieces

I don't know. I have had our four plugged in since early 2013 and have not had to defrost it yet. There is no build up of ice, just a tiny bit of frost. I hope this helps. Overall it is well worth the money.

Unfortunately, I live in southwest Florida, and we don't see freezing weather, except once in maybe every 2 years, so I can't answer your question. The product is very good at what it does, I know that! We have pesty "love bugs" down here in the fall and spring and they can really make a mess of your vehicle. This product helps tremendously on the windshield. I like it because you can measure out the strength you need depending on your driving conditions. Look for a 800 number for you situation.

I don't bother with the rear window, just use the rear defroster. A little tip when snow or ice is due I take two plastic market bags and tie them on my side mirrors, untie them and off I go.

I know what you mean - I have the same problem on my deck with ice from the snow off the roof or when the eves drip - I use a little of that ice melt that looks like Styrofoam - maybe its not the best idea but it keeps it clean enough so that I can scrape to the wood on a warm day with a shovel ( temps closer to freezing +/-) its always a challenge to keep on top of that in the winter.

I stuck a piece of folded paper/cardboard between the shade and the window (fully closed) and left it there for about 24 hours. With the heat, the shade warped a little just so it cleared the window from hitting it. There was also another area that was hitting. I reinforced the double sided tape and fixed that

As I'm sure you know, the unit is very light weight. My suggestion is to be patient. I have used it once and learned this. It will clear it off. I have also learned that if the snow has already been walked on or driven over that ice will have built up on the concrete surface and it is very difficult to remove. I ended up using a square nose shovel.
