Collection: De-icers

Car window and lock de-icers

In winter, frost and ice on windows make preparing a car for driving difficult, while a frozen lock can prevent doors from opening. This category includes windscreen de-icer sprays and small car lock de-icers. These products serve different purposes, so check their instructions before buying.

How to use a windscreen de-icer

Remove loose snow, spray the frosted surface according to the label and allow the product to work. Carefully remove loosened ice and fluid residue. Do not scrape glass with hard tools that might scratch it, and never pour hot water onto frozen glass.

When is a lock de-icer useful?

Lock de-icers are formulated for use in lock cylinders. Keep one outside the locked vehicle so it is accessible when a door will not open. Never force a key into a frozen mechanism, as this may damage it.

How to reduce icing problems

Maintain door seals and ventilation, and use suitable winter windscreen washer fluid. A de-icer is a temporary aid; afterwards, check whether the lock needs drying or maintenance. Products from K2 and Moje Auto are available in different package sizes.
