What with all the bad weather lately, the car's been standing around doing nothing. But the other day when i went to meet Marky Mark about some lovely tinted rear lights! I was scraping the windows of ice and snow, but unfortunately i forgot i had a 'theMGZS.co.uk' sticker on the back window and .......... yes ........ i scrapped part of it off!!! I thought oh ******!!! LoL. I'll have to buy another one soon!! Anyone else done this with this bad weather?????

Must admit to use Warm/cold water to clear the worse and then a spray. I'm always worried I'll scratch the glass with a scraper!!

You'd have to have a diamond tipped scraper I think.

No, its only just off cold, and all the years I've done it, never had one go! (touch wood).

On that point anyone ever had a screen crack, after pouring on water to clear snow/ice???

I have just found a scraper from my Car Plan Xmas gift, so I may use that, just in case.
