Product Information

Full details

This Bluecol Screenwash Concentrate is for drivers needing optimal windshield clarity in all weather conditions. Its key benefit is powerful cleaning action combined with excellent winter freeze protection down to -36°C. A caveat is that it requires dilution for normal use, and incorrect ratios can lead to reduced effectiveness or freezing issues. This product is a concentrated formula designed to quickly remove dirt, grime, and insect deposits without smearing, ensuring safer visibility. It also contains BITREX to deter accidental ingestion and helps prevent bacterial growth in the washer system.

FAQs

What is the recommended dilution for normal summer use?

For normal summer conditions, use a dilution of 10% Screenwash to 90% water (e.g., 1 part screenwash to 9 parts water).

How do I use it in winter conditions?

In winter, increase the concentration. For milder winter conditions, use 50% screenwash to 50% water. For severe winter conditions, use 75% screenwash to 25% water, or use it neat (100% concentration) for protection down to -36°C.

Does this product prevent bacterial growth?

Yes, Bluecol Screenwash Concentrate contains agents that help prevent bacterial growth within the washer system.

Is it safe for accidental swallowing?

The product contains BITREX, a bittering agent designed to deter accidental swallowing. However, it is a chemical and should always be handled with care and kept out of reach of children.

Can I leave the concentrate undiluted in the washer bottle during winter?

Yes, if you require protection down to -36°C, you can use the concentrate neat (undiluted) in your washer bottle.

Will this product leave streaks on my windshield?

The formula is designed to clean without smearing, providing clear visibility. Ensure you use the correct dilution and that your wiper blades are in good condition for optimal results.

What is the capacity of this bottle?

This bottle contains 2 liters of Bluecol Screenwash Concentrate.

Troubleshooting

Washer fluid freezes in the reservoir.

Ensure you have used a sufficient concentration of screenwash for the ambient temperature. For freezing conditions, use a higher mix ratio (50% to 75% or neat for -36°C protection).

Streaks on the windshield after washing.

Adjust the dilution ratio. For normal conditions, a 10% mix is recommended. Ensure you are using clean water for dilution and that the wiper blades are in good condition.

Screenwash is not spraying from the jets.

Check if the washer bottle is empty or if the jets are blocked. If the fluid is frozen, you may need to warm the vehicle or use a de-icer spray. Ensure the correct concentration is used for winter.

Unpleasant odor from the washer system.

The product contains agents to prevent bacterial growth. If an odor persists, flush the system with clean water and refill with the correctly diluted screenwash. Ensure the washer bottle cap is sealed properly.
