Neither the company nor the screenwash are world class however they currently have 25 litre drums of their -15 screen wash concentrate for £20.
In case anyone is interested :y
If nothing else I can sell it to the local yoot as a new cider...
-
I assume that's -15 if used neat and not diluted :-\
doesn't say (that i can find)
last I paid was £12 for 4x4L box that's -10 neat
I do get Yhrough a fair bit of screen wash in the Omega .
not so much in the other cars ,which i put down to the family NOT cleaning the screens much ;D

Cant finf a 25 litre drum
but read this
TRIPLE QX Concentrated Screenwash 25Ltrs
Our Triple QX Concentrated All Season Screenwash cleans all types of dirt, grim, tar and sap from your windows, leaving a spotless, and streak clear finish. The concentrated formula allows you to get up to 25 litres from a single bottle
-
Sorry - misread the item.
It is 25l but they way the wording is I assumed it was 25l watered down.
Silly me :-[
-
If its the Triple QX shite, I bought a load of 5l ones 3 or 4 years back, and binned most of them.
Firstly, despite using it neat, it not only frozen, but damaged a headlight washer in the process (£50).
Secondly, it was quite smeary. Cut from grime? My arse, did it.
Neat water would be better.

As a yoot, I used to steal my Grandad's home made wine, but to be honest I'm sure it would have made excellent screen wash! ::) ;D

We used to make moonshine that blew our brains out.
Trips to the hospital were not unknown. :-\ :)
Ah, to be young again. :D

Back in the day (late 80's) while in sausage land, vodka from the Mally Shop was cheaper then the screen wash :D

-5 is fine for 99.9% of the time in the UK though :)

How could it leak if it was frozen? ;D
It did leak on to the BCM behind the passenger side kick panel, but I thought this thread was about screen wash, not Vauxhalls crap design :P

Freeze > expand > bugger the pipe> thaw out > leak everywhere >get repaired > repeat ;)

Nah. Apparently the pipe was prone to having an aneurism ;D
Plus, the temperature in the A pillar was probably about minus 40°C when on the move.
