What's up everybody, welcome back to my laboratory,
where safety is number one priority.
As I promised a couple weeks ago, when I put to the test
windshield de-icers, three of them.
Some of them "As Seen on TV"
that once it's going to get even more snow and more ice,
I will put them to the test again.
Well, it actually happened. We had
foot and a half of snow easily.
For three days and nights, 21°F, really cold.
Yesterday everything melted.
Now everywhere is black ice on the road.
And this thing right here is solid ice. It's not even snow
look at it. At least on top of it, it's ice
and under there, there is snow. Crazy.
So, I want to put to the test these de-icers,
when it's that conditions, like that full
of ice. The car.
So let's see which one is going to work the best.
At first I wasn't sure if there was ice on the windshield,
but seeing these icicles,
100% - check this out.
There's so much ice. Wow.
Crazy! I can't even get that off.
Even if I tried to use like the best brush.
Look at that.
(Laughs)
Good luck! Maybe I'll have to
spray that off.
That's going to take forever.
And it's going to be really, really cold. Feels heavy,
let's see how much it sprays.
Right now, you can't really tell anything.
Is it melting? I have no idea.
Yeah, it's melting pretty easily actually.
No way.
There's just too much snow. So I'll have to....
…..just...…..
break off the ice like that. Which is not that
honestly hard
with that gadget.
And first, I'll remove the snow.
Ok guys, this is what I wanted to put to the test.
Thick layer of ice. Very, very thick.
First one is going to be new one, this one.
Let's see how it does.
Not bad! Check this out.
Sprayed a little bit, it's melting it.
It'll be definitely much easier to remove it,
once it's...……..
melted all up.
I probably still have to use the scraper though.
I do love the- the way it sprays from far away.
So far, thumbs up from me because look at that.
Uh, it's melting. You just wait a little longer,
and it should melt all the way. Hopefully,
it does not re-freeze because it's 21°F.
So I would use a brush,
and help it out,
before it re-freezes.
But, check this out. No way! It helps a lot
but there's still lots of ice
and it's already frozen. Crazy!
But again, if the car was on, it probably would
have helped a lot. So far, thumbs up from me.
This is a crazy conditions. Also, it has
a scraper. So, you spray,
and then you scrape.
Sounds so bad.
But, it does work. I can actually see
the windshield.
You know what? So far, I like that gadget.
It definitely melts the ice. If car was on and pre-heated, it would have just continue melting it.
Definitely helps, you can see the ice was melting.
Look at that, this is just ice. I could be scraping it
all day. No way.
No way. Even with this thing.
Helps,
but,
let' s see if the de-icer going to help even better so you don't have to scrape your windshield.
Next, I'm going to go "Ice-Off". Let's see how well it does.
I love how powerful that is.
I am going to get this whole section right here.
From top to bottom.
Already used it before, a lot, so
it's almost out.
So, this whole can will probably only last
one use, for the whole car icy like that.
And again, look at that.
It's coming off really well.
It's definitely de-icing it. This is what it
used to be, no way.
This right here coming off so much better.
Ok, next one is "De-Icer"
Look, it's just like a picture. That car
looks like so much snow. And it's full of ice.
Let's see how this one does. It's so much bigger
than "Ice Off". And it doesn't have as much power.
Interesting.
Let me take this thing off. Maybe it will be better.
Oh yeah. Without the thing is a little bit better.
It probably don't last as long,
but let's see how well it's going to ice off this stuff.
Or, de-ice.
It melts good.
All of them. But then it's just like so cold
it just re-freezes.
And this is kind of snowy ice. It's probably...
This is "As Seen on TV" with that,
"That's a lot of damage!" guy. And this one
I think, pretty much the worst one.
You barely even see anything spraying.
It is, but look at that. (Laughs)
I'm going to be sitting here spray painting it,
looks like I'm spray painting it. It doesn't have any
like "real power of damage" like he says that.
"That's a little bit of damage!" You know, that's what he say
with this 'blast off' thing.
'Cause the other ones did penetrate
a lot of ice. This one is the worst.
Look. Most of it, it don't even
penetrate through this ice and snow.
It does melt it, but it just,
the least powerful one, that's for sure. And one more, "Windshield Spray De-Icer"
This one is so powerful, I like that one a lot.
Honestly, so far, I like this one the most.
(Laughs)
Gus, are you singing?
Yeah, look at that. "That's a lot of damage"
But again, you have to help it, scraping it, and,
the car has to be on.
But if it just ice like that, let's see.
They are so much better on just the ice.
Not that snowy ice.
Right here mostly just black ice now. It re-froze
almost instantly.
It's still ice. Wow. That one has failed.
"windshield spray de-icer"
Look at that, it's just spraying it off so well.
I would say, "Windshield Spray De-icer"
is my favorite.
But they pretty much similar, except the "blast off"
is the worst one. Most of them have this
good power. So, you spray it,
the car should be on, on top of it,
and, as you can see, it will re-freeze whenever it's cold.
But it is de-icing it really well.
So I'd get one of these,
and just remove the ice,
before it re-freezes.
Plus if the car is on, on top of it,
and defrosting it on the back end,
that would definitely help a lot. Ok this right here
is all ice. Let's see how well it's going
to de-ice it.
(Laughs) I see the steam coming off of it.
That's interesting, it's definitely de-icing it
but if you have such a thick layer on the car of ice,
nothing will help you.
I can hear it melt.
But is it that efficient?
Not so much.
You know it helps, but I still can feel a little bit of ice over there
Again,
it is a great way to help out defrost it
but you still have to scrape it.
So check this out, this is like snowy kind of ice,
now it's melting a little bit better.
Let's try this again.
It works on the snowy kind of ice way better.
Not that thick black ice type of deal.
You spray it on, but you got to
remove it instantly, because if it's really freezing out here,
it will just re freeze into the ice.
So in my opini-, so in my opinion, they are really good
defrosters, and the snowy kind of ice
it helps a lot. But also, if you
don't heat up your car right away, it's going to re- frost,
and re-ice, pretty
much instantly. So make sure you,
still turn on your car and like,
warm it up and defrost it from the inside.
I know you guys want to see what my dogs' doing.
Hugo and Gus playing. As soon as they come up
they stop. They like, oh-oh, are you going to give me treats? No?
He still isn't done yet.
Gus haven't done yet.
So yeah, subscribe to my channel.
Pet channel, if you guys want to see more of that craziness.
Gus was so excited the first time
seeing snow, I filmed that. I'm about to post
it on my pet channel. So links in description.
Ah, get down.
Well, guys that's pretty much it. Let me know in comments below
what do you think? Don't forget to thumbs up this video.
Subscribe, and I'll see you next time.
