Ingredients:
The addition to the water that makes it slip and not stick to the glass is a surfactant. A surfactant is a
compound that reduces the surface tension of a liquid, allowing it to spread more easily. In windshield
washer fluid, the surfactant helps to break the surface tension of the water, allowing it to spread evenly
over the windshield and clean it more effectively.
The dish soap used in homemade windshield washer fluid contains surfactants, which is why it is an
effective ingredient in the mixture. Other commercial windshield washer fluids may also contain
surfactants, as well as other ingredients like alcohol, glycol, and detergents that help to improve the
cleaning performance of the fluid.

stains and mineral deposits from your windshield.
