Conclusion In summer, it makes up to 10 litres and give protection against freezing down to -2C. If you need to go any colder it’ll need to be used 1:1 or even neat.

How?

The results make it difficult to believe these tablets are much more than just dye, and to compound our frustration the liquid also seemed to stain our containers and give our hands a blue tinge. Verdict It certainly seems to make financial sense if you do. There are usually two types on offer; ready mix or the concentrate. We tried both, but the results were almost identical so we’ve concentrated on the concentrate.

There’s no cheaper way we could find of making screenwash than this, except maybe putting a squirt of Fairy Liquid in the reservoir. But as with most things, you get what you pay for and the tablets seemed to do little more than colour the water .
