What if you don’t have an ice scraper or something similar to remove snow from your windshield? You may have heard about using vinegar to remove ice, but does vinegar melt ice? Yes and no. Vinegar is more effective when you apply it on your windshield the night before you expect any ice to form since the acetic acid in the vinegar lowers the freezing point of water. If you try to spray vinegar on your windshield after the ice has formed, then it won’t be as effective.
