A TIKTOKER has revealed how an important eight to ten minute window is the key to quickly defrosting your car.
The woman – called @almabenitezx on the platform – shared a video demonstrating her helpful hack – and it has since racked up nearly 25,000 likes.
She starts by saying: “get ready to be in your car at least eight to ten minutes before you start driving.”
Next she turns the car heater on full, the fan on number three and presses the rear window defrost button.
Then, after waiting for roughly eight minutes, the frost is “like water” and she is able to “swipe it away.”
Viewers found the advice helpful and expressed their gratitude in the comments section.
“You teach me so much. Nobody teaches me stuff like this so thank you,” said one.
Another wrote: “tysm (thank you so much) for doing these videos! it’s definitely hard when there’s no one to teach u and lessons are so expensive, manifesting u blow up girl.”
This isn’t the only car cleaning hack shared recently.
Last week a driver shared a 5p “frozen windscreen hack” to defrost car’s instantly.
Cleaning whizz Steve Benson took to social media to share the genius tip to leave your windscreen looking spotless.
With snow warnings in place across the country, many drivers will have to spend some time cleaning their windscreens in the morning.
For this, motor owners need to know how to clean their windscreen properly or they could face a staggering fine.
All you need is a dash of methylated spirits – which will only cost you 5p if you buy a £5 bottle from your local supermarket.
The content creator, also known as @neonretrofurniture, posted a TikTok video explaining how to use it.
Steve said: “Do you want to know the best thing to clean your frozen windscreen with? Clear the ice off your car in seconds with this.”
