(Posted this in the cosmetic section too)

Look all, I have written about this stuff a bit before. Hat tip to CamaroDreams07.

I was invited by a friend at work to go to the Bruins-Rangers game tonight (Massachusetts) so no way was I going to drive into Boston in snow and park Christine in a garage, so he drove his Honda Hybrid.

Bruins won 3-0, way more fun to be at the game, never went to a Hockey game. Loved it.

Anyways, got back to my work parking lot and it had been icing/snowing in the Bedford area. Started the car for a bit and then used the best ice scraper ever (will have to check which it is) and got home fine. Blizzaks on a Camaro, just don't get stupid and it's totally fine. Not an issue on snowy/icy roads (so far).

Parked in my home garage and went in to have drink or 2 (or more/40 minutes). Stepped out to see the car and the entire car was beaded up with ice/water. I put on a nitrile glove and brushed my hand along the fender....

and the waterfall began!

As soon as a gap opened all the water started pouring off the car, even with ice drops on it. It just flowed right off. I did a few passes making a channel on the car in places and all the ice and water just flowed right off.

Probably be dry in a few hours. I put this on in mid October:

I bought it from Amazon. Be sure to read the application thread, it's slightly tricky to apply correctly.
