What's in your . . .
Window washer tank?
I was wondering what folk here use.
I've used the Rain-X anti-bug juice in my other vehicles without any problems. Can't imagine that it would be a problem in the Vette.

Whatever comes in the little blue jugs of windshield washer fluid down at Wal-Mart. I've never had any problems with the fluid I use.

Nothing. I never filled it after painting the tank. I never use it so I will probably keep it empty.

Concentrate
I mix up a summer jug and a winter jug. Use distilled water. One quart last for several tank fills.
Tip: a recycled Arizona Tea 1 gal. jug is excellent for this purpose. I swear, the damned things are about 1/4" thick.

Washer fluid that contains Rain-ex. I like the way the rain just beads up and flows away without using the wipers. Never use Methanol because it eats up the rubber of your wiper blades, making you have to replace them prematurely.
