is there a recipe for washer fluid that can be used instead of paying
2 dollars a gallon for the store stuff. I know some can damage hoses and pumps.- posted

Just how much of the stuff do you go through in a winter?
None of it damages hoses and pumps.

If and when the temperature is above 32 deg F, I dilute it with water 1:1 ratio (50% water and 50% washer fluid) to stretch it.

Then you know something that no one else knows or is willing to sound foolish saying out loud. {;^)
If you're paying only $2.00 a gallon for the windshield washer fluid, you're not buying a very high quality product.

It's all the same stuff.
All I've ever done for 25 years has been to buy the cheapest I can find regardless of brand. It goes on sale regularly at numerous places, sometimes for as low as 99¢.
No matter where I buy it, it all works exactly the same. (Provided you're buying the same temperature rating, that is...)

Hi, Not really. Cheap one will slush when it's very cold.

You're referring to summer "bug wash". Not the same stuff.

But if your neighbor is using the cool looking orange stuff, you
*have* to use it too. ;)- Vote on answer

I like the green stuff myself. The blue stuff is boring.
How come nobody color-coordinates washer fluid? Think of the increased sales to women. Pink, anyone?

Isn't the freezable 'bug wash' pink?
