Subject:      Ice scraper - - was Windshield de-icer in a can?

Greetings glaciated Vanagoneers,


This thread about windshield de-icer in a can got me thinking about my
own favorite ice scraper, which I bought in pre-www days at
Brookstone, IIRC


So a bit of Googling brought up this - - yep, they still make 'em:


http://www.riflestock.com/catalog_page.cfm?queries_index=index10&ProductCode=31&ProductSubCodeID=193&NewProduct=0


As you can see, scraping ice seems to be more of a secondary function
to the designers
- - still, I've used mine for years now and it still removes ice
better than my AAA card  :^)


One observation about de-icer-in-a-can, though The cans in our shop
say "de-ices frozen locks", so that might be a good thing, which makes
me wonder if it would un-stick a frozen side door - - anyone?
