R&C Components Ltd winter de-icer kit – 300ml trigger spray, ice scraper & 5L pod
When the mercury drops and your windscreen wakes up frosted, this little kit is exactly the sort of thing that saves mornings — and tempers. The P1 Autocare winter de-icer kit bundles three useful bits together: a 300ml trigger de-icer, a sturdy ice scraper and a single screenwash pod that makes up to 5 litres of washer fluid. Easy to use, easy to stow and genuinely handy when you’re in a rush.
What’s in the box
- 300ml trigger-action de-icer spray for quick, targeted application
- Sturdy plastic ice scraper for shifting stubborn frost and ice
- Screenwash pod/tablet that dissolves to make up to 5 litres of screenwash (raspberry fragrance)
Why this kit helps
It’s the small stuff that makes the difference: a quick spray to loosen the ice, a scraper to clear the worst of it, and a compact pod so you’re not lugging heavy bottles about. The screenwash you make from the pod helps keep the windscreen clear and is formulated to cope down to about -5°C — that’ll handle the vast majority of UK winter mornings. Handy when visibility really matters.
Typical uses and scenarios
- Commuters needing a swift defrost before heading to work
- Drivers who’d rather not carry bulky screenwash bottles in the car
- Anyone after a compact kit to keep in the boot or glovebox for unexpected frost
The spray comes in a 300ml trigger bottle for controlled application — point, spray, wait a few seconds, then scrape off the loosened ice. The scraper is beefy enough to tackle frozen edges and tough patches of frost. The screenwash pod simply dissolves in the washer reservoir: drop it in, top up with water (up to 5 litres) and your washer system is ready without spills or awkward pouring. Simple and no faff.
Practical notes and technical details
A few sensible tips: avoid prolonged contact between the de-icer and painted surfaces, and if the screen is heavily iced, use the spray first and then scrape gently rather than forcing the wipers. The kit is compact — package dimensions approximately 20.6 x 9.4 x 8.2 cm and the set weighs around 410 g — so it slips neatly into a glovebox or small compartment.
