Dont use the stuff with antifreeze in it as you dont really need it, plus it will strip any wax you have put on the car. |

i've had my bottle freeze last year... and in this weather you'll be waiting ages for it to sort itself out...
this works... boil a kettle... pour the hot water into the neck... hopefully you'll have some space left... keep at it... boring though it is... and you'll sort the problem...
cheers,
ian

Don't use radiator antifreeze in your wash bottle either, it'll damage your paint. Use the proper screenwash, you can get stuff that will stay liquid down to minus 15 I think
