Unless your jets are pointing at the windscreen
Ammended accordingly! Although screenwash does contain anti-freeze

Should be fine as long as your dont mind the bare metal look!
You need Windscreen Wash Fluid make sure its an all weather or winter one.
I'm currently using a cheap tesco one and it works wonderfully!
Car was 5mm in frost this morning yet one squirt of washer jets and it was cleared
