Motorists can \u201cquickly clear\u201d their car windscreens of mist and ice using supermarket carrier bags in a simple homemade solution this winter, according to experts.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Specialists at LeaseCar suggested bags picked up from stores could act as the perfect tool to clear any cover in seconds.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Drivers are bound to have some bags left in their cars or lying around the house from popular chains such as Tesco, Sainsbury\u2019s and Asda.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tim Alcock, spokesperson for LeaseCar.UK told Express.co.uk that drivers simply had to run the bag over the screen to see the benefits.<\/p>\n

He explained: \u201cEveryone has supermarket bags around the house, which come in handy when the weather cools off.”<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cMake sure it has no holes and fill it with lukewarm or cold water. Wipe the bag over iced windows and watch it quickly clear. Do not use boiling water or it will damage and crack the windscreen due to the sudden temperature change.\u201d<\/p>\n

Experts last Trade Price Cars previously tried the tip on their Mythbusters series on YouTube. Zak, spokesman for the group said: \u201cWe\u2019ve heard a lot of people say it’s a myth, it\u2019s nonsense it doesn’t work and we’ve had a lot of people say its brilliant, it works.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSo let’s just see if it works. Hopefully, we don’t crack a windscreen.\u201d Zak filled the bag with enough water to create a large enough contact patch across the glass and then held the top tightly to prevent spillages.<\/p>\n
