Re: Windshield wiper fluid bad for paint?
If you plan to keep the car a while, you should definitely use synthetic
oil. I've been using Castrol Synthetic for the past 4 years (since I
purchased it) in my 94 Accord EXR 2.2 4cyl, and it just passed the
emissions test with flying colours. One note, I've been changing the oil
every 6000km, not the 10000km usually recommended with synthetics.

Check the ingredients. Alcohol isn't good for the paint. It doesn't
dissolve the paint but it soaks in and softens it, making it very easy
to damage. The heavier alcohols are worse because they stick around
longer.

Do you know whether or not Rain-X's De-Icer Windshield Washer Fluid will
soften paint--or damage it any way?
Thanks in advance!
