A few weeks back I got a call from one of the shops in the area who does
business with our store... he said he had a stupid question to ask - but
asked if I had ever heard of pink washer fluid? I said yeah - we sell
it - Rain-X bug wash. He laughed and said he thought someone had put
extended life antifreeze in the washer fluid tank.
There is also green washer fluid too - Prestone Bugwash washer fluid.
Don't know if that is what the dealership put in - but it exists. There
is also yellow washer fluid. Prestone De-Icer is yellow.
I've also seen purple washer fluid, prolly a de-icer version. Doesn't
really matter what fluid you use - you could also use plain old water if
you wanted - but you shouldn't because it will freeze in the reservoir
and lines.
