If you really want to make your own WW fluid at home…it’s a shot of Everclear with a water back. Please use your windshield wipers responsibly. Seriously though, ethanol = Everclear

Fantastic news!! But..what's your ratio?I bought a bunch of s#$t and mixed a bunch of stuff. A friend smelled the fluid and said "it's definitely got grain ethanol in it." So here's the formula:
Mixed hand sanitizer grade ethanol with water or blue juice of your choosing, add a splash of isopropyl alcoho to add a little "kick" (not too much)l...do it all proportions to match the OEM smell or whatever your preference may be.
Things I learned. Don't waste $$ on 5620...it's not the stuff. Sonax is optional, it adds a little nice smell but it's almost imperceptible. Methanol is not the answer and it's not great to be breathing (even though many washer fluids contain it).
In the end, it's just simple water + ethanol. That's it, my kid and wife say the smell is exactly the same. . It's the stupidest damm thing...but I DO love that smell.
