Title: frozen out !
Post by: gaz b on December 18, 2009, 09:16:11 am

Just a quick one guys!   :wink:

The wife just tried to get into the golf to drive to work and the doors are frozen solid!

What (if any) is the best way to prevent this?

Gracias :happy2:

Try some sort of silicon spray on the door rubbers,some furniture polish or tyre dressing will do it.The handel's on mine were frozen the other day so now when i park at work i wrap an old t-shirt round the handel & so far it's worked.

oh...silicon and paint in the same sentence makes me cry!

probably ok for most, but for me silicon = massive bad news in terms of paintwork!
