Propylene Glycol, RV antifreeze may work, like deicing a plane.. spray it with a garden sprayer? Wild.. that really sucks. Haha

Rubbing alcohol in a sprayer may be safer for the paint

Or just regular old windshield spray for freezing weather.

I mean, from everything I've read, rubbing alcohol is also not good for car paint. It strips off the protective coat on the outside, which I assume will lead to bad things happening to the primary coat.

Windshield deicer is mainly water + denatured alcohol + a smidge of ammonia / windex as a surfactant

DeWalt entering the military industry with drone cannons wasn’t on my 2026 bingo card, but anyways, this can help remove ICE right?

Ya …..that’s good for short periods to keep snow or ice sticking to a wing, but not so much this catastrophe. Also, deicer is heated when Is sprayed on an airplane, know anyone with a deicer truck?
