Why do you need to clean your windshield every 20 minutes??
I wash my car every week, the windshield is clean most of the time. Or clean the windshield while pumping gas in the gas station.
What do you feel when you just wash and wax the car, and the car in front of you start splash dirty water onto your car??

I feel like it's time to wash the car again!
Seriously, we're driving on pavement, not carpeting. Cars will get dirty; getting stressed out about it doesn't seem like a good idea.

I would just spray away, Even though someone wash my car for me everyday, I still need to clean the windshield once in a while. You will be surprise to see the amount of dust build up and hell no I don't care about the car behind me just got wax, is part of driving if you can't stand it than is going be tough on you getting paranoid over little things like these.

I have had bad chemicals in cheap washer fluid damage the paint finish on my cars in the past. For this BMW fluid, smell is alcohol, which is safe for the paint and rubber parts. It also cuts through ice and snow (for those people who would make ice on their cold windshield if they use plain water as washer fluid).
