Car Windscreen Cleaner
"Schiebenreinger Sommer
Scheibenreiniger-Konzentrat für den Wischwasserbehälter im Fahrzeug. Entfernt mühelos Schmutz und Insektenrückstände auf der Scheibe."
More from the technical products catalogue. This is a cleaner for car windscreens. I'm a bit stuck on "Wischwasserbehälter". I think this is the thingy that you put water to wash the windscreen with, but I don't know what this is called exactly. I have found "fountain solution" for "Wischwasser" on its own in two different dictionaries, but don't know whether this is the correct term in the present context. TIA for your help.
