Windex in the washer
AArghh..I put Windex in the windshield washer. Had a brief brain cloud and grabbed the wrong container. Anyone think I'll damage anything by leaving it in?

You probably ought to drain it then refill it properly. I would.

I concur...the washer pump will cause the fluid to overshoot the windshield somewhat...so the paint won't like it much...

Old enough to know better.
I will do come housekeeping and no longer store the 1 gallon windex bottle right next to the 1 gallon windshield washer bottle. Hey, I got the color right!

If you have tinted windows, and if you have the climate control on, and you are using the fluid liberally, I would suppose there is a chance that you could suck in some of the ammonia vapors, and change your grey tint to purple
