What Are Your Go-To Winter Cleaning Tools?

May be a silly question.

Would prefer not using what I have been using in the past ... plastic brush on one side with squeegee on the other, ice scrapper on the end of the handle.

Saw some foam snow scrappers which are sold as "paint safe". Not sure how well they would work with ice/frozen rain/snow removal.

Any experiences with these foam products, please?

Good wax and Soft99 Glaco DX for the glass - it makes removing snow and ice very easy.
If there is a thick layer of snow use very soft brush for the first 90% and microfiber for the rest.
Also silicon protection for the rubber around doors.
After coming home wash the car with warm water in the garage.

Unfortunately, no garage and no hot water hook up outdoors.

Will definitely look into the Glaco DX.
