I never worry about decaf, regular, or any type of coffee, I totally avoid drinking it.
As for windshiekd washer fluid, I buy whatever I find when I need it.

I thought this was funny - a post from Family Handyman. With all the complications we face in life, we have to pick the right color for our windshield washer fluid? I can imagine a TV comedy showing a person freaking out about which color fluid to buy. π
Different color windshield wiper fluids are usually dyed for marketing purposes, and, depending on the brand can indicate different things:
Blue: Standard year-round fluid, effective for dust and road dirt.
Green: Summer driving, effective bug remover.
Orange: All-season with deicer, effective against ice and road salt.
Yellow: Winter with deicer, effective melting ice off the windshield with freeze protection up to -34 degrees.
Purple: Concentrated wiper fluid mix for summer.

when buying windshield wiper fluid, always buy from the dealer no after market why? the aftermarket fluid will clog the motors internal passages?
And, for those that dream of βRainbows End,β there is the special Rainbow fluid for those that chose to βSwipe and Dreamβ their windscreens!

Wow.
I've been driving for over 50 years,
never bought wiper fluid from a dealer.
Never had a clogged motor.
What are the odds.....

Start a poll, out of curiosity? π
Buy washer fluid from vehicle dealer or from a windshield washer fluid dealer?
Who is a third party windshield washer seller? π€
A good range of confusion, ifs, ands and buts could come up in a poll like that, to consternate, aggravate, agitate, irritate and segregate the most unfortunate.
You and me.........that's 2 with no clogged washer fluid motor internal passages in that much driving. (Didn't go to a specific dealer, personally.)
Good enough start to a poll?

Most will interpret car dealer.
Notice I said
most.
Would be an interesting poll though.
Probably get recipes for homemade solutions, what brands are used, and chemical makeups are used, their favorite color, how often they have to fill the reservoir, ...

Isn't decaf coffee a lot like nonalcohol beer? What's the point of either?
I drink for the taste. While cafeine has no effect on me so I don't drink decaf but I do drink non acolholic beer.

I use(d) RainX wiper fluid for 20 years and would never use anything else. It's cheap at WallyWorld.
Not to mention that over time it imparts that super-slick, almost wax-like finish to the glass that causes the rain to bead up and be more easily removed by the wipers. RainX is great stuff, don't care what color it is.
So, to blend these topics, any hog for trying decaf coffee in their car's wiper washer jug? FYI, Union Place Coffee Roasters in Rochester, NY makes a very good, Swiss water decaf I've been drinking lately. It's called Decaf Dark Roast Expresso. Switched over to it because caffeine tends to give me migraine headaches. Switched my wife to the decaf with the morning coffee I make us every day, and, except for the first few days when she felt unusually tired throughout the day (coming down off the caffeine!), she never noticed the change.

Have you seen the videos of people who made flames shoot out of their windshield washers. Some have rigged the system to provide drinks - not appealing at all! I couldn't find any of the flaming washers, but I've seen several.

Yeah, the taste. FINALLY someone mentioned taste. That's exactly why I drink neither coffee nor beer - can't STAND the taste of either!
