Default Snow ice around car
Went on vacation and have snow that turned into ice around my is350.

Any advice on removal? Don't want to try to move the car will scratch the paint. Put some salt around the car. Otherwise just may have to wait.

Will be in the 30-40s this week.

Wait it out or carefully chip away at it.

I'm not very experienced with this as my cars are usually kept in the garage, but maybe pouring warm water over trouble areas might help?

Simply pour cold water on the car will work. Drive it indoor or take it to a car wash.
