Abstract A disposable wind-shield snow protector adapted to be removably secured to the wind-shield of an automobile, bus, truck and the like including a flexible protection sheet and a backing sheet in overlying relationship to each other. The protection sheet includes a cord reinforcing secured to the rearward side thereof and is affixed to a handle located beyond the periphery of the protection sheet. The backing sheet is adapted to be peeled away from the protection sheet to expose an adhesive coating that adapts the device to be removably secured to any desired wind-shield. Removal by hand is easily facilitated by use of the handle provided and the device is then discarded.
