Winter Car Care Tips - Salt Removal Wash

Helpful Winter Tips

• Keeping your vehicle as clean as possible during the winter will go a long way to cut down the damage done by salt and sand.
• Take your vehicle to the car wash as often as possible. If you can get to your undercarriage as well that would be a plus.
• Make sure to protect your car with your favorite wax or sealant.

Make sure the car is completely dry

• Carefully dry the edges of the doors inside and out, including the undersides of door handles, all hinges, plus the hood and trunk edges. This helps keep them from freezing shut.
• Use a good quality spray protectant on all exterior rubber or vinyl surfaces. It may be best to spray they applicator you are using instead of spraying the product directly onto the surface. This will avoid any overspray onto the paint.
