Protect Your Vehicle from Winter’s Worst: Salt and Damage Prevention
Oct 18, 2024
Winter weather brings more than just cold temperatures and icy roads. It also brings the risk of damaging your vehicle. While road salt makes roads safer, it can also cause rust and long-term damage if left unchecked. Below are some simple, effective ways to help you keep your vehicle in top shape this winter.
Regular Washes
Road salt buildup causes corrosion, especially on the undercarriage. Scheduling washes when temperatures rise above freezing or visiting a heated car wash helps remove salt before it causes damage.
Wax for Protection
A good wax acts as armor for your car. Apply it before winter to create a barrier between your car’s paint and the salt. If you're facing tough winter conditions, consider applying a second coat mid-season.
Use Rubber Floor Mats
The outside of your vehicle isn't the only area that needs protection. Salt and slush can cause interior damage, too. Rubber floor mats are easy to clean and prevent stains and odors, keeping your car’s interior fresh all winter long.
