Does Road Salt Do Damage To Your Vehicle ??

YES......   parts of the vehicle  anyway.



Road Salt can get into the cracks and crevices and  start the oxidation and rusting process, which is  a chemical reaction. Salt can have  a damaging effect on  steel surfaces and  can speed up the corroding process.

The good news is .... if the car is properly polished, the  effect is not too bad.

The best way to avoid the ravages of  Road Salt is to wash it frequently during the “Salt Season” which is  normally  November to April. Waxing  your vehicle  before the Salt Season  is a great preventative step!
