Tips to Protect Your Car from Salt and Rust Damage
Washing your car in winter is essential for protecting it from damage caused by road salt, slush, and grime. Experts recommend washing your car every two weeks during the winter months or more frequently if you experience heavy snow or icy conditions.
Salt accumulation can lead to rust, especially on the undercarriage, so paying attention to these areas is critical. Opting for touchless car washes or those with undercarriage cleaning options can help maintain your vehicle without causing scratches.
