Keep Your Car Clean in the Winter

SALTVermont = Snow and Icy Road Conditions = Salt = Rust on your Car.

The salt they put on our roads to keep us safe will corrode the body, brake and fuel lines, gas tank and other rust-sensitive components of your vehicle. You can loose years of driving because of RUST!

The experts say you need to get that salt off your vehicle within 10-days or when the temperature gets above 40-degrees.

However, don’t wash your car when it’s too cold. The water can freeze to the car. Wait until it warms up to at least 15 to 20 degrees. Open and close the doors, trunk, windows and other parts of the car with locks several times before parking it to prevent locks from freezing.

Rust on our cars is the curse of Vermont. Take the time to wash the body of your car, plus the entire undercarriage along with the tires and wheels. It will help you get more miles and years out of your vehicle!

Please drive safely!
