warwgn3 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 I think Ontario is the worst for salt... they use so much up here that the roads turn white during winter. I'm going to pass off washing my car until winter is over, just to see how much salt I can collect... I wonder how gross a black and white 2 tone Lumina would look. After that I'll scrape some salt off the car, and sprinkle it on my McDicks fries..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomZoomFan Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 We had SNOW FLURRIES here the other day, and they poured copious amounts of salt. FOR FLURRIES. I mean, the salt is still collected on the roads. Good thing I wasn't driving my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psych0matt Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 i hate salt, but im uber excited for snow. I'll still probably do the drive through wash every week or two in the truck, even though its already rusted a bit. might as well try and slow it down a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genopsyde Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 at least you don't live where I do, no matter how bad it gets, they won't salt until there's at least 5 fatalities. My cutt doesn't get to come out and play in the winter tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam'ron Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 they use what seems to be a half n half mix of sand and salt here... for that simple reason whenever i was my car in the winter i also use the "wax" in the wand wash... i figure why not, i usually get the entire car clay barred in the spring anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GutlessSupreme Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 i've never ever seen so much salt on a car.. serious? that's like an everyday thing over here.. we haven't really gotten any snow yet but after the first significant fall almost every car around here looks 10x worse than that.

19Cutlass94 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Our first snow fall was a dusting. After the snow melted away, the roads were whiter with salt than they where with the snow! my car's clean....... AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnndddddd screw you!

Turbo231 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Here in Maine the state uses liquid salt. Since that time I've had to replace brake lines on two cars, including my Grand Prix. The state says they put corrosion inhibitors in the liquid...but that the hell stops salt from rusting stuff?!? Even a newspaper article interviewing local garages states they have had a dramatic increase in line repair (brake and fuel) since the state started using this stuff.

Stevo Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Well no one spreads more salt on the road than NovaScotia... so much in fact that if we try to sell our cars out west, regardless of condition buyers tend to lower their value, some dealers wont even take them.
