Helpful Winter Tips
- Keeping your vehicle as clean as possible during the winter will go a long way to cut down the damage done by salt and sand.
- Take your vehicle to the car wash as often as possible. If you can get to your undercarriage as well that would be a plus.
- Make sure to protect your car with your favorite wax or sealant.
Make sure the car is completely dry
- Carefully dry the edges of the doors inside and out, including the undersides of door handles, all hinges, plus the hood and trunk edges. This helps keep them from freezing shut.
- Use a good quality spray protectant on all exterior rubber or vinyl surfaces. It may be best to spray they applicator you are using instead of spraying the product directly onto the surface. This will avoid any overspray onto the paint.

Looks good
what do you recommend for removing hard core salt stains from the carpets and interiors?
Ive tried "salt removing" products and they didn't really do much, I had better luck with a white vinegar+ hot water solution, only problem is it leaves a strong odour of vinegar in the car.

The hot water works do you have steam available? You can use some warm water a good brush and 1Z einszett Plastic Deep Cleaner that is what we used on the Cayenne mats above.
Uber Leather and Carpet Brush
1Z einszett Plastic Deep Cleaner
Interior Microfiber Towel
After you brush them out use a clean microfiber towel to remove the balance then vac.

Thanks Phil for the help, I also have a question what if your not able to wax but you have opti-coat on the paint and glass coat should I be ok for winter. We have been getting hit with crazy snow and now that it's freeing up I'm able to wash and put a protective wax on it.
