Default White stuff

Winter time headache comes out again.
I believe guys live in colder area all suffer from white stuff on roads during the winter time.
Although we all know the white stuff would normally prevents roads from freezing, it always blots cars with white powder stuff dissolved in the water on roads, especially on clear days in the winter time....

Touch free washing machine would be the only hope we could count on???

Heh you should see my car...so nasty with all that **** on it..

I'd still be reluctant to take it to a carwash, I'm about to freeze my *** off and go outside today and do it myself[X(]

I just use the coin operated car washes... you just spray it off yourself. I do it once a week all winter long

It's awesome... because the car looks like *** 15 minutes after leaving the car wash. Meh.

The spray soap should be used... it'll actually get rid of the salt... the water might not do much to get rid of it... as cold water doesn't dissolve salt terribly well.
