DON’T FORGET THE BOTTOM

Ernie’s Under Spray uses jets of warm water to blast away salt, sand and dirt from underneath your vehicle. If left alone, these sediments may corrode your exhaust system, suspension and floor panels. |

Excerpts from “Sodium Chloride: A Rant and Rave”
by Raymond Magliozzi
"We routinely replace dozens and dozens of radiators every year that have been rotted to pieces by salt. What happens? Well, unless you're out there washing your car every few days, the core of the radiator gets oxidized to bits. And, you know what else? If it's eating the radiator, it's eating everything else on your car as well.
"Most of us think that by washing off our car, we're getting the salt off. Sure, you're getting some of it off. But think of the underside of your car. Think of all those little nooks and crannies that are encrusted with salt. Eventually, all that salt is going to take its toll.
"Want to know what the end result it? It's SWISS CHEESE. A car that should last you 15 years winds up lasting you only eight or nine because it's all rusted through. Brace yourself, because one day you'll walk into the garage and your mechanic will call you over and say, 'Look at this! The frame is all rotted out. Your car doesn't even cast a shadow. It doesn't pay to fix this. You should junk the car.' And you know what? Everything else about the car might be perfectly good. In eight years, the car has literally disappeared in front of your eyes." |
