Cleaning and corrosion protection of the car in winter

Clean car - without the dirt and rust - look happy and warms the soul of this motorist. However, if the summer with this no problems, the winter has specific requirements for the content auto. These we consider.

Immediately the question bluntly, can we do to wash cars in the winter? After all, it is clear also that the water penetrates into the smallest cavity, and freezing, causing numerous problems. This locks, do not let the key, and opens the door and primerzshie brake pads, etc. Also, I've heard some dubious tales of cracked from the temperature difference after cleaning the glass.
Immediately the answer - you can not, and need! First of all, beautiful, and secondly, we remove salt and dirt, which, under certain conditions, in just a few months, "eats" and paint coating and the metal itself. Just when it is necessary to follow some simple rules.
Rule one - air temperature - not below minus 15 Celsius. However, the car washes are usually much warmer.
Second Rule - purge and the subsequent processing of locks, door seals and all sorts of rubber chemistry, displaces moisture.
Rule Three - stock on time. All procedures perform better slowly, after washing it is important to a couple of hours drive (for example, relatives to shop). Oven at the same time turned to maximum, and the remaining moisture evaporates quietly. Do not forget a few times vigorously "ottormozitsya - drier brakes. In this way, you have to be careful, the winter after all.
And yet, if you can handle the car wax - do not take the money, do it. Is inexpensive, but the effect is impressive.
Now to the issues of self-cleaning. Go tell that generally do not advocate such things as places that are adapted to this procedure, there is little, and pollute the nature and tease "cops" do not want to. Nevertheless, I will tell about the winter version of the "self cleaning". It is not difficult to guess water is difficult to do, but there is a way - for example, alcohol. If a couple buckets of this magic tool you will also find difficult to not be sad. There are the usual "stekloomyvayka. Same goes. We take no less than 5 liters and forth - all of my small plots. Quality cleaning, of course, does not work, but better so than running grubby. Do not forget to take two pairs of gloves - first put up for workers' hebeshki ", and on top of rubber. And yet, do not be lazy, wear a mask (such as medical), because the smell of this chemistry is clearly warns of the high toxicity of the substance, and inhale it once again just not worth it. After cleaning - locks pour «WD-40" and wipe all the gum silicone oil (in fact, fit all, displaces moisture. A couple of times, for want of anything better, handle lock with antifreeze. The cool thing!)
We now turn to the issue of protecting a car from corrosion. It is clear that prevention is here - the best protection. All sorts of processing Mastic anticorrosive better place before the complex of the season.
One of the "nuclear" mixes, literally killing your avtozhelezo, she became a chemistry that is sprinkled on the road. What do ice is much more terrible in its consequences. Meanwhile, peskosolyanaya mixture immediately begins to work, dramatically intensifying, getting into heat. Hence the conclusion - after the winter travel on arrival home obbeyte rapids, mud flaps, of snow, and only then put your car in the garage. Needless to say, once again, the systematic washing will remove traces of salt.
Since you do not have time or forget to cover the mastic car, there is another way to protect - clever. It is a method of electrochemical protection. Small priborchik, a bunch of wires, hours of work and all - the problem of corrosion you are interested in only one point of view - when the fall off already existing rust. What's interesting with all the ease and efficiency of the method, it somehow does not use very often. Even the price, which is several times less than the cost of coverage "anticorrosive, does not attract the ordinary driver. However, the judge shall not, subject to mass fraud, this choice may be perfectly logical.
And finally, I remember as a child saw simply chic method of anti-corrosion treatment. Imagine a garage (of course, to rush out there for us was a great pleasure). Brand new shining "penny" few men neatly flip up the bottom and ... fill up "svezhespertym" asphalt mixed with resin! Effect, as it turned out - for decades!
