I just bought a 10 year old Honda Element for a go to town and get around the parking lots, see the doctor in the always crowded lots and all. Super car, super purchase from the owning individual, craigs list posted....I love it already.
It started it's life in New York and spent 2 years there. After that it went south to nicer weather. Like a boat that has been used in salt water, there are obvious indications of salty road use. No big problems and most of it is surface discoloration...fingernail will dislodge the superficial but I want to ensure that it has stopped doing it's damage.
What do you folks that endure salt roads as winter common place do with your road vehicles to protect them from rust?
I thought about spraying most everything under the hood with WD-40 or something of the sort.
Comments appreciated.
