I'd have no problems if they used sand or something that didn't eat the cars from the ground up when it did snow. I drove my Foxes in the winter for years....but the salt killed two of them. I'm done killing Foxes in the winter. Quote Selected

Then fill a spray bottle with Future floor wax and give all those areas a double coat. Future is thin enough to seep into any cracks and crevices and seal them up. Pretty durable too. I've actually considered using it as a wax on the entire car. Quote Selected
