    I would strongly advise against that.

    If you live in the upper Midwest, you can go weeks or months without it getting above freezing, which means you have a salt encrusted car.

    I live in Alberta, Canada. I do not wash my vehicle when it is extreme temps (-30 and below). But when I do wash it during the cold months I will bring with me a microfiber cloth so I can dry the door jambs.

    I don’t usually worry too much bout this
    Grew up on the east coast but I would figure ways to take care of it when the weather was above freezing
    Delaware just literally has no clue of what’s going on n laid out the Sahara for the snow we got this week

    bit the bullet n self served the bottom
    Got home n quickly rinsed with cleaner? water n ONR

    Looks brand new n all but I just haven’t gotten round to having the undercarriage serviced n then protected before winter

    goals this spring

    side note:
    I can wash my truck with that stuff in under 10 minutes with 2-3 microfibers…precious
