Touchless wash FTW. It even drys it for you people! CMON! Seriously though, if your not a RATARD and wash your car on a cloudy -10 degree day, you’ll be fine. It’s better than letting all the salt, dirt, etc stay stuck to your car while the sun bakes it into your paint. ---

I just wash it at the do it yourself car wash when its warm enough that it wont instantly freeze, its not going to snow for a few days and the roads arent wet. In between Ill wash the windows at the gas station. So far this winter Ive only actualled cleaned the windows (besides the gas station washing) and interior once. ---
