Removing winter salt build up.

After two harsh winters I'm worried about the effects of road salt on my cars bodywork.

Are there any products that you recommend that remove the road salt film from a car's bodywork, chassis & underbody and that prevent the acceleration of corrosion of bodywork, chassis sub-frames, suspension components etc?

Back in Australia a company called Staun used to sell a product called 'Salt Assault' which was popular with mining companies. You could wash your cars bodywork and underside with it, but it doesn't seem to be available in the UK.

Use a garage jetwash. Or a home Karcher jetwash: www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/parts-and-accessories/20.../
