Splish Splash, Does Your Car Need a Bath?

People often make a big mistake during snowy winters—not washing their cars.
Salt and other nastiness eats away, marring your automobile's typically gleaming exterior.  But with unseasonably warm temperatures, most snow melted and salt evaporated (for now), it's the perfect time to take your whip for a whirl through a wash.
