Three reasons why you should detail your car in the winter.

Pennsylvania roads use salt during the winter, which is corrosive to your vehicle's paint, metal, and undercarriage. Regular washes, especially after snowstorms, help remove salt buildup, preventing rust and corrosion.

Not only is the exterior important, so is the interior. That salt and grime is also tracked into your car, damaging carpets, seats, other interior surfaces as well as your own clothing and gear.

Want to trade in that vehicle someday? Regular detailing helps maintain your car's resale value. See number one about rust and damage -- both can significantly diminish your vehicle's value.

Speaking of damage -- regular detailing helps improve visibility! Snow, salt and slush can cover your headlights and taillights, making it harder for you to see the road and others traveling as well. Stay safe on the road and make sure your vehicle stays in great shape.

Wesley Lloyd, Stuckey Automotive Regional Service Director, notes, "One of the key components that I think a lot of people forget is removing all of the harmful calcium chloride from the undercarriage, paint and interior of their vehicles. Getting the underneath cleaned regularly helps prevent the steering, suspension, driveline, exhaust, brake and all of the other components from premature failure. Not to mention that regularly cleaning this helps make our jobs easier! No one wants to pay anymore than they already have to, to get their vehicle repaired. Excess corrosion leads to longer repair times, costing the customer more money to perform necessary repairs."

"Cleaning the interior and exterior not only helps resale value, but it also prevents exterior corrosion and interior degradation from all of the chemicals our roads are treated with."
