Best way to clean salt from undercarriage
Hey guys
How would you go about in getting road salt off your undercarriage and under the car? Should I jack it up, and get some type of soap attachment for my hose to spray under it or do you guys have a better or easier way?

I have a MUCH easier way!

but it involves living in a place where they sand the roads or spray chemicals vs. salting, sorry. I'd go for lots & lots of water through whatever attachments let you get it on the undercarriage but I may not know exactly what works best, seeing the previous way is the one I use. Go easy with a pressure washer - garden hose seems much safer on stuff that needs to not have water intrusion.

No scrubbing, no mess. Jack your car up on stands or a tire jack, bend down, and start spraying!

IN THE FAR REACHING NORTHERN "SALT ON ICE" belt, many commercial car washes have floor mounted wash jets that spray salt cleaner on the under parts.
