  • Winter Proofing my car

    I was planning on not driving my car over the winter but damn, its so hard to live without a car.

    So, I decided to take the Camaro out of the storage and start driving it again. But I wanna make sure I get the car ready for winter so the car won't get damaged by the cold. BTW, my car is turboed. Will there be any problem with driving a turbocharged car in the winter?

      Put a good heavy coat of wax on it to protect the finish. I use Klasse topped with Collinite, but I am sure Zaino would be good too, as well as many paste carnaubas like Mothers or Megs #26 paste...

        this is my second (and last) winter w/ my car... i'd think maybe about a rustproofer on the underside.

          See, I wanted to let it sit in the storage like I did last year but this year, I am living off campus. Which means, I need to go buy grocery and stuff. I'm sick of walking to the bus stop in the cold to get a gallon of milk. And I don't have money to buy a winter beater either since I'm a poor college student. :(

            Keep the undercarriage washed. Keep the salt off the best you can.
