    Default Where are the 24 hour carwashes?

    I drove around for a while tonight looking for one. Mohawk on 14th street used to be 24 hours and now its not. 10th and 10th used to be 24 hours and now its not. The only one I know of is beside the Kilkenny, but its kind of out of the way for me. Does anyone know where the 24 hour carwashes are located?

    no, 14th street hasnt been open the past few times I've been there, and 10th and 10th is open until 11.
    Kilkenny is way too far from me. I live in the south!

    Pretty dumb question, but does washing your car in winter prevent rust at all?

    helps remove some of the salt from the underbody, partially preventing corrosion

    it definitely helps prevent rust. Especially in areas where molding meets paint.
    I don't think Alberta uses much salt (or any at all), so your safe when it comes to that. But crap and dirt building up on your paint is not a good thing.

    They dont salt the roads here. It helps prevent having your car get swirls and shit from prolonged amounts of time dirt sits on your paint and potentially scratchs the clear. hence the swirls.

    Funnyly enough if your vehical was coated in enough dirt it WOULD prevent rust... if it was thick enough to prevent oxidation haha. but for practicallity; no.
