Salt Buster is a professional salt-neutralizing underbody wash designed to remove and neutralize corrosive road salt that builds up on vehicles during winter driving. In Ontario, road salt, brine, and calcium chloride are heavily used to keep roads safe, but these chemicals can accelerate rust and corrosion on exposed metal components underneath your vehicle.
The Salt Buster process uses a specialized salt-dissolving and neutralizing solution that breaks down salt deposits and flushes them out of hard-to-reach areas such as frame rails, suspension components, and underbody seams, places that regular car washes often miss.
By removing harmful salt contamination, a Salt Buster treatment helps slow corrosion, protect critical components, and prepare your vehicle for rust protection treatments like Waxoyl or WoolWax.
After a long Ontario winter, your vehicle’s underbody is exposed to heavy salt buildup that can accelerate corrosion and damage critical components. At Twelve Gauge Coatings, we offer a professional Salt Neutralizing Wash & Spring Refresh Service designed to safely remove winter salt residue and restore protection to your vehicle.
Unlike basic car wash underbody rinses, our expert process allows our technicians to properly clean areas that automated washes simply cannot reach.
This service is the perfect way to protect your investment, reduce corrosion risk, and prepare your vehicle for the spring and summer driving season.
Our salt neutralizing process helps break down and remove salt residue that can remain trapped in seams, frames, and suspension components long after winter ends.

Ontario roads are heavily treated with salt and de-icing chemicals during winter months to keep roads safe. While effective for melting ice, these chemicals are extremely corrosive to metal components on your vehicle.
Salt residue can accumulate on:
If left untreated, this buildup can accelerate rust formation and lead to costly repairs over time.
Many automatic car washes offer a quick underbody rinse, but these systems cannot effectively clean critical areas of your vehicle’s undercarriage.
At Twelve Gauge Coatings, lifting the vehicle allows our technicians to properly access and rinse areas where salt commonly accumulates, while our Salt Buster™ treatment helps neutralize and break down salt contamination.
Regular underbody maintenance is one of the best ways to help extend the life of your vehicle, especially in Canada’s harsh winter climate.
This service is also ideal for vehicles protected with WoolWax or Waxoyl undercoating, helping maintain the condition of your vehicle’s underbody while safely removing winter contamination.
Protect your vehicle after winter and restore its finish with our Salt Removal & Protection Refresh Service.
