FORT WAYNE, Ind. — Salt left on cars can cause significant damage and corrosion, resulting in the winter season being the busiest time of year for many carwashes, particularly for those located in Northern regions.
Carwash owners and operators must encourage customers to wash their cars frequently, especially the undercarriage, to help keep their vehicles stay in good condition.
Moreover, carwashes can expand their offerings to include car rustproofing services, which can help establish a stronger customer base while adding an additional source of revenue. You can learn more about rustproofing services here.
