Is Rust Melting Your Car

Is Your Car The Wicked Witch Of The West?

Remember that scene from the Wizard of Oz… You know the one where Dorothy throws water on the Wicked Witch of the West? The witch cries out…

I’m Melting… Oh, What A World…

This is exactly what could happen to your car when you park it in the rain. For the most part, rainwater isn’t bad for your car unless…

Like most cars on the road, yours has a scratch  

Even just a small scratch can cause serious damage in wet or humid weather as the bare metal is exposed to water and air it WILL begin to rust. Luckily, (unlike the wicked witch of the west) it can take quite a while for the rust to spread and infect an entire panel of your car, but the longer it goes unattended the worse (and more expensive) it gets. 

Consider the picture below – this is a car that has taken fairly major damage – you’ll notice the rust has really taken hold. If this driver leaves it much longer they’ll need to replace the entire door, and this can become costly. Also, take a look at the small bit of damage on the right side of the photo. These minor dents and scratches can prove just as fatal – and often go unnoticed!
