Ordered one but until the temp gets above freezing won't be using it for undercarriage wash, only hand held air pressure pump (think garden sprayer) for washing off the white salt off the body and bumpers.
I started using Salt Away on Jetskis in 2012. The gelcoats were painted and I never had any negative results.
It was great for preventing salt corrosion or, at least, I didn’t get any on the new ski I treated from Day 1 which was used exclusively in salt water.

It’s made in America and the mnfr. claims it’s a completely benign formulation. They list an endless range of applications including automotive.

They further claim that leaving it on is best as it leaves a ‘film’ which inhibits future salt attack & rinsing off is only required in limited cases.

I honestly don’t believe it’ll hurt the vehicle.

With all that said, I’m tending to keep my G90 off the road when there’s bad weather and/or salt-spreaders are active.
