We live in rural and gravel roads are always messy. Washed my car at a recylced water coin wash (hey 2 bucks goes a long way lol) just to get the salt off, because we are just off the transCanada hwy,,, salt wrecks cars! My cat is almost 8 and too lazy to lick his feet lol. We dont get warm until June, or end of May ....knock on wood :lol:
