It’s paradise here in Nova Scotia, but in winter it becomes a salt stained paradise. On certain days, when the road salt and brine have melted the snow and ice, you literally need gallons of windshield washer fluid to constantly clean your windshield.
When driving to Halifax recently I had to make an emergency stop in Bedford to buy some windshield washer fluid as I had run out. It was very hard to see, driving into the sun. I took this photo to show the effects of the salt. After all, if you want to properly view the salt stained paradise you need a clean windshield.
What’s the average life of a car body in Nova Scotia?
Not sure. More and more plastic is being used, but the rust still takes its toll.
