How Road Salt Damages Your Vehicle
Paint & Clear Coat
Salt spray etches into paint surfaces, causing oxidation and permanent damage to your vehicle's finish.
Undercarriage & Frame
Salt accumulates underneath, accelerating rust on brake lines, exhaust systems, and structural components.
Wheels & Brakes
Corrosive salt attacks alloy wheels and brake rotors, causing pitting and reducing braking performance.
Long-Term Value
Untreated salt damage significantly lowers resale value and leads to expensive repairs down the road.
How We Protect Your Vehicle
Professional salt removal process designed for Route 20A commuters and village residents
Quick 20-25 Min Drive
From the village, take Route 20A west to Orchard Park, then Route 219 north to the 190. Our Lackawanna shop at 4 1/2 S Fisher Rd is an easy 20-25 minute drive. Many local residents make this their regular winter routine to protect classic cars and daily drivers.
Thorough Hand Wash
Comprehensive foam cannon wash using pH-neutral soap that safely removes salt from all painted surfaces, door jambs, and trim. The two-bucket method prevents scratching while breaking down salt bonds. We hand wash every inch - whether you've been parking on Main Street or driving rural roads to Knox Farm.
Undercarriage Cleaning
Our shop allows us to get underneath your vehicle for complete undercarriage cleaning - critical for Route 20A commuters. We thoroughly clean the frame, suspension, brake components, and exhaust system to remove accumulated salt and prevent hidden rust damage.
Wheel Wells & Brakes
Wheel wells trap massive amounts of salt and ice. We thoroughly clean wheel wells, behind wheels, and around brake components to remove all salt residue. Clean wheels and tires are dressed to protect against future salt accumulation, preventing rust in high-exposure areas.
Ceramic Wax Protection
After removing all salt, we apply ceramic wax protection that creates a hydrophobic barrier on your paint. This protection lasts 4-5 months through winter - essential for maintaining vehicle values and protecting classic car investments. Perfect for collectors who appreciate the Roycroft tradition of craftsmanship.

East Aurora Salt Removal FAQs
Common questions from drivers about winter car care
How does Main Street village affect salt damage in East Aurora?
East Aurora's historic Main Street village center receives constant salt treatment throughout winter to ensure pedestrian safety for shoppers and tourists visiting the Roycroft district. The compact village streets mean more concentrated salt applications, and vehicles parked on Main Street or near the village are exposed to continuous salt spray from passing traffic. The combination of heavy foot traffic and frequent plowing creates significant salt accumulation on vehicles.
Is Route 20A really that bad for salt buildup?
Route 20A is one of the most heavily salted roads in Erie County. As a major east-west state highway connecting Aurora, East Aurora, and points west, it receives priority treatment from state DOT crews. Daily commuters driving Route 20A accumulate serious salt buildup underneath their vehicles. Combined with the rural sections that get pre-treated before storms, your undercarriage takes a beating every single winter day on this route.
How far is your shop from East Aurora?
Our shop at 4 1/2 S Fisher Rd in Lackawanna is approximately 20-25 minutes from East Aurora village. Take Route 20A west toward Orchard Park, then Route 219 north to the 190. It's an easy drive and well worth the trip for thorough undercarriage cleaning that protects your vehicle investment. Many East Aurora residents make this a regular winter routine to preserve their classic cars and daily drivers.
I have a classic car - is salt removal extra important?
Absolutely critical! East Aurora has a strong classic car culture, and many collectors live in the area. Road salt is the number one enemy of classic and collector vehicles. Even if you only drive occasionally in winter, salt spray from other vehicles and moisture in the air can cause damage. We recommend bi-weekly professional cleaning throughout winter, plus pre-season ceramic coating for maximum protection. Many East Aurora classic car owners trust us to protect their investments.
What's the best winter routine for East Aurora drivers?
For East Aurora residents commuting on Route 20A or parking in the village, we recommend our Deluxe Exterior package ($249.99) every 2-3 weeks during peak winter. This includes thorough undercarriage cleaning at our shop. Between major details, our $80 Hand Wash removes surface salt. If you own a classic car or high-value vehicle, consider ceramic coating before winter starts - it makes salt removal easier and provides long-term protection.
Does East Aurora's rural location mean less road salt?
East Aurora's village streets receive moderate salt application, but the rural routes connecting to Buffalo see variable treatment. Route 20A and Main Street are well-maintained, while country roads may use more sand than salt. However, East Aurora's hilly terrain means salt is applied heavily on grades. Overall, salt exposure is moderate compared to urban areas but still significant enough to warrant regular service.
How do village streets compare to Route 20A for salt?
East Aurora's charming village streets receive consistent but lighter salt application than Route 20A. The main highway sees heavy state-level salting due to traffic volume and its role as a major east-west corridor. If you primarily drive within the village, monthly salt removal may suffice. Route 20A commuters should consider service every 2-3 weeks.
Is salt damage common from Main Street parking?
Main Street East Aurora's retail district sees regular salt application for pedestrian safety during winter. Diagonal parking spots on Main Street accumulate salt from both road treatment and foot traffic. Vehicles parked on Main Street for work or shopping regularly should get salt removal monthly to protect paint and undercarriage from concentrated salt exposure.
Do you offer mobile service to East Aurora in winter?
Mobile service to East Aurora is available spring through fall only due to distance and winter conditions. During winter months, East Aurora residents can visit our Lackawanna shop - about 25-30 minutes via Route 20A to I-90. Many EA customers make the trip monthly as part of their winter vehicle maintenance routine. It's worth the drive for thorough, professional salt removal.
How often should East Aurora classic car owners get salt removal?
East Aurora has many classic car enthusiasts, and vintage vehicles need extra salt protection. If you must drive a classic in winter, get salt removal after every snow event - don't let salt sit. Better yet, use a winter beater and keep the classic stored. For classic cars driven occasionally in winter, we recommend immediate salt removal within 24-48 hours of any salt exposure.
