How Road Salt and Climate Lead to Corroded Trim and Protection Tips
Road salt creates a conductive environment that accelerates electrochemical reactions on your trim, while freezing and thawing cycles drive microcracks open and let salt-laden moisture penetrate protective films. Humidity acts as an electrolyte, spreading corrosion into hidden crevices where debris shields metal. Cumulative moisture exposure weakens barriers, making early signs like sheen, micro-pitting, or delamination…
