Really? Hmm... As far as I know that's never been an issue with anyone in my family. You by the water often? I know they live a mile or so inland..but I don't know if that would make a difference or not.

My Great Grand Niece and her three daughters ( 1 yr old, 5 yr old, and 9 yr old) moved to my place in Bakersfield, CA from Italy for a three month visit. Her husband is in the Navy and is relocating from Italy to Panama City, Fl. He arrived last Friday, and I'm taking the girls down to LAX and shipping them off on Tuesday morning. What's the weather like around Panama City?

I live a couple of blocks from the beach but on the mainland it can still be an issue. I just keep a good coat of wax on my car and wash it frequently.

I seriously doubt in Sanford, he would have an issue with salt on his car... I live in Orlando and never have had an issue. The only issue i can see, is Love bug season.. but those are taken care of by constant washing an wet dryer sheets.


And right now in Orlando, it's may and already in the middle 90's.... Enjoy...

You should look into the clear bra. It will keep love bug guts from eating your paint

What the hell is love bug season, how are the roads I have a slammed colorado pickup that takes a pounding here in pa. If the roads are nice maybe the wife will let me lower the hhr some more.

Love bugs if left on your car for a period of time will eat through the paint of the car... I've detailed many cars that have been pitted by love bugs.

The bad thing about them, car exhaust attracts the bugs. There is a toll road , that always has bad love bugs over Lake Jesup. ( which is near Sanford.)
