Coping with road salt spray? Help!

Gents, help me with a problem. Like almost everyone else I like to ride in the snow! Trouble is, getting to the riding area and then getting home in the snow. It’s several miles to where I ride. Tailoring the Rhino there and back it gets covered with highway salts and crud. After a long day of riding, and arriving home cold and tired, do ya’ll have the self discipline to get out the pressure washer and wash down your buggy and all you stuff? I failed to do just that once with my Honda Foreman and the next morning it was covered with rust where that wet salt had lain on there all night. How do you tough guys prevent this from happening to your stuff?

I don't ride or haul my machines on salted roads, however I have several friends that work for the state dept doing snow removal, I think they use something that neutralize it. I'll check to see what they use. I know they were spraying equipment down with diesel fuel but it is hard on rubber and some plastics.

Its called eastwoods road salt neutralized, $29.99 a gallon, they say use 6oz per gallon. Eastwood.com

WD 40 or penetraing oil on all metal surface helps also

My Pam hasn't worked since 2000, except at our property. The wife that is.

I just live in the south.. No salt to worry about, Heck no snow either lol..
