The Province owns and clears all roads and streets in Cornwall, while PEI notes that rapid freeze-thaw cycles and excess water can damage roadbeds.

Rust protection helps limit corrosion, but it cannot repair metal already weakened by rust.

Cornwall Climate Note: PEI warns that excess water and rapid freeze-thaw cycles damage roadbeds; wet grit thrown up in everyday driving can also settle against unprotected metal.
Expert Care Tip
Before treatment, clear packed dirt from wheel arches and the underside; trapped grime can hold moisture against metal and keep the product from reaching a clean surface.
