Maintaining a fleet of vehicles that is constantly exposed to extremely harsh and corrosive environments is a large challenge and undertaking.
Trucks, trailers, skid loaders, sprayers etc. have all increased tremendously in price, and equipment and parts have decreased in availability.
Proper maintenance and increasing the service life of equipment is more important now than ever.
This one is non-negotiable for many organizations, however, know that if you are bringing your trucks into a heated building, it is the worst thing you can do for them when they are covered in salt. Heat increases the reactivity of the salt with metals. Although this is a great convenience for your drivers and makes practical sense, from a corrosion standpoint, it’s not ideal.
Most fleets have a designated wash area, but clearly getting 40 or more pieces of equipment through takes
time. We suggest at least treating the equipment with diluted Salts Gone using a pump sprayer. Rinsing
with Salts Gone accumulates less water than simply letting the snow melt, and it will instantly address the
issue at hand.
Salt draws electrons whenever it’s on a surface. The easiest way to prevent corrosion from salts is for them to not be on the surface. As many people have experienced, water alone is not enough to remove all of the salt, and traditional soaps are meant for dirt
and oils. Salts Gone™ has a very specific purpose to chelate salts and remove them instantly. This is not
just for the open, easy-to-get-to areas of the equipment, but also the nooks and crannies. Salts
Gone™ will aid in the removal of dirt as well, however, it does not break down oil. This means it’s perfect to use in conjunction with your oil-based undercoating products.
Interior Care with Salts Gone™: Tired of salt residue or stains on floor mats or pedals? Utilizing our Salts Gone™ wipes, pump sprayer, or hose end sprayer will effectively remove the salt.
The last thing you want is for your vehicles and other assets to be eaten away by rust. If not caught, it racks up costs in replacements and repairs. We recommend using Rusts Gone as a rust inhibitor. Rusts Gone works by using tannic acid to turn ferrous oxide into ferric oxide. Sometimes, even extra protection is needed as a barrier over these compromised areas. Thixo-Trop is a thick coating that can be applied over rust. You can use it with the Rusts Gone, by itself, or you can add zinc powder for the ultimate protection.

Does Salts Gone™ work with mag-chloride?
Yes, absolutely. It is “Salts” Gone in the plural form, after all. Salts Gone™ addresses all forms of chlorides, including sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride and calcium chloride.
Will it damage our vinyl wraps?
No, it will not. It is 100% safe to use over any vinyl wraps.
Will it strip wax?
No, Salts Gone™ will not strip wax or ceramic coatings.
Can I use it over our lanolin oil undercoating?
Yes, Salts Gone™ does not emulsify oil. This means it will not break down or remove any existing undercoating on the truck. This also means that if your facility has a waste water/oil separator, it will not emulsify the oil and render that equipment useless.
Do I need to use soap after?
Salts Gone™ contains premium surfactants in it. This eliminates the need for another step in washing. Salt removal does not require any brushing, scrubbing or pressure. For the removal of dirt, you will need some type of agitation with either a brush or pressure.
Can I use it in a foam cannon?
Yes, absolutely!
How much will I go through?
