Living in nova scotia, I need to get my focus ready for the winter(salt,etc.). Which brand should I get? Or should I get it at all?

I think they are all the same...we use Sym-tech one time application....seems good so far

Krown. I have had it done on both cars. I've "heard" doing it every year is overkill, really just having it done right once should serve you well but for the $100 or so dollars I'll keep at it.

It is not hurting the cars that is for sure as they are holding up very well and the money is worth while if it adds just one more year* to the cars life.

*figure a new car monthly payment being $250(minmumum)*12 months=$3000

I agree with 2001 ZTS....I use Krown and am quite pleased with the job they do.
It seems to be a good product.

you planning on keeping the car and driving it until it dies?

if not, fuk it...just like buying synthetic oil for a lease you're going to return, it's only benefiting the future owner and you'll *never* come close to recouping what you spend when you sell ;)

Oh I plan on keeping my focus for a long time to come. Well Krown it is! Thanks guys.

I always use Krown. It's only $100/year and well worth it. I've seen some 2000 Focus with rust around the back wheels and tailgate. Krown's warranty would take care of any rust, but I've never had any on my cars. Get the 3M hood protectant while you're there so the hood won't get chipped and rust.

I usually do a search before asking a question, so as not to repeat something that was discussed recently, such as rustproofing. ;)

best rust proof by far = whale sperm,... tasty too.
