Paco, I'm probably slow.... but what do you mean by flakes? The salt? or
the paint? the salt should have washed off and the paint shouldn't flake off
because of road salt

cheers

Guenter,

You are not slow and thanks for the reply. I should have been more
explicit.

They appears as flakes of white salt. I used the word flakes because
they are not crystals but more like white specs which are very
difficult, but not impossible, to remove.

Since the initial posting I have taken warm, almost hot, water and
rubbed like h?ll to remove them. It has taken a long time but they
have been removed.

It is the first time I have experienced anything like that from road
salt, but it will be the last time. From this day on I will never
remove the 911 from storage until there has been a good number of
spring showers.

I can only imagine what that salt has done to the underbelly. It's
time to move away from the Chicago area.
