    Is it okay to leave the vehicle unwashed for a long time?
    Wash off.. opt for some high chem resistant wax like soft99 12mo wax. You're better off protected.

    Volcanic Ash Impacts & Mitigation - Corrosion

    Crap, corrosive nga.
    I just dusted off most of the dry ash last Sunday night and covered the car.

    Ako ginawa ko doon sa isang car, no contact wash. Ash is concentrated sa top parts lang ng car (konti lang naman ung visible ash). So thorough pressure washer, then snow foam (sit for 5mins; ph neutral), then wash off ulit. Dry using air blower.
