the problems seem to come from thawing.
If it gets warm enough in the sun, go ahead and wash it. I've even hooked a hose up to the utility tub in the basement and was able to mix hot/cold water and wash off the salt. Took about three days in a row to wash off the salt they put on the roads in VA, AFTER they quit laying it down.
Duct tape over keyholes is a good idea. I wipe down the door seals or leave the doors open after drying the car off. Then use a silicone spray on the door seals.
