Default Should I rust proof my 2018 nx ?

Hello ! I live in Canada and salt is a major issue during winter and I’m wondering if anybody rust proofed there nx and if it is necessary. I’m planning on keeping the car for a long time . Only issue that I’m afraid of is rubber seals that can eventually start swelling ....

thanks in advance !

I live in Toronto and have only Quick Replyused Corrossion Free instead of Krown .....Its non drip and doesnt swell the rubbers. I do both my vehicles every year.

Pauljak, I'm in Canada too (Montreal area) and had it done on my 2018 with a permanent treatment, not the yearly oil treatment when I got it.
For me it's worth it as, like you, I intend to keep the NX for about 6-7 years (2 1/2 done) and then it will go within the family for other 3-5 years

Not sure about your region (I am in Lanaudiere) but I know that “Vitro-plus” has a Ziebart type protection that is of the permanent style I am talking about
