Yes every time...I give the underneath a blast with the hose too.

In the winter it's amazing the amount of ste that gets washed from the arches.

I do this when I get a new car



There was pretty much zero protection behind the liner and the arches all had rust on the inner edges creaping round to the wings

On the rare occasions that I wash my car, I do hose the mud out of the arches. Rust isn't really an issue as we don't salt our roads, but its amazing how much mud can build up there.

Mind you I've also had wheels out of balance from mud caked on the inside of the rims...
