as long as you wash it off with cold water and not hot water. The hot
water encourages the acidity value i believe. Its recommended to hose
teh salt off with cold water and spray with a water repellent lube
like WD40.
I clean the bike once a week and spray heavily. I was going to start
using the new scotoiler preventer lube as its meant to withstand the
end of day wash
