Tips to keep your car protected and looking wonderful with minimal work.
We all love the look of a bright clean, shiny car. That “just waxed” look makes us smile. There’s just something great about a car with the brand new shiny finish, no matter what its age. Unfortunately with our hectic lifestyles, it’s not always easy to keep it done. Here are a few suggestions to reduce your car care workload, plus keep your car bright and shiny.
It’s good to establish regular appointments with yourself to take care of keeping your car clean and protected. That may sound silly, but a lot of time can pass before you realize how long it has been since your car was last cleaned. Just jot yourself a note down spaced at regular intervals on your calendar, or wherever you keep your schedule. I make myself a note at least once monthly, while others do it twice a month or weekly. I schedule the entire year at once, that way I don’t forget.
Whatever schedule you choose; just make sure it’s a regular schedule. This will not only help to keep your car looking great, it will also ensure that your car’s finish stays protected from the harsh environment.
Obviously, we want to keep dirt, grime, road tar, and bugs off our cars. These things definitely cause the car to look bad and do nothing to protect our car’s finish. That’s not the only reason to perform regular scheduled wash and wax times.
There are particles other than the obvious that can do even more damage to your car’s finish and cause it to look cloudy and dingy. Things like pollutants and excess moisture can cause deterioration of your car’s exterior. That’s why it is so important to make sure to regularly clean and wax your car with a product that not only cleans, but provides good protection as well.
Using products that clean and wax all in one step, saves you time as well as ensures your car doesn’t go unprotected after a good wash. Other items that are handy to ensure long-term protection are aerosol spray polishes. These are very hand between cleaning for a quick touch up to keep your car looking great without doing a complete cleanup. Silicone polymers in these polishes are safe for your finish and provide a good sealed protectant.
If you car is frequently exposed to salted roads, excessive fumes, or other harmful particles try to remove them as soon as possible. Granted of course, if you’re driving on salted roads almost every day during the winter, this may not be possible. Still, try to at least, go through the car wash once a week in these conditions.
As always, prevention is the best cure. By regularly cleaning and waxing your car, by providing good protectant’s, and removing harmful items in short time, you’ll have a car that stays shiny with that “just waxed” glow.
