How To Take Care Of Your Car’s Exteriors

When we are buying a new car, we put a lot of emphasis on the interior and exterior looks. Once we have bought it, we forget to maintain them resulting in the car looking like a 10 year old model.

Cleaning the car will just take few hours in a week and keep it shining forever. Exteriors are not the only part to clean, even the upholstery and dashboard of the car needs regular cleaning.

Tips to take care of exteriors of the car

1. Use a quality car wash cleaner and clean the car with soft and clean sponge to avoid any scratches.

2. While waxing the car, do it under the shade. Sunlight can harden the wax giving it an inconsistent and streaky finish.

3. Go to service station to give a pressure type cleaning once a month. This is one of the best kept secrets of the envious shining car owners.

4. Apply correct amount of good quality wax. Using more wax will not make the car shine more, but will damage the look of the car.

5. Regularly rotate the tires to even out their wear and tear.

6. Be sure to clean the tires and the rim with a hose pipe.

7. It is commonly seen that people avoid the maintenance of the wipers and don’t change them frequently. This results in scratches on the windscreen. Regularly cleaning the wipers with a dry soft cloth will increase the life of wipers.

8. Avoid using wiper in case you notice dried leaves or dust on the windscreen to prevent any scratches.

9. Be sure to touch up the areas with small scratches or spots to prevent any rusting.

10. To clean the bird dropping, first soak them in water for few minutes, and then remove them with a towel. You can use wax to remove any spot left by it.

11. In case you don’t have garage, don’t keep the car under harsh weather for long periods. Buy a good quality cover to stop the deterioration of the car paint.

Remember if you treat the car like your baby, it will be a star sitting in your garage.
