Proper Car Washing Tips
Regular car washing is an important task to
maintain your car's appearance. Most people
tend to neglect some of the simple and quick
steps that can keep an auto looking new. To
make your job easier, invest in a few good car
wash supplies. Quality car wash tools can make
a big difference.
Armed with a bucket and water hose, here are
the proper steps to make car washing easier:
1. As much as possible, work in the shade, out
of direct sunlight. Elevated paint temperatures
cause the water to evaporate too quickly, increasing
the likelihood of water spotting and staining.
2. Start by preparing a bucket with a car wash
shampoo. Wash the wheels first. This prevents
you from splattering cleaners, dirt and brake
dust on already cleaned panels. Begin at the
top of the car working your way down. Take you
time in washing the surface and do one panel
at a time to keep the suds from drying.
3. After each panel, proceed to rinsing your
mitt in the bucket with the clean water. To
prevent scratches when drying your car, use
a soft, absorbent terry-cloth towel or a chamois.
4. You should also polish your car's paint using
a polisher and a high grade polish. This is
a great way not only to clean the paint but
to smooth out the surface before you wax it.
The final step is to wax or seal the paint.
5. Take just a few extra minutes when you wash
to wipe down the engine, door jambs and trunk.
Keeping these parts clean will prevent a bigger
clean-up job later.
