Things you should and shouldn’t do when washing your car
When it comes to washing your car, there are a few things you should and shouldn’t do in order to get the best results. Here are a few tips to keep in mind:
Things you should do:
-Use a mild soap or car wash solution designed specifically for cars. Avoid using dish soap or other household cleaners as they can be too harsh and strip away the wax on your car's finish.
-Wash your car in the shade to prevent the soap from drying on the surface and causing spots.
-Rinse your car thoroughly with water before washing to remove any loose dirt and debris.
-Wash your car one section at a time, starting at the top and working your way down.
-Use a soft, clean sponge or washcloth to avoid scratching the paint.
-Rinse the soap off completely and dry your car with a clean towel to prevent water spots.
Things you shouldn’t do:
-Don’t wash your car in direct sunlight as the soap will dry on the surface and cause spots.
-Don’t use a garden hose to rinse your car as the high pressure can damage the paint.
-Don’t use a dirty sponge or washcloth as it can scratch the paint.
-Don’t forget to rinse the soap off completely and dry your car to avoid water spots.
