Cleaning the exterior of your car or truck may sound pretty basic – sort of like writing instructions for how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich – but when you break it down step by step, you may realize that doing things in a certain order produces better results.
The shelves at Advance Auto Parts are filled with cleaning products from detergent to bug and grime remover, wheel brushes to soft chamois cloths. If you’re unsure about just which products to choose, consult the professional staff at Advance Auto to get steered in the right direction.
- Wash your car in a shady area and when the engine is cool.
- Use cool water and a detergent specially formulated for use on vehicles.
- Wheel brushes gently loosen grime and other crud that gets stuck on rims and tires; rinse often to prevent particles from scratching the surface.
- Start at the top and work your way down, spraying down the entire vehicle wet before you start cleaning with soap. Work in sections to avoid soap drying on the vehicle.
- Wax provides an extra layer of protection for the paint job. Apply wax to a clean, dry surface with a soft, clean rag. Work in circles and let the wax dry before using another clean, dry cloth to finish the process.
