Doing An Effective Car Wash On Your Own

By Francine Balin

For a lot of of us, our vehicle is a prized asset that we would like to keep shining and in excellent condition, for a long period. If you too love your car so much, you have to ensure a regular car wash in addition to the regular mechanical care that you will be periodically undertaking.

With a few easy tips and the right type of accessories you can give your car the ideal car wash. You can begin by hosing down your vehicle to get rid of the layer of dust and grime from its surface. The next step is soaping the roof with a good brand of car wash shampoo.

Do not use kitchen detergents, no matter how efficient they are with your greasy dishes. They can cause abrasion of car surface and leave your vehicle devoid of its real lustre and shine. There are a lot of good car soaps available in the market, just make sure to choose a high quality one.

You must also make sure that your sponge is not worn out and dirty, as otherwise you might make the car look dirtier, rather than making it cleaner, by putting more dirt on it. It is also advisable to make use of micro fibre mitts to clean your car body, so that the gloss remains intact.

Once you have washed the roof, go through the same process with the rest of the body of the car. After you are certain that you have soaped and scrubbed to your heart's content, use the hose once again to wash off the car thoroughly. After this, your vehicle still needs a little more to be done to gleam and shine again.

Leaving your car in standing in the sunlight after just having cleaned it will result in water marks all over the surface of the car. Therefore, you should use chamois leather to rub it properly so that it shines with a new found lustre.

The final result of the entire process will be nothing short of an expert car wash and you are certain to be satisfied with all your effort and labour. - 2368
