Many people clean their car at the full/self-service car wash. However, if you want to keep the paint of your car in mint condition, the use of a car wash is not recommended. At a full/self-service car wash, the car is often washed very quickly and rather aggressively. Due to the aggressive manner of cleaning and the cleaning agents used, there is a fair chance that your paint may get scratched. And this is, of course, something you don?t want to happen to your precious car.
Washing your car is best done by hand. Many true car enthusiasts do this regularly. By washing the car yourself now and then, you make sure that the car keeps its shine. But that is certainly not the only thing that is important. Washing your car protects your car as well. A bit of dirt on your car is of course not such a big problem. However, some types of raunchiness such as bird droppings or salt brine can damage your car's paint. Eventually, spots may spring up. If these spots are affected by moist, this can lead to rust and erosion of the sheet metal under the paint. Next to washing your car, it?s also very important to make sure you use good car care products. At Winparts you can find a wide range of car care products from quality brands such as Meguiar's, Turtle Wax, Autoglym and more!
