How to Wash your Car

No matter what color your car is, it will get dirty. Dust, dirt, bird droppings - these are just some of the particles that will make your car look less than stellar. However, this issue can be solved rather quickly. So, let's jump right to it.... how to wash your car.

Washing your car the right way takes several steps. Here they are:

1) The first step is to park your car somewhere outside of direct sunlight. Why, but isn't sunlight good?  Yes, sunlight is good but not when washing your car. Sunlight causes premature drying, which can cause splotches on the paint. 

2) The next step in washing your consists of filling a bucket with water. Also, after you have added the H2O, you can now add the wash soap. After filling this first bucket, the next step is to get another, yes, yest another bucket, and to fill this one just with water. No soap.

3) The third step consists of hosing off the car. Use a regular jet of water. The purpose of hosing off your car is to soften the dirt. Now, to avoid scratching the paint, just make sure not to use a strong jet of water.

4) Now, use a wash mitt or sponge to wash the car. Start by submerging your sponge/mitt in the soapy water and start to remove any dirt. This is the preferred method, as using a brush can damage your paint, leaving ugly scratches. You can wash your car starting from the top and going down to lower areas. Also, keep rinsing the dirt out of your wash tool (sponge or mitt) with plan water.

5) By cleaning section by section, you will be able to focus on one area. This means that after washing a particular section, make sure to rinse that section. This will help remove the soap.You do not want the soap to dry, right? Also, as you are moving from section to section, try to keep the entire car wet

6) Get your other tools ready. Use a plastic brush to clean your tires and a wheel brush to clean the openings of your wheel.

7) Now, rinse your car one more time from top to bottom and start to dry the your vehicle with clean, dry towels.

There it goes. Your car is ready to go. Your baby is clean and ready.
