Driving In The Dark

When you purchase a new car, you want to keep your car looking like new as long as

possible.

With consideration and care for both the interior and exterior of your vehicle, you can keep that showroom shine for a long time.

A car looks new when it's clean, shiny, and bright.

A car with a well maintained look will make you feel better and at the time of sale will

result in a higher resale value.

The Following Are Some Ways to Keep Your Car Looking Like New

Some of us do have time to get our car washed once per week and if we do then that is great, as it helps to keep our car

looking like new.

Myself, I tend to wash my car only

when it looks dirty.

I do, however, take it to a car wash that does a great job of making it sparkle.

Exterior cleaning is what makes a car continue to look new and it is the type of cleaning that most other drivers observe.

If you are not ready to take you car to the car wash or to wash the entire car yourself,

spot cleaning the exterior of your the car can be very helpful.

This means removing bird

droppings or tree sap for example.

These types of spots should be removed as quickly as possible, because they can

gradually eat into the paint of your car and do some significant surface damage.

Everybody has their method for cleaning this stuff off, so find out what process you

prefer and stick to it.

Of course one of the most ideal approaches to keep your vehicle's exterior clean is to

keep it in a garage when it's not being driven.

This protects the car from tree sap, bird droppings, snow, rain, and dirt.

Using the right cleaner for the right material is also very important and helps the car

looking like new.

Using the wrong type of cleaner on the inside or outside of your car could cause

damage.

A car’s interior has many different types of materials in it: rubber, leather, vinyl, metal,

and cloth, so make sure you know everything about the cleaner you are using.

There are numerous higher-end cleaners and lower-end cheap cleaners to look over,

so do your research for what fits your needs.

Try to clean the interior once per month.

If you have children or pets you may need to clean more regularly.

As with the exterior, always spot clean significant stains or messes in the interior of

your car immediately or they may end up being impossible to clean later.

Some Other Things to do to Make Your Car Looking Like New

Apart from the interior and exterior cleaning, there are other things to remember like waxing,

using a car cover, installing rubber floor mats, cleaning the windows and using an air freshener,

which will all help to keep your car looking like new.
