Title: Detailing your car
1Detailing Your Car
2I finally drove my other car today after having
sat there for a couple of months.
3 I noticed that the windshield was really dusty.
4 As I am pulling out of the parking garage I am
thinking, how I am going to detail my car.
5 I have some detailing supplies that can get the
job done, but to do a really good job I would
need to buy a few more things.
6 I will help you out and give you a few tips
about detailing your car.
7Detailing Your Car By Hand
8As a part of detailing your car, it is wise to
use two separate buckets when washing your car.
9 One bucket should hold the soap while the other
bucket will hold clean water.
10 After you have used your sponge on a single
section of the car, use the bucket of clean water
to rinse it and then run it dry before you put in
back into your soap bucket.
11 If you use just one bucket, you are simply
moving dirt off your car, into your soap bucket
and then back onto the surface of your car.
12While detailing your car the professionals use a
non-acid based tire cleaner.
13 If you use an acid based cleaner on your wheels,
they can oxidize and pit and this type of cleaner
can also cause the wheels paint or clear coating
to be damaged.
14 Make sure to clean your wheels and tires before
you clean your car body to protect the paint on
your vehicle.
15Which Polisher To Use When Detailing Your Car
16If you are going to want to polish the surface of
the paint.
17 Consider using a dual action polisher.
18 These polishers help to make your paint shine
and your vehicle look newer.
19 You could buy a orbital polisher and a direct
drive polisher, but why not get a blend of those
two tools in one with a dual action polisher.
20 This tool also does not have "forced rotation"
which keeps the polisher from moving on its own
during use.
21How To Finish Up Detailing Your Car
22The use of wax will help to protect your paint.
23 When you buy your new car it comes with its own
clear coat that it received at the factory in
order to protect the paint.
24 Over time this clear coat protection will wear
off, leaving the paint to fend for itself.
25 This is why you will want to use wax to step in
to help protect your paint.
26 The wax will help to fend off small scratches
and absorb stains, but it will wear off in a few
months and that is why you need to periodically
replace it will a new coat.
27 Waxing every season is a good way to stay ahead
of the game and a way to remind yourself that it
is time for another application.
