Car wash
A well cared for and shiny car looks a lot better than a car covered in dirt. A clean car does not only
look good, but it also ensures the paint to last longer. Regularly cleaning your
car will also help to prevent your car from rusting. So, time to give your car
a good wash!
Car cleaning
Washing the car yourself is
often a lot cheaper than letting it wash at a car cleaner or car wash. In
addition, the brushes of a car wash can leave scratches on the paint of your
car, which is something you, of course, want to prevent. At a car wash, you also
have a good chance that the brushes cannot reach all the corners. Therefore, it
is advisable to wash your car manually now and then.
If you are planning on washing
your car manually, you need a
soft cleaning cloth , a sponge and a wash mitt . Of
course, you can also order these products easily at Winparts. When washing your
car, we recommend doing this in the shade instead of in the sun. In the sun,
the car will dry too quickly, which can cause streaks on your paint.
Before you start, you will
first have to remove the loose dirt and sand from the car with some water. If
you do not do this, the dirt or sand can cause scratches while cleaning. Also,
we advise you to first clean the hard-to-reach places with a high-pressure
cleaner. When finished, you can start washing your car.
Clay bars
Do you regularly clean your car with car shampoo? Then the car might look
clean, but in fact, a lot of hidden or stubborn dirt remains on the car. This
dirt can eventually damage the paint of your car. With a clay bar, you can
easily remove this hidden and stubborn dirt. Using a clay bar is also called deep cleaning. When claying your car, you edit the car with a small piece of
special clay called detailing clay or smooth surface clay. This clay is not
like ordinary clay but is made of a sturdier material to which a mild abrasive
is added. The abrasive in the clay ensures the most stubborn dirt to be broken
down. After your car is fully clayed, it does not only look super clean, but it
also feels extremely soft.
How to remove resin
Resin or tree sap is known as
the most stubborn dirt on your car. The resin comes from trees, especially
during the warmer days. In spring and summer, little bits of resin drips down,
which eventually ends up on your car. Tree sap is stubborn dirt because it
strongly adheres to the paint. This is also why it is difficult to remove the
resin from the car. On the internet, you will find multiple grandmother remedies
on how to remove resin from your car. We, however, recommend you to use a good
and professional resin polish to remove the tree saps. With a good resin
remover, you prevent the paint from being damaged. Resin polish is a liquid
that can be applied directly to the paint. Next, the resin remover will
dissolve the tree saps. You can then remove the resin with a soft cleaning
cloth.
Tar remover
Another stubborn dirt is tar.
Tar is a black, sticky substance that can often be found at the bottom of the
car. When roads are newly asphalted, tar can splash against your car. Removing
tar is relatively easy, especially if you use a good tar remover. A good tar
remover will dissolve the tar on your car. You can then wipe the tar off with a
soft cleaning cloth or microfiber towel.
Bug remover
You can hardly ignore the
insects on your car, especially in the summer. It is important that you do not
leave the insects on the car for too long. The juice released from the insects
is often difficult to remove if left for too long. In addition, these juices
can also negatively affect the paint on your car, what you obviously do not
want. Therefore, you will have to remove insects for your car regularly. With a
bug remover or insect remover, you will get your car clean easily.
