I like to add washing the car to my weekly routine. I tend to save change in one of the compartments of my car and use the change I accumulate at the self-serve car wash. Most of the time, I like to wash the car once per week and wax it on Valentines Day, Memorial Day, and Labor Day. This definitely helps prevent corrosion and keeps my car look its best.
Waxing a car is actually pretty simple. Car polish or wax is actually just a thin, transparent layer over the paint. The car polish protects the paint job from the elements and masks minor flaws such as scratches. Additionally, car polish seals the paint like an invisible barrier. You should always begin waxing just after washing and drying your car.
Dry the car off, then apply the car polish one small section at a time to the exterior. You might want to test it on a section of the car that isnt visible a few days before just to be absolutely certain that nothing bad will happen, for example, your paint rubbing off. I like to start at the top of the car and work down because there is a better chance of dirt being left on the bottom of the car. You wont want to rub that all over the car-you want that to be the last part that you do.
When you have finished applying, buff the car to a shine using a clean, soft cloth. I prefer to buy a towel to use specifically for this process, but an old house towel will do the job as long as its clean and soft.
These are some basic instructions that will help you to keep your car just as shiny and beautiful as the day you brought it home. Keeping your car doesnt take long, and can be fun!
