Spring is in...And with summer just around the corner, it’s time to grab a bucket and some squeegees. Basil is going to give you some tips on how to give your car a do-it-yourself hand car wash.
· If you can, park your car out of direct sunlight. This stops premature drying, which can blemish the paint.
· Fill two buckets with plain water. Add your car wash soap to only one of them. The plain water only bucket is for washing the dirt off of you mitt.
· Quickly rinse off your car with a hose (on a light setting) to loosen the dirt. Make sure you get the dirt off the undercarriage too.
· Soak a large mitt or squeegee with the soap-water and begin to wash your car. Start at the top of the car, and work your way around it slowly moving lower each time around. Scrub in a circular motion.
· After each section is washed, rinse it with the hose before moving to the next section.
· Clean the lower body and wheels last; this is where you will find the most dirt. Use a long wheel brush to get into the spokes of your wheels. Use steel wool soap pads on the tires to get rid of any oxidized rubber.
· Dry your car with fresh terry towels. When drying, open all of the doors and clean down the door jams.
