There is a car that has a twinkling light without a scratch even if you take 10 years, but there are many cars that are dirty and scarred even after less than a year. Let me tell you how to clean your faithful robe cleanly.

First of all, the surface of the car is composed of clear coat> base> primer> body panel from the upper part, but too frequent water charge can lead to weakness of clear coat.

4 When driving on a road sprayed with calcium chloride


* Wrong way to wash

1. Washing with kitchen detergent or washing detergent. This is the result of removing the inherent oil content on the car surface, which can cause the paint surface to become dry and lose its glossiness.

2. Use a rough towel, or use a towel with a high contamination, and the coarse microfiber towel contains small amount of sand. Rubbing and rubbing in such a state can cause scratches on the surface

3. Frequent watercourses may cause rust. Please dry immediately after the water charge.

4. Please note that washing in a car wash may cause minor scratches on the surface of the car. Nowadays, there are many places that use Touchless type.

1. If the ceiling material is synthetic resin, wipe the interior cleaner with warm water, and wipe it with a rag. If it is a cloth, it can be wiped after it is worn on the microfiber cloth.

2. Use a vacuum cleaner or wet cloth on the floor. Remove the odor by spraying a fiber deodorizer, fragrance or deodorizer.

3. Most sweat and dust are absorbed by the sheet. Most of the unpleasant odors in the car are caused by unclean sheets. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from all corners, spray the fabric cleaner thoroughly, dissolve the time, and wipe it off with a dry cloth.

4. If ventilation ducts and air conditioner dust accumulate, there is a risk of causing respiratory illness when the air conditioner is activated, which uses an indoor cleaning agent to wipe dust off. Then clean the dust in every corner carefully with a cotton swab. Recently, a lot of air-conditioner cleaners and special medicines are available.

5. The steering wheel is a place with lots of sweat and dirt on your hands. Some drivers also use Reza wax, which can make the steering wheel slippery and hinder safe driving.

6. If the glass is dirty, it will reduce the driver's concentration during operation. Please wipe it by spraying the glass cleaning solution frequently and always keep it clean.

When you wash 1 car, you can see that there are lots of black dots on the bodywork around the front wheel.
