Protect Your Investment

Why is it important to wash your car?  To protect your investment of course!  Owning a vehicle is probably one of the single most expensive investments you can make, so it's important to appreciate it!  

Frequent washing is the single best thing you can do to maintain and preserve your vehicle's finish, but don't wait until dead bugs and bird droppings are on your hood to wash it!  It's best to give it a good cleaning after any period of rainy weather as well.  Unfortunately acidic chemicals in rainwater will remain on your paint and could eventually leave marks if not removed by washing.  Especially during warm summer months, use a mile bug remover along with a mild carwash formula to get those pesky insects off of your bumper.  Those little guys can do a good job of stripping paint if let to marinate on your vehicle for too long.  If you have access to a power washer, use this on your tires and rims!  The high pressure of water easily breaks up built up grime and dirt that collected over the winter months.  Also, if you hand dry your vehicle it can eliminate any sun spots from forming on your paint due to using hard water to wash it!  

But what about the inside of your vehicle?  That is important too as you probably don't think about the amount of bacteria and grime that builds up over time...  During normal use of your car it can gather bacteria and viruses from many places.  Within its small, confined space, heat can get trapped which allows moisture to condense and essentially providing a breeding ground for unwanted germs, bacteria, odors, mold and mildew!  We offer services to steam clean the inside of your vehicle and to wipe down every surface inch to restore your vehicle's fresh, just-like-new feeling.  Let us know if we can help!  Contact our detail department for more information!  419-842-7550
