Why Vehicle Cleaning is Important in Winter


The tough and intense weather of late autumn and winter can wreck your vehicle in the worst way and this can enhance the possibility of leaving you stuck in the middle of nowhere, while you are driving. You need to perform cold weather vehicle care, which will help you to keep your vehicle in good condition and will also keep you and the occupants safe and sound during your road trip.


Tips on Cold Weather Vehicle Care
  • It is important to wash your vehicle regularly in the winter months as salt, snow, dirt and debris can cause damage to the vehicle’s paint and enamel. Ensure you wash the vehicle thoroughly and leave it in a shady place to dry.
  • The best kind of winter vehicle care method is the traditional two-bucket wash, which is a very convenient car washing method, especially adapted for the winter months when water freezes up.
  • Salt and sludge can easily get into the vehicle’s underbody and this can cause damage to the metallic components of the vehicle. When you are performing a vehicle wash on your own, you should perform extra spraying under the vehicle, which will take way the maximum amount of salt.
  • Use wax as this will act as a barrier between salt and debris.
