Share
A clean car not only looks good, but also helps preserve the paint and value of the car. Here's a step-by-step guide to washing your car like a pro.
1. Preparation
- Supplies : Gather everything you need such as a bucket, car shampoo , microfiber cloths , sponge, and drying gloves .
- Location : Wash your car in the shade to prevent the soap from drying and leaving stains.
2. Rinse your car
Start by rinsing your car to loosen dirt and dust. Use a garden hose or pressure washer to rinse the surface thoroughly.
3. Wash with Shampoo
- Shampoo Mixture : Mix car shampoo with water in a bucket according to the directions on the bottle.
- Washing : Use a microfiber sponge or glove to wash the car in sections, starting at the top and working your way down. This prevents dirt from the lower parts from damaging the upper parts.
4. Rinse
After washing, rinse each section to prevent soap residue from drying and causing stains.
5. Dry the Car
Use a microfiber cloth or drying glove to dry the car. Start from top to bottom again, being careful not to leave any stains or streaks.
6. Extra Care
Consider applying a wax or sealer to protect the paint and add an extra shine. This also helps make future washes easier.
