Three Ways to Protect Your Car’s Exterior
Protecting your car’s exterior should be an important part of your car’s maintenance schedule. Fortunately, if you haven’t already introduced this step to your maintenance routine, it’s easy to do so. We have three simple, inexpensive and effective ways to get you started.
- Covered Parking
Finding covered parking space is vital to protecting your car. Covered parking blocks dangerous weather, falling objects and the sun. If a personal garage or other form of covered parking isn’t an option, you can still make a car friendly choice. Ensure you are parking away from trees and shrubbery when not parking in a covered space. If possible, the area should be shaded to protect from discoloration.
- Car Cover
One of the best ways to protect your car’s exterior is to simply buy a cover. Car covers are important, even for those with covered parking. Fortunately, car covers are inexpensive and portable. They are a common and efficient way to protect your exterior from scratches, discoloration and more!
- Regular Wash
It seems simple enough, but regularly washing your car is often overlooked. A quick wash will keep your car looking new and help protect it from harm. Of course, the best option is a professional car wash service. At home washes can often be just as effective though. Ensure you are using a car wash solution instead of a household cleaning solution. This will give your car added protection!
