Best Tips for Spring Car Wash in Kenosha WI

There is something exciting and fun about getting all the salt and grime off your car in the spring. Whether you clean the inside and the outside, the exterior of your car is the part that everyone gets to see. Making it look the prettiest it can is a fun way to shake off the winter blues and get ready to the warmer, sunnier days ahead. Here is our best tips for spring car wash in Kenosha WI.

There are a few things that everyone knows about washing a car. Park in the shade to avoid soap spots, start from the top of the car and work down, use soap… etc. We will give you a couple extra tips to make the process better.

Tip #1: Use car wash soap.

This might seem very obvious, but using any other soap has the potential of stripping the polymers from the outside of the car and accelerate the oxidation process.

Tip #2: Use a microfiber washing tool.

Is it worth passing on the cheap sponges? Yes. The microfiber wash cloth will help to trap dirt that you pick up when washing the car. A regular sponge will pick up the dirt, but will continue to dig it into the exterior of the car as you scrub, causing tiny scratches.

Tip #3: Use two buckets of water.

One bucket is for the soapy water you’ll use to clean the car. The other bucket is for plain water to rinse dirt from your wash cloth. Dip the cloth in the soapy water, clean part of the car, and then dip it into the clean water before grabbing more soap. This will rinse off some of the dirt from your cleaning cloth and keep you from contaminating the soapy water.
