You can wash your car at a car wash or by yourself. But you can wash your car yourself only in the yard of your own private house. Indeed, on the territory of Russia there is an environmental law that prohibits washing cars in public places.
Necessary
- - brush for car wash;
- - car shampoo;
- - suede for polishing.
Instructions
Step 1
If the dirt on the body is large and old, rinse off the sand first. This is necessary so as not to scratch the body. You can wash off the dirt with a strong stream of water or a dampened soft cloth. At the same time, do not press hard on the body.
Step 2
Dilute the car shampoo in a bucket according to the instructions. Do not use household products such as detergent instead of shampoo. The aggressive composition of household chemicals and stains on the body will leave, and the protective properties of the varnish will weaken. Draw warm water, but not hot. In winter, hot water can damage the body paintwork.
Step 3
Use a special brush for washing the car with a soft large bristle on a long or telescopic handle.
Step 4
Soak the brush in diluted car shampoo and start washing the body. Wash the car in a circular motion with light pressure. It is better to start with glasses in a circle. Then wash the roof - this is where the long-handled brush comes in handy. Then wash the trunk, hood, fenders and doors. Wheels are washed last. Change the water to clean water before washing each item.
Step 5
Collect clean water and rinse off the shampoo and dirt, spraying the body with sharp movements. Let the car dry.
Step 6
After the body has dried, pay attention to those places that have not been rinsed well. Wash them again and rinse with clean water.
Step 7
After the body is completely dry and there are no dirty places left on it, wipe off the drops and stains that will certainly remain after washing the car. To do this, you need a slightly damp suede. Start wiping the glass first, then the optics.
Step 8
The second option for cleaning the body is a non-contact wash. This method is suitable for new cars that require special care of the coating. To do this, you need a special foam that is applied to the body previously rinsed with water. Spread the foam evenly from the can over the entire surface and allow time to act according to the instructions. Then rinse off the foam with water using a high pressure washer or a hose.
