One of the most significant interests of someone who buys a new car is to take care of it and ensure it looks like it just came out of the agency. Therefore, besides general maintenance, here are some tips for you to take care of your car's paint, not only from the sun but also from everything that could damage its surface.

Use Car Wax

Let's start with the most common practice of drivers, applying car waxes. It is a practice that you must do with caution since some wax formulas can damage the car's paint. The most advisable thing is to use car wax with polymers that protect the paint from temperature changes. Although they don't give an excellent shine effect, they have a lengthier duration, approximately four weeks. As an extra suggestion, waxes with color pigments are not recommended as they contain substances that will dull the original shine of the paint over time. Natural waxes also provide a great shine, although they are not as durable as polymer waxes. Another option at your disposal is to check your car manual to see if the manufacturer recommends any wax formulas.

Wash the Car Often

Not only to protect it from the sun, but you also must prevent any substance from adhering to the paint for too long. With heat or low temperatures, substances in both climates can melt with the car's paint and leave marks that can't be removed effortlessly. When washing your car, first remove with plenty of water any residue that could scratch the paint if you cleaned it with a rag. It is best to use a bucket and throw it with force. Avoid using corrosive products, as well as sponges and brushes that scratch the paint.

Giving your vehicle a synthetic oil change is one of the most manageable steps to extend the engine's useful life. Visit Best-Synthetic-Oils.Com in Turtletown online store, or call (678) 787-3028 to contact an official AMSOIL dealer in your area.

Repair Areas That Have Corrosion or Could Deteriorate in the Future

Certain parts of the car can accumulate more dirt and corrosion, such as the fenders. Those areas shall need repair as soon as possible to prevent wear from reaching other spots of the car's surface.

Avoid Driving behind Trucks

Trucks loading materials or waste can throw stones or substances that could damage the paint if you drive too close. A truck can even throw gravel from the pavement and damage your car, so it's best to keep your distance from them.

Refrain from Excessive Car Polishing

Every car owner wants their vehicle to look spotless and pristine, but they make mistakes trying to achieve that look more often than not. Yes, you want your car to look spectacular, however, polishing the car more than once a year damages the paint, and you should be careful with this practice and leave it to the pros if you don't know how to do it on your own.

Store the Car or Cover It up with a Tarp

The sun burns your car's paint, so it is advisable to store it in a covered and well-ventilated place. If this is not possible, you can place a tarp cover, don't go for a plastic one since that would be counterproductive.

Avoid Parking the Car under a Tree

Bird droppings are very harmful to remove once they dry, so you must avoid anything that could expose your vehicle to these residues. Also, tree resin could cause premature deterioration in metallic surfaces, so please beware.

In Conclusion,

There you have it. With these simple suggestions, you will be able to preserve the shine of your car for longer and avoid unnecessary expenses caused by the sun.
