Auto detailing
Cleaning the auto is such a great Sun. dinner time activity ; sunshine, a bucket of soapy water, a sponge and the garden hose. But what do you do when you wish to give it more than only an once over clean? Where do you start and how do you know what to use and where? Detailing takes cleaning to a higher level, outside the common wash and wax routine.
It is always best to work from the inside out. Start by removing the floor mats ( vacuuming and washing them ), cleaning the carpeting and upholstery and finish with a thorough vacuuming. Use the different nozzle attachments on your vacuum to get into as many places as possible. Repair any burns or holes in your upholstery employing a fix kit from your auto shop. Dress any leather with a top quality leather conditioner.
The dashboard will actually give you a sense of what detailing is all about with all of those buttons, crevices and spaces you'll need to get into to remove dust and dirt. The best way to do that is to use a can of compressed air to blast away anything that shouldn't be there. At about that point, you use an Armor-All type product to put a small shine on the dash and consoles. Now you are prepared to move onto the outside of the automobile.
You can purchase DIY paint repair kits that are extremely cheap and simple to use making your car look like its brand spanking new when you have finished. Dry everything off with a chamois when you are done. Polish the vehicle to give it that last gloss ; it also will help to offer protection to the paintwork from further sun damage. Finish off that great Sunday with a nice quiet drive and show off your fantastic looking car!
