Dos, Don'ts, and Tips

Dos, Don'ts, and Tips
Do:

Wash car at least every 2 wks......This will help remove surface contaminants before they damage clear-coat
Wax vehicle at least every 2-3 months..... (I do mine once a month and car never ages)
Condition leather once a month...This can help keep leather from becoming dry, brittle, and ripping.
Get carpets cleaned at least once a year....It will help keep carpets free of food, candy, etc. and help battle odor
Vacuum car out at least once a month....This can help remove embedded debris, dirt, etc. from carpet and seats that can cause damage to carpets and seats.

Don't :

Wash your vehicle with dish soap... any car wash soap will do
Use those green dish scrubbing pads to get bugs off.... they will scratch clear-coat
Park your car near a sprinkler..... you will get hard water spots on clear-coat have to high speed off
Let your car dry in the sun......you will get hard water spots
Use well water to clean vehicle......the abundant calcium and iron deposits in water will damage clear-coat
Leave bugs on your car longer 36 hrs.....they will damage clear-coat
Use any window cleaner with ammonia on windows with tint......Its bad and will damage tint
Leave pens on seats.....They bust and leave an awful mess
Put armor-all on leather......Not a good chemical to have on leather
Put pam on the front bumper to avoid bug damage.....use wax in place of if so desire
allow animals weighing over 35 lbs on leather......it will scratch and rip holes and be very costly
Clean rims when they are hot.....much easier to clean
Leave car under trees,esp. pine....oaks leave trees sap that can be easily removed (not as bad ass pine) and birds sit and defecate in the trees

Tips:

Keep car sprayed down as to not let any water spots start drying prematurely

Use a "California Waterblade," synthetic squeegee (rag), and blower to dry car

You can use fabric softener sheets to get lovebugs off (just wet sheets).....make sure get off residual softener
