Steps to Achieving a Clean Car When it comes to washing and waxing, here are some tips to help you keep your car clean. When I’m ready to wash my car, whether I’m in the sun or not, I work in small sections. I like washing my car so I don’t mind if this is a little more time consuming. Wash the car from top to bottom. Just like cleaning the house. I use a separate sponge or mitt to wash along the bottom edge of the car. This is one of the places you’re more likely to run into caked on dirt and road debris. I don’t want to scratch my car with any leftover gunk that may not have gotten rinsed off, so I prefer the two mitts (P.S. you may need to rinse the sponge often to prevent scratches under the edge). Work the sponge or mitt in a back and forth movement for each section; then go over that in small circles, this helps me from missing any spots. Rinse the area you just washed really well. Move on to the next section and do as you did with the previous section and rinse. I will typically do the tires and rims after washing the whole car. This way my water stays cleaner and I don’t have to worry much about possibly scratching the car. Rinse the tires and rims and walk around the car to completely rinse it again, and when you think you’re done – give it one more good rinsing for good measure. To give your car a finished look, go over the tires with tire dressing to spiff them right up. Use a clean, soft, dry towel to carefully dry your car, this prevents spotting or take it for a quick spin down the road, around the block, or on the freeway to blow away any remaining spots.
