Not everyone is fortunate enough to own an exotic car like the one above, but no matter what car you drive, it’s an investment that should be maintained to hold it’s value. Car Care 101 is intended to give you information on ways to keep your vehicle looking good without spending an excessive amount of time, money and energy, which are all in limited supply!
1. Organization - Have a designated area where you keep your car care supplies so they are readily available. It does not have to be fancy, a cabinet, shelf, drawer, bucket, box or crate will work!
2. Equipment - You need chemicals to wash, clean, polish and protect paintwork, rubber, vinyl, carpets, upholstery, leather and glass along with applicator pads and towels to apply and remove them. Below are recommendations for a basic setup for vehicles from new to 3 yrs old in good condition using Autoglym products. To avoid duplication, products were chosen based on their versatility, example; “Engine Cleaner” was chosen over “Clean Wheels” because it is safe and effective for cleaning ALL types of wheels in addition to it’s other multiple uses.
After you look at the table below, click here to go to our “How To” page for information on application of the products. All products are available for purchase at our Online Store.
