| CAR CLEANING TIPS
Tree Sap
Sticky tree sap can be safely removed from your car's surface by using normal isopropyl rubbing alcohol
Tar removal or tire white wall
Got WD40? This stuff is great for quickly making your white walls white & also for cleaning tar and splash road debris from off your car.
Spilled coffee?
Use shaving cream:
Make sure the shaving cream is the foaming type:
- Scrape the coffee stain with a dull knife to get the dust off and then vacuum the area thoroughly
- Squirt on the shaving cream and then rub it in
- Use a wet sponge to soak up the mess, rinse and repeat
- Vacuum up the water several times during the cleaning process so that the area won't become saturated with the water causing the carpet to have an odor in the future
This technique can be used on leather, vinyl and for fabric upholstery
Water Spot Removal - hard water from sprinklers
A solution of 50% vinegar and 50% water can be known to remove the hard water spots left behind from a wild sprinkler. Try this solution in an inconspicuous spot and use caution before applying in large doses. If this fails bring it in for a professional detailing at Sunshine Detail Center.
Do not use just any soap...
Household detergents can strip your car's wax it needs for protection. It can also leave spots and wear marks if left to sit in the hot sun while you wash, rinse and dry your car.
When to wax a new car?
Most have been on the lot for sometime, and we highly recommend you treat your new car to a good coat of wax to protect your clearcoat from many things including tiny scratches from cloth brushes at car washes (other than Sunshine) and to protect it from dirt becoming imbedded into the clearcoat through wear & use. (Your car WILL come cleaner easier, and it will maintain a shine)
