Some car soaps even have small amounts of synthetic wax, which helps fill in those tiny scratches and leave your car looking shiny and new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you want to rinse your mitt, don\u2019t stick it back in your soap bucket. Instead, get a different bucket full of water for rinsing your mitt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rather than pour out the filthy bucket of water on your car when you\u2019re finished, use a hose to rinse the soap off. Then finish by using a microfiber towel to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s best to use a nozzle on the end of your hose so you are able to control the amount of water, but be careful not to blast the water too hard. A fine mist works very well to effectively rinse your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The sun heats your car very quickly, and thus causes the water to evaporate too quickly. In order to avoid spots, try washing your car on a cloudy day or in the shade. That way, it should still be wet enough when you are ready to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have any questions about washing your car, feel free to get in touch with our team at Sherwood Ford. We look forward to helping you maintain your vehicle<\/a> and keep it looking shiny and new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n6 Tips for washing your car<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
