Protect Your Paint This Summer

As summer nears closer, the temperature will continue to climb. With the increase in temperature comes the increase of potential damage to your car's paint and exterior. From caring for your car's exterior to protecting your paint, there are a number of ways to keep your paint in tip-top condition this summer. Your trusted car dealer in mid-MO knows how important it is to keep your car looking fresh, especially during the summer months. Take a look at the ways to protect your ride's exterior, provided below by Spieler's Inc.

Remove Any Debris

With a number of summer storms in our future, it's important to remove any debris from your vehicle in a timely manor. Whether it's pollen, leaves, or dust, these particles can bake onto your vehicle's paint in the heat of the summer and cause damage. Along with heat causing damage from debris, during a windy day or driving down the highway, these particles can scratch the surface of your vehicle as they blow around.

Wash, Wash, Wash

Keep your paint looking fresh and clean by washing it frequently. Especially if you park your vehicle outside, consider washing your ride more frequently to remove any grime and dirt that builds up throughout the day and overnight. Whether you wash your car at home or go to a local car wash, it's important to remove all dirt and grime from your paint's surface.

Dry Your Car

After your trip to the car wash (or your driveway), make sure you use a clean microfiber cloth to dry your paint off. This can help remove excess dirt and/or dust that remains on the surface that can cause scratches or imperfections to your car exterior.

Shine Up The Paint

A layer of wax on top of your car's finish can help protect it from debris scratches, as well as the ultraviolet rays of the sun. The sun's rays can lead to faded paint color and wear down the clear coat that protects your vehicle's exterior. Wax adds an additional buffer and helps to protect damage from the sun, especially in the summer months.

Keep an Eye on the Condition

As you drive your vehicle this summer, keep an eye on the paint to ensure damage does not proceed. To keep the condition of your paint in tip-top shape, address any issues that you notice happening, especially in the summer when heat and other elements can cause further damage to your paint.
