Protecting the finish of a vehicle is important, especially in an area like Miami. The reason for this is because of the winter weather this area routinely receives; roads are treated with a great deal of salt. While this helps to prevent ice and snow buildup on the roads, it is extremely damaging to automotive finishes. That’s why keeping it clean and protected with Car Detailing in Miami is extremely important.
The first and perhaps the most important detail of car detailing is to make sure that the vehicle is clean on the outside. Washing away dirt buildup from the road as well as properly washing the undercarriage of the vehicle can help significantly when it comes to avoiding any corrosion issues down the road.
It’s also important to make sure that the right type of cleaning agents are used, so that won’t cause damage to the vehicle finish. Some clear coats that are applied by the manufacturer can be damaged if the soap used to wash the car is too harsh. Also, the right types of rags need to be used to avoid scratching the paint.
Once the vehicle has been completely cleaned and properly dried, then it’s time to put a protective coat of wax on the outside of the vehicle. Depending on the finish, there are different types of wax that can be used.
Some wax products don’t work well on clear coat finishes while others do. Determining the type of wax may take a bit of input from detailing experts at a place like B Street Collision Center. However, once the wax has been chosen, it can be applied to the vehicle. This is done with even coats, typically with an orbital buffer, and removed. This allows the car to have the proper protection from rain, dirt and other corrosive elements that are found on the roads in this part of Florida. Also, this process should be done at least twice a year to offer the car proper protection.
If you want to prevent your car from rusting and you want to keep the car looking as good as possible, Car Detailing in Miami is essential. From a standard washing to periodic applications of wax as well as other conditioners for tires, weatherstripping and even the interior of the vehicle, your car can be protected and kept looking good for many years to come.
