It’s wintertime and the weather is not-so-fine. If you’ve checked out your vehicle lately, it’s probably covered in a heavy coat of salt, snow, and grime from traveling the winter roads of Annandale, Clinton, Somerville, NJ; and Easton, PA. Not only is this unattractive, it can cause damage to your vehicle! Clinton Honda has some helpful tips below to help you keep your vehicle in good shape this winter. Winterize with Wax - Wouldn’t it be nice to have some kind of extra layer to protect your vehicle against salt, snow, and dirt? Introducing our good friend, wax. One application of this will keep your vehicle protected during the harsh winter months. Even better, it’s incredibly affordable! You Missed a Spot - You’ve probably heard the phrase, “know your enemy.” This is especially true when it comes to car maintenance. Yes, we’re serious! Knowing the places where rust can start will help you avoid it. Road salt (the number one cause of rust) tends to accumulate behind the wheels, front grille, and quarter panel. Pay special attention to these areas while cleaning your vehicle. Wash It Down - While it’s not really common practice, washing your vehicle during the winter is one of the most important things you can do for it. Whether you’re power washing, hand washing, or automatic car washing, make sure you’re doing it every other week. It will dramatically improve the exterior appearance of your vehicle in the long run. Switch It Up - Your regular floor mats probably won’t fare well against all the snow, salt, and dirt you’ll be bringing into your vehicle. Try buying some custom fitted rubber mats to protect your floors. Also, if you want to leave the days of scraping your frozen windshield behind you, try draining your wiper fluid and replacing it with de-icing fluid. If you’re looking for more ways to protect and care for your vehicle, keep up with the Clinton Honda blog! Woo, Kevin. "Why Washing Your Car in Winter Is Important." YourMechanic Advice.
