How Can You Keep Your McLaren Looking Great All Year Long?

• Use the Right Cleaning Products – If you plan on taking care of your vehicle’s exterior by hand, you should make sure you have the right products and tools at the ready. This means having lint-free cloths, towels, and chamois ready for washing and drying. When it comes to cleaning products, make sure you are purchasing detergents and soaps that are designed for vehicles. They are formulated not to damage the finish of your vehicle and leave it looking shiny and clean after the process is finished.
• Add Wax to Finish the Process – A fresh coat of wax does multiple things for your vehicle. Firstly, it adds an appealing shine to your vehicle that will perfectly showcase the hard work you’ve put into keeping it clean. Secondly, it serves as a protective barrier for your vehicle’s finish against dust, dirt, and various weather conditions such as rain. Make sure that if you are going to wax, to use a clean cloth or other buffing tool to ensure a satisfying result to the process.
• Wash Your Car Regularly – The longer dirt, grime, and environmental stains remain on a vehicle’s paint, the duller the paint becomes. Keeping your car clean helps the paint retain a vibrant color and shine.
• Spot Check and Clean Between In-Depth Washes – Substances like bug splatter, bird droppings, pollen, and road tar dry up and cake onto your vehicle. The longer the substances remain, the more they eat into the vehicle’s paint job. Once such substances have dried on, they become much harder to remove. You may even scratch the finish trying.
• Keep Your McLaren Covered – Parking your car in a garage as much as possible will help maintain the paint job. If you don’t have a garage available, it’s a good idea to use a car cover.
• Get an Annual Detail – Even if you keep your car cleaned and waxed, it’s a good idea to have the vehicle professionally detailed at least once a year. A professional detail will ensure that every inch of your car’s exterior (and interior) is thoroughly cleaned.
