Cars are a vital part of everyday life for many residents of Hawaii. Not only is it important to keep everything under the hood maintained, but you should also keep your vehicle’s exterior in good condition. The easiest way to keep everything spick and span is to invest in regular car washes. How often is regular? The experts at Kihei Gas Kar Wash & Kwik Shop reveal that it depends on a few factors.

In general, service station professionals say washing your vehicle once a week is all you need to add that extra layer of protection to your car.

But not all cars are made and driven the same. Depending on a number of factors, you may find that your specific vehicle needs to be washed more or maybe less than the general recommendation. When thinking about how often you need a car wash, consider the following:

  • Location: Do you live in a windy area that blows up a lot of dust that sticks to your vehicle? Are there a lot of bird and bug droppings present?
  • Weather: Is there evidence of acid rain in your area, or do you live in a relatively sunny, dry climate?
  • Storage: Is your car left outside or under a tree during the day and overnight? Or is it tucked away and protected in a garage?

While you can take the time to perform the car wash yourself, it’s easier — and quicker — to trust a professional.
