When spring rolls around, many people like to get their homes as clean as possible. However, spring cleaning shouldn't only be for your house. In fact, it's also important to take your vehicle to a car wash as winter comes to a close. Here’s why.

Why You Should Get a Car Wash Now

1. Residue From Treated Roads Can Cause Damage

During the winter, when snow and ice storms hit, the roads are treated with salt. This helps melt the snow and provide traction for drivers. Unfortunately, it can also coat your vehicle.

If salt is left on your car for a prolonged period, it can cause corrosion and rust. For this reason, when the weather warms up above freezing, have all the salt washed away.

2. A Cleaning & Wax Will Protect Your Car From UV Rays

Chances are, salt has already started to chip away the protective layer that covers your vehicle's paint. A good cleaning will remove all signs of dirt, and a wax job can restore the top layer.

Waxing your car in the spring will also protect your vehicle's paint from fading due to the sun's UV rays.

3. Increased Driver Safety

Dirt and grime on your windshield and side mirrors can obstruct your view. Additionally, dirt over your lights may reduce the visibility of your turn signals and brake lights to other drivers on the road. A high-quality car wash can remove all these safety hazards, leaving you with a crystal clear surface.
