Kilani Fender has seen countless vehicles in need of serious repair after an auto accident or fender bender. Fortunately, these expert technicians are able to offer impeccable auto body collision repair and help drivers get their vehicles back on the road. It's important for drivers who just recently had a car repaired after an accident to keep some simple tips in mind to protect the fresh paint:

  • No Car Washes For 30 Days: After the repair, it is important to remember that it should not be washed for at least 30 days because your new paint needs time to set. If you must, hose down the vehicle with cool water only and wipe it down with a soft cloth with no soap or detergent.
  • Wax The Paint: Wait 60 days after the repair before waxing your vehicle. After the 60-day period, wax it every two to three weeks to protect the fresh paint from dirt, bird droppings, and mud. Gradually, it will only need waxing once every six months.  

  • Keep It Covered: If possible, park your repaired car in the garage rather than the driveway where it cold be hit by sap, bird droppings, and dirt. After you've waited at least 60 days and waxed your vehicle, you can resume parking outside.
