DIY Car Care

A clean windscreen is not only essential for aesthetic appeal but critical for driver visibility and safety, and the choice of cleaning agent and the technique used can significantly affect the outcome when cleaning your windscreen. One common issue many face is dealing with streaks that reduce visibility. We recommend starting with a high-quality, ammonia-free glass cleaner that is safe for both tinted and non-tinted windows. It’s also crucial to choose the right type of microfiber cloth, which can absorb without leaving residue.

Using a clay bar to decontaminate your paint is an essential technique for maintaining the aesthetic and integrity of your vehicle’s paintwork. However it’s not just about knowing how to use it, but also recognising the signs of paint contamination that can’t be removed with regular washing that will help you maintain the aesthetic and integrity of your vehicle paintwork while achieving a pristine and long-lasting shine.

Restoring headlight clarity not only improves the vehicle’s appearance but is also crucial for enhancing safety during night driving. Over the years, we’ve found that both DIY methods and professional treatments can be effective, but it’s essential to understand which approach suits different levels of headlight degradation. One of the key factors in achieving excellent results when restoring your headlights is the initial assessment of the headlight’s condition.
