Before the cold weather comes, we still have a few sunny days left. I am trying to squeeze in as many outdoor activities as possible, as I am sure you are, too. One thing that might not cross your mind as a fun outdoor activity is washing your car. Not only does it provide exercise, and a clean vehicle but it also saves you money in the long run!
You will first need a hose attached to some sort of water supply, and it is best to have a spray nozzle on it to control water pressure. Typically there is a spot along the outside of your house that will have a faucet you can screw your hose into for water. Now that you have got that under control, you need car wash supplies.
You will need a sponge of some sort. A big sponge is best to cover the large surface area of the car. You can use a natural sea sponge or a synthetic sponge, the choice is yours! A sturdy bucket is the next of the car wash supplies. You can use any sort of bucket, provided that it holds at least a couple of gallons of water. A bucket and sponge would be no good, however, without some car wash soap!
Using specially formulated car wash soap is important. House hold dish soap might harm the finish of your car, so it is best to stick with the real thing. Once you have the basic car wash supplies needed, you can being washing.
If you like to go the extra mile making your car look professionally done, there are a couple more things you might want to buy. A chamois cloth is good to have to dry your car by hand so it does not streak. Once your car dries, you can use special car wax to give it a beautiful shine that can make it look like new again. From soap to wax, all of these supplies can be purchased at your local grocery store or a specialty shop. Although the initial cost of buying these items might seem more than the price of a car wash, you can use them again and again, saving you quite a bit of money in the long run. Do it yourself car washing is an all around win, and between the sun and exercise, you will be cruising around your spotless hot rod with a smile!
