So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Methods To Wash, Wax and Polish Your Car

By Doug Spain


Keeping your car in excellent condition means finding out how to properly look after it. Car valeting not only allows you to keep your car looking terrific, but stops the car's paint from becoming damaged by the problems of the climate.

The Tools and Techniques

Before you start, ensure you get rid of any sponges or worn out rags you currently own. You are going to require a woolen wash glove to replace them. It is crucial that you remember that you simply can't just clean your car with anything. Woolen wash mitts are capable of holding additional water, but more importantly, they're the right way to clean your vehicle without scratching it.

You'll also have to use the two bucket technique for cleaning - one bucket holds the wash solution and another holds clear water. Your clean water is used to wash the mitt once using the shampoo to lift off the dirt. Without this method, you would simply be moving the dirt back onto the car each and every time.

You will also want a guard at the base of the buckets to help make the two bucket process much more successful. Bucket guards are intended to block your wash mitt from picking up the dirt that drops through the guard. When you've done with washing the outside of your vehicle, you'll be wanting to dry it well using a microfiber or PVA towel.

Wash and Dry

Ensure you wash your car away from direct sunlight. Rinse your car completely initially, to help dislodge as much dirt as is possible. Start to wash your vehicle from the top and work your way lower. Work with a straight action with the wash mitt, overlapping a number of times to get rid of as much dirt as you can. Wash one place and then rinse it thoroughly. While rinsing, use a slow stream of water - avoid using any high force.

It's a good idea to use two decent towels when it comes to drying your car. Carefully and gently dry your car's exterior to avoid scratching it. Wring the towels as soon as they begin to hold the water. Use your first towel to do a lot of the drying. When it's saturated, make use of the second towel to dry up any leftover water droplets on your car.

Polish and Wax

Polishing will be the next stage here. To get the best results you will need to work with a nonabrasive polish. You may also want to use a few various kinds to get the perfect shine. Polishing regenerates your car's paint to a superior shine by getting rid of any small flaws.

A power car polisher may be used to make sure your polish is used the right way. It's tough to produce the same results manually. Make sure to avoid hurrying while polishing. Work steadily and within 2 by 2 foot zones.

Finish off the polishing process by going side to side to guarantee the entire space is actually covered. Try to avoid contact with the side of the electrical polisher's pad since this will result in uneven force and possibly harm the surface. The very last stage is to apply a carnauba wax or a decent artificial. You use the wax just like you've polished with the same alternative to work with an electric polisher. Putting on the wax manually will generally get a more desirable finish.

Pursuing these pointers and actions can help make sure that the surface of your car is correctly valeted and retained in the finest state at all times.
