Summer Car Detailing Tips You Can’t Afford to Miss
Summer sun, scorching paint, and fast-drying soap? Here’s how to detail your car the right way when the heat is on.
☀️ Why Summer Car Detailing Is Tricky
Hot temperatures and direct sunlight dry water and soap quickly, which can lead to stubborn water spots, streaks, and even damage your paint protection layers.
🧽 Tip #1: Always Pre-Soak First
Use a proper pre-foam method with The Super Soaper to loosen up dirt and grime before any contact wash. This helps prevent swirls and scratches, especially on hot surfaces.
🧼 Tip #2: Wash in the Shade (or Early Morning)
Timing matters. Wash your car in the early morning or evening when it’s cooler, or pull into the shade to avoid rapid drying.
🧴 Tip #3: Use the Right Towels to Dry Fast
Water sitting on hot panels causes spots. So dry quickly with a Massive Drying Towel to soak up water fast.
🔒 Tip #4: Add Protection That Can Handle Heat
Tough As Shell Ceramic Spray is perfect for summer—it boosts hydrophobicity and adds a UV-shielding layer that keeps your paint safe in the heat.
🧡 Tip #5: Don’t Skip Interiors!
Heat damages interiors too. Wipe down surfaces with Complete Cabin Cleaner for a streak-free matte finish that won’t fade under sunlight.
🌡️ Bonus Tip: Use the Right Wash Towels
Skip the dollar store rags. Use high-quality wash towels like the Orange Wash Microfiber to reduce friction and increase suds retention in the heat.
🚗 Final Thoughts
Summer doesn’t have to be a car care nightmare. With the right products and timing, your paint can shine all season long—spot-free and fully protected.
