Home recipe to clean your car
Here is an easier way to wash your car using some very basic household items.
Everyone wants to see their cars sparkling and squeaky clean but going to a professional car cleaning service every month is not easy on the pocket. Here is an easier way to wash your car using some very basic household items:
Things you need:
Shampoo, a microfibre cloth, baking soda, cleaning alcohol (available at a neighbourhood chemist), drinking soda, a cleaning mop, a stiff brush.Get started:
1 First, park your car in a cool dry place (to prevent the cleaning agent from drying prematurely and leaving soapy stains on your car).
2 Add two to three teaspoons of shampoo in a bucket of water and mix.
3 It's advisable to start from the top and work your way down the car.
4 A cleaning mop is ideal to clean the roof and hood of the car.
5 Next, the windows and the windshield. Dip a soft cloth in the mixture mentioned above and start cleaning. (Never apply the mixture on the entire surface, as soap dries quickly)
6 Spray some water at the end to get rid of the soapy mixture and wipe your car gently with a dry cloth. Avoid using a brush to clean the car and the windows as it will leave scratches.
7 For gleaming windshields, rub some cleaning alcohol on them. Dry them with a cloth later. A glass cleaner would work just as well.
8 If you smoke in your car, add some baking soda to your car's ash tray to get rid of any lingering smell. The baking soda combats this, leaving your car with a fresh scent.
9 You can also use drinking soda or detergent to get rid of the stains from your car's upholstery.
10 Also, it is best to clean dirty car tyres with a stiff brush and soapy water.
11 Don't forget to take a shower after you are done bathing your car!
