How to Wash My Car Tips from Overland Carwash

At Overland Carwash we value our customers business but also understand that sometimes you simply have to wash your car yourself. If you find yourself in such a situation but with limited knowledge on how to was your car, here is How to Wash My Car Tips from Overland Carwash:

• Whether your car is basically brand new or a few years old, you'll need a proper choice of soap to wash it. This is a step many people with new cars don't pay attention to, thinking it's not necessary for a brand new car. The soap is definitely necessary to rid the surface of contaminants that could damage and scratch the surface but also to dissolve any products used by the dealership.

• When washing your car with a proper soap, make sure to use an appropriate microfiber cloth or preferably microfiber wash mitt as well as a large bucket of water to rinse and clean the microfiber wash mitt in-between. The microfiber wash mitt will trap contaminants and avoid scratching the surface in the process while you can rinse it in the bucket periodically.

• Finally, you'll have to dry the car. The best way to achieve this is using a large microfiber towel that many different brands offer. The proper way to dry the vehicle is to lay out and spread the towel on the surface of car and then drag the towel by holding two of the corners. The trick here is not put weight on the towel and to avoid pushing it on the car and doing a circular motion as you would expect during waxing for instance. 

And that's it. By following these simple steps you can wash your own car when you don't have the opportunity to drop by Overland Carwash. Stay tuned for our next series on how to treat the cars surface after a wash.

Why the Clay Bar?

This questions comes up on a regular basis as many of our customers ask "Why the Clay Bar?". The clay bar or clay wax is used to remove contaminants that are bonded or rather that have been baked into the paint or clear coat. This is a highly recommended step and procedure to opt for prior to regular waxing and polishing. These are contaminants usually don't come off in a regular car wash. The claying process shears the contaminants off the clear coat and encapsulates the aftermath to avoid any damage to the clear coat. The resulting finish by itself is an improvement but it is also a more ideal surface to further wax and polish.

Benefits of buffing your car

At Overland Carwash we get a lot of questions regarding buffing and the difference between buffing, waxing and polishing. It's no wonder there is a confusion as these terms are often tossed around without consideration to their real meaning. That is why we took it on ourselves to sort out the confusion and even explain the Benefits of buffing your car!
Waxing is a completely different process from buffing and polishing. With waxing the ultimate goal is to protect the cars finish from the elements by applying a seal and coat to the finish of the car and. So far so good.

The distinction between polishing and buffing is nevertheless not as easy to define. In fact more than not the terms are used interchangeably even among auto detailing professionals and car washes. One car wash might have a distinction between the two and even list two different services under the names while another car wash might deem the both as the same. The important part is for you to explain why you are considering a polish or buffing and what you are trying to accomplish. Only then can the auto care professional guide you in the right direction.

Buffing a car is often to accomplish one of two options (if not both):
- Reveal a fresh layer of your cars coat
- Remove minor scratches from your cars paint

The buffing is primarily accomplished either manually or powered by high speed tools. The latter is often performed at car washes and auto care centers by professionals. If you have never have used high speed powered buffers we advise you to consult a auto care professional first as the cars coat could get damaged.
The process and end goal of polishing is often considered as the same process as buffing which is why the terms are considered often as two different names for the same service with minor difference depending on car wash establishment.

We invite you to drop by Overland Carwash in West Los Angeles to consult our auto care professionals on the Benefits of buffing your car at Overland Carwash and to answer any further questions you might have!
