Many people love their car, especially when it comes out of the showroom. But over time, dust, mud and sunlight dulls the car’s shine. Many people think that thousands of rupees have to be spent to make a car look new, but it is not. With a little time and the right practice, your old car can shine like a brand new car on the road. Let’s find out how you can give your car a new life.

Bring back the outer glow

The first impression of a car is its exterior. Do this to look new.

Wash properly – Avoid washing the car with laundry soap or detergent, as this can damage the paint. Use a good quality car shampoo instead. Use a microfiber cloth instead of a plain cloth for washing, this will prevent scratches on the car.

Polishing and Waxing – Give the car a good wax once a month. It creates a protective layer on the paint, protecting the car from sun damage and maintaining a showroom shine.

Headlight Cleaning – Headlights on older cars often turn yellow. You can make them shine again using toothpaste or a headlight restoration kit.

Cleaning the cabin is important

Cleaning the interior of the car not only makes it look new, but it is also good for your health.

Dashboard Care – Dust accumulated on the dashboard makes the car look very old. After cleaning it, use a good dashboard polish or protector. This will give a new look to the plastic of the dashboard.

Cleaning seats and carpets – Remove dust from seat corners with a vacuum cleaner. If the car seats are fabric, clean them with a foam cleaner. Replace old and worn floor mats with new ones, it instantly changes the look of the interior.

Cleaning AC Vents – Clean dust from AC vents with a small brush. Removing dirt will also bring in fresh air and make the car look cleaner inside.

Tires and Wheels

Often people shine the car but forget the tires. Dirty and muddy tires spoil the look of the entire car. After washing the wheels thoroughly, apply tire dressing or polish on them. The black and shiny tires give the car a sporty and fresh look. If the car has old steel rims, you can also get new alloy wheels or stylish wheel caps.

Small repairs, big changes

Replace wiper blades – If your wipers are noisy or damaged, replace them immediately.

Minor dents and scratches – Repair minor marks with commercially available touch-up paint pens or scratch removers. Apart from this, if the car has minor defects, get it repaired.

Keep a good air freshener in the car

Along with the appearance of the car, the smell inside is also very important. Keep a good quality car freshener or perfume in the car and use it as needed. This will also make you feel better while driving. A good perfume makes you feel fresh as soon as you get into the car.
