Most car owners take a lot of pride in their vehicle’s appearance, especially if the car was purchased new or is leased. Taking your car through the car wash is not the best way to get it clean, and the harsh chemicals combined with ridged brushes can actually make your car more susceptible to scratches and scrapes. The best way to get your car clean is to go the good old-fashioned do-it-yourself route. While some car owners already clean their vehicles themselves, many others are unaware of the best way to get this job done without spending your entire day doing it. Here are some tips on how to clean your Ford Edge in Chicago.

Avoid Ammonia

Ammonia is one of the worst chemicals on the market, for your car, your home, and your health. Consumers are catching on to the dangers of common ammonia use, and have made the switch to green household cleaners. Still, there are car owners who still rely on ammonia-based cleaners to wash their cars. This can leave your car open to unsightly streaks, and can cause a host of respiratory issues if you happen to be cleaning your car in a warm environment. There are tons of green cleaners on the market designed specifically for vehicles, many at comparable prices. Don’t take the risk.

Start With The Windows

The best way to clean your car in an efficient way is to clean it section by section, starting with the windows. Divide the front and rear windows into two sections and use different cloths for applying the cleaners and drying them off. Clean the body of the vehicle next, and save your tires for last.

Never Let Your Car Air Dry

To avoid streaks, always dry your car by hand using different cloths than the ones you used to apply the cleaning agent and rinsed it off. Try and wash your car in a shady area to avoid the water evaporating before you get a chance to dry it off yourself.
