Maximize your investment in long-term paint protection with proper care! We show you how.

You've decided to invest in long-term paint protection for your car. That's fantastic. But you have some questions about the next steps:

How do you wash a car with Paint Protection Film (also known as Clear Bra) or a Ceramic Coating? What are the proper washing techniques? How can you avoid damaging or shortening the life of your Paint Protection Film or Ceramic Coating? How can you maximize the longevity and appearance of your long-term paint protection?

Everything starts with proper car-washing technique.

Wash your vehicle regularly!
A lot of people think now that you have Paint Protection Film or a Ceramic Coating you do not need to wash your vehicle regularly. Au Contraire. Everything starts with a proper washing and a frequent washing of your paint's exterior.

Don't wash your vehicle in direct sunlight or while the paint is hot.
While washing your car in direct sunlight water can evaporate rather quickly leaving the possibility of water-spotting on your car. The heat can also exhilarate the car wash chemical and reduce its effectiveness.

Use a premium wash media.
This could be a microfiber mitt, or one of the many other options on the market today.

Use a dedicated car wash product.
A dedicated car wash product will be best suited for loosening debris. Some household cleaning agents can damage your finish.

Start with the wheels.
The wheels are often the dirtiest part of the vehicle. You want to get this out of the way before moving to your painted surfaces.

Rinse your vehicle thoroughly.
You want to make sure you remove as much debris as possible before touching the vehicle with a wash mitt or other wash media.

Use the two-bucket method.
The two-bucket method has been around and has been very popular with enthusiasts for a very long time. In this setup, you have two buckets, one with your car wash soap and one with pure rinse water.
