A Clean Truck Gets a Higher Selling Price

By Ashdown G. Richardson


No doubt about it if you maintain your car's appearance not only do you look finer when you drive down the street proudly in vehicle, but also when it comes time for trade in not only will your car command a higher trade in value, but as well will be more desirable by the dealer or a private purchaser that is if you sell your auto yourself privately.

Ultraviolet light - U.V. light, can cause in chemical terms oxidation. Oxidation, in chemical terms, can be explained a chemical breakdown in paint pigments. You may well have noticed the results of harmful chemical oxidation on appearance of your Ford F150 FX4 XTR truck which you drive proudly.

So it pays to maintain your vehicle inside and out, upholstery as well as mechanical and electrical. Yet many auto owners don't wash their car, truck or SUV properly. Sure you can take your vehicle to a professional chamois car wash yet its fun, less expensive and certainly a nice way to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon carefully and fully washing your vehicle.

A thorough wash and wax treatment will not only improve your car's appearance, but will also protect it from damaging rays of the sun. Park in a shaded area and use plenty of water from a hose or bucket. Use a car wash soap or mild detergent if your auto is especially dirty and filthy. Anything stronger can well damage the finish. Wipe with a soft towel or sponge, then rinse thoroughly. Spray the under-body and inside the wheels with a strong stream of water to loosen any dirt, mud or sand trapped under the chassis of your automobile. Lastly to remove bits of hardened tar or bug and bird marks, hold a cloth saturated with cooking oil or auto store commercial solvent road tar remover over the spot until the blemishes lift off or are removed. Finally give the surface a final wipe with a clean dry towel, soft dry paper towels or a fine soft chamois.

Lastly dry your car, truck or SUV fully and completely with a clean, damp chamois or alternatively a towel. Now you can stand back and admire your results. Pleasant driving in your perfectly clean automobile as you traverses the highways of life and liberty.
