North Texas Weather Woes

Spring Cleaning Means Keeping Ahead of Mother Nature

North Texas is known for unpredictable spring weather, starting with chilly temperatures in early spring and ramping up to include frequent rain, hail, tornadoes and apparently even dust storms. Whether your vehicle stays covered when not in use or gets parked on the street or in the driveway, dealing with dust, pollen and rain spots is inevitable. It’s essential to give your vehicle a weekly bath to protect the paint job over the long term.

Rain does not equal a free car wash! In fact, it’s just the opposite. When spring weather is more chaotic, it’s important to visit the wash often to keep your vehicle looking is best. Here’s how to make a professional wash part of your weekly routine. 

Wash at a set time each week. To keep your vehicle protected over the long haul, try to wash your car thoroughly at least once a week. Many of our customers have a set day that works as part of their routine when they can visit the car wash and tackle both interior and exterior cleaning tasks. For some, it’s on a weekend. For others, it might be a mid-day errand. Find a time that works for you to thoroughly wash your vehicle, including cleaning the interior.

Grab a mid-week quick wash. Springtime means frequent weather events, so consider adding a quick maintenance wash to your weekly routine. Monthly pass holders love being able to take a quick spin through our tunnel after an overnight rain storm. This is a fantastic way to maintain your vehicle and helps keep dirt, pollen and bird droppings from becoming more difficult to remove.

Opt for a wash that includes protective wax. Our Luminaura hot wax is available at all our North Texas locations and creates a protective shield between your paint job and Mother Nature. As temperatures warm up and weather remains a consideration for your spring car care routine, a protective wax helps preserve the clear coat and your paint job for the long haul.

Include interior cleaning in your routine. With frequent rain and ongoing pollen drop throughout the springtime, our car interiors become a muddy mess much faster than during dry seasons. Make sure to include interior cleaning in your weekly wash schedule. Tackle dust, dirt, grass and leaves with our high-powered vacuums, spray cleaner and towels. 

Every time it rains, dust, pollen and contaminants that hang out in the air accumulate on your paint job, causing unsightly water spots and eventually failure of the clear coat if not cleaned regularly. Regular car washes help to maintain the overall health of their vehicle, especially during months when the car is exposed to both rain and dirt from the roads.
