If you are like many people, you’re more than willing to take the time to wash your used car yourself in order to save a few dollars here and there. Washing your car yourself can be easy and effective - especially if you are willing to invest in the right tools and knowledge. Here are some tips and steps to help you wash your car the right way in order to get clean and shiny results:

You’ll Need Water

This first tip may seem obvious. However, many people have limited access to water - especially folks that live in apartment complexes. Therefore, make sure that you have a steady stream of water available to you. One bucket of water will not be enough to get the truly clean look you’re going for.

Go from the Top Down

If you have limited access to water, like many people do, then it’s important to know how to conserve your clean water for the longest period of time. Most cars are cleanest on the top and dirtiest on the bottom. Therefore, start at the top and work your way down. However, if you’re planning on cleaning the tires, then start with the tires, but use a separate bucket of water. Otherwise, if you start with the top of your car and then do the tires, the water will dry up on your used car and leave spots that are hard to get out.

Keep in mind that you should never use the same wash water on the body of your car that you use on the tires. Water that is used on the tires will often contain dirt that can scratch your car.

Rinse First

Always rinse your car before you begin washing it. Rinsing your car will help to remove dirt build up that can scratch your car if it is not removed.

Focus on One Section

It may be tempting to try to wash your entire car in one fowl swoop. However, it is much more effective if you can focus on just one section at a time. After you go section-by-section, rinse the entire used car again to remove any spots that may have gathered as the car dried.

Remember: always wash your car in the shade so that the water will not dry up too quickly and cause spots to form before you’re finished!  If you are looking for a new used car or used truck check us out at www.drcredit.ca we can get you approved regardless of past credit.

If you have bad credit, but need to buy a car, don’t worry! We offer bad credit car financing to all customers regardless of their past credit situations. Credit history and credit score will play a role in what kind of credit options you will get, but they will not limit your ability to get a car loan. Here are a few steps that you can take today to apply for bad credit car financing to get one step closer to owning a car:

Check your credit report.

Before you fill out a credit application, it may be wise to review your credit report. You can get an instant credit report from any of the three online credit reporting agencies. Make sure that all items on your credit report are accurate. Remember: your lenders will review your credit history when they consider what type of loan to give you. Even if you have bad credit in your history, you can still get a fair credit loan, but you should be aware of the reality of your credit history when you approach a lender.

Fix errors in your credit report.

You may have incorrect negative items listed in your credit report. You have the right to dispute these negative items to have them removed from your credit report. If you wish to dispute a negative item (such as an unpaid bill), then contact the credit bureaus and original creditor. You should have a response from the credit reporting agencies within 30 days.

You can select the financing program that is best for you in terms of ease and affordability.
