Q: How often should I wash my car? A: We advise our customers to wash their vehicles any time they are dirty. Dirt works into the paint and deteriorates the surface of the paint due to many types of pollutants in road dirt. It is best to remove insect residue, bird droppings, and other residue as soon as possible to prevent damage to your vehicle’s paint.

And above all, don't let dirt accumulate! KEEP IT CLEAN AMERICA!!
