Gloss vs. Protection: Finding the Right Balance in Car Care

Posted by Rhea Chhabria on

Your family car requires the same care and protection as any other furniture in your house. The first fundamental rule for caring for a car is to wash it regularly. While this is rudimentary, did you know a car requires more care than this? In this blog, we will share insight on how to take care of your car the right way. 

Car care extends beyond continuous washing and ensuring the paint on the car is not chipped. A clean car is not only washed continuously but also cleaned properly by revitalising it with a foam cleaner. 

How to use a Foam Cleaner to Clean your Car?

Cleaning is a critical part of car care, and it is necessary to know how COSMOS MRO Foam Cleaner can help in cleaning the car without causing any scratches on the surface of the car. The steps for using a foam cleaner are:

  • Spray a good quantity of deep cleaning spray.

  • Let the cleaner sit on the surface for 30 to 40 seconds. 

  • With the help of the brush, scrub the surface gently OR simply wipe with a microfibre cloth if it's a metal surface to prevent any scratches.

  • The best part is, no water needed !

How to ensure the longevity of engines and other metal components of the car?

The car is a bag of different metal parts, assembled to form a perfectly running engine. It is crucial to maintain these metal components to ensure the machinery's long-term performance. 

What are a few “must-have’ products for taking care of the car and its machinery?
