In the day and age that we live in today, cars and automobiles have become a part of our lifestyle. Other than regular visits to the mechanic for a general check and servicing of the vehicle, a car needs to be cleaned externally in a disciplined and diligent manner.
Why do we need to care for our car's cleanliness?
It is indispensable since dust accumulation on the body parts unless cleaned, can cause immense damage to the circuits that facilitate the running of the car.
Another reason why our car needs to be kept presentable and clean is for its overall appearance and aesthetic appeal. The condition of your car can speak volumes about your character, as its physical appearance is a reflection of your mindset. Here is a list of must-haves for making your experience with your car better.
