Why Your Car Needs a Winter Wash in Vancouver’s Wet Climate

One of the things that Vancouver is most famous for is its wet and rainy winters, which you may think means you don’t need to wash your car as often. However, it is important to note that wiinter in Vancouver doesn’t mean a reduction in the pollutants and other debris that can attach to your car. The rain doesn’t do a very good job of removing these pollutants and in many ways can make them worse. In today’s blog we will be looking at why your car needs a winter wash in Vancouver’s wet climate.

Protect your Paint

One of the main reasons to wash your car, no matter the season, is to protect your car’s paint job which faces many threats in Vancouver’s wet climate For starters rain in cities can contain atmospheric pollutants that will fall onto your vehicle in raindrops, it also increases the possibility of mud and other debris sticking to your vehicle. If these pollutants are left on your vehicle they will start to eat away at the clear coat, the special coating that covers your vehicle’s paint and protects it and without that protection your car’s colour will fade, it will be at greater risk of scratches and rust and it’ll start to look dull and shabby.

Why choose Shine Auto Wash?

Our state-of-the-art car wash system can remove the pollutants with little difficulty and many of our washes have additional layers of protection that can be added to your vehicle to further protect it. These include features like our triple foam polish and our clear coat protectant, which will help preserve the shine and colour of your car. Our under-body rinse can also help your car get rid of all of the gunk and grime that can build up under the car’s body, putting it at risk of rust and other wear and tear.
