You might well be wondering whether to bother with a car wash when there’s snow around. It’s perfectly understandable.

Should you hold fire and see whether it snows or not before wasting your time and money? Or put a car wash on temporary hold if you can already feel the crunch of snow beneath your tyres?
Brilliant questions!

But don’t underestimate the importance of keeping up good car wash habits, even when you’re dashing through the snow.
And here is why…​

What are the risks of skipping a car wash because of snow?

A regular fortnightly car wash in winter weather helps to protect your car from unnecessary external and even internal deterioration.

Cutting corners can cause:

• Paintwork Degeneration – A professional car wash doesn’t just keep your car sparkling in the winter sunshine. In addition, it also repels snow and protects your car’s paintwork against snow and slush damage.

• Metalwork Damage – When the snowflakes fall, the salt comes out, potentially causing corrosion to your metalwork besides your paintwork. In particular, the undercarriage and lower bodywork of your car need to be kept clean and shielded from the salty slushy grime that can cause permanent damage.

• Mechanical Issues – If your car’s undercarriage becomes corroded, rust can form. This can cause serious mechanical faults and failures if parts get compromised by rust.
