How to best keep your car clean in Denver, Colorado

You will undoubtedly need a car in Denver, Colorado and along with the cost of it and driving it will come the responsibility of setting up an auto insurance policy with AFI Insurance, who serves the greater Denver area. However, you will also need to get into the habit of keeping your vehicle clean, as there is a wide variety of seasons in the central Colorado area. If you don’t, not only will your car look filthy and lose some resale value over time, but it can be dangerous, due to lower visibility on windows and mirrors which can lead to an accident. Below are some ways to best keep your car clean in Denver, Colorado.

CHECK THE WEATHER

Pay attention to the local weather in Denver, so that you aren’t washing your car right before a rain or snow storm. This will save you money and make all your car cleaning more useful when rain or snow doesn’t immediately dirty up your vehicle again.

WIPE THOSE WINDOWS AND MIRRORS

Clean your windows and mirrors regularly to ensure you have the best possible visibility in your car when driving in Denver. While you can use basic window cleaners and rags, the best way to clean these smooth surfaces in your car is with alcohol, vinegar and water mixed together and then wiped down with old newspaper. This cheap solution can be kept in your garage or even in your trunk so you can clean these surfaces with ease.

ADD WAX

After you wash your vehicle, make sure you spend a little extra money and time to wax it. This will keep it’s exterior looking nice and clean and also make it easier to clean in the future, saving you both time and money.
