Car Washes Kick The Bucket

There's nothing worse than a filthy car. Apart from one's home, a person's automobile is likely their biggest single investment, so it's amazing how few people really know how to keep their cars looking showroom new.

"Washing your car doesn't have to be a major chore," says Michael L. Metter, President and CEO of SpongeTech(R) Delivery Systems, Inc., a New York-based company that creates revolutionary cleaning products for cars, canines, and kids. Waxing philosophical, Metter offers the following tips for giving your car a spotless sponging down:

    --  Wash Your Car Regularly!: Bug and bird droppings, dirt, and
        salt can cause corrosion if left unattended, so give your car
        a proper wash at least twelve times a year. Bird droppings are
        highly acidic, so the longer their leavings are left on your
        hood, the more damage they'll cause to your paint job.

    --  Don't Just Wash, Wax!: Wax sealants help protect paint from
        scratches and damage from chemicals, keeps paint from fading,
        and keep your car looking shiny.

    --  Respect The Beltline!: Since scratchy silicone and salt tend
        to accumulate below the beltline (approximately the middle of
        the side of the vehicle), particularly during winter months,
        it's advisable to wash one section of the car at a time so as
        not to redistribute dirt and grit to the top, hood, or trunk
        of your car.

    --  Towel Off!: One of the most important parts of the entire
        process, improper drying can lead to water spots, streaks, and
        scratches. Use 100% cotton towels to avoid scratching. Work
        from the top down, gently blotting, not wiping, water from the
        surface.

    --  Kick The Bucket!: Wash and wax your vehicle to a professional
        finish in less than thirty minutes with the original
        SpongeTech(R), an exciting new cleaning product with soaps,
        shampoos, and waxes already built in!
