Regular Washing:
- Wash your car regularly to remove dirt, grime, and environmental contaminants that can dull the finish and degrade protective coatings applied during detailing.

Drying:
- After washing, dry your car thoroughly using a clean microfiber drying towel to prevent water spots.
- Pay special attention to seams, crevices, and door jambs where water can accumulate.

Protecting the Paint:
- Apply a high-quality cream wax or sealant every 4-6 weeks to maintain the protective barrier and enhance the shine of your vehicle's paint.
- You may also want to consider using a ceramic coating for long-lasting protection against UV rays, water spots, and contaminants.
