Alright people? Let's talk about something we all love—keeping our motors looking top-notch. Whether you're cruising through the Potteries or just want to impress the neighbours, the right car shampoo can make all the difference. At Autobrite Direct, we've got a range of car shampoos that cater to every need, from high gloss finishes to deep cleaning. Let's dive into it, shall we?
The Basics: Why Car Shampoo Matters
First things first, why bother with a special car shampoo? You might be thinking, "Can't I just use washing up liquid?" Well, using the wrong stuff can strip the wax and protective layers off your paintwork, leaving it vulnerable to the elements. A proper car shampoo is designed to clean without causing any damage, keeping your car's paintwork in mint condition.

Tips for a Spot-On Wash
- Two-Bucket Method: Always use two buckets—one with soapy water and one for rinsing your mitt. This prevents dirt from scratching your paintwork.
- Wash Mitt Over Sponge: A good wash mitt holds more suds and is gentler on your paint.
- Top to Bottom: Start from the top of the car and work your way down to about hip height. Once you've done the car at hip height work your way down to avoid dragging dirt around.
