Wash your car as often as possible. Dirt is abrasive and can scratch your car if not washed off. Air pollution or acid rain can damage the paintwork through a chemical reaction if left in contact with the car surface. If you live near the sea or in a region (country) where road salt or chemicals are used to maintain roads, you should pay special attention to the underside of your car.
In winter or after driving on dirty wet roads, thoroughly wash the underside of the car. Use a strong stream of water to remove deposits of dirt and corrosive materials. Use a high-quality car wash shampoo and follow the manufacturer's instructions on the package. Shampoo can be purchased from an authorized Hyundai dealer or auto parts store. Do not use strong household cleaners, gasoline, solvents or abrasive cleaners, as this may damage the paintwork of the car. Use a clean sponge or cloth, wetting it frequently, and do not damage the paintwork by rubbing too hard. If dirt has dried, wet it generously and gently remove it.
To wash the wheels, use a soft brush or a coarse wool cloth soaked in a neutral cleaning solution.
To clean plastic wheel covers, use a clean sponge or soft cloth and water.
Wash aluminum wheels with a mild neutral detergent or neutral detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Protect unprotected metal surfaces by washing, polishing, and waxing. Since aluminum is susceptible to corrosion, pay special attention to aluminum wheels in winter. Wash such wheels thoroughly after driving on salted roads.
After washing your car, dry it thoroughly. After drying, soapy water leaves streaks on the paint.
In warm weather and low humidity, you may need to wipe down each part of your car immediately after washing to avoid leaving streaks on the paint.
After wiping, wipe the car dry. This is necessary to remove water from the paintwork so that no stains remain. Do not rub hard, this can damage the paintwork.
If you find dents or scratches in the paintwork, cover them with touch-up paint to prevent corrosion. To protect the paintwork from corrosion, you should wash your car at least once a month. Pay special attention to removing salt, dirt and other substances from under the fenders of the car. Make sure the drainage holes are clear. Damage to the paintwork can be caused by tar stains, industrial emissions, charcoal and insect remains if not removed promptly. If plain water is not effective enough to remove accumulated dirt, use neutral car wash solutions. To remove the solution after washing, always wipe the car. Do not allow the solution to dry on the paintwork of the car.
