How to Build a Seasonal Car Care Routine
Cars face different challenges every season — from road salt in winter to sun exposure in summer. A seasonal care routine ensures your vehicle looks sharp and stays protected year-round.

Winter Protection
Snow, ice, and road salt are the biggest enemies.
- Apply a durable wax or ceramic coating before the first freeze.
- Wash frequently to remove salt buildup.
- Protect carpets and mats with rubber liners.
Spring Refresh
After winter, your car needs a reset.
- Deep clean exterior to remove salt residue.
- Shampoo carpets and seats to eliminate moisture and dirt.
- Check for rust spots or paint chips.
Fall Prep
Get your car ready for colder months.
- Clean and wax before temperatures drop.
- Vacuum leaves and debris from vents and cowl area.
- Replace cabin filters for fresh airflow.
"Your car doesn’t live in a showroom — it faces seasons just like you do. Care for it accordingly, and it will reward you with years of reliability."
Routine Recap
By adjusting your detailing routine to the season, you prevent long-term damage and keep your car looking fresh. Small, consistent steps each quarter are far more effective than one big annual cleanup.
