Why Keeping Your Car Clean is so Important

Keeping your car clean on the inside and outside isn't just to make it look nice. A dirty car can have a greater affect on the life of your car, and you, than you might think...

Nobody likes having a dirty car. It can make your car look terrible and make you feel stressed out or downright disgusted. Something to keep in mind is that although cleaning your car may make it look nicer, it isnt all about cosmetics. Having an unclean car can have an effect on the value and life of your car and might even have an impact on your own health.

Excess dirt build up can eventually lead to rust on your car. This will affect the resale value and integrity of your automobile. Even salts used to melt the snow on the street can lead to corrosion. It is important to have your car washed regularly to avoid any of these issues.

A dirty car can affect your health. When the interior of your car (seats, carpets, mats, etc) are ignored it is possible for mold to grow and spread; which can lead to health issues of course. Studies have shown that living in a clean environment can improve your mood by 50%!
