Car wash (BMW 5 Series E39)

            0

In most areas, for environmental reasons, washing cars in open areas is prohibited. However, not many petrol stations offer the possibility of washing your car by hand. Since these petrol stations guarantee that contaminated water will not penetrate the ground, washing your car should be done there.

If the vehicle is dirty, wash it as soon as possible.

Soak and wash off dead insects before washing.

Water generously.

Use a soft sponge or a very soft scrub brush with a hose attached.

Do not spray the varnish coating too much, just pour and soften the dirt. Rinse the softened dirt from top to bottom with plenty of water.

Rinse the sponge frequently.

Use clean leather for drying.

If used, use only good, fat-free detergents. Rinse surfaces thoroughly with clean water to remove any detergent residue.

To protect the paintwork, a preservative additive can be added to the water.

If you use detergents regularly, you need to use preservatives more often.

Never wash or dry your car in the sun, otherwise water stains will inevitably appear on the varnish coating.

Street salt is especially dangerous for the internal folds, flanges and joints of doors and hoods. Therefore, these areas should be thoroughly cleaned with a sponge at each wash, as well as after washing in an automatic car wash, and then rinsed and wiped with leather.

Note: After washing the car, the effectiveness of the brakes decreases due to dampness. Therefore, disc brakes should be dried by short braking sessions.
