The RAC has released a new guide to help you ensure your vehicle bodywork and interior is properly cared for. A great handbook for anyone interested in ensuring their cars and vans are properly looked after, and great for those with lease vehicles they want to ensure they don’t face charges against when it comes to handing them back.
It’s full of information, detailing the importance of specific tasks including how to clean the wheels thoroughly, paint decontamination, polishing paintwork, waxing, interior maintenance, leather car, using a clay bar and much, much more.
The step-by-step guides explain the purpose and importance of each process in a straightforward manner, to help you to carry out even the more complicated procedures - such as cleaning the engine bay - without causing any damage. With helpful illustrations and advice based on the author's many years' of valeting experience, this book will get your car looking great.
Entitled “Caring for your car's bodywork and interior” and written by automobile valeter of 13 year experience, Simon Nixon, the book is available to buy now priced from £9.99. ISBN: 978-1-845843-88-5. Published by Veloce on behalf of the RAC, more information is available at http://www.veloce.co.uk.
