A CAR cleaning expert has revealed four things you should never do while washing your motor.<\/p>\n

The detailing whizz from Expect Car Care took to TikTok to advise drivers on how to keep their ride in tip-top shape.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The expert, from the Netherlands, started by telling motorists never to wash the body of the car before washing the wheels.<\/p>\n

While many might not think of it, it actually makes a lot of sense as the tyres and wheel rims are usually the dirtiest part of the car.<\/p>\n

If you wash them last, it risks splashing mud and grime back onto the paintwork that you have just cleaned.<\/p>\n

All you need to do is give them a spray with you favourite strong cleaner and then rinse them thoroughly.<\/p>\n

Secondly, urged drivers not to touch the paintwork at all before doing a "prewash".<\/p>\n

Prewash is a product that protects the paint from stains and damage, including the soap stains which can result from washing without it.<\/p>\n

It is available online for as little as \u00a31.99 and is a great way to leave your motor sparkling.<\/p>\n

Next, the expert recommended always washing in straight lines and avoiding circular motions with the sponge or pressure washer.<\/p>\n

This helps to avoid soap streaking and gives the car a shiny, uniform finish.<\/p>\n

Finally, he said: "Never drive unprotected.<\/p>\n

"Always have some sort of paint protection applied.<\/p>\n

"[This will] minimize micro scratches [and] keep your car looking good."<\/p>\n

Paint protecting sprays can be found online for around \u00a31.<\/p>\n
