5 Summer Detailing Tips for INFINITI Vehicles

With the warm weather coming into full swing, it’s time to refresh your INFINITI vehicle to get it ready for the summer months ahead. The sunny days and warm weather not only make for great driving conditions, they also provide the ideal vehicle detailing environment. Detailing your INFINITI ensures that it looks pristine and helps maintain its value and performance. Continue reading along as our team here at INFINITI Downtown discusses five summer detailing tips to keep your INFINITI vehicle looking and feeling brand new.

1. A Thorough Exterior Wash 

Winter driving comes with a host of unwanted debris like road salt, grime and dirt that all inevitably find their way onto the exterior of your INFINITI. The best way to get rid of this debris is with a comprehensive wash. Start by rinsing off the vehicle using a pressure washer or a regular garden hose, followed by a clean of the exterior using automotive soap and a microfiber towel. Repeat as necessary, rinse, then use a dry microfibre cloth to dry the vehicle to prevent water spots from appearing. 

2. Protect the Paint with Wax or Sealant 

After washing, protect your INFINITI’s paint by applying a good quality wax or paint sealant. Wax provides a protective layer against UV rays, road grime, and pollutants, keeping your car’s finish shiny and protected.

3. Ensure a Thorough Interior Detail 

After months of cold weather, it’s natural that the inside of your INFINITI may be dirtier than you want it to be. Give your vehicle the treatment that it deserves by cleaning out any trash, vacuuming the carpets, wiping down and conditioning the leather seats, and dusting off the dashboard and air vents.

4. Don’t Forget the Wheels & Tires

Your INFINITI’s wheels and tires take a beating from road grime and brake dust. Make sure to clean off your stylish wheels using automotive soap, a microfibre towel, and even a soft brush to clean any hard-to-reach areas. Finish off with quality tire shine to give the rubber a sleek, glossy appearance.

5. Wash & Shine the Glass

Finally, clean all glass surfaces inside and out with an automotive glass cleaner. Avoid household glass cleaners that contain ammonia, which can damage your INFINITI’s window tint. Use a microfiber cloth to prevent streaks and ensure clarity.
