For a serious DIY guy, here are some useful advice to help you out:
If you are using any particular car paint protection products, it is advisable to wash your car less often since majority of these products also remove dirt, grime and dust off the paint. You can replace washing with wiping your car surface with a wet rag to remove even embedded elements in the wax layers. This conserves water and saves time too.
Only the painted parts of your car need paint protection. The products would have little or no effect on chrome and other surface areas of your car that are not painted.
It pays to be careful when using a product on surfaces that are near the windshield and windows. Cover them with plastic adhesive tape for protection before applying the products..Majority of paint protection products are also suited for vinyl or fabric car upholstery. Nowadays, you can find double-purpose products in the market which help maximize protection of your car inside and out. Never forget to read the label to ensure that you're using the product on the correct surfaces.
If you want to protect your car's paint without spending too much, going the DIY way is one of the best solutions. Always read the information on the products' labels and look for more information especially those from who have used it before to see real results.
