A clean car is generally easier to operate and ride in. This is because it is less likely to have an engine clogged by pollen or dust or have a cabin that is plagued by poor indoor air quality. At Twin City Used Cars in Gadsden, AL, we recommend that you wash your car at least once every two weeks during the summer.

During the winter months, you should wash your car on a monthly basis to avoid a significant buildup of salt or other grime that accumulates on the road. Getting rid of salt or other debris can help to keep insects or rodents away as they tend to be attracted to the smell and taste of road salt.

Finally, washing your car may help to improve its resale value. This is because it shows a potential buyer that the car was properly cared for while you owned it.
