Most people who own luxury vehicles want to tend to their own rides instead of taking it to a high-class detail company. This way, owners can ensure that only safe products are used on their sophisticated ride. Some cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that can tarnish a car’s finish.

For example, most people don’t realize there are different types of cloths to use on cars. Always use microfiber towels when drying a car; these are the best option because they won’t ruin the paint. Don’t forget to clean the interior, too. A messy vehicle is the furthest thing from luxury. Never scrub the interior, it isn't the floor, caress the interior with passion and care.
