How to Clear Snow from Your Car Without Scratching It
Winter can be tough on your car, but clearing snow doesn't have to mean damaging it. Here are some quick tips to clear snow from your car without scratching the paint.
1. Use the Right Tools: Use a foam snow brush or a soft-bristle brush to gently remove snow. Avoid using hard scrapers that can scratch the paint.
2. Start from the Top: Always clear snow from the roof first, then move down. This prevents snow from falling onto areas you've already cleared.
3. Avoid Hot Water: Pouring hot water on your car can cause cracks or paint damage. Stick to proper tools for snow removal.
4. Use De-Icer Spray: For icy windows, use a de-icer spray instead of scraping aggressively. This helps avoid scratches on the glass.
5. Clear Key Areas: Focus on the windshield, windows, mirrors, headlights, and taillights to ensure visibility and safety.
6. Avoid Household Items: Don’t use brooms or shovels—they can scratch your car’s paint. Use tools designed for cars.
