Your recommended routine

What is a simple ongoing car-care routine?

Maintain the exterior and interior regularly, and keep vehicle safety checks and servicing on their own schedule.

Recommended products: CitrusClean, Wash Mitt, Drying Towel, Cleanse and T2 cloths. Choose Bio Nano or Graphene Seal. Use Alkclean, Clay Cloth and Tyre Seal only when needed.

CleanseT2 Microfiber Cloth

Application plan

Wash every one to two weeks as a starting routine. Clean spills promptly and inspect surfaces before deciding on extra products.

  1. 1

    Routine wash: label-dilute CitrusClean, rinse loose dirt away, wash top to bottom with the mitt and rinse before drying occurs. Keep panels wet if using the Bio Nano route next; otherwise dry gently with the Drying Towel.

  2. 2

    Interior: vacuum, apply label-prepared Cleanse to a lightly damp T2, test and wipe compatible surfaces, collect residue with a damp cloth and dry with another T2.

  3. 3

    Paint maintenance when due: apply ready-to-use Bio Nano to clean, cool, wet paint at 3–4 light mists per square metre unless your label directs otherwise, spread with a clean wet T2, dry and final-buff without rinsing; or dry fully, spread Graphene Seal through one T2 and buff with a second.

  4. 4

    For heavier traffic film, substitute a correctly diluted Alkclean wash. Rinse fully. If bonded contamination remains, use the Clay Cloth only with approved lubrication, light pressure and a test section, then rinse, dry and inspect.

  5. 5

    For tyre appearance, clean and dry the sidewalls, apply Tyre Seal thinly with a dedicated applicator and allow the label-specified drying time before driving.

  6. 6

    After each session, wash and dry cloths and tools, and store them clean. Follow exact coating curing restrictions before any washing or top-up.

  7. 7

    Check cold tyre pressures monthly against the vehicle maker recommendation, inspect tyres, lights and wipers, and follow the vehicle servicing schedule.

Final check: Choose treatments for the condition present. Do not clay, deeply clean or add protection automatically at every wash.

Follow the exact bottle and installer instructions for dilution, curing and surface compatibility.
