If you're searching for a long lifetime and functionality in all weather conditions, an all-weather option might be better-suited for your vehicle.
We here at Hugh White Honda feel that knowing how to detail with a clay bar is important to know for all car owners. Before you spray on the lubricant, flatten out the clay bar into a circle that is roughly the size of a baseball.

Then, spray the lubricant and firmly press the clay over top. Lift up and you will immediately see the difference.

Most drivers understand the importance of having the oil changed in their vehicles but many don’t know much more beyond that due to motor oil myths that have been around forever. Believing many of the myths can actually damage your vehicle. Stop at Hugh White Honda and speak with our technicians and get the true facts.

From car maintenance "shortcuts" that range from duct tape used to secure fabric on the interior to bigger things like a network of super glue and rope to secure a bumper, there's no limit to the creativity that people go through to keep their cars on the road with as little down-time as possible. However, not all shortcuts were created equal. One thing that you certainly do not want to ever do is fill your windshield washer reservoir with regular water.
