Car Detailing Tips For Maintenance During The Pollen Season

Protect Your Clean Car From The Pollen

It’s that time of the year again and pollen season is headed our way, and this will be an annoyance for everybody. It causes frustration to all and is just overly obnoxious as it lands on everything possible as if it’s just like snow. Now apart from sneezing and bad allergies, owning a car during this season will be another common problem that everybody will have.  With all the trees blooming around us, pollen will be spreading everywhere and onto our cars. Every time you open a door or roll down a window, pollen gets inside. It can be a couple of days or just a day, but your car will be baked in pollen no matter what.   

While pollen looks very ugly on your car, what lots of people don’t know is that the pollen baked onto your car can cause damage, whether it’s the interior or exterior. It’s imperative to keep the inside and outside of your car pollen-free. You will want to do several things to keep your car protected, fresh, and clean. What can you do?  

Well, there are six tips to fight against pollen.

Car pollen cabin filter and washing techniques.Using A Garage To Keep Pollen Off Cars 

Perhaps the most obvious but easiest tip is to keep your automobile stored inside. This tip might not keep all the pollen away from your car but having access to put your car indoors somewhere heavily reduces the pollen that gets on and inside of your car. When some days are windier than others, having your car indoors will stop loads of pollen from getting onto your car.  

Rinsing & Washing  

With pollen being very tiny, it can get into every little crevice in your car. Washing your car or hiring an auto detailer to come to clean your clean is a must for all car owners. Doing this step will ensure that the pollen won’t be able to corrode your car away and destroy it. Your car will also look way better and not ugly. Even though you may have to do a bit more washes during the spring months, your car will be in better shape and condition in the long run. 

Adding Protection I.e Ceramic Coating

Now after that last step, adding a protective strong ceramic coating, wax, or sealant will make your life way easier and more stress-free. Adding this protection means that pollen won’t stick as well as it would without it. So, when pollen hits your car as you are driving, it will most likely just glide off and you won’t have to deal with it as much as you would before. It also doesn’t hurt to keep your car looking extra shiny! 

Checking Your Engine Filter 

Your engine filter collects all the dust, debris, and pollen and keeps it out of your engine. By checking your engine filter or getting a technician to inspect it, you can see if it needs to be replaced. Replacing it offers multiple benefits. Replacing a clogged air filter can increase fuel efficiency and can improve acceleration and overall drivability. It can also reduce your car’s emissions. Changing your engine filter will also prolong your engine’s life as a clogged one can create particles to damage your engine. 

Replacing Your Interior Cabin Filter 

Keeping the air clean and easier to breathe is a must for your health. Additionally, if you have allergies then replacing your air filter will be especially important. It will also take in the pollen that has entered the interior of your car as well. 

Cleaning Your Wiper Blades 

Pollen can build on your wiper blades every time you wash your windshield. Eventually, this build-up can clump into your wiper blades that can spread across your windshield if you use them. By cleaning your wipers once a week or replacing them, this won’t happen. 

Pollen can be frustrating and miserable, and you can’t do anything to stop it from circulating in the air, but with these simple tips, your car will be thank you and look good.

We are extremely well satisfied with the work done by Darren on our two cars; an eleven year old Audi and an eleven year old Lexus. The cars look almost new. Darren showed up on time, did the work efficiently and thoroughly, and the price was very competitive. We will definitely use his service again.

Tyrone came out today and detailed my dad’s Tesla model X for us. Let me tell you - that man is so incredibly positive. You just feel good talking to him. He spent a large amount of time detailing his car and it looks better than it did the day he bought it! We could not be more thrilled and will continue to use Tyrone every month to detail and keep it looking great! The pricing is extremely competitive and even on the lower end compared to other mobile retailers! We are extremely pleased all the way around!

If I could put 10000+ Stars I would. Words can't explain how satisfied, I am. Tyrone did a phenomenal job, he took his time and you can tell he loves what he does. My car looks brand new, the seats are so clean and when I opened my car the smell of brand new car hit me. If you are looking for someone to detail your car STOP LOOKING, Because you found them and the customer service is excellent! I highly strongly recommend them you will not be disappointed!

02/08/24 We are not local to this area, visiting with our son. Three large cups of coffee were accidentally split in our vehicle this morning... What a mess! Found some one online who didn't do interior detailing, however recommended Darren. He made arrangements to clean our truck that day. His men were here at scheduled time, did a fantastic job! Highly recommend Sumptuous Mobile Detailing!

Amazing and meticulous! Darren did such a great job with my vehicle that his services were requested the very next day by my hubby. My vehicle is so clean that I’m afraid to get in and undo all of his hard work. Most importantly, he took his time and didn’t rush the job.
