Preparing for Summer Road Trips

As we all continue taking road trips to the beach and favorite vacation spots, it's important to remember that keeping your vehicle properly maintained will help avoid problems down the road (no pun intended).

Capitol Shine offers many services to help prepare your vehicle and make it road-trip-ready, but there are many simple items you can do yourself. Here's a simple checklist to get started:
  • Replace the windshield wipers - nothing beats a clear view of the road during rain
  • Get an oil change - improves gas mileage and keeps your engine running smoother.
  • Add some washer fluid - helps in removing bugs, sand and salt water that could gather on your windshield.
  • Check the tire pressure - warmer weather will make them expand 

What about the exterior? Luckily, we've got that covered. Capitol Shine offers a variety of services to help you start out with a clean ride:

  • Hand Wash & Dry
  • Vacuuming
  • Interior Shampoo 
  • Waxing & Buffing
  • Engine Clean & Polish

A proper waxing will help protect your vehicle's paint from sand and other items that may come into contact with it while driving. However, if you are looking for paint protection beyond wax, we offer options for that as well. A ceramic coating helps protect against scratches, oxidation, UV rays, graffiti and more. These coatings also help bring out an EXTREMELY glossy shine that needs to be seen to be believed. In addition, some ceramic coatings come with a lifetime warranty, so there will never be another need to worry. Want more information? Visit the Ceramic Pro or Opti-Coat pages on our website (just click on either choice).
