AUTUMN CAR MAINTENANCE: START WITH THE EXTERNALS
Cold, wet roads and road salt don’t just ruin paint – they seize up the moving bits and chew through metal – that’s why your autumn car maintenance needs to be thorough.
- Lube bonnet and boot catches – no more slamming them five times to get them to shut.
- Use on wiper arm pivots – keep them moving smoothly so you’re not caught out in a downpour.
- Free up sticky windows – GT85 in the runners helps keep them gliding, not grinding.
- Give your wing mirrors a wipe – stops water build up and keeps visibility clear.
- Quick spray on rims and trim – protects against grime and makes cleaning easier later.
