We sometimes forget, but one of the basic ecological principles is to keep your belongings as long as possible. Indeed, replacing items, like a car, requires spending new energy—and money!—on production. This goes against the principle of sustainability, a fundamental value at Bardahl. That's why you've come to the right place to discover all the tips that will help you extend the life of your car.
How do I preserve my car's bodywork?
If you really want to respect your vehicle and make it last, give it a good makeover as often as possible. We don't recommend automatic car washes, which too often cause micro-scratches on the bodywork. Nothing beats a high-pressure gun wash (with caution), some elbow grease, a microfiber cloth, and good cleaning products.

In the event of significant damage to the bodywork, make sure to repair it quickly to avoid unpleasant surprises (rust, etc.).
How can I preserve the interior of my car?
Remember that you spend many hours a week, or even months, in the passenger compartment of your car. Over time, without proper maintenance, viruses and other bacteria can build up inside. Freshening up your car only takes a few minutes. Again, whether it's inside or out, microfiber and quality products will be your best friends.
