Don’t forget to stop by Crain Hyundai of Little Rock for all your sales or service needs. 

It’s time to show off your Palisade! After hiding in the garage all winter long, give it a good wash to make it sparkle again. Clean those wheels, tires, windows, and mirrors for the perfect finishing touch. 

Exterior Wash

If your Hyundai is begging for a bath, remember to lather it up with a mild car detergent and pamper it with a soft sponge or microfiber cloth when drying. Don’t neglect the wheel wells, undercarriage, and behind the wheels; those spots can hide dirt and salt. 

Waxing & Polishing

Give your car that extra attention it deserves, and wax the exterior for added protection. A polish or paint sealant can work wonders to restore the paint’s luster. Your vehicle will thank you with a fresh, glossy look that turns heads on the road.

Wheels & Tires

Make some added time to devote some of your cleaning to your wheels and tires. Grab a dedicated wheel cleaner to tackle that brake dust and grime, and don’t forget to apply some tire spray to make your tires look brand new. Remember to check your tire pressure and add air as needed for optimal performance. Your car will thank you later!

Windows & Mirrors

Tired of trying to see through all those streaks on your windshield? Get your hands on some glass cleaner, and show those windows and mirrors who’s boss. Oh, and the secret weapon? A microfiber cloth for a streak-free finish. 

Calling all Santa Cruz owners! Your winter companion has been working hard with hauling, camping, and more. Now, it’s time to give it some post-winter love. Vacuum, wash those mats, and don’t neglect the truck bed. A fluid check under the hood is the cherry on top.

Vacuum & Wash the Floor Mats

You’ll wanna start by taking out your front and back floor mats. Now it’s time to do a thorough vacuuming of the carpets and upholstery. Don’t neglect the nooks and crannies under the seats. Now, give those mats a good washing using an approved cleaner.

Clean out the Truck Bed

Get your truck bed ready for a deep clean by clearing out any tools or equipment. Take it a step further with a complete spray-down to get rid of any dirt and debris. After a good scrubbing, give it a final rinse and then let it air-dry in the sunshine.

Under the Hood

Don’t forget about the engine bay. Clear away debris and wipe it down with a damp cloth. Take a closer look at hoses and belts for any wear and tear. Keep up with these easy DIY checks, and your Hyundai will always be road-ready.

Check Your Fluids

Start by refilling the windshield wiper fluid. Take a peek under the hood to check, top off, or change the motor oil, brake, and transmission fluids. And yes, those wiper blades probably do need to be changed.
