Why you should protect your car in winter, inside and outdoor

Why protect your car in winter, inside and out?

Winter is a trying season for cars, whether they are parked inside a garage, covered parking lot or outside.

If mechanical maintenance is a priority, oil changes and replacement of wear parts, the exterior appearance of the car is just as essential and sometimes neglected.

However, a well-maintained body contributes to the longevity of the vehicle, and also to its long-term value.

The effects of winter on a car parked in a garage

Even when sheltered from the elements, a car parked indoors is not completely protected:

• Dust build-up : Fine particles settle on the bodywork and, if not cleaned regularly, can scratch the paint when you wipe it away.
• Condensation and humidity : If your garage is not perfectly ventilated, humidity can build up, promoting the appearance of stains on the bodywork and even corrosion.
• Risk of scratches or light impacts : The garage is often a multifunctional space. Tools, bicycles or other objects can accidentally hit the car and damage the bodywork.

The effects of winter on a car parked outside

The exterior exposes your vehicle to more dangers:

• Weather : Frost, snow and acid rain will dull the varnish and accelerate the aging of the paint.
• Salt and sand blasting : Essential for keeping roads safe, but corrosive to bodywork and seals.
• Environmental risks : Branches, bird droppings, tree resin, leaves... all elements that will damage unprotected vehicles.

Why a protective cover is essential

Even with a PPF (Paint Protection Film) protective film, your car is not completely safe from micro-scratches or impacts. My Roadster® offers a range of quality protective covers , designed to protect your car:
