If I learned (or relearned) one thing during my SUV detailing clinic at Meguiar's, it was this: "Frequent car is easy care." The final step of detailing is also the first step of detailing, and that is maintenance.
You might think you don’t have the head space for a car-maintenance checklist but proper car upkeep takes more than keeping gas in the tank and changing the engine oil regularly, so neglect is neither an option nor an excuse.
