How should I clean a car that has matt paint?
It’s important matt cars are washed more often and very gently to avoid imparting scratches as well as taking your time with the paintwork. We’d advise the two bucket method of shampoo and clean water.

If your car paintwork is hot, valeting products like shampoos and wax polishes have a tendency to dry quickly. If the products are not rinsed or buffed off before drying, they can leave white marks and streaks that can take a lot of effort to remove. They should ideally be used on cool surfaces, so avoid washing and waxing in hot sunshine. Try parking in the shade to allow the car to cool first.
You can shampoo your car as often as you need to, and this will vary depending on how often you drive and if you drive on muddy roads, for example. Applying wax between washes will help to protect your car’s exterior from harmful dirt and environmental damage, and keep it looking shiny for longer.
