As the year 2020 winds down and keeps hitting us with one thing after another, many of us have been affected by the wildfires, through the smoke and the damage. It has made many families evacuate their homes and has destroyed and taken away people’s homes and memories. Our hearts go out to those who have been directly affected by these fires. We also want to take a moment to thank all the Firefighters and EMT's and everyone who has been helping to fight these wildfires.
With, everyone’s car going through the smoke, and in some cases our cars have collected ash and soot. You do not want to take your car to the car wash right away after the smoke leaves. This can damage your car, you will want to do the following BEFORE taking it to the car wash.
