Safety is not the only thing that characterizes car windows, and in addition to protecting the driver and co-driver in the event of an accident, they also prevent objects and other elements from entering the interior of the vehicle.
High temperatures cause car windows to deteriorate, making it so that a small impact can lead to a window break, turning what could have been a car window repair into a window replacement. For this reason, throughout this article we tell you everything you need to do to take care of your car windows during these months of intense heat.
Aspects to take into account to take care of car windows
At this time of year, the build-up of insect impacts, dust in suspension and other external factors is very common on both the front and rear windows. But, what to do when some of these inconveniences arise?
As for insects, it is recommended to use the windscreen wipers regularly to prevent the remains from drying out and reducing our visibility while driving. But, if this measure is not enough, you can always go to a service station and do a cleaning with water and soap.
For dirt caused by dust and sand, it is recommended to have in the vehicle some item to be able to clean the windows, as well as a container of water or another element that allows you to leave your glass like new. The fact is, if there is no visibility, you should do the cleaning immediately and then carry out a deeper cleaning. This point is very important, since if we choose to clean the windows with the windscreen wiper when they are this dirty, we could end up scratching them.
Another factor that causes our car’s window to deteriorate is heat, and heat is crucial at this time of year. If we park the car in the sun, it will have to withstand high temperatures, which entails excessive heating of the vehicle and therefore wear on the windscreen. A simple way to avoid this is to place a cover on the front window.
In addition, you should try to park the vehicle in the shade, although we know that normally this is mission impossible, we recommend that if you have the opportunity, do not hesitate, as this is a good way to avoid heat inside the vehicle.
Thus, to always have your car ready and avoid damage to the windows, we recommend you do cleaning following these guidelines, as this factor will be key to maintaining car windows.
