Lasting Lustre
Torque Singapore|November 2017

Maintaining your car’s shine doesn’t always require multiple grooming sessions.

FASTIDIOUS petrol heads will do anything and everything to ensure that their car remains in tip-top shape.

Timely workshop visits, weekly tyre pressure checks (even if they have tyre pressure monitors installed) and high-octane fuel (because they don’t want to risk the engine knocking and pinging) are just the tip of the iceberg.

But if there’s one thing that these enthusiasts will really spend time on, it’s maintaining their car’s looks.

Keeping your car shiny in Singapore isn’t easy. If the weather isn’t scorching hot, it’s raining heavily. Worse, there are days when all we get is a bit of rain before the sun comes back out, stronger than ever.
