What Do I Use to Clean My RC Car?

Most of the people who own an RC car know how difficult it can be to keep them clean. The dirt, dust and grime can accumulate quickly, and if left unattended, it can lead to a decrease in performance as well as a decrease in the overall look of your car.

So, it is essential to keep your RC car clean. But what do you use to clean it?

The Right Cleaning Products: The first thing you need to consider is what cleaning products would be most suitable for cleaning your RC car. Generally speaking, you should avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners on your RC car as they could damage the paint and plastic parts. Instead, opt for a mild soap and water solution or an automotive window cleaner as they are gentle yet effective.

Cleaning Tools: Apart from the right cleaning products, you will also need some tools to help you get the job done. A soft-bristled brush will help you scrub away stubborn dirt and grime from hard-to-reach areas.

A cloth or microfiber towel will come in handy for wiping off any excess water or soap residue from your car’s body and wheels. And a compressed air duster can help you clean out any dust or dirt from tight spots inside the engine compartment.

Polishing: After cleaning your RC car with soap and water solution or window cleaner, you may want to give it an extra sparkle by polishing its body with an automotive wax or polish. This will not only make it look great but also protect its paint job from corrosion.

Conclusion: To keep your RC car looking great and performing at its peak, regular cleaning is essential. Make sure that you choose the right type of cleaning products such as mild soaps or window cleaner as well as some necessary tools like soft-bristled brush and microfiber towel to get the job done effectively without damaging its delicate parts. Finally, polishing is also recommended to keep its body looking shiny and protected from corrosion.
