5 products you need to keep your car looking (and running!) great

By

Whether it’s your daily driver that gets you to and from the office or the SUV that totes around all the kids, a car is a big investment — and one that you want to retain value. However, keeping your car looking and running great isn’t always at the top of your chores list. When there are so many other things you need to get in done in a day, car maintenance — even the most basic stuff — doesn’t always take priority. Thankfully, there are some convenient tools and gear that you can use, incredibly easily, to help your car stay in tip-top shape. 

Car Trunk Organizer/Net w/Straps
You may think that you can simply toss all your stuff into the back of your trunk and move on with your life, leaving your car no worse for wear, but think about it. Those work bags, loose groceries, cleaning supplies, sports gear, the kids’ stuff — do you really want all that rolling around and damaging and dinging your car’s interior, even in the trunk? Of course not. Keep it all tidy and contained, with a trunk net.

Car Vacuum Accessories
If you care at all about keeping your car looking like it did the day you rolled off the lot, you’ll want to keep things clean, and not just the exterior. Vacuum up all those forgotten french fries and straw wrappers with a car vacuum and then keep the car vacuum tucked neatly in the back of your vehicle, for easy use whenever. This carrier case makes it simple.

Car Roof Protective Mat
If you frequently haul items atop your car, whether it’s a kayak, skis or just a luggage bin, you’ve likely heard that cringe-inducing noise of a scratch that can happen any time you slide an item onto or across your car’s roof. Keep those scratches to a minimum (or get rid of them entirely) with a non-slip protective mat that acts as a barrier.

Digital Tire Pressure Gauge 200 PSI
Keeping your car looking great is one thing, but keeping your car running great is another. If you’re not handy with vehicles, you may not know the first thing about regular maintenance. But one of the easiest things you can do? Keep your tires in working order, by always ensuring they’re filled with the correct amount of air. This pressure gauge will help.

Travel with your favorite furry friend all that often? Then you may have already suffered a few scratches on your car’s upholstery. Make those scratches a thing of the past with a sturdy seat cover that’s both comfortable for your pet and protective for your back seat. It even covers the doors and features a window so Fido can keep an eye on you while you’re driving.

Sure, you may not be a “car person,” but that doesn’t mean you want to let your automotive investment lose value. With just a few easy precautions — like keeping a tire pressure gauge handy to monitor your tire pressure as needed, or using a seat cover every time you travel with a pet — you can conveniently prevent damage that can really reduce the value of your car.
