In the summer your vehicle predictably gets a good deal of extra activity. There are sights, sounds, and smells that can indicate when it's time for a vehicle detail. Noticing these signals early can help trigger the decision to take action. Sight plays a large role in making decisions on what needs to be cleaned and changed to avoid further issues. You begin to notice changes on the exterior and interior of your vehicle. Even in the interior-- as the scratch marks and general blemishes increase, they start to be unsightly, and you start to grow weary of them. It's time to take action and bring your vehicle in for a meticulous detail at Shines Autos Meticulously. Let us go after those troubles. Eliminating some of it will help the overall appearance and give your eyes a rest. If the interior odor has changed and the smell increases you may be ready for HELP!! Your vehicle may have fallen victim to an overwhelming amount of mystery bacterial rot and extra care in the area of auto detailing is the solution! The smell begins to grow and the mystery unravels as you realize this is the result of that food to-go, eaten hurriedly and unthinkingly in your vehicle some time ago which fell like snow into odd places which you cannot reach. The damage has been done, and it's very difficult to get into those cracks and crevices. We at Shines Autos Meticulously can help you!! Trouble is, as things begin to collect, you notice that to some extent your nose has gotten accustomed to the smell. That's a problem!! You could always use your sense of taste in this instance, but that is generally not recommended. Finally, it can also be a good idea to "get a sense" of the work ahead by looking carefully at the exterior of your vehicle. Do a look-over by running your hands across certain places less visible where trouble may be hard to spot. You will probably see and smell the obvious issues on the exterior, but why not walk around feeling for the less obvious.

With the arrival of delightful weather--warm, sunny, splendid-- it seems like it is time to go test drive a "new" vehicle. Anyway, this seems to be the time that the marketing division of the motor industry has determined that consumers are excited for a new vehicle. Summer shopping will often include the purchasing of a new vehicle, So, will you be a part of that excitement this summer season? July can begin that shopping adventure as it is traditionally, the time of year for newer vehicles to begin coming out, and to continue coming out over the next months. What are your best options? Some vehicles are becoming lighter, sleeker and even fairly affordable. So, what is the best option that will be least likely to hurt the wallet? 2017 is shaping up into an interesting vehicle year, as gas prices stay fairly low but with expectations of change continuing to rumble. With a fairly shaky market, it seems that there will not be as heavy a demand for SUVs, but instead greater demand for other crossover options within hybrid and electric cars. A greater interest in new technology combined with convenience continues to become a stronger pull. As options in technology continue to grow, there is a growing number of new models with these options, and, yes, a higher price tag for them. The first roll outs of the year are full of potential and often have numerous options in all areas of vehicle development. Some focus more on efficient use of space, while others focus on overall quality and engine power. Many buyers are looking forward further into 2017 with the introduction of the Tesla Model 3 as a more impressive option for an electric car. Why not explore those specific features you are are most excited about. Additionally, you might consider looking back a few years at a former model, as some models are going to mainly feature improvements from previous years. As you keep your price range in view, this option may be an excellent choice. Even if you are not necessarily in the market for a new vehicle at present, you might consider it worth the time to take a look at what the companies offer in these newest vehicle models. That information can come in handy later on when you need to make the best decision based on what is available.There is education to be gained as they roll out the next years models. Noticing new features and getting acquainted with potential for the future, it may be worth taking the time now to look at new motor trends--watching for updates online or a in a new vehicle magazine.

It is one of the busiest travel days of the year, and is extending itself even earlier into the week ahead of the official holiday, as throngs of people kick off the anticipated "summer vacation season." Memorial Day weekend is an opportunity to get out and get going. Those participating in this unofficial road rally are an estimated 34 million, according to AAA.com, with another four million going by air and other travel means during this extended weekend.

| It's MAY, and we're hoppin' at the shop! As the summer approaches, your "to do" list is probably increasing with planned and unplanned activity. And as the season progresses it may be time to pull back and plan for the cleaning of your vehicles. From prepping your summer recreational vehicle, to tidying up the everyday commuter, and getting it ready for some serious summer travel, there are a great number of tasks in auto detailing to accomplish. As you evaluate the status of each vehicle it may come as no surprise that the OUTSIDE of most vehicles wears down over the winter months and may need some extra care. This time of year "meticulous exterior detail" is a solution for those of us that are on the road in difficult places.
