Our team can’t wait to get your ride sparkling like new!

Destination Kia’s Vehicle Paint Pointers: 

Use a clay bar to rid your vehicle’s exterior of debris. 

  • Clay bars help extract tree sap, dirt and gravel, and other road debris from your vehicle’s clear coat! 

Polish out small surface scratches. 

  • Everyday mark ups on your ride can be buffed out with a quality polish and soft fiber cloth. 

Protect your polish job with wax. 

  • The best protection for your vehicle is built up in layers, so be sure to protect your newly finished polish with a coat of wax. 

Regularly wash your vehicle.

  • Of course none of that really works unless you wash your vehicle regularly. Especially in the fall and winter months when the roads are salted to help guard against ice!
