Your car’s new care routine
According to Turtle Wax, you are how you car, so go put your best foot – or rather tyre – forward with its 5-step glow-up routine
From that fresh haircut feeling to slipping on a newly ironed shirt, it’s the little things you do to take care of yourself that make you feel unstoppable – and the same goes for your car.
You probably drink plenty of water, moisturise and maybe even exfoliate if you’re feeling fancy, so why shouldn’t your car get the same TLC? Turtle Wax knows you see your car as a reflection of you, so it's here to help you give it the treatment it deserves with an easy care ritual designed to keep your motor looking as fresh as you.
After all, you wouldn’t leave the house without brushing your teeth, and your car shouldn’t hit the road without a little spruce up either. So, let’s get started...
Step 1: A deep cleanse

Just like a great facial cleanser, your car needs a wash that strips grime, grease and surface build-up, and Turtle Wax’s Max Power Car Wash does just that.
This multi-purpose soap offers three levels of cleansing power – from mild to max – so you can tackle everything from light stains to sticky tar, tree sap and old wax. Simply dilute it for a gentler wash that won’t strip your car’s existing wax or use a more concentrated mix to degrease surfaces for a proper detox.
Its super-foamy formula also creates a thick, fluffy barrier that helps prevent swirl marks and scratches on your car’s surface, so you can deep clean without compromising that all-important shine.
Step 2: Get rid of the gunk

You’d want to pick out spinach stuck in your teeth as soon as you realised it was there, so you should apply the same logic to your car’s grille when it’s covered with dead bugs and other equally delightful debris. The glovebox equivalent of dental floss, Turtle Wax’s Tar & Glue Remover is quick, reliable and always there when your car’s face needs freshening up in a hurry.
Great for on-the-go clean-ups, this spray breaks down everything from insect remnants to sticky tar, tree sap and whatever mystery mess you’ve driven through lately. Plus, it’s safe to use on all modern clear coat paintwork, glass and alloy wheels, so your car can stay spotless from every angle.
Step 3: The salon treatment

Your car’s ‘hair’ deserves a proper shampoo, too. Well, carpets and mats are basically the flowing locks of your vehicle, aren’t they?! And Turtle Wax’s Power Out! Carpet & Mats Heavy Duty Cleaner is here to help you give them a much-deserved clean.
Formulated with Odor-X® technology, this best-selling spray tackles greasy stains, soil build-up and eliminates unpleasant smells, such as food, coffee and pets, for up to 30 days. All you need to do is spray, scrub and enjoy that fresh-from-the-salon feeling.
Step 4: Add your SPF

Skipping suncream in your skincare routine is a rookie move – and your car needs some sun protection, too. Turtle Wax’s Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wax Spray Coating is essentially SPF for your paintwork and works by sealing your car’s finish with a radiant shine, water-beading hydrophobicity and long-lasting ceramic protection.
With an easy spray-on and wipe-off application, it’s the perfect way to protect a recent wash or newly polished finish on paint, metal, plastic or glass.
Step 5: Seal the deal

Similar to a great setting spray, the Wax & Dry Car Spray Wax is the perfect last step to lock in your car’s makeover. Spray it onto your wet car after washing, and it’ll speed up the dry time, leaving behind a layer of smooth, glossy protection on the exterior.
By combining waxing and drying in one step, it not only saves time and reduces the hassle of doing both separately, but it also helps you achieve a flawless finish and save money on long-term upkeep.
