Homemade Car Wash Soaps

Non-Toxic Car Wash Soap
You can easily make non-toxic car wash soap at home. Not only is it safe and environment friendly, but it also cleans your car very effectively. Just take a bucket full of lukewarm water and add a capful of your regular dishwashing soap into it. Now, add 2 tablespoons of moisturizing cocoa butter bath soap to the mix. While the dishwashing soap will clean the car, the cocoa butter will help to give your car a smooth finish. If your kids love to play with soap and water, you can involve them in your car washing as well! Get their swimsuits and let them play while your car is washed.

Eco-Friendly Car Wash Soap
Pour one tablespoon of  vegetable oil-based liquid soap into half a bucket of lukewarm water. Take a soft cloth and clean the car with this soap water. You can use extra soap for extremely soiled areas. Once you are done with the washing, use a soft and clean cotton cloth to dry your car immediately. In this way you can avoid spotting. Using this eco friendly car wash soap will also provide your car with an extra shine.

Car Wash Soap For Stubborn Stains
If your car needs a proper cleaning to get rid of stains, then borax can do the trick as this mineral compound is known to be a good car cleaner. Mix half a cup of borax in lukewarm water. To this mix, add 1½ tablespoon of any vegetable oil based soap. Soak a sponge in the solution and rub your car with it to make it shine. The borax will help remove all the stubborn grease stains, dirt and grime, while the vegetable oil based soap will make your car super shiny. Once you are done with the cleaning, use your garden hose to ensure you have rinsed the car well to remove all the dirt and soap. Finally, don’t forget to dry clean your car with a wipe and soft cotton cloth.

• Always use a mild cleansing agent as harsh soaps can damage the finish of your car.
• Car wash soaps that offer rich lather might not be good always as they are loaded with harmful chemicals.
• Vegetable oil based car washes are natural cleaners and help clean dirt gently without damaging your car in any way.
• Always look for a pH balanced car wash soap that won’t cause damage to your car.
