Boost your Car Cover Life with Simple Tips!



Ever wonder why your leather seats won’t last as long and fade out or lose their charm. Well my dear friend that is because you lack the Chemical guys – Leather Serum – Natural Look Conditioner and Protective Coating. This serum is designed to protect the leather and resist dirt and debris and any type of body oil on the leather. It also protects with a matte shine so if you are looking to protect your leather and give no shine than this is what you want to use on your car leather. 


What damages Leather?
Apart from body oils, sweat and scratches there is one other factor that we neglect when it comes to leather protection. We have extreme summers in Pakistan and the Sun’s UV rays don’t discriminate between humans or cars! They not only damage car paint but also the leather inside your cars. You need to take care of that by Chemical Guys – Leather Serum – Natural Look Conditioner .You can use the serum by itself or with the Chemical Guys Leather Conditioner too.  It depends on how much you can spend on and love your car.


What makes the Chemical Guys – Leather Serum – Natural Look Conditioner the best out there?
The Leather Protectant Serum is going to actually protect the leather and make sure that it doesn’t crack and it doesn’t fade. One of the leading causes of leather failure is cracking and that’s because UV solar light and heat beats on the leather and it starts to crack and degrade the actual skin. The Chemical Guys – Leather Serum – Natural Look Conditioner is going to sink down and protect the leather and resist any type of damage. 

An added perk is, it smells just like brand new leather. So if you are looking to restore that fresh leather smell back to your vehicle and even if you are using it on an older vehicle or a newer vehicle, it’s going to give that fresh leather scent that a lot of people like. It works on any type of leather like natural leather, coded leather or uncoated leather and even works on pleated and vinyl leather. 

Another great thing about Chemical Guys – Leather Serum – Natural Look Conditioner is that it doesn’t give any type of slippery feel. So let’s suppose you have a steering wheel that’s leather, you don’t want any type of slippery feel on the wheel. You want to have a good grip and a good control of your car. The leather protectant serum is actually going to resist any type of slippage on the steering wheel and keep you safe when you are driving. It is also going to resist any type of oil on your hands and protect the leather underneath. 

So when it comes to leather, there is no better Leather Protecting Serum than Chemical Guys – Leather Serum – Natural Look Conditioner.

Car Safety: Is Your Car Safe for Your Child?

In Pakistan, we merely pay attention to child safety before moving out. In many accidents, when children get hurt rescue workers ask their parents why they allow their child to sit on the front wheel and parents end up giving lame explanation that they would not listen to us. That is one scenario. In other cases, parents do not bother to buckle up their child before starting their car.

Using Car LATCH for Children!

LATCH that stands for “Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children” vehicles hardware should be installed to cope this problem. The worst part, this latch frustrates parents because it really do not helps with all the cars. Before we classify which cars are safe to drive with kids, we need to understand what safety measures qualifies any car as “Safe” for children?

According to Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, Vehicle LATCH hardware is rated good if it meets the following criteria:

  1. The lower anchors are no more than 3/4 inch deep in the seat bight.
  2. The lower anchors are easy to maneuver around. This is defined as having a clearance angle greater than 54 degrees.
  3. The force required to attach a standardized tool to the lower anchors in less than 40 pounds. (The tool represents a lower connector of a child seat, through the actual force required when installing a seat varies depending on the specific connector).
  4. Tether anchors are on the vehicle’s rear deck or on the top 85 percent of the seatback. They shouldn’t be at the very bottom of the seatback, under the seat, on the ceiling or on the floor.
  5. The area where the tether anchor is found doesn’t have any other hardware that could be confused for the tether anchor. If other hardware is present, then the tether anchor must have a clear label located within 3 inches of it.

Which cars are best for child’s safety?

A lot of cars have undergone tests for children safety and only a few cars are considered best for children, these are:
  1.               BMW Series 5
  2.             Mercedes Benz GL
  3.             Volkswagen Passat

Engine Oil Change
your car. You can get to know about the appropriate viscosity of oil through your manuals guide-like 5W-30, for example-your car requires, the viscosity of the oil can be measured on the oil reservoir cap on the engine. Viscosity is the measure of how much resistance a fluid has to flowing. Many people refer to it as the “thickness” of a fluid. For example the viscosity of honey is greater as compared to water.

How Frequently Should I Change my Car’s Engine Oil?
It is suggested to change oil after reaching a certain time limit or distance. The most known interval for oil change is three thousand miles or three months but you need to know what’s more important-the distance or the time?
According to expert’s opinions, we should trust the odometer and not the calendar. Driving has a great influence on your engine oil; if a car is at rest, there is less need to change the engine oil. The intervals of the oil change are decreasing with time. Fifty years back, people had to change engine oil every five hundred miles.
Nowadays, the drain intervals for some oil miniature even the three thousand mile standard, with good performance oils suggest changes at fifteen thousand up to thirty five thousand miles.

Changing of oil depends upon how frequently you drive and where you drive. Certain aspects include excessive heat, pulling along a trailer and driving in dusty and sandy locations.
What are the consequences of not changing oil?
The major problem that you will face is that the cooler parts of the engine will also get affected like
the crankcase and the areas around the valves and the camshafts. This will result in carbon deposits, or sludge, coming out of the old oil. This can include a costly engine cleaning service or it will urge you to change worn-out poisoning.
The situation can get even worse. The camshafts can be dented and the pistons could eventually seize. Paying for any of these repairs would be much costly as compared to the oil change. Change your car’s engine oil regularly for maintaining your car and consider it as a cheap insurance for your engine. Book an Appointment Now!
