Winter driving can be a challenge, especially with the snow, ice, and road salt that can take a toll on your car. Fortunately, there are some simple steps you can take to protect your Volvo from the elements. Here are five ways you can keep your Volvo safe this winter season.
PFF (Paint Film Protection)
PFF is a protective film that is applied to the paint of your car, helping to protect it from scratches caused by road debris. In addition, PFF helps prevent damage to your car's paint due to harsh winter conditions such as freezing temperatures, road salt, and ice buildup.
Mudguards
Mudguards help prevent mud and grime from splashing onto your car's bodywork and tires during the wetter months of winter. This will help keep your Volvo looking cleaner for longer and also help protect it from rusting or corroding due to exposure to water or mud.
Wash Your Car Regularly
During winter months, it’s important to wash off any dirt or debris that may have accumulated on your vehicle after being out in the cold weather. This will not only keep it looking great but also help prevent rust and corrosion caused by dirt and salt accumulation over time.
Winter Mats & Cargo Protector
Using a set of winter mats in the interior of your Volvo will help protect its upholstery from dirt and wear and tear during colder months when you’re more likely to be bringing in outside elements like snow or mud into the cabin of your vehicle. Additionally, using a cargo protector in the trunk area can help shield items stored there from becoming wet or damaged due to changes in temperature and moisture levels during wintertime driving conditions.
Winter Tires
Keeping your tires properly inflated with quality tire pressure is essential for safety even in ideal driving conditions; however, this becomes even more important during winter weather when roads can become icy or slick with snow accumulation.
