Cards. SORRY-ALL ELECTRONIC TOYS NOT INCLUDED ON THIS SALE, spurgeons Ideas on how to keep car clean and save Washing your car in the win­ ter can save you money by re­ ducing gasoline consumption, says the Automotive Informa­ tion Council. Ice and snow can build up un­ der fenders and undercarriage-- as well as (Ni the hood, roof and trunk lid--adding up to several hundred bounds of weight to the car. This added weight can have a'negative effect on gas mileage. A freshly washed car also seems to ran more smoothly and that may not be just your imagi­ nation. Slush, snOw and mud can get caked in the wheel wells, and a heavy build-up can affect steering and ride. The high-pressure spray at a car wash can remove the grime, leading to a smoother ride. In . addition, spraying under the car --especially under the fender-- can help to clean areas where rust can form. The do-it-yourselfer can do this with a garden hose on a warm day. Cars should be washed week during the winter. best do-it-yourself job, u mild dishwashing type soap. Laundry or dishwasher machine soaps may have a high alkaline content, which can damage a car's finish. Even the water you use can make a difference. Hard water should be avoided because it can lead to a spotty finish. Use a sponge, towel or soft brush. A hard brush used di­ rectly on the car's paint can scratch the finish For the same reason, wipe the car with a damp towel or chamois, not a dry towel. If, after inspecting the car, you should find a scratch or two, X. dab them with car wax to stop rust from forming. Better yet, fill the scratch with touch-up paint. Just touch the paint on and let it run and spread into the scratch for even coverage. Never paint over rust. Spots which have rusted should be rubbed out with steel wool be­ fore painting. Also, use only a very fine steel wool on rusted chrome. Coarse steel wool will mar the finish. Preserve your car's appear­ ance by finishing with a coat of wax. Your Car needs a wax job when water no longer "beads up" on the surface of the car. Buy a good paste or liquid and follow the directions on the label for the best possible finish. Keeping a car's appearance clean and sharp might net you several hundred dollars extra at resale time, says the Automo- tive Information Council.
