We all know that air pollution can damage our lungs. Did you ever notice pictures of people in China are usually wearing a face mask to keep the particles out of their noses?

This past week the air quality in all of Southern California has been poor. The sun is filtered through smoke from the fires. Even in the San Fernando Valley we see the smoke, though the fire hasn’t touched us here.

Now there is a report out that fire ash can damage your car’s paint. If not washed off thoroughly it will erode the paint.

So, car wash operators will love the additional busines from these fires–wash and wax your car.
