Best Car Care Tips for Wet and Humid Weather

Wet and humid weather doesn’t just make driving less enjoyable — it can also damage your vehicle if you don’t take proper care. Excess moisture, constant rain, and high humidity create the perfect conditions for rust, mould, electrical issues, and worn components.

At Precision Pro Protect, we’ve seen firsthand how Georgia’s unpredictable climate can affect vehicles. The good news? With the right maintenance, you can keep your car running smoothly and looking its best all season long.

Here are our best professional tips for protecting your car in wet and humid weather.

1. Protect Your Paintwork from Moisture & Rust

Moisture buildup leads to rust, especially around wheel arches, undercarriage, and door edges.

• Tip: Wash your car regularly to remove road grime and salt, then apply wax or ceramic coating for a water-repelling shield.💡 Our detailing and paint protection services add a durable layer of defense against rust and UV damage.

• 
  

2. Check Your Tyres for Wet Grip

Slippery roads require tyres with solid tread depth and proper pressure. Worn tyres can be dangerous in heavy rain.

• Tip: Make sure your tyres have at least 3mm of tread depth and maintain correct pressure. Rotate them regularly for even wear.💡 We offer tyre rotation and wheel alignment in our servicing packages.

  
  

3. Keep Your Brakes in Top Condition

Moisture can cause brake pads and rotors to wear faster, reducing stopping power.

• Tip: Have your brakes inspected regularly, especially after driving in constant rain or flooded roads.💡 Our mechanical services include complete brake checks and replacements.

  
  

4. Protect the Interior from Humidity

Wet clothes, umbrellas, and condensation can lead to mould, mildew, and bad smells inside your car.

• Tip: Use moisture-absorbing products, clean carpets frequently, and get professional interior detailing.💡 Our interior detailing services deep-clean and sanitise your car to prevent mould buildup.

  
  

5. Check Your Windshield Wipers & Defogger

Rain reduces visibility, and humidity fogs up your windows fast.

• Tip: Replace worn wiper blades, top up your washer fluid, and ensure your defogger system is working.

  
  

6. Inspect Your Electrical System

Excess moisture can affect your car’s wiring, battery, and lights.

• Tip: Have your battery tested and electrical connections checked for corrosion.💡 We provide full electrical diagnostics during logbook servicing.

  
  

7. Don’t Forget Underbody Protection

Your car’s undercarriage takes the biggest hit from wet conditions, collecting mud, salt, and water that speed up rust.

• Tip: Get regular underbody washes and consider protective coatings.💡 Ask us about our underbody treatment as part of detailing packages.
