The sun is friend and foe, all in one big bundle of gases!

It gives us warm, sunny days that make us want to get outside and enjoy nature. It can also give you a painful sunburn you’re not soon going to forget. No question about it, sunscreen is important in your efforts to protect your skin from the damaging effects of the sun.

And while it’s debatable whether National Sunscreen Day is May 24 or May 27, it’s certainly celebrated this time of year for a reason.  Memorial Day weekend kicks the summer months when the sun beats down with blazing brutality, damaging everything that it touches, and your car and boat can be prime targets, too.

So, what kind of “sunscreen” can you use to protect your vehicle or boat from damage?   Here’s what we’d recommend at Creative Colors International to keep those valuable investments looking like new.

Full Exposure! Keep Your Vehicle Smoking

You want to keep your car looking “hot,” but the sun can wreak havoc on the interior. Some interesting findings from the State Farm Vehicle Research Facility:

• Interior air temperatures have been recorded well in excess of 145°F.
• Interior surfaces exposed to direct sunlight had recorded temperatures in excess of 195°F.

That’s enough power to crack and fade your dashboard, consoles, seats, or even your flooring. Just like it ages your skin, the sun is aging your vehicle’s interior well before its time turning your new car to old in just a matter of years.

But whatever damage the sun (and your kids for that matter!) can do to your car, you don’t need to worry because We Can Fix That!

By its very nature, your boat is going to get the worst of it! Every time you use it, you know your family is in for a fun time while your boat is in for a rough ride. You can simply slather yourself and your family with sunscreen, but what’s going to protect your boat?
