Having a tradie roof rack is a convenient way to transport large items like bicycles, kayaks, or luggage. However, it’s essential to take care of your roof racks to ensure longevity and functionality. Below are some tips to help you maintain your roof racks.
1. Keep it clean
Regularly cleaning your tradie roof rack will prevent dirt, debris and salt build-up. To clean your roof racks, use a mild soap and water solution and a soft brush or cloth.
2. Inspect it often
Check your roof racks for any signs of damage or wear and tear. Tighten any loose bolts or screws and replace any damaged parts.
3. Avoid overloading your roof racks
Make sure you know the weight limit of your roof racks and never exceed it. Overloading your tradie roof rack can cause damage to your car’s roof or the rack itself.
4. Remove your roof rack when not in use
If you’re not using your roof racks, consider removing it from your car. This will prevent damage to your rack caused by weather or debris on the road.
5. Store properly
When not in use, store your roof racks in a dry and cool place, away from direct sunlight. This will help prevent any damage to the rack caused by exposure to the elements.
By following these tips, you can help extend the life of your roof racks and ensure its safe and efficient use for years to come.
