Preparation of Tools and Products

Before starting the cleaning process, it’s important to prepare all the necessary tools and products.
Some essential tools and products include:
• A vacuum cleaner with attachments for detailed cleaning
• Microfiber cloths for different surfaces
• Brushes of various sizes for cleaning air vents, seams, and other narrow areas
• Cleaners for fabric, leather, and plastic, tailored to the specific materials in your car

By choosing quality products, you ensure that the interior materials of the car remain undamaged and long-lasting.

Thorough Vacuuming - The First Step to Cleanliness

Vacuuming the car interior is the foundation of every successful cleaning. Start with the floor mats, which should be removed from the car and thoroughly vacuumed. Pay special attention to the edges and corners of the mats, where dirt tends to accumulate the most.

After the mats, vacuum the entire interior of the car, including seats, floors, the trunk, and cargo area. Don’t forget hard-to-reach places like under the seats, between the backrest and bottom cushion, and in the door corners. Using vacuum attachments will help you reach narrow areas and clean dust from the air vents, where dust often gathers and can negatively impact air quality inside the vehicle. Vacuuming is a key step that removes most surface dirt and makes further cleaning easier.

Cleaning Upholstered Surfaces

The fabric and carpets in the car are often prone to stains from spilled drinks, food, and other substances.

For thorough cleaning:
• Vacuum the surface to remove dust and larger particles.
• Use a fabric or carpet cleaner specifically made for car interiors. Apply the cleaner to the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, and then scrub with a cloth or brush.
• Use a soft brush or cloth to gently work in the cleaner.
• Wipe with a clean microfiber cloth and allow it to dry.

Cleaning Plastic and Rubber Parts

Plastic and rubber parts of the interior require special care. Use specialized plastic cleaners that won't leave greasy residue.

Cleaning process:
• Apply the cleaner to a microfiber cloth.
• Gently wipe all plastic parts, including the dashboard and doors.
• Finally, polish the surface to achieve a matte or glossy finish, depending on your preference.

Cleaning Glass Surfaces

Glass surfaces are often exposed to grease, fingerprints, and dust. Clean windows are essential for safe driving and significantly contribute to the overall aesthetics of the interior. To achieve streak-free, crystal-clear windows, use specialized glass cleaners that don’t leave residue. Wipe the glass with a lint-free microfiber cloth. Don’t forget to clean the inside of the windshield as well.

For the best results, clean the glass during a cooler part of the day or in the shade to prevent the cleaning solution from evaporating too quickly and leaving streaks.

Cleaning Air Vents

Air vents are often overlooked, but accumulated dust can cause unpleasant odors and reduce the functionality of the air conditioning. To clean the air vents, use a small brush or a microfiber cloth stick to thoroughly clean tight spaces, and use disinfectant to remove bacteria and mold that can develop inside the vents.

Regular cleaning of the ventilation system ensures fresh and healthy air inside your car.

Common Mistakes When Cleaning the Car Interior

Using inappropriate products: Avoid using harsh chemicals that can damage materials.

Over-wetting the upholstery: Too much moisture can cause mold and unpleasant odors.

Improper window wiping: Always use quality microfiber cloths to avoid streaks on the glass.
