Achieving a Sparkling Clean Car Interior
Once you’ve purchased a steam cleaner, it’s time to start your car interior cleaning job. Be sure to check the instructions that come with your cleaner, and follow any use and safety tips from the manufacturer. Here are 4 steam car cleaning tips from a steam car wash service provider to achieve a sparkling clean car interior.
Remove trash, mats, and accessories
Before you start cleaning, it’s important to pick up any loose items to get them out of your way. Throw out any trash and remove or put away everything else, such as your snow brush, emergency kit, or child car seats. If your car has removable mats on the floor or in the trunk, remove them and set them aside.
Vacuum the upholstery and carpet
Use a standard vacuum with a handheld attachment or a compact handheld vacuum to clean up any dirt, pet hair, or leaves that may have made their way into your car. Don’t forget to get underneath the seats (moving them forward and backward can help) and in the trunk or hatch. If you removed cloth mats in Step 1, vacuum those too.
Prepare your car steam cleaner
Fill your steam cleaner with water according to the manufacturer’s instructions and give it time to heat up. Most models have a fairly short power cord, so you may need an extension cord to reach all the surfaces in your vehicle. Make sure the cord is rated for outdoors and suitable for the steam cleaner.
Steam clean the upholstery and carpet
Attach the standard cleaning brush to the steam cleaner. Press the trigger to release steam as you move the cleaning attachment over the cloth upholstery. Start in an inconspicuous area to test out the results. Be thorough, but work quickly enough that the upholstery does not get wet.
