Car Cleaning Tips for Spring
Following these tips will help to ensure your vehicle is cleaned thoroughly and ready for spring!
Exterior Cleaning Tips
- Wash it thoroughly. Make sure you wash your vehicle well to help protect the paint and prevent rust. Wash underneath your car and in every nook and cranny like the wheel wells too.
- Wax it. Once you have cleaned your car really well, put car wax on it to protect it and help it maintain its shiny look.
- Check your tire pressure and wiper blades. Your tires go through a lot of stress as the temperatures fluctuate in the spring, so checking your pressure to make sure they are working at their optimal level is important. Similarly, your wiper blades are used more often in the winter, so make sure they are in good condition and wiped down before spring starts.
Interior Cleaning Tips
- Vacuum out the floor and seats. Get out all of the built-up dirt and debris out of your car. Make sure to clean underneath your floor mats as well!
- Wipe down the upholstery and surfaces. Take a damp cloth and wipe down your seats, and make sure to disinfect and clean all of the surfaces you touch. Winter tends to harbor germs, so wipe down your steering wheel, door handles, radio controls and cup holders to get out the germs.
- Take out the trash. Take out all of the trash that has accumulated in your vehicle over the winter months, including your trunk! Now is also a good time to update your emergency car kit.
