Interior Summer Cleaning Tips for Used Vehicles
When you buy a used vehicle from our team at Leamington GM, we make sure the vehicle is clean and ready to go, no matter when you choose to buy it. However, it never hurts to give the interior a good clean before the summer hits so it’s all ready for you to enjoy and complete with any personal touches you like. Most importantly, take the time to neutralize hidden odours, clean up any salt from past winters, and tackle trapped dirt by clearing and removing everything from the inside (including the mats), giving the interior a good vacuuming, and both cleaning and providing UV protection to interior surfaces so it’s all ready for a great summer. Read on with our team at Leamington GM to learn how to do just that, and when you’re ready to buy a used vehicle from us, drop by and see us in Leamington!
Deep Vacuuming
Once the mats have been taken care of and anything hidden in the seat crevices has been removed, it’s time to give the interior a deep, thorough vacuuming. Start from one end (front or back, your choice!) to make sure you get everything, including the door pockets and other storage spaces you cleared out previously. Slide the seats all the way front and back as well to vacuum the tracks and areas underneath the seats. Use a crevice tool if you have it for cup holders and air vents as well. If you have fabric seats and an upholstery attachment for your vacuum as well, use that to also get any deeply embedded dirt out.
