How to Spring Clean Your Vehicle

Gather the Right Tools and Materials

Before you begin cleaning, gathering the right tools and materials is essential. Here is a list of what you'll need:
  • Buckets with water.
  • Sponges.
  • Microfiber towels.
  • Automotive cleaning products (car wash soap, window cleaner, and tire cleaner).
  • A pressure washer or hose.
  • A vacuum cleaner.

Start with the Exterior

Begin by washing your vehicle's exterior from top to bottom. Use microfiber sponges and car wash soap to loosen up all the dirt, grease, and old wax from the paint. Rinse carefully with a hose and dry with a microfiber towel to avoid water streaks. Then, apply a coat of wax to protect the paint and give it a shine. Apply the wax in circular motions, covering the entire car surface. Wait for the wax to dry before buffing it off with a clean microfiber towel. Remember to wash microfiber towels in the buckets as they become soiled.

Clean the Wheels and Tires

After washing the car's paint, move on to the wheels and tires. Use a tire cleaner and a stiff-bristled brush to scrub the entire tire surface, including the sidewalls. Once the tires are clean, move to the wheels. To remove dirt and brake dust, use a wheel cleaner and a nylon-bristled brush and scrub the entire wheel surface, including the inside of the spokes and the rim.

Optimize your engine's performance with top-quality products such as AMSOIL's Signature Series 0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil. To order this and other advanced formulas, call Sinwal Enterprises Inc in Mississauga at 416-520-5527 or 866-326-7645 or stop by AMSOIL's online store anytime.

Clean the Windows and Mirrors

Next, use a window cleaner and a microfiber towel to clean the inside and outside of the windows and mirrors. Make sure to wipe in one direction to avoid streaks. If you notice stubborn spots or stains, gently scrub the area with a glass cleaner and a soft-bristled brush. Once the glass is clean, use a dry microfiber towel to buff the surface to shine.

Vacuum the Interior

Now that the exterior is clean, it's time to move on to the interior. Start by vacuuming the carpets, seats, and floor mats. Use a crevice tool to clean hard-to-reach areas, such as between the seats and under the pedals. Also, use a stain remover designed for car interiors if there are any stains on the carpet or upholstery.

Clean the Dashboard and Console

Next, clean the dashboard and console. Use a microfiber towel and an all-purpose cleaner to wipe down the surfaces. Make sure to get into all the crevices and vents. If you find sticky stains, use a solution designed for automotive interiors to remove them.

Detail the Interior

After cleaning the dashboard and console, it's time to detail the interior. To that end, use a vinyl protectant to shine and protect the dashboard and other vinyl surfaces. Clean the door panels and seats with an upholstery cleaner and a soft-bristled brush, then wipe away excess cleaner and allow to dry. As for leather surfaces, use a leather cleaner followed by a conditioner to keep it supple. Apply the products to a microfiber cloth for gentle and thorough cleaning.

Finally, Clean the Floor Mats

Lastly, remove the mats from the car and shake them out to remove any loose dirt and debris. Use a carpet cleaner and a stiff-bristled brush to scrub the mats' surface. Rinse with water and let them air dry completely before replacing them in the car.
