Essential Interior Car Detailing Advice for Winterizing Your Vehicle

Interior car detailing is a frequent must for the muddy and icy Midwest winter months. We know that chemicals and road salts in the snow and ice found on the road and in parking lots can cause serious damage to the paint of your vehicle. But did you know that they can cause just as much damage to the inside of your vehicle? Because of that, Auto Beauty Center wants to help by offering a guide on how to winterize your vehicle’s interior.

 

 

With the slushy mucky winter months, fabric floor mats that come with most vehicles can become a ghastly sight. Floor mats made from waterproof materials are easier to clean and won’t absorb the salt water ice slurry that can build up on it. Once absorbed into fabric floor mats, that mixture can permeate and transfer to the metal underneath the fabric.

 

 

Whenever possible, try to park in covered areas. These areas will keep the vehicle slightly warmer. There will also be less snow and grime build up on the ground in these locations, providing a barrier to tracking that into your car. If you have access to a private garage, it’s a good idea to leave your windows down to help dry out any moisture inside the vehicle.

 

 

The same road salt present that is the reason for the last two tips is going to end up in your car to some extent no matter what you do. Taking a vacuum to your upholstery regularly can pick up salt and dirt that will get tracked into your car as you rush to escape the cold and the snow. Make sure to hit places like the seats, the floorboards, and the dashboard, as well as the trunk of the vehicle. Road salt is corrosive to your interior, the same as it is to your suspension.That’s why Auto Beauty Center recommends our interior car detailing services.
