Detailing Your Car抯 Interior




For car lovers who spend most of their time working on their cars for hours or even days just to present it on their selves as a precious gift, cleaning the interior is more important than the exterior. Enthusiasts will spend most of their time detailing their cars' inside and it will still make sense. Technically, there are two surfaces of a car抯 interior which are divided into: the breathable surfaces which include the cloth of the car抯 seats and the vinyl such as the dashboard.





Step 1 ?Vacuum



Before plugging in the vacuum and inhaling everything that comes in contact, you have to first remove the things that will go against your work like the mats, auto kits, etc. You must use a strong kind of vacuum. The small ones which run through rechargeable batteries will not be enough more so those that are plugged inside the lighter plug of your car. It is more advisable that you use something more powerful like your home抯 vacuum cleaner. That would be perfect for the job.





Remove the mats and just do the cleaning separately. Vacuum everything in sight which includes those that will soon be cleaned with liquid cleaner. Use a brush for places inside your car that could get marred with any impact coming from solid edge attachments.





Step 2 ?Do the vinyl



This is easier than vacuuming. Just use a vinyl cleaner like Simple Green which is pretty much available in automobile stores and the like. Dilute part of the concentration to water then go intense for stains that are stubborn. Drench the soft cloth inside the mixture then apply it in a liberal manner to the concerned sections. After applying, dry it up immediately using a towel made from microfiber. This is not advised to be used in metallic surfaces.





Step 3 ?Innermost cleaning



If you have the strength for it, remove the car seats every time you do interior detailing. That is how thorough your cleaning should be. It will be easier on your part to clean the interior if you have no seats to hinder your cleaning although there are cars that don抰 allow you to remove the seats so you have to work hard just to get the dirt out of the tiny spaces present on your car seats.





Step 4 ?Floor mat cleaning



This is also easy. After removing them from your car抯 interior, whale away then hose them and consider them as part of the wash job exteriorly. Majority who do this gets most of the dirt out but some may find it quite difficult. If the exterior washing doesn抰 get the job done, then it is now necessary to apply a carpet cleaner then brush it.





Clean the part of the driver抯 seat covered in vinyl with whatever chosen equivalent you have available. Never try treating the area with dressing for it will cause some problems like the driver getting slipped and may have difficulties in pedals.





Tough tip: it is always good to use hot or warm water whenever you plan on cleaning your interior. You can heat it up in a microwave although this strategy is only meant for those who are doing it at home because when it comes to professional car detailing, the model will be stronger. Other models will provide provisions for water heating.

Valeting and Interior Car Detailing




Having a car these days is no longer considered a luxury. If you live in the US, it is a necessity to have a car. So when you already have a car, you need to take good care of it through the interior car detailing and car valeting.





Let抯 look into interior car detailing. This is not a very difficult task because you can do this yourself. To start of, check the carpets of the car. Try to remove all the stains on the car carpet using a brush and a stain remover. But before you remove the stain, you need to vacuum it first. For the mild stains, get a spray bottle and dilute the solution inside it.





Don抰 spray too much so that mildew can be avoided. After the stains are removed, let the carpet dry completely. Don抰 forget to clean the floor mats of your car. You can use a rigid or stiff brush to clean the floor mat and take it outside to dry completely.





Second, you can look into the upholstery. Vacuum all the car seats and if you find any stains, remove it just like how you removed the carpet stains. Leave the doors of the car open to dry the seats.





Check the door jambs. You can use soapy solutions to clean the plastic and metal parts of the car door. Use a rag to dry the door jambs. If you find tougher stains, you can use brushes or Q-tips to remove it.





The car windows should be cleaned with a glass cleaner using soapy solutions. Make sure that you dry the window thoroughly and erase streaks.





The dashboard can also contain dirt and stains. Remember not to spray any cleaning solution or water on the dashboard of your car. Put cleaning solutions on the cleaning tools and then cautiously clean the buttons and knobs. Everything should be dried thoroughly.





So you see, interior car detailing is not as hard as you think. You can even do it yourself. There are also car kits that you can purchase if you want to do the task yourself. You can invest on the car kits and maintain the cleanliness of your car without paying for any detailing service. Some car detailing services charge high fees and so if you want to avoid such high fees, do the interior car detailing on your own.

Interior Repair Techs

Interior Repair is so simple. So easy!...yet, some manage to mess it up still. I mean, go ask a painter how easy it is to color match a pearl white, or ask a Paintless Dent Repair Technician how simple it is to remove a 24" crease through a body line. But interior repair tech? Damn, such easy work. Leather, vinyl, velor and carpet. All in a days work, and step by step, great results await you. But, heres how you can avoid success, and sink your Interior Repair day in no time..
1) Rush your work. Yup, time is money, so don't take your time...haul ass and finish in seconds. Who cares how the repair looks anyways..
2) Don't color test your dyes prior to redying. Just spray and hope. I mean, why would you want to be sure the leather dye on that Mercedes is a spot on match, right? Heck, it might take you 2-3 minutes to do so..
3) Use cheap products. Yeah, everyone says good products keep your business coming back and save you time, but spray paint and household glue from Home Depot are SO cheap! Use crap products...

4) Don't grain your leather and vinyl repairs. Yeah, just fix the rip or tear or hole, and then fill and dye. Sure the area texture wont match and will be smooth and standout like a sore thumb, but time is money... so move on.
5) Don't remove a stain, always dye it. Sure, it might come right up with Acetone, but that would be too easy. Complicate it...use a spray dye, or better yet a spray paint from your Home Depot run..a surefire way to have more problems.
These are just 5 examples..God knows there are HUNDREDS more.
