Step 2: Cleaning Your Car’s Interior Includes Removing Trash and Debris
A car may have all manner of trash and debris ranging from food particles, wrappers, and pet hair, bottles, diaper or wipe boxes, empty snack bags, among other things. Remove anything that you do not want and place it in the trash bin. Also, remove toys, door pockets, floorboards, and other essential items and place them outside. You can take them back to the car after cleaning.
Step 3: Remove Mats and Clean Them
Remove all floor mats from your car and shake them outside. You may also vacuum them to remove all the dust before cleaning. Scrub each mat using soap and hot water and place them on a clean surface. Let them dry well as you clean other interior parts of your car.
Step 4: Vacuum Seats and Floors
After removing trash and debris, you may have small particles left behind. It is best to vacuum your car to remove small particles and dust to ease your cleaning. Vacuum the seats gently to avoid damaging the leather. Then use a dusting mitt to remove all the dust to allow easy penetration of the cleaning substance.

Windows and mirrors are fragile and delicate, so handle them with care when cleaning. Spray the window cleaner on the windows and wipe it clean and dry using a microfiber cloth. If you do not want to buy a window cleaner, you can make one at home by mixing one cup of rubbing alcohol, a cup of water, and two to three tablespoons of vinegar.
