Many people think that car washing and detailing are synonymous. It is far from true. A detailed car wash goes further than your typical carwash to make sure that you get a spotless vehicle, both on the outside and the inside. When compared to car washing, the cleaning process is done manually. Instead, the car’s cleaning is performed by detailing professionals – extra resources!
Detailing is divided into Interior Detailing and Exterior Detailing.
Detailing the interior of your car is also known as cleaning. Some of the parts that make up the vehicle’s interior are leather, plastics or vinyl. Interior detailing includes various techniques such as steaming and vacuuming.
Exterior detailing means vacuuming the outside of your vehicle, cleaning it, and restoring or even improving its original appearance. A vehicle’s external components are its wheels, window, and tire. You can use degreasers to clean your vehicle’s exterior.
This is what you can expect when the interior and exterior of a car are detailled.
Interior Car Detailing
Exterior beauty can’t compare to interior beauty. That is why it takes more time to detail the inside of a vehicle than to do exterior detailing. The interior of your vehicle can be dirty, which isn’t only harmful to health, but is also a hazard when driving.
If your air intake is dirty, allergens are spread throughout your interior. Grit and stains will cause your switches to not work. And dirty windows and windshields may obscure your visibility while you’re driving. These are all reasons that cleaning an automobile’s interior is more complicated than washing the inside with soapy water.
The interior detailing of a vehicle: Steps
Although there are several ways of detailing the insides of cars, each detailer will have his or her own special method. The general procedure remains the same:
The first step to clean an interior car is to vacuum. You should also vacuum your seats, back storage, trunk area and headliners. Vacuuming the car’s interior effectively means vacuuming the mats, the floor and both. Air compressors can be used to clean those tough to reach spots that the vacuum is not able to.
Cleaning the mats and carpets in your car is done by steaming and brushing. It is important to scrub your mats thoroughly in order to get rid of any dirt or stain that has accumulated. Use a powerful steam cleaner to achieve the desired results. If you use a carpet steam cleaner it’s important that they are dried thoroughly to avoid mildew.
Cleaning the Windscreen: Use a Glad Clearer to clean the glass. So that the windscreen does not obscure the driver’s sight and remains sparkling.
The leather trims should be cleaned thoroughly with a saddle soap, leather cleaning soap and leather cleaner. Be sure that you clean any areas with excessive amounts of soap using a moistened rag. Use a leather conditioner that is tailored to your leather once it has been dried. This will help you improve the cleaning process.
The interior should be thoroughly cleaned and vacuumed again. The dashboard and the windows should be cleaned thoroughly with a cloth dampened in detergent. The interior shine will return once you have completed all the steps.
It is possible to use air fresheners to perfume the room.
