1 De clutter first:

Throw away all the clutter you’ve collected in you car such as old magazines, car seats, toys, dishes, and music CDs. Keep only the essentials.



2 Broom time:

With a whisk broom, sweep out the front and back, starting with the seats and going on to the floors. Move the front seats back to sweep out dust stuck in those places.



3 Seat wise:

Vacuum the seats, along with back part and head rests. Reach out to the sides and underneath. Then move on to the floors.



4 Soapy wipe:

Dip a cloth into soapy water and wring it. Make sure its not too soapy or else it will leave sticky marks. Wipe the dashboard, steering wheel, console, vents, the inside door panels and the roof section.



5 Glass perfect:

With a fresh cloth and water or window washing solution, clean the car’s interior windows and mirrors. Dry with a paper towel. Take a cotton swab to clean crevices, nooks, rims, and ledges inside the car, especially on the dashboard or near the speakers. Also use wet newspaper to wipe the glass windows of your car. Never use a coloured cloth or paper as it can leave stains on your windows.
