When Did Your Car Interior Get So Minging?
Happens gradually - crisp packets shoved down seats, muddy footprints, mysterious sticky patches, that smell. One day you give someone a lift and realise your car's properly disgusting. Time for a deep clean.
💡 Pro tip: If you eat in your car regularly, a monthly quick clean stops it becoming a deep clean job. But we're past that point now, aren't we?

🔧 DIY Tips
Fancy doing it yourself? Here's how to get professional results:
🔧 What you'll need
- Good vacuum (ideally with attachments)
- Microfiber cloths
- Interior cleaner (or diluted all-purpose cleaner)
- Glass cleaner
- Soft brush for dashboard vents
- Bin bags for rubbish
📐 Tackle it systematically
- Empty everything: Rubbish, belongings, floor mats - all out
- Vacuum first: Before wiping anything (don't spread dust)
- Top to bottom: Headlining, windows, dashboard, then lower
- Seats next: Vacuum thoroughly, treat stains if needed
- Carpets last: Vacuum, shampoo if you're keen
- Windows final: Streak-free finish
🧽 Cleaning different surfaces
- Plastics: Damp microfiber cloth, interior cleaner
- Fabric seats: Vacuum, spot-clean stains, fabric cleaner for bad cases
- Leather: Leather cleaner then conditioner (important!)
- Carpets: Vacuum, carpet cleaner for stains
- Windows: Glass cleaner, microfiber cloth, circular then straight wipes
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Wiping before vacuuming - spreads dust around
- Too much product - leaves residue
- Forgetting under seats - that's where the worst muck hides
- Using furniture polish on dashboard - goes greasy in sun
- Wet-cleaning leather without conditioning - it'll crack
💡 Pro trick: Use a soft paintbrush to dust out air vents and tight gaps before vacuuming. Gets dirt loose so the vacuum can suck it up.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🐕 Got a dog? Regular cleaning (monthly-ish) stops hair embedding in fabric. Once it's properly embedded, it's a nightmare to get out.
Often combined with:
- Exterior wash (full valet service)
- Boot liner fitting
- Upholstery stain treatment
Maintenance: A quick 10-minute vacuum and wipe weekly stops it getting bad again. Clear rubbish every time you fill up with fuel.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in an interior deep clean?
Full vacuum (seats, carpets, boot, under seats), all hard surfaces wiped (dashboard, centre console, door cards), windows cleaned inside, rubber mats cleaned or carpets shampooed if needed. Basically everything you'd do yourself if you had the time and energy.
Can you get rid of dog hair?
Mostly yes - good vacuum with the right attachments gets 95% of it. Some fabrics hold hair like velcro, but I'll get it as good as possible. If you've got a dog that sheds constantly, regular cleaning stops it building up to nightmare levels.
Will it get rid of smells?
Depends what's causing them. Cleaning removes the sources (food crumbs, spills, general muck) which is usually the problem. Proper stubborn smells might need specific treatment, but a thorough clean sorts most issues.
Do you need electricity or can you bring equipment?
I bring a cordless vacuum and battery power for everything, so no need for outside power. If you've got a socket I can use it's helpful for bigger jobs, but not essential.
How long does a deep clean take?
Hour to 90 minutes for a normal car. Longer if you've got a 7-seater full of kids' cr ap or you've been ignoring it for years. I'll be honest about timescale when I see what state it's in.
