Tips In Car Carpet Cleaning

 

There’s nothing worse than turning your car into a messy home on the road. Drive thru food and drinks, children with sticky hands and your favorite pet drooling all over the car seat can all make your car interior look nasty.

 

Be it leather, cloth or carpet, your car will look all worn out and beaten with all these elements hanging inside. By keeping the car clean inside and out, you are keeping its market value up. Such car cleaning practices can help you sell your car at a good price.

 

To help you keep your car carpet clean, here are a few tips to help you out:

  • Cleaning after coffee spills should not be that hard. Immediately, dilute it with cool water and blot it using clean rags. If the stain remains after it has dried up, spray a glass cleaner in the area and allow it to soak for at least five minutes. Then blot it with a clean towel and the stain will be gone.

  • To clean off greasy parts of the car carpeting, use paint thinner and a clean cotton cloth. Cover the stain with salt until all the grease is gone.

  • Open ink stain on the car carpet can be lifted out using a hair spray. Putting on salt to the stained area and allowing it to sit until all the stain has been absorbed will help keep the car carpet cleaned out as well. Repeat the process whenever necessary.

  • Stains from vomit whether it is from children, adult or pet passengers should immediately be cleaned out and neutralized, not only because it can bring about the spread of germs, but it is acidic and could be very bad for the car carpeting. Using a mixture of baking soda and water, such carsickness stains can be diluted immediately.

  • Blood stains all over the car carpet can be covered with a paste made up with dried laundry starch and cold water. Never use hot water as it will only let the stain set on the carpet. Allow the mixture and the stain to dry up before you brush it off or vacuum.

  • For beer and other alcohol stains, it is best to dilute it immediately with cold water to keep it from damaging the color of the carpet permanently.

Keeping the car carpet clean can be challenging and intriguing at the same time. There are many products in the market that could help clean and wash off stains on the carpet. All you need is to know what caused the stain to find the perfect way to get rid of it immediately.
