Homemade Car Interior Cleaning Solutions - All Natural

 Has your car interior seen better days?  Is the sun shining through the filthy windshield and highlighting the dust, dirt and grime on the dashboard?

This is the sad state of my car.  I didn't want to go and buy and car cleaning products, so I researched on how to clean the car interior, especially the dashboard with products you use everyday.  Check it out.

To Clean the Dashboard and All Vinyl Surfaces

What you will need:

White vinegar

Water

clean cloth

Method:

Mix equal parts white vinegar with warm water into a spray bottle, and spray on your dashboard and then wipe off with the cloth.  If super greasy and dirty, let it sit for a few minutes.

Vinegar is the best cleaner for the vinyl and dashboard since regular household cleaners are too harsh and tend to leave a film.

THIS WORKS!

Now condition the surfaces.

How to Condition the Dashboard and All Vinyl Surfaces

What you will need:

Olive oil

Clean cloth

Method:

Take your clean cloth put a LITTLE olive oil on the cloth and then wipe onto the surface and then rub in and wipe off. 

You don't need much olive oil.  You will get a feel for the right amount, best to start with a tiny amount.


Car Upholstery and Carpets


If your upholstery is looking sad and stained...

What you will need:

1 x cup of white vinegar

2 x drops of dish soap

1 x gallon of warm water

Method:

1.  Vacuum the seats and carpets first to get rid of crumbs and debris.

2.  Take a cloth or soft scrubber brush and dip into the water/vinegar/ dish soap solution and dab and scrub at the stains.  Don't over saturate, the idea is to just get rid of the dirt and stains.

3.  Let dry.

Hopefully the above were helpful hints to clean and bring the inside of your car to life on the cheap, without having to risk your health in a store.

Then there is always new car mats or seat covers you can buy online if the dirt has simply gone to far!!  check out below for ideas.

STAY SAFE EVERYONE!
