With the Coronavirus spreading rapidly around the world, people are buying cleaning products and performing deep cleanings more than ever. People focus on home and office cleaning, but what about your car? Vehicles may carry all the nasty germs that you come into contact with when you are away from home. Here are a few tips to help you disinfect your car to keep you safe from the horrible Coronavirus.
First, it is important to careful consider what type of cleaners you use. You want gentle cleaners, like soap. The chemicals in soap detergents, such as Dawn liquid soap, are actually very effective at working against viruses. Alcohol-based products may effectively rid surfaces of germs, though it is not ideal for car disinfecting. It is best to avoid them for the interior of cars, because they can be too harsh. The key is to use products with mild detergents, while skipping the ones that are detergent-free.
Car cleaners a good option, since they are specifically made for them, but make sure to read the labels before using them on any surface. This is important to note when cleaning leather seats. The wrong product on leather seats can remove the moisture from it and make it dried out. A great way to keep moisture in leather seats is by using leather conditioners. They contain chemicals called surfactants, which are used to help cleaners get into places that regular cleaners cannot.
Some other products to avoid are solvents, like acetones and kerosene, because they cause damage and don’t properly disinfect against viruses. Household disinfectant sprays may not be effective enough. Also beware of using cleaning wipes that contain bleach. When in doubt, you can spot test a cleaner first to make sure it is safe to use.
Focus on cleaning all the things that are touched the most, for example… the steering wheel, shifter, door handles, buttons, etc. Be sure to regularly clean your car to keep the germs at bay. Also, don’t forget to wash your hands when you get home.
