Keeping your car clean inside is more than a matter of aesthetics; it is also essential to prolong the life of the upholstery. When we talk about cleaning the car upholstery, the idea is to keep the seats and the interior in perfect condition, preventing dirt and stains from accumulating and being difficult to remove. Here are some infallible tips for cleaning car upholstery and how to protect it so that it always looks impeccable.
1. Choose your cleaning products wisely
Choosing the right products is key. Make sure you use a specific cleaner for upholstery that does not damage the fabrics. Avoid very aggressive products that may deteriorate the color or texture of the seats. For car seat cleaning, a mixture of water and neutral soap is a very good option, but always test a small area first to make sure it does not cause discoloration.
2. Regular vacuuming
Before applying any product, it is best to thoroughly vacuum the seats and interior of the car. This removes dust, crumbs, sand and any surface dirt that may scratch the fabric or leather during cleaning. Doing this regularly makes it much easier to clean the car upholstery when necessary.
3. Treat stains immediately
If you spill something on the seats, don't wait to wipe it up. The faster you act, the easier it will be to prevent the stain from setting. For stubborn stains, such as grease or coffee, use specific car upholstery cleaning products that don't require rinsing and leave a fresh, clean, odor-free finish.
4. Protect seats with seat covers
Here comes the simplest but most effective trick: protect your seats with quality seat covers. Seat covers for camper vans, such as those from Glassy, not only provide a visual and style plus, especially if they are older seats, but they are also a barrier against dirt, liquids and daily wear and tear. They also save time, as cleaning is reduced to a simple shake of the cover, or a wash of the cover. Investing in protecting your car seats with proper seat covers will save you a lot of time, and money in the long run on cleaning products or professional cleaning services.

What about the cost of cleaning the car's upholstery?
While car upholstery cleaning may seem like an expense, think of it as an investment in the durability and value of your vehicle. Prices for professional services may vary depending on the type of upholstery and the condition of the seats, but with good maintenance and protection, you'll be able to space out these deep cleanings. Remember that by using seat covers such as Glassy's, you can extend the intervals between professional cleanings, or even save on these cleanings.
6. Frequency of thorough cleaning
For a thorough cleaning of the car upholstery, it is recommended to do it once or twice a year, depending on the use. If you travel a lot or often carry pets or children, it may be necessary to clean more frequently. In such cases, seat covers become your best ally, since in the case of pets, the hairs do not remain embedded in the Glassy seat covers, and you can easily wash them by hand or machine without spin-drying and thus not worry about the original upholstery.
Conclusion
Keeping your car's interior clean is easier than it seems when you follow these tips and, above all, when you take preventive measures such as using high-quality car seat covers. With Glassy seat covers, you not only protect the interior of your vehicle, but you also save time and effort with every cleaning, making car cleaning a quick and easy task and always enjoy a spotless interior!
P.S.: An air freshener every 2 weeks can also help you to make your vehicle feel cleaner.
