Interior Deep Clean step by step guide:
Please see below our Depo interior clean step by step guide!
🧹 Step 1: Declutter & Initial Vacuum
Start by removing all rubbish and personal items. Take out floor mats, then vacuum the entire interior—seats, carpets, under seats, and tight gaps using a crevice tool.
This is easier to do with a carpet spray to help brake and loosen dirt for initial vacuum.
—————————————————————————————————
🪑 Step 2: Floor Mats Deep Clean
- Rubber mats: pressure wash + scrub with APC
- Carpet mats: shampoo, agitate, then rinse and extract
Leave them to dry fully before putting back.
—————————————————————————————————
🧼 Step 3: Dashboard, Plastics & Trim
Use an all-purpose cleaner (APC) with:
- Microfiber cloths
- Soft detailing brushes
Focus on vents, buttons, cup holders, and hard-to-reach areas.
—————————————————————————————————
🪟 Step 4: Glass & Mirrors
Use a dedicated glass cleaner and a waffle weave or low-pile microfiber towel. Clean inside windows last to avoid overspray from earlier steps.
—————————————————————————————————
🧴 Step 5: Seats Deep Clean
Use:
- Fabric seats: shampoo + drill brush + extraction
- Leather seats: gentle cleaner + soft brush + microfiber
Work in sections and avoid over-soaking.
—————————————————————————————————
💨 Step 6: Carpets Extraction (Optional but Pro-Level)
For a true deep clean, use an extractor or wet vac to remove embedded dirt and stains from carpets and fabric surfaces.
—————————————————————————————————
🌬️ Step 7: Odour Removal & Air Freshening
Use:
- Odour eliminator spray
- Cabin filter check/replacement (if needed)
Avoid overpowering scents—aim for a clean, neutral smell.
—————————————————————————————————
✨ Step 8: Protect & Finish
Apply:
- Interior dressing (UV protection, satin finish)
- Leather conditioner (if applicable)
This restores the look and protects surfaces from fading and cracking.
—————————————————————————————————
🔑 Pro Tips
- Use multiple clean microfiber towels (don’t reuse dirty ones)
- Work top to bottom (dash → seats → carpets)
- Don’t soak electronics or buttons
- Always test products on a small area first
