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
