How to Clean and Maintain Your Car in the Coronavirus Era When it comes to cleaning your car, the primary surfaces you need to worry about will be those that you or others have touched with their hands or coughed on. Those surfaces will generally be painted metal or plastic (exterior door handles), plastic or vinyl (steering wheel, shifter, control stalks and other controls, and armrests and seats, leather (seats, possibly steering wheel and more) and fabric (seats and carpets). Most of these aren’t as durable as, say, a countertop or bathroom sink, so we need to narrow down the cleaning methods recommended by the Centers for Disease Control for fighting COVID-19. Mainly, forget about using chlorine bleach, at any dilution, and watch out for wipes that might use it as an ingredient. While this chemical will certainly kill germs, car detailing experts (and manufacturers) warn that it may do irreparable damage to your car’s interior, and if it gets on your seat belts, weaken their fabric and compromise your safety. Similarly, avoid peroxide-based cleaners, which may also cause damage. Lysol wipes and their generic equivalents should be fine, as are alcohol-based products (like hand sanitizers). These, of course, are in high demand. If you’re concerned about dipping into your hoard, remember that the CDC notes that the best approach is to take two steps: clean, then disinfect. So, you could simply use a gentle household cleaner, an existing car-specific cleaner, or even just soap and water (in a cloth) to first clean the hard surfaces. Since there are electronics involved, keep the amount of liquid to a minimum, and I suggest using a microfiber cloth to get the most dirt off with the fewest scratches. Then you can go back and do a quick wipe down with a germ-killing product. Don’t forget the seat-belt buckles. Since CDC guidelines suggest fabrics are unlikely to be a germ vector, we see no need to mess with cloth upholstery or carpet. Leather is a harder call, particularly if it’s on your steering wheel. We’d suggest that for every few times you use something virucidal on a leather-wrapped steering wheel, you also consider a wipe with a leather-care product that contains some moisturizers, for the leather’s sake, not yours. When it comes to cleaning someone else’s car (say, you’re a ride-share passenger), use wipes in a bag on any surfaces you touch, and sanitize afterward. And, if your driver hasn’t done so already, put your windows down. Car in quarantine? Quarantines and the like may affect driving patterns. Caring for an elderly relative or friend who’s not supposed to go out may also mean caring for their vehicle, for example. A few tips about that: Machinery likes to be exercised. The best way to keep up a car is to drive it, at least once every two weeks, in a way that it gets fully warmed up at least 10 miles, preferably at highway speeds. Just turning a car on and idling it for a while doesn’t count; in fact, it’s probably a negative. Drive it. Gas with ethanol in it goes bad quickly, in a matter of a few months. If you don’t think you’ll make it through a tankful by the time this is all over, add fuel stabilizer, like you would to a lawnmower or snowblower. We are also more than happy to service you during this time, and will remain open to help in any way, or even answer questions. Call us today - 412-290-0004 or visit PittsburghCarDetail.com.
