Interior Cleaning and Detailing
Restore your car’s interior to it’s former glory
Benefits of Interior Detailing
No matter how good your car looks on the outside, if it’s cluttered and dirty on the inside, it will still reflect who you are as an owner. Spending a considerable amount of time behind wheels and on the road can take a toll on your car’s interior. It’s easy to take care of your car’s exterior with just a wash and wax service but the upkeep of a car’s interior is often overlooked.

What is Deep Car Interior Cleaning?
A deep car interior cleaning caters to car owners who are looking to remove specific stubborn stains from their car seats or floors.
Cleaning a car interior is a time and labor intensive process. Food and drink stains are the most common problem customers ask us to remove. Most of the time, stains come from coffee, juice, milk, and food sauces. We are also asked to remove organic stains such as vomit and pet accidents.
We try to remove as much pet hair, sand, stains and dirt as possible. We will do thorough vacuuming, steam cleaning, scrubbing, and carpet shampooing. In short, almost every surface of your car interior will be cleaned.
Deep Car Interior Cleaning Process

First, we ask the customer questions and information regarding the condition of the vehicle. Then we ask them to remove all loose and valuable items and car seats.

Second, we wash and scrub your rubber floor mats and door jambs. Then we wipe and use a blower to dry.

Interior Cleaning Tools
We use powerful tools to transform filthy car interiors and make them new. The specific auto upholstery cleaner tools that we use are:
Steam Cleaner
A steam cleaner is a powerful tool that converts water into heat and very high pressure. What comes out from the nozzle is a very hot, high pressurized vapor. This pressurized hot vapor deep cleans, and kills most bacteria and germs. It also helps to loosen stubborn stains embedded in the car cloth seats and carpet. When we encounter stains on car seats and carpet, our steam cleaner helps us a lot to remove 80-90% of the stains.
Carpet Extractor
When a steam cleaner fails to remove stubborn stains we use a carpet extractor. A carpet extractor is a powerful machine that can pump out and vacuum liquid at the same time. It uses a special cleaning solution that is effective in removing nasty stains. It is popular in the carpet cleaning industry because of how effective it is in removing stains. They work like a regular vacuum but specialize in suctioning liquid.
Air Compressor and Drill Brush
We use an air compressor and drill brush to loosen up the sand. Then we vacuum it up. We invest in a portable air compressor that has an air gun hose and nozzle attachment. The pressurized air is very effective at dislodging sand particles. While we’re using compressed air, we use a drill brush to further remove the fine sand within the fabric. This two-step combination removes sand, dust and other loose dirt. It makes vacuuming a lot easier and faster.
Other Detailing Services
We also offer a variety of other car detailing services such as headlight restoration, paint correction, scratch removal, etc. Discover more services on the exterior services and full detail services pages. Interior detailing services are best paired with car wash and wax services.
