Believe It Or Not, It's More Important To Clean Your Car Than Your House!

Here's a secret nobody talks about: Cleaning your car regularly is more important than cleaning your house. Think about it. Most drivers get in their car multiple times a day, sitting in a much tinier space than their home, while closer to the contaminants building up in the interior.

You don't always know the contaminants are there, but they're a danger to your health.

Your Vehicle Is an Extension of Your Home.
For many people, their car is a second home. A lot occurs in your car, from everyday, mundane events to sentimental moments. Schmicko describes a vehicle well: “It's where you listen to podcasts, eat quick meals, and sometimes have heart-to-heart conversations.”

Of course, you want a polished environment for these moments, but it isn't just about aesthetics. Keeping a clean car is a social responsibility. A clean car reflects proper health and hygiene and contributes to a stress-free drive.

Eliminate Contaminants, Safety Hazards, and Odor.
Unfortunately, there are many health contaminants in an unclean vehicle to worry about.
  • You must clean and vacuum regularly to reduce allergens, like dust and pollen. They're particularly harmful to those with asthma.
  • Food spillage, moisture, and other elements can lead to mold and bacteria growth, another asthma trigger, and unpleasant smells.
  • Simply by doing its job, the cabin air filter will get clogged and dirty. Unfortunately, running a dirty filter can damage your lungs. So, if the air from the vent smells weird, it's time to change it; otherwise, change it at least once annually.
  • Many drivers don't know about the pests, like fleas and mites, that are lurking in their car. They're difficult to eradicate without steam and special cleaning chemicals.
  • Clean windows are essential for visibility when driving. A dirty interior can lead to dangerous, fogged-up windows.
  • Clutter and mess may distract the driver.

The Fresher the Interior, the Higher the Value
Let's go over the benefits of receiving a vehicle detail:
  • A clean, shiny interior increases the resale value of the car and makes it easier to sell. When it comes to preserving looks and value, maintenance is key. We recommend establishing a proper maintenance schedule with interior details every three to six months.
  • An interior detail is an opportunity to protect your upholstery from dust, dirt, germs and fading from UV light.
  • Orozcos Auto Detailing states that “Many auto detailers have access to the latest technology for removing pollen, smoke, and other contaminants from your car's air circulation system.”

Do the hygienic thing, and schedule an interior detail today. Garza Detailing services the West Michigan Lakeshore. So, call us at 616-836-7465 or fill out our detailing form for a quote!

Get an interior detail in the Winter for a safer drive

Get an interior detail for a safer winter drive
Do you ever wonder how to feel safer driving in Winter? It isn't all about exterior vehicle maintenance; the interior matters too. What you need is an interior detail.

A clean, clear driving space gives you the focus you need when braving the slippery season. Furthermore, interior details improve your well-being and boost your mood, which can be particularly helpful for seasonal depression.

Road Salt Messes Up Your Interior, Too.
Winter weather constantly attacks your car's interior, so you must pay special attention to it! You contaminate the interior surfaces when you inevitably track in road salt and chemicals. For example, when road salt dissolves in water, it creates a white residue that builds up on the carpets and floor mats.

Furthermore, salt stains and bright sunlight fade the seats. Also, odor gets trapped in the floors, carpets, and seat covers.

Seven Ways An Interior Detail Will Give You A Better Driving Experience
Since Winter adds so many hazardous conditions to your drives, an interior detail is necessary to improve your journeys. So, let's dive into how this is possible:
  1. Cleaning interior fabric removes allergens, thus improving the air quality, which is undoubtedly healthier than driving with the windows down in the cold!
  2. Tommy's Terrific Car Wash in Plano, TX states that your vehicle should provide "a sanctuary from the chaos of the outside world.” Do you want to step in your car and get hit with a rush of chaos and stress? Just like a cluttered space can clutter your mind, a clear space can CLEAR your mind.
  3. Oftentimes, the condition of your automobile sets the tone for your drive. So, removing odor and even adding calming fragrances will allow for relaxing adventures.
  4. Like many people see cars as an expression of their owners, many drivers see their vehicles as extensions of themselves. So, when you clean your interior, you may boost your senses of control, order, and confidence.
  5. If you plan on selling your car, detailing and maintaining it will increase its resale value and attract more potential buyers.
  6. Simply put, the act of cleaning itself has mood-boosting effects.
  7. ​Clean areas are less visually stimulating, which leads to enhanced focus, mental clarity, and safer driving. A study by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety found that drivers who take their eyes off the road for more than two seconds double their risk of a crash.

So, if you live in West Michigan, we've got you covered! Call Garza Detailing at 616-836-7465 or fill out our Detailing form for a quote. We offer exterior and interior details in a controlled climate.
