Interior detailing is a maintenance service, not a luxury!

Given the current climate of the world where everyone is dealing with COVID-19, there has been an extreme shift people's awareness of germs and viruses. Between the mask, cleaning supplies and hand sanitizer shortages; it is clear that people are more focused than ever on making sure high contact areas are clean and sanitized.

Most people do not even think about the exposure that could come from inside your car. It is shocking that one third of drivers only clean their car once a year according to CarRentals.com and 12% surveyed have never cleaned the interior of their vehicle.
Even worse is the the fact that your car steering wheel is covered in 4x more bacteria than a public toilet seat (from the same CarRentals.com survey).

Here is one example of a recent interior detail we did where it looked like it had never been cleaned. The first photo is a 50/50 of our carpet cleaning process. Some of the staining in this Subaru was not removable due to it setting into the fabric. Luckily we were still able to ensure this customers safety by cleaning and sanitizing it to the best of our ability!

What can you do to keep safe?

 Our best advice would be to wipe down all high-contact areas in your vehicle with a microfiber towel  and a product like Gtechniq Tri-Clean  on a weekly basis. Gtechniq Tri-Clean is all-surface interior product that cleans, kills 99.9% of bacteria (thanks to BioCote) and absorbs odors leaving your vehicle looking and smelling great! You can make this process easier by applying interior protection like Gyeon Leather Shield  and Gyeon Fabric Coat. We also apply industry leading interior protection from Opti-Coat in the form of Opti-Guard Leather & Fabric. These interior coatings  are warrantied for 5 years and get registered with CarFax so future owner know you cared for your vehicle!
We would recommend wiping down the following areas every week:

• Steering Wheel
• Door Handles
• Blinker & wiper stalk
• Touch screen(s)
• Radio buttons
• Car keys (Often forgotten by DIY detailer and professional detailers alike)

 
If you do not want to worry about this, our maintenance wash package  will keep the inside and the outside of your vehicle looking like new. We can even come to your home or office in St. Louis, Chesterfield, Wentzville, O'Fallon and even Ladue with our convenient mobile detailing service.
