The End-of-Summer Car Interior Cleanup Guide
Between beach trips, melted snacks, dusty feet, and back-to-school chaos, summer is brutal on your car’s interior.
But with the right products and a few smart techniques, you can refresh your cabin and reset it before the fall rush kicks in.
Step 1: Remove Trash, Gear, and Floor Mats
- ✔️ Empty out water bottles, wrappers, toys, and travel leftovers
- ✔️ Take out all-weather mats and vacuum or hose them down
- ✔️ Don’t forget under the seats (especially if you have kids!)
Step 2: Vacuum Every Surface (Even the Forgotten Ones)
Focus on:

Step 4: Dress High-Wear Plastic and Rubber
For a finished look, apply All Dressed Up to your door panels, dash, and rubber seals. It gives a clean, uniform look—no high gloss or slimy finish.
Step 5: Don’t Forget the Windows
Use your Cabin Cleaner on glass for a streak-free wipe. Or, for a full-glass routine, pair it with a clean microfiber towel just for windows and work in straight lines.
