Cleaning the interior portion of your car is just as important as cleaning its exterior. Internal is an extremely important part to ensure preventative maintenance. Unclean air vents spread various allergens along with dust in the cabin through several ways. Dirty mirrors and filmy windows could prevent a driver from viewing the road clearly. Grime and grit can easily stick inside switches and buttons, which could also potentially cause them to stop working. 

​

You might be wondering whether there is any method to clean all of this. Well, the answer is yes-and that method is steam cleaning. It is perhaps the most renowned method for properly cleaning the interior as well as the exterior of a car. It has gathered a lot of attention, especially from professional auto detailers, who utilize steam cleaning to make a car look as good as new. 

​

The Innovation behind Steam Cleaning

You might not be aware of this, but steam cleaning has proven to be a revolutionary system that has bought a massive change to the car wash industry all over the world. Several factors contributed to its increase in use. Some of those factors are:

​

• The tendency of high pressure water sprayers getting moisture inside sensitive automobile electronics

• Restrictions in water use

• The ban on several harsh yet effective chemicals

• Reduction of time and effort required

​

Quite a lot of mobile auto detailers use steam cleaning for degreasing engines, disinfecting, heating vents/air conditioning, cleaning interiors, and in some cases, washing entire cars. Those who value their vehicle enjoy keeping it clean at all times, and what better than steam cleaning to keep their car tidy from the inside and out. Just as the name implies, detailing is essentially meticulous cleaning. It goes way beyond just picking up emptying ashtrays and picking up wrappers. 

Steam cleaning has quite a lot of benefits. Let us discuss some of them:

​
