We can all agree that these last few months have absolutely flipped our world upside down. Covid-19 has forever changed our lives, and it’s safe to say that keeping the insides and outsides of our vehicles clean is vital. Below are a few car sanitizing tips to keep you driving germ-free.
1. When wiping down high contact areas of your vehicle, be sure to use a cleaning solution that is at least 70% alcohol-based. This will keep your steering wheel, door handles, gearshift, radio knobs and seat adjusters in tip top CDC-shape.
2. Don’t forget about your seatbelts, cup holders and armrests! Soap and water or basic disinfectant wipes serve as a great cleaning alternative to alcohol-based products that may not be available to you or that may damage the material of these particular surfaces.
3. If you regularly drive others around in your vehicle, disinfect and sanitize between every single car ride. While it may seem excessive at first, you can never be too cautious when it comes to COVID-19.
4. Now more than ever, routinely changing your cabin air filter is crucial. Filters collect microbiological material – aka COVID-19 germs – and should be taken very seriously. If looking to switch out your own air filters, be sure to wear gloves and a mask while doing so.
