 We don’t have to educate you on the concerns in our world right now about keeping ourselves safe from viruses and disease. We are all well aware of the impact that Covid-19 has had on our way of life. We are working on keeping our selves and our homes virus free. But are you doing enough to keep your vehicle free of harmful germs?
Often, we are just not aware of how many germs are found in our vehicles. It is important to understand this and take the right measures to eliminate them. With recommendations that are supported by our Medical Health Advisors, we are prepared to ensure the correct interior car detailing is provided to you. For your health and safety. But we also want to share this information to you, the general public. Whether you use our car detailing service or not. Below is comments regarding cleaning your vehicle by Mobile Auto Detailing in Edmonton. For cleaning the interior of your vehicles, we strongly urge you to do steam cleaning of all carpets and fabric surfaces. This has been found to be strong in killing the corona virus. Use steam to clean your seats, floor mats, headliner, air vents, and even your steering wheel. For the hard surfaces (such as dashboard), we recommend using products that are both germ-killing and safe on your interior. This can include many all-purpose household cleaners, Lysol, and even rubbing alcohol. You may be in a good habit now of wiping down surfaces as you get in or leave your vehicle. We do strongly feel that a deep cleaning is required still. Then your wipe downs will have more impact on keeping the interior more germ free, between deep cleans. Next, we would like to just offer some of our best practices, that can be adapted to becoming yours, during this challenging time. When we are working on your vehicle, we always wear rubber gloves. Obviously, we don’t want to contaminate your vehicle with any germs. But we also need to protect ourselves from picking up any from your vehicle. This might feel strange to you, if you are the only one operating or riding in your vehicle. But can you be sure that you have not tracked anything unwanted into your vehicle? Once done with the clean, we dispose of rubber gloves. While it might be possible to disinfect them, at least to an acceptable level, during this pandemic we are disposing of them. It is better to be safe and not take any unnecessary risk. The cost of new rubber gloves is minimal. Once we have removed the rubber gloves and disposed of them, we wash our hands with antibacterial soap and water. While our hands may have been protected while wearing the gloves, taking them off could have exposed them to germs on the outside. So regular cleaning of hands and hand sanitizing is still required. And to close, we would like to provide you a list of some of the spots in your vehicle that are the most vulnerable to exposure. Steering Wheels Gear Shifts Door Handles Climate Control and Radio Buttons Dashboard Centre Console Glove Box If you pause and reflect on surfaces that are touched often, you can add to this list yourself. According to your own vehicle use. Be mindful that contact surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned. We hope that is has increased your awareness about proper cleaning and car detailing that is needed. With the Covid 19 pandemic, we all have become more aware of the need to sanitize. But beyond that, keeping your vehicle clean is important. Eliminating dust and airborne particles can protect loved ones with breathing issues. And help stop the spread of germs that cause the flu and other seasonal conditions. And keeping your car clean will help maintain its resale value down the road. Comments are closed.
