Use the Clean Slate Approach
- The deep clean: It may seem obvious, but nothing provides a clean slate quite like a good detailing job. Get your car deep-cleaned (or take care of it yourself). Throw away any trash, organize everything in that chaotic glove box, and enjoy the sight of a clean car interior.
- Mind Your Surroundings: Are you in the habit of bringing your trash with you when you leave your car? If you’re not, it’s a good habit to develop, made easier once you’ve had your car detailed- it may cause you physical pain to see food wrappers or tissues in your car after putting so much effort into cleaning it.
- Clean the windows: Pets and kids: the two most lovable sources of inexplicable prints on your car windows. Use a special glass cleaner to get any particularly stubborn stuff off of the inside and out, and then use a regular window cleaner to really get them to shine.

“Less beat-up mats will look nice and also keep your floor protected.”
Replace the floor mats: The NYC area can be subjected to brutal winters and unpleasant weather. There’s a good chance your original floor mats are caked in road salt and mud- so it’s advisable to replace them every once in awhile with weather-appropriate ones. Less beat-up mats will look nice and also keep your floor protected.
- Get rid of dents and scratches: Has your car been battered around a little bit? Little dents and scratches here and there happen to everyone. There are a number of quick fixes for issues like that and it may pay off in the long run if you have an older car that may rust.
