Did you buy a used car? These cleaning mistakes can be costly

A report highlights the importance of thoroughly cleaning key areas in a used car to prevent unpleasant odors and dirt accumulation.

The article discusses common cleaning oversights when purchasing a used vehicle, as emphasized by Ugnė Debeikienė from Longo LT's preparation center. She points out that all interior spaces are essential in a car, such as the steering wheel, gear lever, and seat belts, which are frequently touched by drivers and passengers, thus necessitating cleanliness. These areas are often neglected yet are critical for maintaining hygiene and comfort in the vehicle.

Sources of significant dirt tend to be the lowest areas in the car, including carpets, under seats, and in the pockets of door panels, where residues such as drink spills may be left uncleaned. These forgotten remnants can lead to unpleasant odors over time, affecting the overall driving experience. Proper attention to these details can help maintain the vehicle's value and ensure a more pleasant atmosphere for those inside.

For those looking to clean their cars effectively, the report suggests using basic cleaning supplies such as a vacuum cleaner, microfiber cloths, and specialized liquids. However, for a deeper clean, it may be worth investing time or hiring professional services to address these critical cleaning areas. A thorough cleaning can prolong the vehicle's lifespan and enhance satisfaction for used car buyers, emphasizing the importance of maintaining cleanliness in every detail of the vehicle's interior.
