We all have a little collection of dust and junk in our car that we’re not that proud of. In our fast-paced society, sometimes it’s just not that easy to find time to give our vehicles the maintenance it needs. However, with this ongoing pandemic, it’s become clear that we need to take steps to properly disinfect and clean our cars to prevent infection and disease from affecting us and our loved ones.
If it’s been months since you last cleaned your car, don’t worry. We at Patterson Towing LLC, your trusted provider of Towing Services in Centreville, Illinois, are going to help you stay on top of your health with these infection prevention tips for drivers.
- Tip 1: Wash your hands before and after driving.
You’ve probably heard this a million times, but it’s still worth mentioning. We use our hands for a variety of activities, sometimes while handling dirty surfaces/items. By washing our hands, we rid ourselves of harmful disease-causing germs and bacteria.
- Tip 2: Disinfect all surfaces in your cabin.
Get some disinfectant wipes and wipe down all the surfaces inside the car. Essentially, what we want to do is clean anything that we or our family are likely to touch. Make sure to be thorough with the steering wheel.
- Tip 3: Use soapy water for leather surfaces.
While isopropyl alcohol is a great disinfectant, its stain removal quality means it can damage real leather. We should stick to a solution of soap and water for leather interiors, gently rubbing down the surfaces to remove bacteria.
