Flu season is here, and while we often focus on protecting ourselves at home and work, our vehicles are an extension of those spaces that can easily harbor germs and bacteria. A complete interior detailing not only keeps your car clean but also helps eliminate harmful contaminants, creating a safer environment for you and your passengers. At Ziebart, we take vehicle sanitation seriously, offering services like Germ Defender to provide extra protection during flu season and beyond.
The Importance of Auto Detailing During Flu Season
Your car is more than a means of transportation—it’s a shared space where germs can accumulate, especially during colder months when windows stay shut, and ventilation decreases. Steering wheels, door handles, seat belts, and other high-touch surfaces can harbor bacteria and viruses, increasing the risk of illness.
Interior auto detailing addresses these concerns by thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing every part of your vehicle, including the hidden nooks and crannies where contaminants like to hide.
What is Interior Detailing?
Interior auto detailing is a deep-cleaning process designed to restore and refresh your vehicle's interior. At Ziebart, we go beyond standard cleaning methods to eliminate dirt, grime, and harmful germs that could compromise your health and your car's longevity.
Here’s what a complete interior detailing involves:
Vacuuming and Shampooing: Removes dust, debris, and stains from carpets, floor mats, and upholstery.
Surface Cleaning: Cleans and conditions all interior surfaces, including dashboards, center consoles, and door panels.
The Role of Germ Defender in Vehicle Sanitation
For added protection during flu season, we recommend Ziebart’s Germ Defender. This specialized solution kills 99.9% of germs and bacteria on contact and continues to work long after application. Germ Defender is applied to all interior surfaces, creating an invisible shield that reduces the spread of harmful pathogens.
Why Choose Germ Defender?
Protecting Your Vehicle from Damage During Flu Season
While interior detailing keeps your car sanitary, it also protects your vehicle from long-term damage. Moisture, dirt, and salt tracked into your car can stain fabrics, corrode floorboards, and degrade upholstery over time. Regular detailing prevents these issues, helping you maintain your vehicle’s value and aesthetics.
Tips for Maintaining a Germ-Free Vehicle
Even with professional detailing, regular maintenance can keep your car cleaner and safer:
Sanitize High-Touch Areas: Use disinfecting wipes on steering wheels, door handles, and seat belts.
Vacuum Weekly: Remove dirt and debris from carpets and upholstery to prevent buildup.
Declutter Regularly: Keep your car free of unnecessary items where germs can linger.
Keep Hand Sanitizer Handy: Encourage passengers to sanitize their hands before entering your vehicle.
