Follow These Tips to Start the Year With a Well-Maintained Car
New year, same car—but it doesn’t have to be the same mess. If your ride took a beating over the past few months, now’s the time to reset. Whether you're commuting daily or taking long weekend drives, these tips will help you start the year with a vehicle that looks, feels, and functions better.
1. Get a Full Detail, Not Just a Wash
Let’s stop pretending a drive-thru wash counts. If you want your car looking brand new, book a proper detail. That means deep-cleaning the interior, restoring the paint, polishing, waxing, and conditioning the surfaces that matter.
A full detail gets rid of grime, salt, stains, and odors that built up over the holidays—and sets the tone for keeping it clean all year.
2. Check and Clean the Interior
You spend more time inside your car than looking at it. Clean it like you live in it:
Vacuum every surface, including under seats and floor mats.
Wipe down touchpoints (steering wheel, gear shift, door handles).
Get rid of trash and useless junk you’ve been ignoring since October.
Use an interior protectant on your dash and door panels to reduce UV damage.
Better yet? Let pros do it right the first time.
3. Treat the Leather or Upholstery
Leather cracking? Seats looking dull? That’s because you're not conditioning them. Start the year with clean, protected upholstery. Whether you’ve got cloth, leather, or vinyl—clean it, sanitize it, and protect it. Future you will thank you.
4. Inspect Your Tires and Clean the Wheels
Tires are filthy, and dirty wheels ruin the look of an otherwise clean car. Scrub off brake dust and road grime, then finish with a high-quality tire shine. While you're down there, check your tread and pressure. Good-looking tires mean nothing if they’re unsafe.
5. Clear the Glass, Inside and Out
Foggy windshields and streaky windows scream laziness. Clean them with proper automotive glass cleaner and microfiber towels—no ammonia-based garbage that eats tint. Pro tip: wipe the inside in vertical strokes and the outside in horizontal strokes. You'll know exactly where the streaks are (and how to eliminate them).
6. Commit to a Maintenance Schedule
The best way to keep your car clean is to stop letting it get filthy in the first place. Whether you set reminders or book monthly details in advance, having a recurring schedule means no buildup, no stress, and no embarrassment when someone else gets in your car.
