Clean Small Often 

Every now and then, go through and pick up the pieces of trash, coins, and possessions that have found their way into your car. Keep a package of vehicle wipes in your cabin to clean up spills or gunk that’s collected on your dashboard and center console. The more you perform these small cleaning tasks when needed, the less often you’ll need to deep-clean your car.

Wax On

Once you wash away your Chevy’s blemishes, giving it a good waxing will keep it protected. Wax acts as an extra layer of armor for your vehicle, protecting it against salt, ultraviolet rays from the sun (which is why you should wax your vehicle before summer), bugs, and more. Wax keeps your paint looking new longer. It also makes your Chevy look glossy as if you just drove it off the dealership lot.

Clean the Seats

If you’re feeling up to more heavy-duty cleaning, tackle your Chevy’s seats. Whether you had a summer busy with exploration and fun or you have just let your seats go without a pick-me-up for a year or two, cleaning your seats is one of the best ways to feel like you’re driving a new car.

There are multiple ways to clean your seats and the methods for doing so depend on whether you have cloth or leather upholstery. Generally, you’ll start by vacuuming up the collected dirt and trash from all the nooks and crannies in your seats. Use wipes for leather seats and a cleaner and brush for cloth seats. The dirtier your seats, the more complex this process might be, but getting it done is one of the most satisfying vehicle maintenance tasks you can perform.

Following these tips will keep your car looking better for longer as you enjoy the warmer weather. Implement these cleaning tasks into your seasonal vehicle maintenance schedule to keep your Chevy looking like new.
