Carfidant

Whether it’s from eating lunch on the go or just daily dirt, the inside of your car gets dirty. We’ve checked out the best car interior cleaners for cleaning up the inside of your car so it looks as good as new again.

You’ll be surprised how quickly dirt and dust accumulate in your car. Even if you never eat in it or taking it off-roading, daily use leads to a slow accumulation of dust and grime on everything. Each part of your car needs a different approach too—from wiping plastic dashboards to cleaning up leather or cloth seats. And let’s not forget the carpet, or the fact that your GPS loves to collect fingerprints.

Besides the products here, we strongly recommend you check out our general look at car cleaning implements. Microfiber cloths and detail brushes, in particular, are great for helping you tidy up in the interior of your car.

Here’s a look at all our favorite car interior cleaners.

Best All-Round Cleaner: Carfidant Ultimate Interior Cleaner ($17)

Bottle of Carfidant Ultimate Cleaner with a white microfiber cloth — Carfidant

A one size fits all style interior cleaner is a good starting point. Even more so if you’re not too bothered about using multiple different cleaners on your car interior. This Carfidant Ultimate Interior Cleaner does a little bit of everything well. Simply spray it onto a microfiber cloth, and you can use it to clean leather or cloth seats, carpets, mats, upholsteries, dashboards, vinyl, and plastic. It’s that versatile.

There’s no heavy scents and impressively it’s gentle enough to be safe on painted surfaces. It’ll still do a tough job on clearing dirt though and you’ll get a lot of mileage out of it.

Best Carpet Cleaner: Chemical Guys Foaming Citrus Fabric Clean and Upholstery Shampoo ($10)

Carpets in cars have to withstand a fair amount of stress. You might not be walking around on it, but the constant movement of your feet as you move between pedals is sure to have an effect on the carpet. Throw in the fact you’re constantly bringing in dirt from the outside, and you need a good carpet cleaner. The Chemical Guys Foaming Citrus Fabric Clean and Upholstery Shampoo is a good bet.

Its high-sudsing foaming action lifts dirt and stains easily with a stain remover that breaks down set-in stains. It smells pretty nice too so it’ll easily override any nasty odors left over. As the name suggests, it doubles as an upholstery cleaner too so it’s safe to use to clean your seats.
