Simple Summer Car Cleanup Ideas With The Right Automotive Accessories

Now that we are out of the wild Midwest winters up here, it is time to pull off the car covers and get cracking on cleaning up our beautiful rides. No better way to make your cars and trucks look better than to pick out some great, but cheap automotive accessories.

Car and Truck Floor Mats

One of the easiest ways to make your car, or truck look great, and hide those nasty stains on the floor is to pick up some new car floor mats. Sure, a traditional, cheap floor mat may be what you usually buy, but why not look into something more exquisite? Custom-fit sheepskin floor mats for your Mercedes, or even a great "catch all" style floor mat that covers the entire floor of your vehicle.

You would be amazed how well a floor mat can hide driving disasters. I can't even tell you how many times I have spilled something that is never coming out. I am a big fan of any sort of red drink. Soda, juice, you name it. If I spill that stuff I have no other choice, but to cover it up until I can get a serious carpet cleaning, and even then it may not work.

Car and Truck Seat Covers

Another great way to keep your car looking fresh and clean is to don some new seat covers. Car seat covers can hide a lot of wear and tear in a vehicle. Those pesky coffee stains that you can't get out, those nasty gum stains that you probably couldn't get rid of with a blow torch, and of course they protect admirably against all types of pet stains and deep pet odors.

Unless you go for an extremely high end material seat cover, they traditionally are machine washable, and make it even easier to keep your car in top shape. When they inevitably get a bit dirty themselves, just pull them out and get them cleaned, and your car is perfect once again.

Now all you have to do is get your car detailed, cleaned, and waxed, and you can cruise the beaches in style. Just make sure that you clean your seats and floors before you put these things on ;).
