. In car interior cleaning, the parts that deserve more attention are undoubtedly those that are most exposed to human contact: steering wheel, gearbox, handbrake, door handles, infotainment system, radio, armrest, rods on the steering column.
. After cleaning, leave the car doors or windows open, so that the surfaces can dry and the moisture can escape from the passenger compartment.
. Products are also available on the market for cleaning air conditioning ducts and car ventilation. These products do not guarantee the elimination of Covid-19, but they reduce the possibility of the virus remaining on the surfaces and pipes of the circuit.

. Products you should avoid: never use hydrogen peroxide (hydrogen peroxide), it will probably damage the surfaces of the car.
