Around the world, countries and citizens are taking cautionary actions to stop the spread of Coronavirus. Maintaining proper hygiene is vital as keeping everything clean helps prevent the virus from spreading. This includes maintaining proper hygiene within your car.

DubiCars is here to help with advice and tips on how to sanitize and disinfect your car.

How to sanitize your car with a professional service

To support the UAE Government and car owners, Al Masaood Tyres, Batteries and Accessories announced a service where you can sanitize your car for free.

Car owners can take their vehicle to AutoServ Car Care Centre at the Sea Palace area in Abu Dhabi where their car will be disinfected and cleaned.

“We are offering a free car sanitization service to all our customers in line with our keenness to support the government’s efforts to protecting our nation,” Salah Adib, General Manager at Al Masaood TBA Division, said.

The exceptional free service includes sterilization of all surfaces inside your car. Thoroughly deep cleaned, the service removes all traces of bacteria, germs and dirt that may stick to surfaces.

“We have worked closely with the authorities to promote road safety and protect the wellbeing of citizens and residents through a multitude of campaigns,” Salah continued.

This new initiative comes as part of the ‘Wiqaya’ campaign, which was launched by Al Masaood Group. Spanning across all its divisions and service centres, Wiqaya helps the implementation of precautionary and preventative measures aimed at protecting the health and safety of customers.

It also spreads to cover employees by following the highest standards, recommended by the government.

“Our commitment to support the government in any way that preserves community welfare is restless, and represents a fundamental value of Al Masaood Group,” Salah explained further.

How to disinfect your car at home

Alternatively, you can disinfect your car yourself at home.

Things you need to disinfect your car at home

Keeping your car clean is relatively easy and soap is your best friend when it comes to tackling the job. Any household soap will do, provided it is in liquid form.

In addition, you will need:
• Disposable gloves.
• A cloth that doesn’t scratch, such as microfibre.
• Bleach-free wipes.
• Hand sanitizer.

Step-by-step guide to disinfecting your car at home

  1. When cleaning your car, always wear disposable gloves. Before you do anything else, put these on.
  2. Lather the soap into the car with the cloth and warm water.
  3. Scrub the surface area for at least 20 seconds before drying in order for the soap to do its job.

Top tips for disinfecting your car at home like a professional:

• Soap with 70% alcohol is easily accessible and can fight Coronavirus.
• Don’t use bleach on your vehicle as it can cause damage. In particular, using bleach-based products can cause severe damage to your electronics, so under no circumstances should you use them to clean your infotainment system or steering wheel. Instead, to clean these items use bleach-free wipes and ensure that whoever is using the system has clean hands.
• Don’t use solvents.
• Don’t use hand sanitizer on leather surfaces as it can cause the leather to dry out and crack.
• Wipe off anything you wipe on in order not to leave stains.
• Prioritise the surfaces you use the most; door handles, steering wheel, seatbelts, gear selector and infotainment system.
• Use 70% alcohol as it is effective in fighting Covid-19.

Tips for selling a car safely

Since people are trying to avoid public transport, there’s an increase in the number of people looking to buy a car. If you are planning to sell your car, now might be the right time to do so! Just make sure to bear in mind our top tips for selling your car safely during the pandemic:
• Use every public venue with caution, regardless of how clean and tidy it looks. This includes car dealerships as well as garages.
• Disinfect the entire vehicle, inside-and-out, before handing it over.
• Do not shy away from taking your car to the repair shop in case it needs fixing.
