We’ve reached that time of year when the weather is still very unpredictable making it seem to be too early to be embarking on a full scale spring cleaning regime. But, we’ve also reached that point when the mixture of snow (plus grit and salt), rain and mud are really starting to take their toll on the interior of our cars. When you have a dog getting in and out of the car too, there tends to be even more mud and other debris brought into the vehicle. If your car is starting to look a little unloved but the weather is too awful to get outside and give its interior the care it deserves, help is at hand. Few people want to spend huge amounts of time cleaning the car’s interior. If you stay on top of the basics, you won’t have to spend vast amounts of time detailing the car. There are 3 affordable car accessories that you could consider – all easily installed in a matter of minutes and all that give an instant upgrade to the car’s interior… and help it stay that way.
Rubber car mats designed for your specific car
When your car’s footwells have muddy boots or wet shoes stomped on them on even one journey, they get dirty. By the end of a whole season without adequate protection, they become downright filthy. It can take longer than you might think for the carpeting in this area to dry, so the car can quickly develop a musty smell to add to the grubby appearance. Some footwells get so wet that a dehumidifier is required in the car to sufficiently remove this excess moisture. But you don’t need to get to that stage. A very easy solution is to add vehicle-specific rubber car mats. Choosing a car mat that fits to your specific vehicle is important, as it means you get the right fit for your car’s footwells, with no awkward gaps where dirt and debris could sneak through. Travall has a particularly good range, which offers the perfect fit for each make and model of car – so no awkward gaps with these. The lipped edge gives even greater protection by keeping rainwater or spilled liquids on the mat. Even better they come with fixings as appropriate for the vehicle, so they stay securely in position. Unlike some lesser quality variants on the market, the Travall version doesn’t have a strong rubber smell, so your car has a pleasant aroma from the start. Travall Mats are easily cleaned with just a wipe over with a cloth, or can be hosed off when a deeper cleanse is required.
Plush carpet mats designed for your specific car
For some a car doesn’t feel quite right unless it has some of the comforts of home on board. An easy way to add comfort but protecting the footwells at the same time is with a premium quality carpet mat that is designed to fit the contours of your car’s footwells. Travall offers a particularly good variant in the form of Travall Urban Mats. Each mat fits your car to perfection and is secured in place (depending on the make and model of your car) so it won’t slip under foot. The mats are made from an ultra dense velour, so when you step into the car you immediately know that these are no average car mats. Cleaning is easily achieved by vacuuming the debris, just as you would with a carpet at home. Liquid spills are contained on the mat and the mats can be removed and cleaned with a damp cloth, or given a more intensive clean with a power washer if necessary.
Premium cargo mat for your car’s boot
If you drive an estate or a hatchback, your boot is an extension of your cabin interior. So if your milk carton leaks on the way home from the supermarket, or the lining of the boot gets wet from your wet gear after a rainy hike, you’re going to start smelling those “off” odours in the car itself. A very simple solution comes in the form of a lipped, rubber cargo mat. This lines the floor of the boot and allows you to clean the boot easily no matter what debris lands on the mat. The Travall CargoMat is a great option, as when unfurled and laid in the boot in just a minute, you then have years of durability from this quiet but hardworking car accessory.
