- vacuum the interior;
- use a cleaning agent and a hard brush to clean the rugs. This must be done, of course, outside the car;
- while the rugs are drying, clean the floor in the same way. If it has greasy or other stains, apply the appropriate stain remover to them and wait for the time indicated in the instructions;
- wash the floor in small areas. As each area is cleared of dirt, dry it with a cloth. If this is not done, the moisture will be absorbed, and it will take much longer to dry it. For the same reason, try to use the minimum amount of cleaning products and water, do not flood the entire floor with them at once.
