3 Signs You May Need a Seats-Out Interior Detail

What does it mean to get a 'seats-out' detail?

Here at Lumos Auto Club located in Camden, South Carolina, When it comes to maintaining your vehicle, there’s a world of difference between a standard car wash and wipe down and our thorough interior detailing packages. Ranging from Level 1,2 and 3 Signature packages for various levels of 'clean' amongst those detailing options, one method stands out for its meticulous approach: Level 3 Signature Detail with the seats-out interior option. When you receive a seats-out detail included in our Level 3 Signature detail at Lumos Auto Club we remove the vehicle's seats completely, to clean every nook and cranny of your vehicle. That may sound like a daunting task, but the benefits are well worth the effort. Here’s why opting for a seats-out interior detail could be the best decision you make for your car and what situations likely require a seats-out detail.

3 SIGNS YOU SHOULD ASK FOR A SEATS-OUT DETAIL:

• YOU HAVE KIDS: The original gremlins, no water needed. Kids are adorable, fun tornados. Having kids in your vehicle increases the chance you have eight-year-old McDonalds french fries wedged and cemented under your seats by 100%. Food is obviously the most pressing concern for stains and odors but other potential hazards of kids in vehicles are small toys that can lodge in seat tracks and one day cause some damage or malfunction of your seats adjustment settings. Finally, germs. All the germs. Kids at the playground, daycare or school are carrying germs into your vehicle and when you do that quarterly deep-clean because the whole family came down with the flu, don't forget to call Lumos Auto Club and get that Signature 3 Interior package so the vehicle is hot water shampooed, seats out scoured, spotless clean and polished ready for your next ride.

• YOU HAVE PETS: We hate to be the one to tell you this but 'pet dander' is just a silly little term for dead skin. Pet dander is dead skin. Even worse, it's skin that's bonded to or covered in proteins from saliva, urine, and feces. Sorry. For this reason pet dander is classifed as both an allergen and an irritant. Just as you wash your sheets, pillows and couch cushions for that reason, you shouldn't forget your vehicle. Regardless of the breed, long hair, short hair, dead skin flakes off of every animal, all the time. When you vacuum your vehicle if you aren't removing the seats you're kicking up dander particles making them airborne again. This dander dust is one of the most common allergens we know of. Anyone with asthma, respiratory issues, allergies, skin conditions like eczema or dermatitis will suffer the wrath of dander dust if it's not tended to.

• YOU USE YOUR VEHICLE FOR WORK OR TRAVEL: If you're the man or woman who often says 'sorry it's such a mess in here, I practically live in my car/truck' Congratulations, you're entitled to book a Signature 3 Interior detail for yourself. (With seats-out cleaning) Don't believe us? Some simple questions can illuminate this for us, are you blue-collar? Yes? Okay, have you seen your boots lately? We thought so. Are you a woman with a corporate or office job? Yes? Do you do your makeup in the car? Exactly. With traffic, appointments, school drop off, lunch breaks, grocery runs you already spend a lot of time in your vehicle. However, if you use your vehicle for travel, have a job that requires a lot of driving, or use it as a dedicated work vehicle there is a need to clean the inside of your vehicle more thorough than the average Joe to maintain your health and mental clarity.

With dust, pet dander and pet hair, moldy or decomposing foods and many other 'unknowns' gathering under your seats for weeks or sometimes months at a time, you can bet you'll see some side effects to the air quality and odor of your vehicle.
