Mold in a car is a common thing, because every car in its life experiences this unpleasant fungus on itself. However, you can get rid of the source of trouble if preventive measures are taken in time.
Instructions
Step 1
Examine your car carefully for damp spots, as moisture is the main cause of mold formation. Check floor mats, trunk liner and cab floor. If these stains persist over time, then try replacing the seals. Also, the restoration of standard holes in the car, if they were closed, will help to improve this situation.
Step 2
Use a fabric that wicks moisture well. When replacing carpets and passenger compartment seats, thoroughly wipe and degrease the surface. Vacuum the surface until the damp area is dry. When changing the upholstery, use a material that has a good protective effect.
Step 3
Spray the antifungal agent on damp surfaces to prevent mold growth. Also, get a variety of flavors to get rid of the unpleasant odors that mold and mildew produces. Remember that it is better to buy such products that do not mask the smell, namely, eliminate it.
Step 4
Turn on the air conditioner and carefully smell the air that comes out of it. If it gives off a moldy smell, then most likely the fungus has settled inside, which is a problem situation. You will have to try very hard to get rid of it. If you are not confident in your abilities, then it is better to entrust the matter to the specialists in the car service. Try to turn on the air conditioner while the windows and doors are wide open. The moldy smell can disappear, and if not, then a visit to a professional can not be avoided.
Step 5
Try to wash your car thoroughly and dry it thoroughly after driving in the rain. Make it a rule to remove all moisture after cleaning the rugs and the interior, as well as use special products that not only get rid of mold, but also prevent it.
