Interior cleaner foam: application & tips

INTERIOR CLEANER FOAM

Before it starts

Caring for the interior of your car can quickly take on quite large dimensions. In this article, we would like to show you how to use the interior cleaner foam.

This product is the result of several months of hard work to develop a product that works on almost all surfaces in the interior and thus prevents you from having to start your interior care with a whole armada of products. When we say "almost all surfaces", it is because there are so many different materials in the interior and it is impossible to develop an efficient product that cleans all surfaces in the same (good and gentle) way. For example, we recommend our specially developed display cleaner for cleaning displays.  

 

Good reasons for our interior cleaner

 

HERRENFAHRT interior cleaner with odor removal

Let's start with a brief summary of why you made the right decision and can now call an interior cleaner your own, because the cleaner has strong properties, it...:

  • ...dissolves even stubborn dirt quickly and powerfully
  • ...works gently, even on sensitive surfaces
  • ...has odor absorption technology and removes odors
  • ...acts as an active foam deep into the pores 
  • ...leaves no unwanted splashes because it has the consistency of shaving foam

To allow the interior cleaner to work as effectively as possible, we recommend combining it with our cleaning pad. If you don't have one to hand, work with a sponge, a not-too-hard brush or a short-pile microfiber cloth. 

 

How to use the interior cleaner

  1. Pump 3-4 portions of interior cleaner foam onto your pad or cleaning accessory of choice. 
  2. Work the cleaner in using circular movements and light pressure. Alternatively, you can also apply the foam directly to the stains and leave it to work in. This is particularly helpful for stubborn stains.
  3. Use the back of the pad or a short-pile microfiber cloth to wipe off the dirt and cleaner residue. 
  4. Leave the surface to dry completely for approx. 5-10 minutes. 
  5. Ready!

Professional tips for use

If you have used a little too much cleaner on fabric or Alcantara seats (it usually foams a little when you wipe it off), then take a damp cloth and wipe off the residue before removing it with a clean, dry cloth. 

For high-gloss surfaces (such as piano lacquer), make sure that your cloth is not too damp from the cleaner, otherwise streaks can quickly appear. 

Always have several microfiber cloths to hand when cleaning the interior. We recommend short-pile cloths in 9/10 cases. Short-pile means flat or, to put it another way, the cloth should not have long, fluffy fibers. The reason for this is that although these cloths absorb well, they do not provide the grip and abrasiveness we need to remove the cleaner and dirt from the surface.

For Alcantara surfaces:

Take care not to "rub" too hard and not too selectively. After using the cleaner, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and then wipe with a dry, clean cloth.
