Order of work

Blow dust out of vents, seat rails and door pockets first, then vacuum the floor where it lands. Finish by wiping surfaces.

Work top to bottom

Dust falls, so start with the headliner area, vents and dashboard, then seats, then carpets. Finish with a vacuum to collect everything that's been blown down.

Hard-to-reach spots

  • Air vents and the louvers between them
  • Seat rails and the gap beside the console
  • Cupholders and door pockets
  • Under the seats
  • Trunk corners and spare-wheel well

Common mistakes

Blowing with the doors closed traps dust inside — open all doors. Don't blow into the HVAC system at full power for long. And vacuum last, not first.

Frequently asked questions

Should I vacuum first or blow first?

Blow first, then vacuum the dust that settles.

Can I do this with the engine running?

Turn the car off for safety.

Does it clean the air conditioning?

It clears dust from the vent openings. It doesn't clean inside the HVAC system or replace the cabin filter.

How often should I clean car vents?

Every month or two keeps dust from building up, more often with pets.
