Regular Vacuuming 

Dust and debris can accumulate quickly, especially on the floor mats and seats. Regularly vacuuming these areas will help keep your interior clean. Use a soft brush attachment to gently vacuum the dashboard, console, and other delicate surfaces. 

Leather Care 

Lexus vehicles often feature premium leather interiors. To maintain the suppleness and appearance of the leather, it’s important to clean and condition it regularly. Use a high-quality leather cleaner to remove dirt and oils, and follow up with a leather conditioner to keep the material soft and prevent cracking.

Cleaning Upholstery 

For vehicles with fabric upholstery, use an upholstery cleaner to tackle stains and spills. Blot, don’t rub, to avoid damaging the fabric. For tougher stains, consider using a steam cleaner for a deeper clean.

Dashboard and Console 

Dust and fingerprints can quickly accumulate on the dashboard and console. Use a microfiber cloth and a mild cleaner to wipe these surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the material or cause discoloration.

Windows and Mirrors 

Clean windows and mirrors are essential for safe driving. Use a glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth to achieve a streak-free shine. Make sure to clean the inside of the windows as well, as this is often overlooked. 

Regular Inspections 

Regularly inspect your interior for signs of wear and tear. Addressing small issues promptly can prevent them from becoming bigger problems. Replace worn floor mats and repair any upholstery tears or scratches as soon as possible.
