For some, maintaining a car comes down to visiting specialists and workshops of any kind with a “chunk” of money in your pocket. For most drivers, any opportunity to seriously save their own time and money is valuable.
The aesthetics of any car, even one purchased with zero mileage, are greatly degraded simply by constant use. For a car purchased on the secondary market, this issue can be even worse. What can I say: even just dust settling on the plastic of the interior can really spoil the mood of a neat car owner. Rush to the car wash and clean the interior? And if the finish is already worn in some places and has noticeably faded during use, what then? Do we fall into depression because of hopelessness?
Of course not. There is a simple and virtually free way to radically renew the look and condition of your interior. For this we need something like a non-woven napkin or a clean, dry cloth. And banal glycerin will be a miraculous means of refreshing the inside of a car. A 25 ml bottle of glycerol (this substance is sold under the name “glycerin”) costs from 15 to 50 rubles, depending on the greed of the owner of a particular pharmacy chain.
Moisten a previously prepared cloth with it and wipe the plastic panels. There is no need to cover them with glycerin. On the contrary, you should minimize its amount as much as possible, the layer should be thin. The substance fills the micro-irregularities of the plastic, making the surface look smooth and fresh again. Not forever of course, but certainly enough for a week.
A much more durable and noticeable effect is achieved by treating leather interiors with glycerin. Even though it shows no signs of wear, scuffs and other annoying things. The fact is that a large number of cosmetics for body care were created on the basis of this substance and are continuously created to this day.
The moisturizing and softening properties of glycerin are also in great demand in the processing of leather products. Including car seat cover. Periodic “passing” of chairs and sofas in the interior, if this does not prevent this, the moment of cracking the finish is postponed for a long time. Well, the appearance improves. Especially if there are abrasions, scratches and similar damage.
Some people also recommend treating the ‘rubber bands’ of windshield wipers with glycerin. To make them more elastic – to increase the efficiency of removing water from the “lobovuha”. This advice is questionable because the oiliness of glycerin can be detrimental to visibility.
But it is even recommended to wipe the side mirrors with a thin layer of this liquid before muddy or simply damp weather. A thin glycerol film prevents drops of dirty water from remaining on the surface of the mirror. They roll off quickly without obstructing your view.
