Cleaning Vehicles with Vinegar...

White distilled vinegar is not just for salads anymore! It's also an ideal "green" household and laundry "green" cleaning product.

But don't stop there... use it in your garage (and workshop, too). (Note: vinegar is absolutely safe to use on tools and vehicles!)

Check out all the different ways you can use it to clean your vehicles...

  • Keep car windows frost-free overnight in winter by coating them with a solution of 3 parts white distilled vinegar to 1 part water.
     
  • Polish car chrome with full-strength white distilled vinegar on a soft cloth.
     
  • Remove unwanted decals and bumper stickers by covering them with a cloth soaked in white distilled vinegar, or by repeatedly spraying them with full-strength white distilled vinegar. They should peel off in a couple of hours.
     
  • Rid the windshield wipers of road grime by wiping them with a white distilled vinegar-soaked cloth.
     
  • Remove the leftover odor after a rider has been carsick by leaving a bowl of white distilled vinegar overnight on the floor.
     
  • Wipe vinyl upholstery with a mixture of equal parts white distilled vinegar and water.
     
  • Get rid of hard water stains on your car with a rinse made from 3 parts soft water to one part white distilled vinegar.
     
  • Remove winter road salt residue on car carpeting by spraying with a mixture of equal parts white distilled vinegar and water, then blot with a soft towel.
     
  • Remove the hazy film that builds up on inside windows by spraying with white distilled vinegar.
     
  • Remove dirt and stains from car carpeting with a mixture of half white distilled vinegar and half water.
     
  • When doing car maintenance, soak rusty bolts and screws with white distilled vinegar to make them easier to remove.
     
  • Create an all-purpose window cleaner with a few ounces of white distilled vinegar in a quart of water.
     
  • Loosen chewing gum stuck to carpeting or upholstery by soaking it in white distilled vinegar.
     
  • Give leather upholstery an extra shine by cleaning it with hot white distilled vinegar and rinsing with soapy water.
