Removing Pet Hair and More From Your Car

The DC Metro area is full of pet friendly areas: Parks, restaurants, walking trails and more. We love driving our pets around to the best locations and letting them run free. Unfortunately (and especially with the hot weather and shedding), that also means ending up with pet hair in our car's interior - it's a small price to pay for the happiness of our pets!

So how does one remove this accumulation of hair?

Do-It-Yourself

Hair differs from stains and crumbs because the hair itself can weave in-between the upholstery fabric, making it more stubborn to remove. In addition, the longer the pet hair remains on the seats and carpets, the more embedded it becomes - not to mention the odor that may be associated with it. There are two options for removing hair: do it yourself, or have a professional auto detailer take care of it. If you are planning to do it yourself, just remember that patience is key.

One of the main problems with pet hair is static cling. To help alleviate this cling, use a wet cloth to wipe down the seats and carpets - this helps in loosening up remaining hair. Next, use a lint roller, hard wire brush, or even a fabric sheet! After removing a large majority of the hair, a simple vacuum can help remove any excess dog or pet hair.

Using A Professional Like Capitol Shine

Depending on how long the hair has been in the car, it could go deeper into the seats and carpets and therefore cannot be removed with the simple steps above.
