Road Trip Essentials

Summer is official road trip season, which means you’ll want to stop by our car detail shop on Mira Mesa Blvd. to make sure your car is looking its best before you hit the road.

Sure, good music and good snacks are essentials, but there are a few other things you’ll want to bring along to make the most of your road trip:

• An A/C adapter for your laptop (available for under $30). This might be a good investment if you want to watch movies, play solitaire or even edit photos (so you can post on Facebook mid-trip!) on the road.

• A portable GPS. A portable GPS can help you find your next road stop and satisfy your food cravings while on the road. Plus, an old school map might be outdated and getting lost is not fun.

• Speaking of food, get access to eateries of all types using the mobile Yelp app on your cell phone browser. Craving Mexican food? Find the closest spot serving up burritos. Have a sweet tooth? Find the nearest ice cream shop.

• Think beyond music. Even if you create the ultimate summer playlist, you will get tired of your music. I promise. Add some podcasts, audiobooks and comedy tracks into the mix to combat boredom. You can thank us later.

Welcome!

Welcome to the official blog for Sorrento Mesa Auto Spa, where you’ll find car cleaning tips and tricks for keeping your car in prime condition, coupons for our services and more.

Our auto detailing prices can’t be beat, and we are constantly offering coupons on car detailing and other services, but from time to time you need to speed clean the interior of your car. I know what you’re thinking, there are a million things you’d rather do than clean out this inside of your car, but read these tips and you’ll get the job done in no time.

Gather car-cleaning wipes, a few garbage bags, a flat-head screwdriver, glass cleaner, paper towels, a hand vacuum and a bin and get started:

1.       First, take anything out of your car that isn’t supposed to be there, like that bowl from when you were running late to work and ate breakfast en route. Throw away any trash as well.

2.       Using the glass cleaner, spray the cup holders.

3.       Use the wipes to clean the dashboard, inside door pockets, gearshift, steering wheel, center console and leather seats. Wipe out the cup holders with paper towel.

4.       Take a wipe and wrap it around the end of the screwdriver. Run it along switches and buttons on the dash.

5.       Clean the windows, sunroof, windshield, sunroof and rear windows with glass cleaner and paper towels.

6.       Take your floor mats out of your car and beat them together outside to get rid of any dirt and trash. Then vacuum the floor mats and foot wells.

7.       After replacing the mats, let your car air out and you are all done!
