In our ambulances we just wipe everything down with sani-wipes. So far hasn’t affected the leather seats or plastics/vinyl. Afterward I’d highly suggest using a conditioner tho if you have leather or the soft-tex seats

I like to keep my car clean. Take an interior car cleaner wipe and wipe down your steering wheel. You’d be shocked at how it turned from white to brown. Maybe not all germs, but dirt. Just don’t do it every day 😶or we would have to worry about you! I was given a rental car once, and I could feel the stickiness on the seat leather and wheel. Used a whole can of those wipes and they went from white to black. Grossed me out.

I keep some basic sanitizing wipes… but I generally never do it on my own car.

Same here. I use the wipes at stores to do the cart handle too. My logic is that if it saves me one cold or flu infection a year, it's well worth it.

I keep the Walmart brand of Wet Ones-type wipes in the door panel bottle holder. The round plastic container is a perfect fit. Those wipes are handy for disinfecting interior surfaces and for wiping our hands before eating in the car.

I was thinking of driving through a touchless carwash with all 5 windows down, but it would miss some hard to reach spots...sooo back to the drawing board.
If you flail around in a full bunny costume during you original plan, i think you will be golden!

I'm not a germaphobe but my wife doesn't like the thought of bringing traces of the hospital with her so I clean everything with Spray-Nine. Then I follow with either Chemical Guys or Griots interior cleaner for the dash and plastics and leather cleaner and conditioner for the seats. It might be extreme but so far I haven't had any issues.

Inbetween cleans, like everyone else, I've used Clorox wipes, isopropyl alcohol and baby wipes. The latter being the most frequent item I use thanks to the little mess monster I have riding in the car. I keep a bottle of hand sanitizer, Spray-Nine, Clorox wipes and isopropyl in the car for emergencies. Perhaps its overkill on my part.

So, supposedly ozone can damage rubber wiring insulation and leather. Likely that concern is more realistic for large industrial units than small consumer models, but be warned.

Me? I use ozone sparingly but occasionally in the car. More for smell mitigation than cleaning. Been very handy during COVID to have an ozone generator.
