Cleaning your vehicle with household products

What household products can I use to clean my vehicle?
With lockdown slowly beginning to ease, its still important that we keep our vehicles clean and disinfected.
There aren’t many anti-bacterial/viral products available to the consumer that are dedicated to vehicle care, so you’ll be relying mainly on household cleaners and you will need to be careful with the products that you use.
You’ll need to use alcohol-based products for greatest efficiency, and ones with at least a 60 per cent alcohol content specifically.
It would be worth testing the product on a small part of the vehicle to be 100% certain that it won’t damage the paintwork.
