Clean Car Hacks & Organizing Tips

[@muhammadsaad7638]

I would use a cleaner that was made for the material in your car. If you keep using the all purposes cleaner it might dry out the leather/rubber/vinyls and crack over time.

[@istiakahmad4727]

you are right.

[@susannahwoodham2395]

This is the cleanest "dirty" car haha

[@EmilieCardinal]

when you use oil based product on your dashboard and trims, the heat from the sun makes the plastic sort of evaporate and when there are already the synthetic oils in the plastic and you add more oils on top of that it will go on all the windows especially the windshield and will damage the interior over time :)

[@MegAngela7]

so what should we use instead? thank you!

[@blossermrbify]

Cupcake liners are a great addition for the cup holders. The liner will catch all those little balls of dirt, lint and what not. Then when it's time to clean again you simply replace the cupcake liner. Great video, thanks

[@aprilbeilfuss3751]

now i am motivated to clean the car i dont have! lol

[@gisellealvarado8476]

SAMEEE

[@tanashjasanders3594]

[@2pacshakur530]

April Beilfuss same lol !! My futur car will be perfect 😂😃

[@dhackettm]

love your picture ... I am cleaning mine today before we leave for Tampa to see the Hawks at the end of the month.

[@sydmadememad]

Use microfiber cloths instead of towels to prevent any scratches!!!!!!!

[@chromehornproductions7275]

Thank👏u👏

[@andrewm8831]

Use coconut oil to clean your car

[@Marmaleenie]

I'd love to see how this works on a dirty car.

[@lizscreamsrad]

😂😂

[@morbjrn5265]

Marleina M Spoiler alert it doesn't. I need an appointment with an auto detailer to get the nasty out of my poor second hand car.

[@keepyoureyes7505]

Just use super clean diluted

[@lmmbchampion]

I love how real you are, Rachel! You show us how life gets busy for EVERYONE and we don't have to be perfect but it's possible to tackle our mess & get organized--one task at a time:)

[@frankromeo3884]

I would never spray the electronics I would spray the rag first stuff can sit down inside of your buttons and ruin the controls

[@erinmarie27]

I'm totally going to clean my car tomorrow! For some reason I find videos like car cleaning or where they show you around the car fascinating!

[@Soapy955]

I just made the Pom Pom car air freshener with my son. We used a vanilla and a cinnamon fragrance oil instead of essential oils. My car is going to smell like cinnamon buns! 💕💕

[@Amanda-md2yy]

This is so satisfying to watch lol. I am one of those people that reallllllyyyyy appreciates a clean car. I hate dirty floormats and crumbs everywhere. Yay for cleanliness!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

These are great tips! You''re making me want to go and clean my car out. Thanks for sharing!

[@gracemonckton3699]

Motorcycle 90 who the hell?

[@SpicyChannelShoutOuts]

Great DIY spray and scent I would just spray the clothes pin the color of my interior so it matches more, loved it and I will do it for mine. Also you should consider getting a manual charger in case your battery dies, and a few cans of flat fix, and a funnel in case you run out of gas on the highway and have to get gas unless you have a membership to AAA.

[@MiciFee97]

first aid case and the safety triangle are bot things which are nice to have they are important. you cant drive without it. i know the us is not really responsible with those things but in germany where i live you have to have it. if the police stops you for a normal controll they will want to see it and if you dont have it you get a ticket

[@mysticfalls143]

MicisWelt d

[@melinadiaz2490]

That’s so cool!

[@ChibiSugar]

Yup! Also a safety hammer that is within arms reach is a necessity in Holland, you can get fined if you don’t have one. In case you get into an accident and you can’t get out. We take safety very serious..

[@KaleiLag]

Girl! I have yet to clean out my car from the sand from the Florida beaches! Lol! It's on my list! I've been de-cluttering closets and drawers haha!

[@courtt1980]

dont even bother till the weather gets cold LOL I know the struggle. Especially with it being rainy season too in FL, it just gets even more dirty haha

[@lizkingdesigns]

Love your tips. My one tip for you is to keep your umbrella in your glove compartment. If it's pouring you don't want to have to get out to go to the back of the car to retrieve it. Sort of defeats the purpose :)

[@nicholascroft520]

This is definitely a great guide on how to clean/organise your car. One tip I will add is make sure if you make your own cleaner that is has no silicones in it. That'll destroy your interior quicker than a 5 year old with a chocolate biscuit. Also after cleaning you'll have to use something to protect the plastic/leather/vinyl in the car otherwise they are a lot more prone to sun damage and cracking. High end vehicle cleaning and protecting products such as Bowden's Own and autoglym are great at this is don't tend to use harsh chemicals that may upset people with asthma or allergies. Just a helpful few tips :)

[@asantoyo07]

Watching your videos is the feeling of finishing a session of yoga. So relaxing lol

[@racheltalbott]

hahah That's the best compliment ever! haha thank you!

[@nicoleidowu4319]

I just used this product today and I am more than pleased with the results. The other ingredients balance out the oil so there is no residue. You could also just use less oil. Also, I sprayed the cleaner onto my microfiber cloth and wiped everything down. I wouldn't recommend spraying directly onto the surfaces.

[@SuperAMG11]

"Ying Yang" is not an essential oil. I think what you mean is "Ylang-Ylang"

[@rustlishkirashentik1511]

Melissa G lol ying yang

[@carlamurdoch8722]

Lang Lang is how it’s pronounced though 😝

[@marleyfintak8688]

Gahahahhagagagagaga

[@uniqueLeo08]

I chuckled

[@victoriakathleen01]

I was looking for this comment, haha

[@patriciaann9085]

My husband just cleaned our entire SUV today! I love the all natural cleaner you made! I need to try it.

[@veedubzmedia529]

As a car enthusiast myself I cringed so much watching this. Do not use oils to wash your interior. And paddle shifters on a Subaru. Just no

[@MzClementine]

Con T-B 🙌🏻💕💁🏻‍♀️😉

[@Hooverpixie24]

People use oils for everything. Like OMG. DO NOT USE IT ON THE CAR.

[@kaylawayla2022]

Omg thaaaaank you lol

[@C7vette9]

Whitney Bryant well it’s true on a car, don’t use oil it will crack and damage it from the sun.

[@MegAngela7]

@@C7vette9 so what should we use instead? thank you!

[@Lucy-ym4sf]

These videos motivate me so much, I honestly think that organised areas are so beautiful so this also brings me so much joy xxx

[@sobzk1]

Your videos are so calming to my OCD soul. Thank you!!

[@RMLeLoup]

I shared this to a local city group that I support / manage. Alot of great tips for safety and better driver solutions to be proactive and supportive. :)

[@Sailorgirl1207]

My family's dirty car makes your dirty car look like a day spa! xD

[@mayam7608]

I just got my first car today. It's a 2006 Highlander. It had a bunch of dings on the outside but since it's my first car, I don't care it's al fixable. The inside on the other hand is in great condition raises the fact that is was overall dirty. This vid gave me a bunch of ideas of how to customize my car and clean it!

[@ivankachia619]

grocery bags are also important in cars as my mom sometimes forget to bring when she goes grocery shopping

[@DLM440]

your channel is by far my favourite. i love how much effort you put in and how much detail you go into. thanks :)

[@ZzzRoofus]

Why do you add oil to a cleaner? Isn't it going to leave a residue that just attracts more dirt?

[@Sim2Real.]

Adam S not only that, YOU should never put oily substances on they steering wheel, pedals, or shift knob

[@ZzzRoofus]

Alberto Pettine I know that's why I don't.

[@rustlishkirashentik1511]

Adam S never use oil in you car you will ruin it

[@nivennaidoo6358]

apparently it helps make the car "Pretty"

[@SuperSheys]

I thought oil drys out and makes the dash crack? Just asking!

[@monikavilardo2290]

I adore your videos! I cannot believe I just discovered your channel. watching them nonstop for the last two days

[@zizzybubbles101]

My car is like a moving trash can lol. I'm going on a road trip soon, so I'll be cleaning it! Loved the video :)

[@carolleatkinson4307]

definitely thought it was more cluttered than dirty since it was so easy to just pick up trash, lightly vacuum and you were done. It looks way cleaner at the end than when im finished. Also I LOVE your car, jealous!

[@thejojojo1111]

Hi Rachel! :) which brand and model is the vacuum?

[@anupamkakkar]

That was really nice! It never came to my mind I could actually install any fragrance I like in such an innovative method. Thanks for sharing it!

[@MsSimplyDiana]

What vacuum cleaner did you use with the brush attachment to clean the car? Thanks!

This video really got me going on cleaning my car,and boy it needed cleaning. Thanks a lot for the tips on the DIY cleaner and freshener.

[@DoctorAnne]

I wonder how long it stays that nice. Whenever I make an effort to clean mine I feel like it is as chaotic as it was before within two days.

[@racheltalbott]

haha.. I feel you!! lol

[@ashleygleason3448]

completely agree. I have to clean mine every week

[@Rachel26172]

Love your videos so much! I always clean out my car weekly and I've been looking for a few extra tips and your video showed in my feed! Amazing video as always!

[@kariiX0XO]

I liked the brush on ur vaccume hose. what vaccume do u have?

[@wearitwithpassion]

I'm so lucky that my husband is obsessed with clean car! He cleans mine every month because I tend to accumulate a lot of stuff from work. Love the tips!

[@neyomalgunathilaka7390]

You should not spray those liquid to the buttons on the stearing wheel as it can go inside and damage the circuit inside. Wet the cloth and do the cleaning should be the way...

[@suresurebaby]

Awesome video Rachel! thanks for the tips, I will definitely be trying them out myself!

[@allywilliams9338]

I motivated to go clean my car now but I just bought a new car so it's already clean😂

[@sailorgrlie]

You could go make it smell good with essential oils, and get an organizer in your trunk with a blanket and first aid kit, lol.

[@blackbird5381]

+Nichole D haha which means you always have something to do instead of jst staying in bed and thinking abt your stupid ex-boyfriend !!

[@danlol9936]

Hahaha trash it in purpose and clean it. That’s something i would do hahaha

[@ivyrodriguez198]

First and foremost thank you for inspiring me in staying organized and being my minimalist self also thank your hubby for getting me back in the kitchen. You two are amazing. Much love 💙

[@JoJo-rp1uc]

Your wedding rings are beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@sanjanachilukuri9687]

i love your car charm! where did you get it from :)

[@racheltalbott]

[@cloverclover7638]

Rachel Talbott Wow how ambiguous!

[@kduran2687]

yay!! I was so excited when I saw the title for this video. definitely waited for this topic for a while. thank you for your tips. I'm a big fan of yours. ;)

[@NenaNenaNenaNenaNena]

I'm surprised you drive a pleasantly surprised that you drive a Subaru, being that most youtubers try to be extra flashy/fancy with Mercedes and Bmw.

[@ji-fc1hq]

Why surprised!! Rachel is not that type of person who would show off she one of the nicest people I've seen!!lol

[@erinmarie27]

I love Subaru! I want to get one some day! Rachel mentioned years ago that Byron is obsessed with Subaru so that's the cars they have (If I'm wrong then sorry! lol)

[@elaines5724]

If you have the money, than why not? You just sound bitter.

[@PinkZebraGirl14]

I thought the Same thing but I'm glad she's got a Subaru too they're awesome cars and her Hubby has an STI so I figured he wanted her to have a Subaru too

[@iheartcoffeenmakeup]

Yeah but Rachel isn't like that!! She's more of a "just because you can doesn't mean you should" kinda person

[@elliemerc01]

I take my car to In & Out Car wash/vac. I pick the 'total' package and voilà all done. When i was much younger, I used to go to the DIY car washers and again 15 minutes and all done. Thanks for your video.

[@margarethargis1734]

For the Pom Pom air clip, if you glue googlie eyes onto it and some pipe cleaner antenna it looks like a caterpillar

[@babyn3mo]

Thank you soo much! Such a satisfying video. No crumbs left behind and that shiny finish.

[@hotmessexpress3531]

won't the DIY car cleaner leave a residue? your using oil and soap? even diluted with water I would think that it would leave an unwanted leftover residue? can anyone confirm or deny this please?

[@321blessed321]

Needed this video and you all purpose natural cleaner/polisher....buying a car and will need to detail the inside. Thanks!

[@AccordingToTiny]

What kinda vacuum is that?

[@ethereal1257]

Thank you for the diy car cleaner and air freshner ideas, love it as I've gone chemical free too and just only recently realized how much chemicals are in scented candles, freshners etc.

[@ZzzRoofus]

The Life of Queen Pen you know that the baby oil is mineral oil which means it's petroleum based? also they add artifical fragrances to it? aka more chemicals.

[@aliciavernick]

This was a video I desperately needed! Thank you!

[@MsAysh28]

Loved the video and the DIY. Just a suggestion : I keep the umbrella on the side door of the driver's seat and I find that it is more practical instead of leaving it in the trunk in case it rains :)

[@valerielozanoub]

Do you have a forester or outback ? I have a forester that's pretty old and want to get a new version of a suburu. Looks really spacious. Just a quick little question lol I know your not a car salesman (woman lol) love your videos and diys!! ❤️❤️

[@PinkZebraGirl14]

I think it's a forester

[@racheltalbott]

Yup! It's a Forester =) So far we've loved it!

[@FashionChaletNET]

My husband has the latest Subaru outback. It's so smooth when I drive it. It practically drives itself. I can't wait until it becomes my car. So far mine is a 4 door honda but I like the Subaru more!! :)

[@fhksyoutube]

I highly recommend considering the Outback! Last year, I drove both the Forester and Outback side by side and feel in love with the Outback. So, I have a 2015 model but go to your local dealer and test drive them both. That's the ultimate way you'll know, but I love love love my Outback. :))

Isn't it mandatory to have a first aid and emergency kit including a hi-vis vest anyway? At least it is here in Austria!

[@alishacharity2866]

Gavin_152 not in canada.. it should be though.

[@sekritdinos7221]

Gavin_152 As far as I know, it isn't required in the US. But, in Washington state it is required that you keep a bag for trash in your car at all times.

[@jazzamin93]

that's super cool that it's mandatory.

[@KkheartsMaK]

One of the best hack videos I've ever seen! Will 100% be using almost all of these.

[@ready40111]

Literally buying these things is more expensive than just buying the product for the car.

[@jimjeepguy9974]

You're right. However virtually all the products you buy to clean your vehicle are harmful to you, as they either have petroleum distillates or synthetic chemicals in them ...

[@aleesp8282]

I'm glad I saw this before I clean my car now I get to use these tips tomorrow! love the cute pom poms!

[@kiarawilliams3731]

for some of the childish people who can't stand hearing the word tampons or pads grow up and be mature because all women uses these things or 1 of these things and boys you might as well not try to get a girlfriend or wife if your childish because she is gonna uses these when its that time of the month so boys be loyal

[@Lucy-ym4sf]

Kiara Williams the immature stigma around tampons annoy so much! We need to make sure young teenagers know tampons are OK to use and people shouldn't be so silly over 1 word

[@zoeward7538]

Kiara Williams - Amen! Thanks for commenting this!!

[@txkingg]

No one is crying though...?

[@stevebrule4742]

I like how she forgot to add in vagina wipes, body glitter, and condoms. Hey. You have to be prepared.

[@Diva9000x]

Good tips. Love the toothbrush holder - totally gonna use that. One thing though, spray the cloth then wipe your car interior. You could damage your electronics and get over spray on stuff.

[@omkarvaidya25]

You aren't supposed to put any kind of liquid in the center console

[@ckyamanda]

Watching your cleaning videos is just sooo soothing!

[@xXTheBuddXx]

but wouldn't the oil make everything oily to the touch???

[@thecrystalmomma1613]

The other ingredients balance everything out so there's not much, if any, oily residue.

[@lusciouslizz1]

Ive been meaning to write this comment. Ive been watching for a long time now and i can honestly say youe videos are my fav to watch lately. Clean short well Thoughout...... Just loving them so far!!!

[@debbieg1807]

And I thought I´m the only one who likes to clean her car in detail! :) Thank you Rachel for this amazing Video! I always love your Organization Videos! :)

[@lexmarie9021]

Haha Rachel it's Ylang Ylang not Yin Yang! It's pronounced Yuh-Long

[@Thepublicaccount]

I was wondering if it was a blend from that oil company or if she meant Ylang Ylang

[@hazyhoneyskies]

It's actually pronounced "Lang Lang"

[@iamfilipinas]

"ee-lang eee lang"

[@iamfilipinas]

***** I think it is important. I am not an essential oil pusher but I know what an Ylang ylang is. it is a type of orchid found deep in the forests. I believe this is helpful to people who would decide to purchase such essential oil. What if you go to whole foods (or where ever else you intend to procure it) and then you get disappointed to find out there is no such Yin Yang. just saying.

[@linger368]

+F San Jose for me I like to know how things are pronounced because I think it is a form of basic respect. :) like other people might pronounce your name in one way, but in actuality you pronounce it another. I would go along with the version you say because that is your name, just like the creator of a particular brand or food or whatever it is chose something, I would pronounce it the way he or she decides.

[@hgib3]

I love the air freshener idea! Thanks for sharing! I don't enjoy paying too much for a pleasant smelling van.

[@racheldonnell8641]

Your dirty car is cleaner than my clean car. 😆. Life with four kids is messy.

GREAT TIPS! The car is the last thing we think about cleaning. I usually keep mine pretty neat inside, no clutter/trash, etc. But I always forget to dust and vacuum it. I will try to remember more! ;) Xx

[@SilvieSmiles]

Sand....Ahhhh it's my nemesis, our kids love the beach, but the aftermath of sand makes me wanna cry. Loved this video. I'm definitely trying that DIY air freshener. Brilliant idea!!!

[@mitakabg5621]

why are you abusing the car with these smells

[@mariahd5091]

On the diy air freshener you could take mini clothes pins and just put 1 Pompom with essential oil... just putting it out there because not all people like having something big sticking out of their air vents... I've been using the smaller one for about 1 year and I think it worked out better with the small ones rather than the big ones in my car

[@Aman-rp7yj]

Lol she couldn't figure out what to call the ratchet straps

[@Pinkaroo91]

[@Xavi_ma]

ok so i gotta buy expensive oils instead of one bottle of car cleaner for less.?

[@BlackBlood74]

if you're tight on cash then use the inexpensive cheaper one :p but i like to save up for non-toxic alternatives & I'm sure that's what she does (:

[@yasminehmmm6020]

There is many many uses for essentials oils especially in natural beauty and home cleaners

[@twalke0555]
