Best vacuum for interior?
The title says it all but to get more in depth, what's the best way to vacuum the crevice between the seats and the bottom panel in the door- the pumping things for your seat. I have a tremendous amount of dirt and debris on top of it and it's apparent that a regular vacuum at my local DIY Car Wash won't do the job. Any suggestions on how to clean it fast and efficiently? (I've tried using chopsticks, too time consuming and much effort)
Also, any recommendations or tips on cleaning and keeping the interior (dash board, seats, and panels) healthy and nice? |

Just use your household vacuum with a crevice tool.

That's actually a question I had in my mind as well. Lately I've been thinking about a pneumatic one. So this thread got me googling.. I think I landed on this one..

I use this: http://www.target.com/p/black-decker...xhYaAgBW8P8HAQ
Works fairly well and the battery easily lasts a full cleaning. Plus, based on my exp., it has more suction than most hand vacs and it is bagless. |

Ive been using a bissell zing for my car. I don't have carpet at home so I never invested into a full on vacuum lol. All hardwood floors for me.
