Today, I'm throwing a lot of spring cleaning content at you, from checklists that can help you remember every spot that needs sprucing up, to suggestions for products that can make it all easier, but I am just one person who, for better or worse, cleans my house in a specific way. To make this series on spring cleaning more comprehensive, I decided to ask some pros for their advice and share expert tips I've received.
Address stains first
Before you start your first load of laundry on a spring cleaning day, go through all of it and pull out anything with a stain. I'm guilty of just tossing everything into the wash and vaguely hoping stains magically come out, which has a mixed success rate, but on a day when you're focused entirely on cleaning, you should really give those garments attention. Separate anything with a stain, then pre-treat those items while other fabrics go in the machine. Jennifer Rivera, Henkel Research and Development Director and laundry expert at Persil, suggests looking for detergents that have enzymes formulated to break down stains and following their directions. (Naturally, she recommends Persil Original Everyday Clean.)
For Rosa Picosa, a CleanTokker with nearly 900,000 followers and a cleaning expert with Fabuloso, for instance, that means tackling the baseboards: "Honestly, they can be easily overlooked and I don't think any guests in my home are inspecting my baseboards," she says. But even so, eventually, it must be done. It can be as easy as using the mop to run over them when you're mopping your floor (which is one of the final steps on all of my room-by-room cleaning checklists). Naturally, she suggests double-concentrated Fabuloso for this, but so do I. Read my review of it here (in which I actually use it to clean my baseboards).
Think prevention when you're cleaning
I also use this set of coatings from spotLESS. The set comes with spray-on coatings for for glass and mirrors, toilets, and sinks and fixtures. When you spray them on their respective surfaces, they prolong the time between cleanings by repelling dust and grime—plus they make it easier to wipe all that off when the surfaces do get dirty.
Don't forget your car
Start by vacuuming in and around your seats, as dirt and debris can scratch and damage the surfaces. To get rid of smells, she suggests sprinkling baking soda on the seats, letting it sit overnight, then vacuuming it up. Wipe down your seat surfaces using a leather or cloth cleaner and a microfiber cloth. (I don't have a car with leather seats, but I do have a lot of leather boots. I use the Chemical Guys' Quick Detailer wipes, $8.99, and recommend them for a fast and easy fix.) Wipe down all your surfaces, use a steam cleaner to get deep into the seats if you need to, and wipe down your windows with glass cleaner.
