If you’ve bought a Chevy Silverado 1500 from Troutman’s Chevrolet GMC, it stands to reason that you’ll want to keep it looking great. That can be tough if you like going off-road or carrying lots of cargo, but not to worry. Our truck cleaning tips can help you get the bed of your Chevy pickup looking like new once again!
Remove Everything
First, make sure that there is nothing left behind in your truck bed. Even if it’s something your truck always carries around, any items are just going to get in the way and prevent a thorough cleaning.
Sweep Out Any Debris
Any sticks, clumps of dirt, or other obvious things that need to be removed from your bed can be swept out. It’s easy for rocks, leaves, and other things to find a home in your truck bed, especially if you’re the outdoorsy type, but now it’s time for them to go so that you can get your Chevy Silverado nice and clean.
Spray Down the Bed Liner
Now it’s time to spray down the bed liner. A high pressure washer can help you get rid of any dirt that’s trapped in corners or really stuck on. Spray the liner from side to side and work slowly for the best results. Also make sure that you leave the tailgate open so that the dirty water can flow out.
Deep Clean the Truck Bed
First make sure that your soap is safe for use with cars. You don’t want to use any chemicals that can damage the truck. Apply the shampoo throughout the truck bed and use a stiff bristle brush to scrub down the entire thing. If you can’t get something out, try a heavy-duty nylon brush.
Rinse and Dry the Bed
Give the bed a final rinse to get all of the soap out and let it dry in the sun. Now your truck is ready for your next adventure!
