Tips for Cleaning a Used Golf Cart

There are many great reasons to purchase a used golf cart, but it’s important to clean it well before you head out on your first adventure! Our team at Golf Cars of Louisiana is here to be a resource for all of your golf cart needs, so continue reading to learn more about how to clean a pre-owned golf cart.

Sanitation is Priority

The biggest difference between cleaning a used golf cart and one that just came from the factory is how you approach the task. When you clean a used golf cart, you want to prioritize sanitizing the vehicle rather than just making it shine. Even if it’s been detailed by the seller or the dealership, it never hurts to complete a deep clean on your own. 

Take time to locate the owner’s manual to learn more about your specific model and what products are recommended for cleaning. This can be important if you will be sanitizing several different materials. 

Gather Your Supplies

Once you’ve read more about your golf cart, it’s time to gather your cleaning supplies! You may need several different cleaning products to work with each area of the golf cart, but make sure your main cleaning agent has bacteria-killing ingredients. Remember, you are aiming to cleanse and beautify your new-to-you cart!

Typically you will need a few cleaning cloths and sponges, a bucket, a water source (like a garden hose), and your products. You may also opt to use protective gear like gloves if you prefer to be extra diligent about cleanliness. 

Have Fun!

The best part about cleaning up your used golf cart is knowing that it’s yours! Have fun with the cleaning process, take your time, and get to know your vehicle. Pay attention to the small details and storage areas along with the high-traffic areas like the steering wheel.
