October 29th, 2009 02:41 AM #1Mga bro, help po. Napansin ko kasi may mga "white spots" yung dashboard ko pati na din sa mga upuan (Leather Cover). Sa totoo lang, hindi ko siya masyado ginagamit. Siguro mga 2 to 3 times ko lang siya gamitin sa isang buwan kasi may iba pa akong pang service. Pinatingnan ko ito sa mekaniko ko na may alam din sa detailing, sabi niya baka "inaamag" daw ang mga upuan ng sasakyan, akala nga niya binaha ang car ko e. Chineck ko po kung may mga pagkain na naiwan sa loob (Candy, Sitseria Etc.) pero wala naman akong nakita.
Question:
1. Possible po ba na amagin ang mga upuan despite na hindi siya masyado ginagamit?
2. Ano po ang solusyon dito kung true nga?

October 29th, 2009 03:19 AM #21. Oo nangyayari talaga yan lalo na kung tag-ulan.
2. Masigasig na paglinis lang kada linggo. Marami sa net ang paraan ng paglinis ng "molds", google mo lang.

try mong "ibilad" sa araw with the windows half open once a week yung oto. humid ang bansa natin, so normal yung mold growths.
alternatively, puede mong i-purge ng high levels ng "nitrogen" ang oto para mamatay ang molds (except the mold spores).
ang cheapest na source ng nitrogen ay ammonia... kung magiiwan ka ng bukas na container ng ammonia... magbe-vaporize yun and degrade to Hydrogen and Nitrogen. Kung nakasara ang oto mo... mae-expose sa Nitrogen ang molds at hindi sila makakahinga...eventually dying.
yun nga lang, pagbukas ng oto, maiiwan pa saglit ang matapang na amoy nung ammonia...

Bukas mo lang ng konti iyong bintana . Pag tagulan madalas mangyari iyan nakukulob iyong hangin sa loob .Kung may Armor All ka leather care pahiran mo na lang para mawala iyong amag at lumambot iyong leather cover .

Research on products that can be applied safely on dashboards and leather seats that may prevent mold growth. They could even be two different products... one specifically for the dashboard and maybe leather dressing for the seats.
Not sure if you can use Lysol (which is known to control mold growth as well) as it may contain harsh chemicals that are unsuitable on car interiors.Last edited by oj88; October 29th, 2009 at 09:29 AM.

It might also help if you can place one or two moisture absorbing canisters inside your car, especially that you don't use it that often. This will help minimize the moisture in the air inside the car and slow down or prevent any molds growing.
These products can be bought from either hardware/DIY stores or supermarkets.
The more common ones comes in containers that look like these:

Tried those, GH. Parang placebo effect lang. It DOES accept moisture pero it seems that it doesn't absorb it fast enough. It's quicker to just turn on the A/C at the coldest setting every couple of days for a few minutes to dehumidify the interior.
