Can You Spray Alcohol Inside a Car?

[DelElle]

You can spray alcohol inside a car, but the vehicle must be turned off and kept in a non-operational state. It is also important to ensure proper ventilation inside the car. Since 75% alcohol has a flash point around 22°C and evaporates quickly, car owners must ensure there are no open flames nearby and carefully control the amount of alcohol used to avoid excessive alcohol concentration in the air, which could lead to an explosion. It is recommended to use 75% alcohol to wipe down interior surfaces, such as the steering wheel, interior and exterior door handles, window buttons, floor, accelerator pedal, brake pedal, clutch pedal, trunk, and other frequently touched areas. Afterward, clean these surfaces with water to achieve effective disinfection without damaging the car's interior.
