Car Dry Cleaning in Tbilisi: what the studio does and how long it takes

Dust, stains and odours can appear in a cabin for different reasons. Interior cleaning helps clean accessible surfaces; the need for it and the work involved depend on the condition of the individual car. Below — what it costs in 2026, how the three soiling categories differ, when to discuss ozone treatment, and how long the car stays at the studio.

Surface cleaning usually covers vacuuming and wiping accessible areas. If a stain or odour comes from material below the surface, more thorough treatment may be needed.

Car interior cleaning at a studio is deep, material-by-material work. The cleaning method is chosen for the material and type of soil. Before work starts, ask which areas and materials are included, whether specific stains need separate treatment and how the cabin will be dried.

The studio runs on Koch Chemie, the same German line premium European detailers use. Products and methods should be selected for the condition of each surface. Tell the specialist about damaged or delicate upholstery before work starts.

BESTAUTO lists three starting prices by level of soiling. The descriptions below are examples of cabin condition; confirm the final category and price after the car is assessed:

Light soiling — from 400 ₾. Dust on the dashboard, isolated upholstery stains and light wear on the steering wheel. Timing and scope are confirmed after the vehicle is assessed.

Medium soiling — from 500 ₾. Stains on seats, soiled touch points on the wheel and shifter, and noticeable darkening of fabric. Timing and scope are confirmed after the vehicle is assessed.

Heavy soiling — from 550 ₾. Set-in stains, grease in fabric creases and a persistent odour. The odour source and whether it can be removed should be assessed separately. Timing and scope are confirmed after the vehicle is assessed.

Photos can help show problem areas. Confirm the final category, work included and price with the manager after the car has been assessed; ask whether photos are enough for a final quote. The full pricing block for every category and add-on is on the interior cleaning service page.

Possible steps depend on the condition of the cabin; confirm the scope before work begins:

1. Intake. Before photos, logging of problem areas, agreement on category.
2. Disassembly. Mats may be removed; any other disassembly should be agreed separately.
3. Dry pass. Removal of dust and debris from accessible surfaces, including gaps and between seats.
4. Spot treatment. Targeted chemistry by stain type — separate formulas for organics, grease, ink or marker.
5. Deep extraction. The method for seats and other fabric surfaces is selected for the material.
6. Detailed cleaning. Plastic, the steering column, armrests and vent grilles are cleaned using methods suited to the material.
7. Leather. Cleaning methods and any extra care depend on the material’s condition; agree on the scope in advance.
8. Drying. After wet treatment, the cabin needs time to dry. Timing depends on the material, amount of work and drying conditions; ask for an estimate at intake.
9. Reassembly and check. Mats back in, locks checked, glass wiped from inside.
10. Handover. Client inspects the result; after photos are taken.

Ozone treatment is an add-on from 70 ₾. Ozone treatment may be worth discussing when odour remains a concern after the cabin is assessed. Results depend on the odour source; ask the specialist about treatment and airing time. Follow their airing instructions before using the car.

When to discuss the source of an odour:

• smoking in the cabin has left a persistent tobacco odour
• a dog or cat travels in the cabin regularly
• dampness or odour remains after a leak — address the moisture source first
• second-hand purchase with unknown history
• the odour source is still unclear after ordinary cleaning

Skip it:

• the cabin has no persistent odour after assessment
• the goal is to remove visible soil rather than address an odour

Ozone does not restore materials or replace interior cleaning. If the odour source remains in the car, extra treatment cannot guarantee its removal. It should not be regarded as medical disinfection.

Timing depends on the amount of work, materials and drying conditions. Ask for an estimate after the car is assessed:

• Light — timing confirmed when booking
• Medium — timing confirmed when booking
• Heavy — timing confirmed when booking
• Ozone — treatment and airing time confirmed separately
• Drying — timing depends on conditions and materials

Agree on drop-off and collection times with the studio in advance. Extra treatment or drying may change the estimate.

At pick-up, check whether the cabin is dry and the glass is free of haze. If a chemical odour remains, ask the specialist about its source and airing advice. Ask about aftercare for the materials treated.

How often professional cleaning is useful depends on the car’s use and cabin condition. Remove fresh soil promptly; if surface cleaning is no longer enough, discuss the work needed with a specialist.

What car dry cleaning does not do:

• does not restore cut or burned leather — that is a separate restoration service
• does not change upholstery colour — sun-faded fabric stays faded
• does not patch holes — that is upholstery work
• does not remove odours whose physical source is still inside (milk under a mat, a dead rodent in a duct — remove the source first, then clean)

In each case the root cause is dealt with first, and only after that the cleaning is booked.

From 400 ₾ light, 500 ₾ medium, 550 ₾ heavy. Ozone starts at 70 ₾ on top. The full pricing block for every category and add-on is on the car interior cleaning service page. Assessment of the cabin confirms the soil category and any optional work; vehicle size and body type do not change the selected category's price.

Timing depends on the cabin condition, work included and drying. Ask for an estimate for your car when booking, and agree on any extra treatment separately.

Results depend on the odour source and whether it can be removed. Describe the issue when booking so the specialist can explain possible extra treatment and limits to the result.

Cold or damp weather may extend drying. Check availability and an estimated collection time for your car before booking.

Surface cabin cleaning is limited to vacuuming and wiping accessible surfaces. For interior cleaning, treatment is selected for the material and soil level; the three category prices start at 400, 500 and 550 ₾. Results depend on surface condition and the cause of stains or odours.

Interior cleaning is hygiene, not cosmetics. Check the cabin regularly and remove fresh dirt promptly. When surface cleaning is not enough, discuss interior cleaning and the expected result with a specialist.

The category and final price depend on the cabin condition and the work agreed. Discuss ozone separately if an odour remains after its source is addressed. The decision depends on the condition of the car.

Key takeaways:

• Starting prices by category: light from 400 ₾, medium from 500 ₾, heavy from 550 ₾; confirm the final quote after assessment
• Ozone treatment from 70 ₾ is optional and depends on the situation
• Treatment and drying time are estimated after the car is assessed
• Dry cleaning does not restore damaged materials or change their colour
• The need for repeat cleaning depends on cabin condition and how the car is used
