It might well be the result of open windows while driving over gravel roads. I even think the big rust holes are a result of the same. The gravel could strip off the paint and the sheer metal starts rusting. By the way, does the owner have the intention to have this repaired along with the broken windshield?
That poor car got abused… I’m quite impressed with the results and i tried out the waffle towel and it works great. Used it on my car. Those seats came out looking awesome. Mitch saves the day one again! Have a good weekend Mitch and DG viewers!!
Ajajjajaja no jodas hermano ,los he visto vender para uso interno o para venta en el extranjero mucho peor allí ,este jetta es un 0km de segunda mano en Reino Unido
All the "fave" boxes checked for this one: car over 15 years old; abused; bought at auction; interior in rough shape. Even an auction car that was a dust bowl baby gets transformed with your detail! Well done--even the cheapie carpet cleaned up beautifully!
What I am seeing on many of these car detail channels is that they all have a list of products on just about every video that has been published! Mitch, you wouldn't believe how happy that makes me. As there are some who want to open a car or truck detail shop, having the list of products placed out in the open is the best route to go. For those how the dirt and trash is disposed of, there are three trucks that are involved. The septic truck with the vacuum attachment, the garbage truck, and when the dirty water gets dumped from the washing machine, nowdays the water goes to a water treatment center where the dirt ends up being loaded onto a dump truck. Seeing how things are done is the main reason why I subscribed to this channel.
Looks like a vehicle from the east coast, lots of rusty cars there due to the salt they use on the roads. This one came out in your usual spectacular fashion, nobody beats The Detail Geek in transforming a car from dirty to beautifully clean!
Just discovered your channel about a month ago friend & you HONESTLY do the best I ever seen anyone Retore/Detail! I love the fact you take off your shoes when cleaning the inside fabric. Little things like that people don't do anymore. Anyways GREAT job, look forward to your next video 👏 💯 ✔️✅
Wow, that was a stellar cleanup. The Jetta was a bit rusty but very nice. SO much dust that the respirator was in FULL use. You always do such an amazing job on the seats, despite the stains and wear. Fixing the headlights was good to see. Once they get that cloudy they really don't help. I know, I HAD the same problem until I cleaned mine up and now they work great. Good work Mitch! Still loving the music outro. I really enjoyed the drain pit clean up. That was fun to watch and the sounds. Have a great weekend!! 💜
Joel, it’s wonderful to see you again! What a stunning transformation! The new owner truly appreciates the opportunity to buy the Jetta as if it were brand new, thanks to the refreshing interior, beautiful carpets, and the perfect neatness of the steering wheel. I am getting ready to watch the GeekYard now. Yippe!! Have a wonderful weekend! 😊
Depends. If they decide to pull you over and ticket you they can. But most of this vehicle inspection guys are looking for jacked up trucks or modified sports cars. We also don’t have yearly inspections depending on where you are. Where I’m from you only require a safety when registering a new to you car.
@elizabethannfarrow1971 idk where you are but here in the US (VA to be exact) we have yearly inspections and get the sticker also. This car would never pass and will be a candidate for the junkyard
9:26 have you ever tried the orbital sander hack! You place a Velcro pad on an orbital sander and stick it to the carpet and it’s supposed to vibrate all the dirt out as you vacuum at the same time.
Awesome! The 2006 Jetta improves better transformation from a lot of dust and disaster from the steering wheel of the interior. Good job! Have a great weekend! 😊👏❤️
Absolute phenomenal job as always!!! I re-watched the cleaning of the mats 🤣 those are always my favourites along with the foot pedals! Cheers, have a fab weekend. *Your yard is looking gorgeous! It’s so much work but worth it to look out on. Well done 👏 💚🍀
I still miss the old before & after shots on your driveway... something about them was so captivating. But progress is good and I'm glad to see you moving right along in life!
Hey I watched a detailer from the UK use a massager on the floor and vibrate the dirt and debris loose while holding the vacuum nose to the carpet near the massager. It's a thing they do since it's hard like you said to get the dirt and debris loose.
How in this world someone could get that must dust inside a car. I loved the drain pit video. I wish you would consider doing a video of the garage clean up after a detail job. I am sure it’s satisfying to see also. Have a great week sir Mitch
Due to the amount of scraping and rubbing you do with the crevice tool on your vacuum hose, do you have to replace the crevice tool from time to time due to wear? I would love to see a comparisons between a well worn tool and a new one.
he in fact did make a video about it (I'm unsure whether this was a member's only video, but I think so.) yes, after about one year, he needed a new one. the size difference was unbelievable (he couldn't quite believe it himself.) the worn down one was an easy six inch shorter 😲
Another great transformation. I did notice though that one headlight cleaned up better than the other. Getting that dusty inside is most likely not as difficult as you might think. A window might not go completely up leaving a small space. Dust doesn't need a whole lot of space to get in. Example, my brother has a Suburban and it is parked in the driveway because it needs some work. So, the bottom line is I am sure it would be about that dusty and they live in the city. And yes all the windows are up but that's not to say it is air tight. I would love to see what you could with it but getting it there would take about a day and half of just straight driving (we live in California).
Hey man I run a shop myself in the states, and have used a lot of the same techniques just different products, over the last year my clients and customers noticed the difference too that has helped the business and just saying keep it going and ever wanna expand feel free to reach out! Have wanted to start a channel and produce some great content like this but un sure if it will take off and do well. Either way keep it up man!!
I don't watch yard geek but have you tried Clover Lawn for weed control? Takes less water, less mowing, it blooms and it's a turf builder so much better weed control.
Probably the most reliable Jetta’s ever made. While simple the engines that generation are very reliable as compared to all previous / current years IMO.
I've been wanting to ask you for a few videos now.... Do you ever clean the headliners of the cars you detail? Seeing the inside nastiness of most of them it is highly probable that the headliners are gross but I don't think I've ever seen you cleaning any 🤔
The cost to detail this vehicle is probably more than what the vehicle is worth. A waste of time to detail this vehicle. Vehicle needs to go straight to the junkyard.
Is it weird that seeing u sweat makes me feel better? Like ur not some car detailing god?! Lol cuz I sweat like crazy when I detail lol. But as always....absolutely amazing! U da man Mitch!!
I sure hope the buyer had it almost for free. Heavy welding + glass replacement & crap engine almost guaranteed... 😬 If what you want is a cheap runner all costs included, that wasn't it.
The inside has seen a lot of gravel, and so has the windscreen probably, given all the cracks on it I was thinking of you the other day when I saw a red car that looked like half the paint was missing. I wondered what you would think of it!
In most of Europe, if you even as much as TRIED to get the annual inspection done with that car, they'd first laugh their arses off and then kick you off the premises.
