I detailed a nasty car a while back using your same method but I forgot what was used. Thank you for refreshing my memory. We bought a used car with nasty carpet, and I had to search this method. Ty for sharing
next time take all the seats out and clean under them, my ocd was bothered by the dirt left under the seats...you did a good job tho....another question...20 years and no cleaning seriously? ewww
Get a brush-head drill attachment for agitating after you spray to get deeper into the fibers, and one of those insecticide pump sprayers gets better/faster saturation and saves your hands. You might need a different cleaning solution as well. Stauffer Garage has done videos of carpet/seats even worse than this and got them looking great again if you want to check out his methods and cleaners.
Why do they even make car floors with carpet anyway? They just get nasty and harbor smells and they're a pain in the butt to clean. I'm gunna be rich when I invent a nice car flooring that's not carpet.
Emily Leetch do it! Lol i’d totally buy it & pay for it to be professionally installed Bc honestly my car doesn’t have any stains or food or drink spilled in it at all but it still gets that closed up smell from your feet wetting the carpet from the rain & then drying over & over again.. just smells a little closed in - if that makes sense. I don’t eat or drink in it so that def helps but carpet in a car is still weird. I want some of those weathertech mats.
Pro tip: Next time when you wanna just scrub it after you spray it, don't scrub it with the machine on because it will suck it up before you want it to.
Do you have any suggestions if I don't have a hot water extractor? I do have a wet and dry shop vac. I will try to rent an extractor but if I don't find one, what would you suggest?
Yes like Magnekjo said... Sweet Project Cars has a video without a hot water extractor he just uses a shop vac. He makes up a cleaning mixture of like bleach, ammonia windex, Ajax for smell, and rubbing alcohol and maybe something else. He then puts it in a bottle then pours it on the stains and agitates while literally filling up the area with water from a hose then vacuums it all up with a wet vac.
So if you have to put a number to it... what percentage improvement would you say? 80%... 90%... 99%... haha Purchase these products to be able to do this yourself... Super Clean Degreaser: amzn.to/2HTYTR0 Carpet Brush: amzn.to/2UpXyXJ Bissell Hot Water Extractor: amzn.to/2K0OrsI And to those ASMR folks. I did not speed up the extraction part of the really bad area. Jump to 2:02 and 8:11 😀... a full 20 minute video will be coming of PURE WATER EXTRACTION NORMAL SPEED. Stay tuned.
I don’t drive this car and I’m about to scrap it. I just closed the doors right away and haven’t opened them I don’t think since this video. But.... when I cleaned my 7 seater SUV and 5 seater SUV I let them sit over night and one time I put a space heater in to help with the moisture while the windows were cracked.
You know what. This not my mom's car. After watching this video. I saw more dirt than usual. NVM I actually thought this was my mom's car coz the first time you upload it was around the same week when my mom sold it.
9 hours later I'm still detailing the front of my car! It was dirty but not like dirty dirty! I like using a handheld steamer it gets into the nooks and crannies! Tomorrow's another day! ✌🏼🚐🍷🍷
Kylie Kaykay lol not all southerners sound country lol especially New Orleanians 😂😂 some parts of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi & a few parts in Texas sound super country to me, but I’ve found that Louisiana is mostly a mix of heavy, light & intermittent Cajun French and.... well.... “Yat” lol like me! 🥰🤗 I’ve heard ppl from all around the world visiting here say we sound like a mix of 2 different northern states - I don’t remember which 2 tho but I think it was Brooklyn & New Jersey, don’t quote me on that tho - like I said, I really dont remember which. I just remembered being as surprised by that, as they were by how not country we sound down here for being a very southern state. 🤷♀️
