How To Clean Car HEADLINER- Interior Car Detailing Tips 

Thanks for that information 🥰

I try my best. Thanks for watching!

Thanks Jay!

Great! Thanks for watching

thanks Ed!

good tips

Thanks for watching!

You're welcome!

Yes, you can buy an APC at your local auto parts store. I specifically use Super Clean which I buy locally

Thanks!

Glad I could help!

Honestly I don't remember anymore. I bought them a while back. Hopefully someone else can chime in

You're right on the dot! you can use a variety of tools to get the job done. Thanks for watching Tyler!

I have this same issue and I can't find an answer anywhere. I hate looking at it 😢

Thanks for watching Sean! I have a bunch of pricing related videos on my channel

Detail Groove Ok, thanks, I'll watch some videos. Thanks for responding.

Thanks for watching :)

Detail Groove so i am thinking to start trilling with my own cars, some suggestions videos? please let me know. thanks.

If you simply wipe off the steam/water directly after, you won't have that problem. It's only a problem if you let it dry on the headliner. But even then, you just need to hit it with some APC or the steamer again and you're good to go!

Try off with simple and easy; APC and a towel or APC and a brush

Awe snap. Well for one, did they put out the cigarette on the headliner? If that's the case, there's not much you can do. The fibers are burnt

Hmm- I would try vacuuming first. Then use a very lightly damped towel and lightly dab it onto the headliner

@@DetailGroove thank you for replying :) i will give that a try.

I get it from my girlfriends weave.

you have to replace it. it got wet and the glue came undone.

Hello, I have the same issue! Any advice on products?

hey man, there’s a youtuber named ChirsFix he just made a vid that’s called supercleaning our interior, he covers headliners and how to handle water marks, hope this helps.

Yup- that thing has a kick!

I love totally awesome. It's my go to APC and it's super cheap.

Depends on the type of headliner. If it's kind of old and cheap, you can mess up the fibers and then it's going to look ugly. You'd also want to steam clean everythiinnngg since the smoke travels everywhere. That may work, but there are also more thorough things you can do like using an Ozone machine

Detail Groove be careful with ozone machine it can corrode stuff if not properly used!

@@DetailGroove can steam cleaning actually remove smell/dirt without some type of suction afterward? I thought the steam only breaks down dirt hence the smell will remain unless you use extraction?

I have a video showing my mobile rig. It's pretty cool! I don't want to carry every product and tool under the sun, so it works for me. Are you thinking about getting it?

Thanks! I'll look up that video you mentioned. Yes - I like the visual appeal and the fact that it is probably easier to park in a crowded city like the one I live in.

I really like it because it makes you think of essentials. With a big van, because there's so much more space, you want to throw everything in there. With an HHR, you pick and choose what's going in there

I’d say it is too aggressive you can try it in a small inconspicuous area and hopefully out of sight and see. Also don’t spin the drill brush too fast.

@@jayasmrmore3687 thanks. That comment was from a year ago when I first started detailing. Now I've gained much more more knowledge and experience. I learned the hard way lol

Ed G well now you can warn others. Another thing I like to do is practice on my own vehicle so I don’t get into any sort of liability issues

@ Ed G how were you able to remove the soda stains?

Thanks for the kind words! So with the question you're asking, it seems as though you are not all that experienced in detailing. That's okay. Just don't make the mistake of buying soooo many tools and products thinking you need everything to get started. Here's a list of the commonly used tools and products I have: detailgroove.co/resources/

Detail Groove .Thanks, your correct about experience. I have done a lot of work on my own vehicles as well as family members and know how to do some basic detailing, but never for money and as a job. Thanks for your fast reply and help!

Keep in mind you don't need to be a level 9000 detailer in order to offer services and make money. If you've detailed 2 to 5 cars with friends/family members, you are probably better and more experienced than 98% of everyone out there

Detail Groove ,Yes I have detailed several cars, trucks and even my boats, but I haven't used updated tools like DA polishers just used my older orbital machine that doesn't work like the DA ones in the market. I have used clay bars in the past and top of the line chemicals, but need to learn how to really do a great job! Thanks for the reply and yes I understand that a lot of people don't really know how to detail, so you are correct about the 98%! Thanks again

Goodluck on your venture Todd!

Hmm, I haven't in a while so I can't give you an honest answer on that. I'm sure it would reduce it a bit more simply for the fact that it's stronger than an APC. But usually, I'll just hit it with the steamer and it's gone in 3 seconds

Detail Groove Being that a steamer has about a 200+ temp. Any problem with steam seperating the glue?

Noo, not at all. I don't drown the headliner with water. It's a quick pulse of steam and done. I've never had an issue with it

Gotallofthem1 which is why you need to keep the steamer moving

You can try Amazon. What brush specifically?

A tpoth brush works the same!

Hmm, do you have a photo or video of the steamer? But yes, using a more direct attachment can probably get you better results!

Well, after doing hundreds of headliners... it hasn't lol. Thanks!

Then dilute it or try a different APC or even a completely different brand or product

That is pretty strange

Give it your best shot

I bet they regretted opening that soda😂

all purpose cleaner

Thanks Siera :)

It's a great tool but you'll need a compressor. Which that in itself kills it for me. But if you can get the entire setup, it's pretty sweet!

Detail Groove thanks for replying . I work pretty much from my garage I'm thinking in buying it

It def is going to help you out a lot!

Get it..I have the tornador with the velocity vacuum attachment and like it even better than the tornador black by itself. The tornador can even work with smaller compressors...you will just have some wait time for the tank to fill from time to time if you keep your finger on the trigger. A 15 gal portable will actually be a good trade off and if necessary can even run off a generator in the field. Just get rid of the crappy air pressure regulator that most store bought compressors come with and use a 1/4 to 1/2 male to male npt adapter and a dixon full port 1/2 npt ball valve shutoff so you can have a high flow line all the way to the Tornador. Use Prevost or Milton V style high flow couplers and plugs so you move more air. I also use Flexilla 1/2" inner diameter air hose with 1/2 npt ends and adapters so I get the least amount of air restrictions between the pressure switch on the compressor to whatever tool I'm using. The shorter run of air hose length will also help if you are running a smaller compressor, maybe 6-8 feet long flexilla whip hose for example. Most people find air tools lacking simply because they did not take all the restrictions into account between the actual compressor and the tool and the rates of pressure and flow drop off from using--small diameter hoses, crappy air fittings, cheap regulators, and low flow couplers and plugs. The best plan is: use whatever adapters and parts are available so you can move the most air possible. Bigger hoses and fitting can really bring an air tool to life, and nowadays there are more options for affordable high flow lines and fittings....don't take any shortcuts when you assemble your setup and you can forgo some frustration. I'm currently setting up a new compressor and making sure I set it up right this time so I get maximum efficiency out of this portable 30 gallon. In my case, I am using an adapter out of the pressure switch right into a 1/2npt 2 way ball valve. Out of one port on the 2 way I run a 2ft flexilla whip hose into a milton filter/regulator duo to get rid of water and control pressure for certain tools while being portable. The second port I will have a Prevost 1/2npt coupler directly threaded on so I can run tools unregulated with FULL pressure for those times where you need the MAX amount of air. I will eventually also build a air cooler setup on the wall behind where the compressor sits in the garage so I can run a flexilla whip hose from the unregulated Prevost port to a more elaborate wall mounted air cooler/drainage system so I can cool air even more and add extra water filter and drains for things like painting or blasting where you need to really control the moisture in your air lines. The cooler/moisture trap system is probably over kill for this 30 gallon but it won't go to waste because I can hook up a larger 60 gallon unit to it easily later since its there. 30 gallon is probably stretching it anyway for air hungry tools.

i4Ni C thanks so much for all the good information really helpful. I already order my tornador . I currently have a 21 gal. 2.5 HP 125 PSI Air compressor do you think i be ok ?

haha- right

@@DetailGroove what about using a soft white drill brush?

@@DetailGroove APC?? Whats that exactly my guy. Lls im lost

@@ThePREVisionz All purpose cleaner - APC

Haha- thanks Cherril

You can do it yourself Carol. You need a cleaner like Super Clean (or something simliar), a brush, and microfiber towels. Spray the cleaner onto the seats, agitate with the brush, and then use the towel to mop it up

lmao

Lol

It's possible if you take it to the extreme

Which is why you need to still take caution and use a pH neutral APC

It'd be the same process :)

Princess Nugget that sounds disgusting

N G it’s just a couple of lines

Sameeeeee

I guess you can try makeup remover

Yikes, I'll need to make a video on that

Re-smoke it with a better fragrance. I've used arabic "oud" (from sandalwood), it smell like a nice old wooden fragrance. Much better than cigarette

The only way to fully extract it is with an ozone machine

My car was used and they were a smoker to

Lol

Well you would use that same method throughout the entire headliner. The only time I touch a headliner is when it's dirty. Most of the time, it's just dirty in small sections

Detail Groove yesterday i did one spot in my headliner, the dirt came out but also the fabric fall down 😢😭

Yeah, if it's old then you have to be careful. Especially if other parts of the headliner are already falling

Detail Groove @“well…sections” that’s not efficient on larger vehicles

All Purpose Cleaner. 10:1= semi strong, 4:1= strong... Depending on the product you're using

thanks!

Detail Groove where can I purchase the APC?

Those are a little tricky. You can find coffee specific cleaners

Ahahhaa cool!

Exactly!!

I need to watch what I say in comments...lot of unstable people can get ideas. I keep forgetting that LOL!

I'm not sure but you knew what I was talking about right... lol

Haha- yep!

Haha thanks

Ahh, dang it

Betty Rose what product do you recommend?

lmfao

Repenting of sins to be saved is not biblical. The law does not justify us unless we keep it perfectly. Romans 3:20 (KJV) Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin. Eternal salvation is by grace alone, 2 Timothy 1:9 (KJV) Who hath saved us, and called [us] with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, And we are justified by faith alone Romans 5:1 (KJV) Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

@@_risen I don’t think you know what repentance is. Repentance is the changing of the mind/heart. When you repent of sin, you realize the severity of sin in the eyes of God. If you were converted you realized that your sin is so serious that God the Father punished God the Son instead of us. Sin is so serious that God came down in the flesh so that we can be forgiven through faith. If you go to a lost person, they may know the story of Jesus and what He did, but they don’t understand really what happened on that cross because they have not repented/changed their view of sin. Now with that being said, faith is dead without works as described in the Bible. For example, if you were sitting in a chair in a building, you are probably relaxed and calm. If someone tells you that there is a fire or you see smoke, you will jump up and get out hastily. What happened is that your mind changed about your well being. Repentance is when you understood in your mind that you were in danger, as a result your actions changed completely. That’s not the best example but it gets that point through. Above all of these, it clearly says it in the Word. “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭3‬:‭19‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭2‬:‭5‬ ‭ “I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭13‬:‭3‬ ‭

@@Believer1427 None of those 3 scriptures you shared mention "repent of your sins" repent means a change of mind. You change your mind from unbelief to belief, take a look at what repent means here Matthew 21:32 (KJV) For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen [it], *repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.* Also there is no "God the Son", there is one God.. the Father. 1 Corinthians 8:6 (KJV) But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him. Romans 15:6 (KJV) That ye may with one mind [and] one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 1:17 (KJV) That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: John 17:3 (KJV) And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. Acts 2:36 (KJV) Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:19 (KJV) To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. James 2 is not talking about works of the law to be saved, that would then contradict all of the Pauline epistles. Romans 4:2 (KJV) For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof] to glory; but not before God. Romans 4:5 (KJV) But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Titus 3:5 (KJV) Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Jesus is the one who starts the good work in us, we didn't choose him but he chose us. John 6:29 (KJV) Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. Philippians 1:6 (KJV) Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform [it] until the day of Jesus Christ: John 15:16 (KJV) Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. He chose us before the foundation of the world Ephesians 1:4-5 (KJV) 4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, Also without the rebirth, we are ensnared by the devil. That is why God must grant us repentance to the acknowledging of the truth. 2 Timothy 2:25-26 (KJV) 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And [that] they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. Matthew 11:27 (KJV) All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and [he] to whomsoever the Son will reveal [him]. John 14:17 (KJV) [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

@@_risen God is made up of three. “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭5‬:‭7‬ ‭KJV‬‬ We know that the Word refers to Jesus Christ. “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭14‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “I and my Father are one.” ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭30‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬ The Word is God and has been forever. Jesus( the Son/Word) and God are one as Jesus said and is described in the Bible Jesus was crucified because He claimed to be God,and He is.

@@Believer1427 1 John 5 says *these three are one*. One what? One spirit. 1 John 5:6-7 (KJV) 6 This is he that came by water and blood, [even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. *And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.* 7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. John 14:17 (KJV) *[Even] the Spirit of truth;* whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. The Word is not the Son of God, no scripture ever says that. It says the Word was God. John 1:1 (KJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 (KJV) And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. God was in Christ, God was manifest in the flesh. The Word was in the Son, the Word of life was manifested. 1 John 1:1-2 (KJV) 1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; 2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen [it], and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) 2 Corinthians 5:19 (KJV) To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 1 Timothy 3:16 (KJV) And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. John 10 does not teach a trinity, it is talking about God and his Son being one because they are one. God is in the Son and the Son is in God. The fulness of the Godhead dwells in the Son. Colossians 2:9 (KJV) For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. John 17:21 (KJV) That they all may be one; as thou, Father, [art] in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. John 14:9-10 (KJV) 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father? 10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. Jesus was crucified because he said he is the Son of God. John 19:7 (KJV) The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God. God is one. God is a Spirit. Not a man. 1 Timothy 2:5 (KJV) For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Galatians 3:20 (KJV) Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one, but God is one. 1 Corinthians 12:5 (KJV) And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. Ephesians 4:4-6 (KJV) 4 [There is] one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who [is] above all, and through all, and in you all. Hosea 11:9 (KJV) I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I [am] God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city. Isaiah 43:11 (KJV) I, [even] I, [am] the LORD; and beside me [there is] no saviour. John 4:24 (KJV) God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.

Woot!
