Hey Team,

We often get jobs like the interior on this work ute come into our shop and although daunting at first sight we relish the opportunity to take up the challenge and impress the customer with the finish result!

With a combination of some good ol' hard yakka, vaccuming, steaming, extracting and scrubbing we managed to turn this ute around to almost its former glory.

Enjoy the pictures -

Wow, I'd be afraid of what might be hiding under the seat:)

That interior had so much dust and dirt inside. How much time did you have in that interior?

You made that look like a new vehicle.
 
That's scary. Great job!! Did you remove the seats?

Thanks Buster906. :xyxthumbs:

As LEDetailing spotted in another thread, it is indeed a Holden.

Jobs like these ones are quite common for me, seems I'm the only one willing to try but I honestly enjoy them, they're rewarding, & they pay well. Time wise - around four & a half hours. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

A good vacuum & half the job is done, looks worse than it was.

Misterpaul answered that one for me whilst we were all sleeping down here. Yep, "hard yakka" means "hard work" down under. :xyxthumbs:

Thanks Bill. :xyxthumbs:

Sure is, although sometimes when I run back over the photos, its hard to tell. Actually doing the job you forget how bad it was because you're slowly progressing through it, instead of instant before & afters.

Thank you hoyt66. :xyxthumbs:

No, not on this one. Not very often I remove seats, with the tools etc 99% of the time I can reach under & around seats & rails pretty well but if it was a drastically bad job - out they come.

Aussie/NZ slang for hard work and from the before and after there's been a lot of yakka spent on that interior.
Great work Aaryn!

That is amazing. I always appreciate those who do great interior detailing. I have never enjoyed it the way I have doing washing and waxi g or paint correction. Hopefully your client was blown away and his word of mouth along with the before and afters here get you a ton more work. I know I'd come running if I needed some interior work if I was nearby.
 
Heck yeah, you DID it! Nice work, Aaryn and I have no doubt the owner was blown away. It's those more dramatic conditions that show the biggest difference. Yes, a lot more "yakka" but stunning transformation.

These ones are fun, I enjoy the challenge, & live in hope that the client will be blown away with the result. Thanks mate.

There is only one problem... the steering wheel is still on the wrong side! :)

Great work!!! Nice Turnaround...

Hehehe, thank you LSNAutoDetailing. :xyxthumbs:

Funny you mention that, I had a left hand drive 6speed manual Mustang in the shop on Friday, & that in itself is weird enough but I figured I did alright - I only got in the right/wrong side once when shifting it! :dblthumb2: This is why I chose not to drive when we came over for Boot Camp in Jan 2015, because not only are the cars back-to-front, you drive on the wrong side of the road too!!!

The owner was indeed a very happy man. Pictures are a vital tool in this game ( https://www.autogeekonline.net/foru...ke-great-before-shots-before-working-car.html ) & worth the extra few minutes it takes to capture them. Thank you for the kind words my friend.

Yeah buddy, "nailed it". Very true, the so called "easy" jobs are at times the hardest ones. A tidy vehicle is hard to make look much different. At least with these ones, once its been vacuumed it already looks 100 times better. Thanks Paul, appreciate your comments.
