The owner wanted this truck looking brand new :) first off I figured this would be an easy one day job. Boy was I wrong... Dirt everywhere you could see, seats, interior panels, carpet and on top of that leftover wax residue on all the trim making this an even longer detail. In the end this truck looked top notch from when I first got a hold of it. Hope you enjoy.

Wow this is a good example of how nicely Floor liners contain dirt! I have a set in my car and love them!
Nice good on the detail Dustin. :buffing:

Do you also use them to contain your Beech-Nut chew? Just wondering. :D

Dustin - nice cleaning on that truck!

How do you like that Bissel? Is it a good value in your opinion? Pro's/Con's?

nice job it amazes me how people let there trucks get that bad

When I started detailing, I had a lot of 90 model chevy trucks took me 6+ hours for just doing the "basic" clean up for the inside. I have plenty of business now to charge for the dirtier cars and trucks. Thanks Bill

Nice work, it turned out great!

Thanks JJ :props:

I highly recommend my customers to order all season floor mats for their car. Two of my customers have and the others..... well they get a little more on their bill for carpet cleaning.

I counted I think 20 empty bags of beechnut, it was like easter egg hunting with beechnut bags haha.

I love my Bissel machine for $109 for the pro heat version best money Ive spent. If I had to do it again I would get the original version without the pro heat. Cheaper 2

Pro:
Very lightweight
Great suction
Easy to Use
Very affordable

Cons:
Leaves the carpet damp (thats when an Absorber comes in handy)
Short hose
