Thanks for all the added info man...really good stuff. If you do do a write up on taking seats etc out...could you post a link here since im subscribed to this thread:xyxthumbs:

I dont think i'll go for 4000 PSI but I am going to go for 3000. I saw a pretty nice looking refurbished Honda 3000 PSI at the HD the other day for $300...im kinda glad i held off a little longer on getting my gas PW cause this stanley electric i have has GOT to go...so i might snag it...i was gonna get the homelite PW from HD at 3000 psi...but i kinda trust the Honda name a bit more...

Yeah i thought so too. Plus if i return my stupid stanley one to HD...thats $140 towards that PW...then add in a 10% discount coupon i have and it looks like i've got a damn good PW for very cheap lol. I like 2nd hand stuff and refurbished items:dblthumb2:
 
I still believe more people will pay for an interior correction over an exterior correction. It is something to specialize in.

I didn't really set out to "specialize" in interior's, but apparently that's where my market is at. I have found very few people who really care about swirl-free paint (even on high end and collector cars). Of course there are some, but I have had quite a few interior only jobs.

So I agree with you Al - for my market at least anyhow.

And to those guys who say any monkey with the right set of tools can clean an interior, well, you are pretty much right. But to take an interior to it's fullest potential and to make the deserved amount of payment for services rendered...

People will pay for what they get above and beyond the local car wash jockeys. I am not going to argue (and not trying to) that it takes the same level of skill that polishing paint to perfection takes (because it doesn't). However, there are particular skills that can make a person better at interior's.

Just wondering, where did you buy that attachment from that you used on the ceiling covering?

Wills - it is just a common Shop Vac nozzle/head. You can pick them up at Lowe's or probably even HD (Husky Brand). The one I posted was from Amazon's store.

I agree that it does take time and patience and even skill to do interiors. Like you said NO it is not as hard as perfecting paint..not at all...BUT it is not EASY either lol. And I've done interiors with sub-par tools when first starting out and still got excellent results. Good tools do make it EASIER to get great results but still if you give a 'dont give a damn' person a $1000 extractor and $700 pressure washer and the best chemical cleaners known to man, it still wont add up to what 100% passion will give you.
 
What products do you use on headliners? I find it really had to get them 100% and they are extremely hard because its all above head work. Any suggestions? Thanks!
