Well I opened up my detailing season with hands down the worst interior of a car to date. Not only was the car a mess the meteorologist screwed up the forecast (imagine that) and it was cold. I left my brushes out after I washed the car and they were frozen solid. Normally I don't post the pictures from a basic wash, wax and interior but I had to show this one because of the inside and the amount of popcorn that was in the backseat. Pretty sure it was an entire bag. Be advised I am not responsible for anything that happens to the viewer after they see the pictures :shock: . Here we go.

The befores

Holy crap, what a mess. How long did it take you? The inside of the hood, how do you do those?

Nice work.

Larry
 
WOW!!!!! Some people would just stop what they are doing and start crying.. lol Where do you even start on something like that and how do you even let a car get to that point??!

Great work!

Thanks. It took a little under 6 hours.

I used Meg's Super Degreaser and agitated with a brush.

Great work!

Thanks. I about did myself when I opened the door lol. I started on the outside and then started sweeping and more sweeping and more sweeping lol. I followed that with cleaning the panels then went to work on the carpets and seats.
 
That car looked like a rolling Bio Hazard. Doesn't all that food attract mice and bugs ??? Gross. Nice save.

I took a shower immediately after I was done because I felt gross. I didn't find anything that would led me to believe there were bugs or mice in there but who knows with the amount of trash I pulled out of it.
 
That car owner should be embarrassed. I don't consider detailing cleaning up someone's trash unless we are talking about swirled paint and stained interiors. Leaving popcorn and wrappers is just unacceptable.

Great work, better man than I!
 
Whatever the owner paid you, it wasn't enough. Great job.
 
I agree with the above... you needed decontamination after rolling around in this puppy; whatever they paid, it was not enough; those people should be embarrassed....

Great save! Good documentation for prosperity and you sir put the Oh! in Ohio:props:
 
Oh you should have charged DOUBLE on that , great job !
 
OK I'm curious, how much did you charge for that job?

AMAZING job btw!
 
YOU owe me a lunch..I lost mine.....hahahahha, That was one messy job, some detailers would have just passed on that one, I am sure of it. Great job, well done.

Tom
 
Im a little ashamed to say it but........yeah I think i would have turned that one down. But then again cars like that are excellent for before and afters. Great job on the decon job, er um I mean detail!
 
I'm imagining three kids screaming, bouncing off the windows and roof with all that caffeine and candy :bump2:

Nice work man!

Thanks. I couldnt imagine dropping off a car in that shape for someone to work on.

Whatever the owner paid you, it wasn't enough. Great job.

Lol thanks.

$150 which probably isnt even close to enough. Took me 5 1/2 hours total.

I warned you lol. Thanks!

Nice work man!

Hit the nail on the head. She does have 3 kids and the back window was covered in nasty crap.
 
Omg multi layers of crap to go through. Nice recovery!!! A new tool to add to arsenal......hazmat suit!
