This WRX belongs to one of my old high school buddies. He wanted his interior cleaned. His main concern was the seats. They had lots of stains and even epoxy glue. The rest of the interior was in good shape. So I cleaned the seats and carpets with folex and Bissell Proheat auto. He had clayed the car 2 weeks ago with Megs clay kit and waxed it with Turtle Wax Ice. He wanted something a little better so we went with Collinite 845. Also after I was done my uncle wanted me to wash & wax his nissan truck it also received Colli 845

Vaccum
Seats and Carpets- Folex with Bissell Proheat
Dash and Door panels- CG Inner Clean
Wash-CG CW&W
Wheels-CG Diablo
Tires-Zep Citrus
Tire Dressing-Pearl
Wax- Collinite 845

Thanks for Looking. Feedback highly appreciated
 
Nice job!

I finally got a LGM pro-heat and some Folex. Haven't tried it on seats yet, but the water looked like that when I did the truck carpet after only a year (13,000 miles), and it's been vacuumed regularly.

Nice job!
As to the epoxy, I think it is "for life": you can try acetone but acetone also has a staining potential...
Another possible way is to freeze it rock hard so that you can try to break it into small pieces (this is the McGyver way...).

It got so dirty because of his job. he also got the glue from work its always stuck on his clothes. I told him to put seat covers during the work week.

Agreed! I do mine a couple times a week! Having a dust-free dash and clean seats just makes me feel like the car is new every time I get in :)

I take that back I only like them when im only doing the interior which was the case here. I dont like doing them when there I also have to do correction or polish, then is kinda annoying. :buffing:
