The inside of this van was a wreck there was trash everywhere and stains on every surface. To get this job done we removed all the seats and gave it a good vacuum.

Then we used an ammonia mixture and made 3 passes around the plastics inside each time agitating with interior brushes.

Then to rehydrate the plastic used Meguires interior dressing with UV protectants (Texas Heat will kill Plastic)

For the stains we used a stronger ammonia mix saturated each stain and agitated them using detail pro electric brushes.

For the engine we started first by blowing all the leafs and crap out of the cracks on top of the strut mounts. We then used DealerMagic degreaser and a variety of agitating brushes to remove the rest of the dirt and oil. Then dressed the engine bay with DealerMagic dressing.

First of all....... I think you did an amazing job. You rescued that van from the dead.
What products were used? Were you able to get that nasty stain out of the rear seat?

Thank you for the welcome and i used several products but mainly used dealermagic degreaser and dressing for under the hood just took some persistence and i used the ammonia mix for the inside to treat the stains. and i used mothers synthetic wax for the exterior im not a big name person so i have a wide variety of products that i use Meguires, Mothers, Adams, DealerMagic those are the big names.
As for that crazy stain in the seat we were able to get them all out every seat in the van had stains like the one in the pic it took a good 3 hrs to get all the stains treated.

WOW. PROPS! How much did you charge if you don't mind my asking?

[swanicyouth]

Nice job! It looks like someone had an "accident" on that seat. Any problems with the airbag light coming on when pulling the seats out? The exterior looks in nice shape for being a 1995.
