I vote the dirtiest interior on the planet.

So last week I get a call from a lady that works at the local Edward Jones investment office that I dropped some cards off at. Her "other" job is saving animals and they end up riding in her 2001 Saturn (can you see where this is headed)?

Well today, I had some free time and she wanted me to work on it from her lunch hour until she got off at 4pm. We agreed that it would get a full interior detail and I would charge the regular full detail price, which includes the 1 step buff, clay, wash, vac, windows, etc.

Time to complete: 3.5 hours

Payment: $130

Products used:

5 hp/4 gallon Craftsman Clean N Carry wet/dry vac
about 25 oz of a 32oz bottle of 303 spot remover
Woolite/Water 1:8
Optimum protectant plus
Stoner invisible glass aerosol with a sonus yellow glass towel
Various brushes and a ton of elbow grease

The before pics are scary, I'm, warning you that if you ate recently, you might throw up. The afters were taken in the garage because it was pouring out, sorry.

Floor Mats before


Floor mats after


Passenger front before


Passenger front after


Angled interior before


Driver's front after


More grossness before



Rest of afters



This pic is just of the florr area, seat obviously not done, and keep in mind a lot of these stains were urine and things that have been there for a lonng time, so I did my best not having an extractor.

Yep, sure did, and though it doesn't *really* foam, it does just enough that I had to drench a small area (say 5x5") with a spray bottle of water and then quickly vaccum up the water and the little bit of foam. Otherwise, the seats would dry course. Kind of stinks that the 303 spot remover is 8 bucks a bottle and I used almost the whole thing. Oh well, for every one like this, there's other cars where I'm sure I'll only use 10 oz or so.

Lol thanks Al. Whatever was growing in the rugs, went up my nose or something because my alleriges are driving me up the wall now. hehe

I give her credit because she works with the pet shelter non profitly. And uses her own vehicle to transport these homeless pets. As long as she "attempts" to keep it decent, I'll be happy haha.
