Wow. Was that car being driven in that condition? Or has it been sitting?

If you're dealing with mold, I hope you're taking every Personal Protection precaution you can, and charging the customer accordingly...

Yeah maybe Lysol and air it out before you start

That is definatelly not enough!

When dealing with molds, respirator mask is the bare minimum and I would not do it without a suit either.

This is why I don't accept moldy cars jobs. I don't want to work in that kind of environment.

I believe she was driving it like that and then it sat for a month or two. The mother passed away. Not to be a (?) but I don’t think the car helped her.

Dude, seriously... be careful. You at least have a mask on, right ?

True, I imagine it can be pretty invasive

Wore a mask, safety glasses and gloves.

This was one pass after putting all purpose cleaner, using a brush to agitate and then wiping.

Charged her $190. Took me about an hour and a half.

In addition to the respirator- I’m throwing away a pair of shorts and shirt. Numerous microfibers. which I added into the price. This lady basically wanted it vacuumed and wiped down. Didn’t want the seats or floors shampooed. Also need to get a new filter for the vacuum too. From the time I got there, unloaded, started and packed up and was gone was an hour and a half. Spent a little over an hour inside cleaning.

90 mins? It takes me 5 hours to do a complete interior detail on a car that has no mold in it... how do you do that in 90 minutes?

90 minutes? There's absolutely no way you could do a good job in 90 minutes. I guess you said you didn't really "clean" it. Frankly, if I wasn't allowed to do that job properly, I would have walked away. No way I'm putting my name on that unless it's done right.

Because she was cheap af and didn’t want to spend more then $150. Lol. Usually takes me 4-6 hours on dirty cars
