What are your favorite tools for interior detailing?

[Kristopher1129]

Tornador, Mytee Lite II, long neck air gun, and my Mcculloch Steamer. Couldn't do my job without those tools. Well, I could...but I wouldn't enjoy it, ha. :dblthumb2:

Kristopher: Which Mcculloch steamer do you use?

I just spent 10 hours today cleaning the interior my mom's van. I know if I had an extractor it would of cut the time by half. I'm very interesting in hearing what other tools people like to clean interiors with.

Not sure what the model is exactly. I know I only paid $100 for it. For what I use it for...it's all I need.

I'll upgrade in the future. But I've been nothing but happy with it. If it dies on me...which I'm sure it will, I'll upgrade then.

Most likely the 1275.

The BR-3 Detail Brush from PRO Car Beauty has become my favorite interior brush. A good friend gave me a couple of brushes after visiting his local PRO distributor because he knows that I am a detailing brush junky. Out of the many dozen brushes that I have I'd be lost without this particular brush. It looks like a 1 1/2 inch paint brush with 3/4 inch long bristles and has obsoleted all my other brushes.

I have a Cyclo polisher with the white carpet brushes screwed into where the pad holders go that I use for scrubbing carpets and wouldn't want to be without it as it is a HUGE time saver. I combine this with a hand held kitchen scrub brush (that could be used for cleaning glasses or cups) for cleaning in and around the seat tracks and under the seats.

I just picked up the professional 40 ounce spray bottles from ACE Hardware and think they are worth every penny of the $6 price tag. Though I have not used them with any acid based wheel cleaners (before anyone asks) as the alkaline based cleaner I have works better and safer than most acid based cleaners.

My Mom was fretting about paying back some money that I gave her so I gave her a bunch of my Poorboy's World DMTs and had her fold them in half and sew 2 sides up for me so that I could slip them over my hand and use them for cleaning windows. They work awesome down in the lower corners of the windshield where space is limited because I can keep my hand open and use either the palm side or the back side of my hand to clean with, not to mention that Mom feels better about taking the money which was never meant to be a loan in the first place.

Today is her day by the way so guys and gals... Don't forget about Mom!!!

I just bought a 6 gallon 150 Psi. oil-less air compressor and 25' retractable air hose reel to hook up inside my van for blowing out dirt and dust from under seats & tracks and in between console and seats etc. but haven't been able to set it up yet. It should be a time saver.
