Dodge Avenger- Worst Interior to Date

[Reflections]

Every once and a while you get a job that just shocks you... and not the way you want to be shocked when you're approached for a "it's not too bad" interior detail.

The photos show pretty well what we were up again. In this case, the scrubber attachment on the PC was my saving grace to break down the grit and grim in the carpet. The car was littered with soda, juice, cooking grease and other undetermined stains- not to mention the layers or dust, dirt, and rocks all over the place. So here's what we're looking at...

Ok, so now let's start turning this thing around- Carpet shampoo, citrus degreaser, APC+, and a few other cleaning chemicals.

I hadn't done the seat belts yet due to time constraints on the rest of the interior.

That's all folks! Hope you like.

Excellent turnaround, did you do it by hand or use a steamer or extractor to achieve the results. Thanks for posting and sharing.

[CriticalDetails]

Interiors like this make me feel bad for my carpet extractor. I bet the interior smells a whole lot nicer now. Excellent turnaround.

[greatwhitenorth]

Looks way better good job!
Hope it won't look like before in a week

Thanks! I used a PC7424XP with Carpet Brush attachment to agitate then extracted.


Interiors like this make me feel bad for my carpet extractor. I bet the interior smells a whole lot nicer now. Excellent turnaround. Mine too, I actually had to run water through it to remove any possible residue that might have not passed through clearly. Couldn't imagine the residual smell!


Looks way better good job!
Hope it won't look like before in a week I certainly hope not!

[sproketser]

That was some kind of sh!t in there ! Great job .

What products did you used !

[QuantumX]

:awman: That actually looks like a rental return! With the "No respect for others" mentality out there people can really trash a vehicle.

Great job!

I never thought about it, but now that I do, my worst interiors are almost always people who specifically request interior only.

It think it's because these people don't care about the appearance of their car. It just gets to the point that it's so gross that they can't stand it anymore.

[noslef]

What a mess but you did an awesome job cleaning up!

[DetailedTaco]

Wow amazing results!
