    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...

    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.
