Gross! What's the dirtiest car you have ever seen?
I can never understand how people get their car so dirty.
Whenever I clean my gfs car (I’ll wipe down the interior like monthly) I always come back inside and ask her “how the hell do you get your interior so dusty????”
I can go months without even wiping mine down and it doesn’t get nearly as bad as hers.
Same thing when I clean seats for someone and I find massive amounts of crumbs embedded in all the seams. The hell you doin? How do you even get so many crumbs on the seat??? It’s like they’re crumbling up pretzels and sitting on them.
Edit: I guess I should say idk how people get their personal vehicles that dirty. Work trucks and stuff like that.. I just expect those to be pretty dirty.

Re: Gross! What's the dirtiest car you have ever seen?
Heck the inside ( or outside for that matter)of my Honda isn't as clean as it should be given what I do for a living but it ain't that bad,I bought in Dec and I am just to busy with projects to do anything to it
the finish is trashed as it has 110,000 miles and probably has never been waxed.
I plan to do it soon,,I buffed a scratch out of the fender today and noticed that the black paint has different colored metallic chips in it,,real pretty,,but I couldn't tell before it was so hammered.
the bodymans car is the last to get fixed,the mechanics car is last to get it's routine service and the detailers car is the last to get cleaned I guess.

I’m with you. We don’t eat in our car, but seriously how do the cars get so dirty.
One thing we obsessed detailers have to keep in perspective is a lot of families use their vehicle like a “work” vehicle. To them it is just transportation and raising a family with kids is a lot of work. With that said, everyone knows how to operate a vacuum and has a bottle of 409 in their house

There's no way I could have done it. The car would have left worse than it came in like, because it would have vomit on top of maggots. I can't handle maggots. I have a pretty strong stomach till it comes to maggots.

When I was a VW Tech I had a 20,000 mile service on a Beetle Turbo. It had just under 20 on it, and about 1" deep cigareet ash on the entire floor and seats. It was literally an ash tray. Needless to say they didn't get their pollen filter replaced, as I would've had to crawl in it. Nope, wasn't happening. People are disgusting.

Because that customer would be very concerned with breathing in that harmful, improperly filtered, pollen filled air
