Steamers - How do you use it?

[Nick McKees37]

For those of you that utilize some type of steamer with your detailing work, what do you use it for the most?

Please be specific!

For me its a go to tool when i detail engines but i use it mostly on soiled carpets/matts and fabric seats

Have used it under the hood where it latches and the springs (they had oil and grease on them and I want to re-lubricate them). Used on door jambs, soiled seats, and floors on interior. Used under and around Front Grill area.

That is all I can think of that I used steam on. May have used in other areas but it is to hot to think any harder, my brain will start sweating, LOL

Windows baby!!! Carpets, seats, leather, headliners, door panels, rubber stripping, tar on rocker panels, wheels sometimes, engines, wax on trim, door jams, jeez I could use it on everything!!

I can only pick one option in the poll? Not fair!

Let's see...

Interior:
* Stained carpets/mats/seats
* Cleaning consoles and cupholders
* Extremely dirty glass
* Air vents and dash seams

Door Jambs

Engines (never around electrical connectors/wiring)

Cleaning old wax/polish from panel gaps/etc.

There are all kinds of cool things you can do with steam!

It rocks on windows. Door jambs, sills, carpets, vents, engines...use on everything pretty much except the client.

Since this poll is on top of every thread I use I voted for other - because I don't own one.

Unless the client happens to be a lobster....
