    Moldy Interior (link)

    I was on Jalopnik - Drive Free or Die today and came across this crazy story on a 2002 Audi.
    An amazing write-up from a Detailer in NJ. Unbelievable transformation.

    Whilst it does seem impressive, without complete interior removal (seats,carpets,headliner, doorpanels, dash, vents...) that car still has millions of mold spores left behind

    It does look much better though. Give the man a trophy

    My initial feeling was torch it.Then I thought ,was this car detailed for sale purposes? I sure hope not.

    Have to give the detailer major props?? For visiting the jungle that day.Wonder if he didnt get some rare 3rd world infection from this job.

    Re: Moldy Interior (link)

    After looking at the mouldy interior on that Audi, I had gotten really concerned about the interiors of my love!!

    So I bought a portable De-humidifier for keeping it in the interiors.



    I hope nothing of this sort ever happen to anyone!!
