A friend of mine had inquired about where to get his car detailed since he was getting ready to sell it. I told him that I would be willing to take care of it for him at a discounted price. Little did I know you should look at the car before discounting any prices, lol. The car was a 2003 Jeep Liberty. Pen marks and stains on the front seats, blue marker or or something on the rear seats, and both front and back suffering from some pretty bad discoloration/dirt. Every area of the carpet was pretty dirty. Stains, dirt, wine stains and the like were everywhere. Exterior was in pretty bad shape as well. The clay bar had trouble moving even w/ the clay lube! He had also been bumped into, so there was some paint transfer along w/ some missing clear coat (which he’ll obviously have to get repainted). Anyway, here’s the pics. Let me know what you think! ( I wish I had taken more/better pics of the before, and probably could’ve used some better after pics as well, but hey, I’m no photographer 



Process was the usual, vacuum, prestone/stoners/303 fabric cleaner for the carpets. Seats had to get lexol, 303 and even some p21s total care to remove the marker stains! Doors/panels was also taken care of by the p21s. Exterior was a wash/clay/wash/ssr2.5, ssr1, menz glaze, then used some pinnacle sov carnuba to top it off. I used some menz. Polish on the paint transfer as well to help remove that. Well, again, let me know how I did  :usa

Thanks! I used up my remaining prestone carpet cleaner that I had laying around. Then started w/ stoners carpet cleaner to get some of the dirt/debris up and finished it off w/ 303 :2thumbs:
 
Amazing turn around, the dirt seemed to just drip off those seats. Paint looks excellent as well.



I'd say you did very well goodjob :2thumbs:
 
Thanks for the compliments guys :) Unfortunately no tip...He is a friend, so I wouldnt expect it anyway. out of curiousity, what do you think a job like this would pay? I'll tell you what I got after a few responses, but, in my mind, I should've got 2x what I did had i not known him. It did take 10-11 hours in total. :)

I tried using lexol as much as i could. I started out w/ it, but whatever it didnt take out, I went to 303 fabric cleaner. If that still didnt take it out (which is did except for a few spots), I used p21s total wash.
