Thanks for looking!
 
Thanks everyone, he wanted it cleaned up to sell and believes he already found a buyer the same day he picked it up. Finally glad to feel more like a member!
 
Great work! Can you explain your process for the rug cleaning? They appear to have come out very nicely even without an extractor.

First step vacuum, then I used a 10:1 Meg's APC+ with hot water in the little green machine. The key I believe is using hot water in the mix. The vehicle also had a smell that left after the cleaner was used.
 
Great job! Cool to see others starting out and doing a great job without high end equipment.



Thanks for posting the carpet stuff as I was wondering about that as well. Carpets are definitely my weak spot :(
 
Nice work on the interior. I just ordered the Danase Leather Rx to hopefully get rid of some denim discoloration on my leather seat.



Can you explain your leather cleaning process. I see that you list the 10:1 Woolite mix. Did you prep the leather with that prior to applying the Leather Rx? Also what tools did you use, to scrub/clean the leather surface? I'm hoping to get similar result.

Save yourself some money and use a 10:1 mix of wollite and water. Best thing goin for interior work! Cleans everything but glass. Plus a jug of woolite will last you a good long time!!
 
Mose: Woolite seems to stain the leather on a M Class mercedes.. don't know why .. had to use leatherique to clean it properly.

Yes the Woolite mix first, after I sprayed it I used a brush I purchase off of autogeek which is basically a horsehair brush. Then applied the Danase with a microfiber but I want to try a sponge next time.

Thanks for the reply. I don't have a horsehair brush, so I used a MF towel for the woolite mix, wiped it off with water damped MF and applied Danase. Worked good. :bigups
