LI Detailers :: And The 2009 Dirtiest Car Award Goes To...

[imported_PaPaHoFF1]

This customer was looking for a polish and the car to be cleaned up. He was in florida working and the car was sitting at his families house for 3 years. He said it was being used so I figure how bad could it be.. Boy was I wrong.. The car was FILTHY and stunk to the high heavens. I wound up throwing away all of my clothes and towels / wash mitt used on this car. It took me 3 hours just to wash the car and 6 hours for the whole process. The family had no idea he didnt tell me it was in this condition and asked if I wanted to leave (I should have lol). All in all the customer received a Wash, clay and wax on the interior and I substituted the polish for a carpet extraction on the interior. The leather on the car was so cracked and torn that it looks permanently dirty.

[imported_bigfoot1]

My God! Back to life! Great job!

 

[rwisejr]

That was down right filthy .I probably would have left that thing alone.That was a potential bio hazard. Good job !!!

 

[MrCLRider]

That was just disgusting!



Good job bringing it back.

 

[vtec92civic]

great save . . . . . that was seriously what i call soiled dirt. ow can people let there money sit and get to that point?

 

[jswift2000]

Great job and fantastic turn around.



what the he!! was wrong with that train wreck? Did they leave the windows open for 3 years.

 

[ryotto]

Aside from the headlights, the exterior came out pretty good. I surprised you made it look that much better for only 6 hours considering how bad everything was.

 

[xjonmo]

wow. props for even taking the job

 

[MarcHarris]

you're tougher than me: i wouldn't have touched it!

nice turn around - I hope the owner appreciates your services

 

[Double Dizzle]

Somebody was actually driving that thing around in that condition??!!



One of the biggest turnarounds I have ever seen for sure.

 

[ten39]

Wow, that thing looked like some sort of a flood recovery that still somehow ran.



Nice job!

 

[Carticular]

WOW, wow, wow!!! Great work!!

 

[imported_artikxscout]

gross, i wish i could just throw the car in the washing machine.

 

[bigfish528]

Excellent job you definitely deserve a bio-hazard award if there were such a thing.

Looks like they drove through a hurricane or 2 with the windows down.

 

[Crandallion]

Wow, amazing. Did they bring it home from the junk yard and have you detail it?

 

[imported_OrangeStang]

It never ceases to amaze me that at some point someone bought a nice new Camry with leather and then neglected it and abused it that badly.



I get that is a beige Camry which is probably they farthest thing from an enthusiast car you can own, but still. Have some pride of ownership.

 

[RSWIM21]

Great work. I guess it is the ultimate goal we all dream of. That neglect though is something we all cannot understand.

 

[blue-sun]

OMG . . .that thing was NASTY.
