So I’m still laid off , my neighbor kept bugging my to detail her truck (for years) and I finally caved...but I still charged her full price lol. People ask me why I charge so much, well because I take stuff apart to clean it. I never clean “around” stuff if possible. So there’s a little mechanic fee in there lol.
Btw I hate this color interiorCB647D06-DF08-47B8-AA5F-2EF9918A5902.jpeg79CD4FA9-D517-4611-9380-B6BFB562C76B.jpegC94DC1B8-4556-41C4-BF51-7E1AF77530F5.jpeg65EBD41A-59C6-41A5-ACE5-504EEEBF77CE.jpegE09F3D99-280C-4F4C-801E-6BA0E6593D85.jpeg

The red didn’t come out, expected. But I’m surprised how clean the rest of the carpet came out even tho I didn’t have access to a shampoo/extractor

Had a Denali with that color interior and hated it. You got it looking rather spiffy.

What's the story on the neighbors truck? Any better shots of that?

Make sure to polish all window trim. This will bring life back to the plastic and keep it from fading and cracking later View attachment 252436View attachment 252438
Thanks so much for showing this detail mod. I have owned my Tahoe since 2004 and never thought about doing this. I hit all 4 of mine today with some 3M #1 compound and then a coat of Meguiar's cleaner wax. I stood back and was totally AMAZED.

I pulled a Dave Detail moment today while working on my clients 2013 suburban. Lol. The idea of taking things apart to clean them helped me clean underneath third row seats in her burb where the brackets that mount the seats to the truck are. So much crud built up under there! And I was so proud to be able to clean that out thanks to @05Single ’s idea! Haha
