I own a mobile Auto detailing business in Tampa, FL and I thought you guys would appreciate this detail I did recently.

This car was pretty bad. never been washed or waxed..

It literally had no shine. All haze and waterspots...

10 hours of work....

What do you use to clean the carpets? Could one just use a household carpet cleaner that most places rent?

I soaked the entire bay with a degreaser, agitated it with brushes, then pressure washed it off, then dressed. Bt I dont reccommend doing it yourself unless you are very very careful.

Yeah a good product is Folex. you can get it at Home Depot or Lowes. Mix it 50/50 with hot water and it works wonders....

How does this happen? What a filthy pig. I know they have kids and kids are messy, but damn!

We have 4 kids and I would vomit if I had to ride in that. I bet their house looks the same.
