new poster`s first paid detail..02 Outback 56k=no

[Eurosport94]

She only wanted the interior detailed. And this is my first detail where it wasn`t just for a family member. I got paid for this one. **And also, the only products I used are regular old Target bought Meguiars/Mothers stuff(other stuff is to $$ for me...im only 20) and also a Bissel carpet vac



Before:

it wasn`t really TOO bad to start off with, its only used by an older lady. but some spots still needed attention. alot of dirt ont he carpets, and the dash/console need cleaned bad from spilled coke or something sticky like that. and the front seat backs had some shoe scuffs, and the leather needed a good conditioning

After:

Not too bad a result IMO, i think i did a good job. she was pleased with it. And it was my first time ever using a carpet cleaner. The whole job only took me bout an hour and a half.

Nice job, like you said it wasn`t too bad before but you`ve really freshened it up!



How did you get the scuff marks off the back of the seats?



Dave

[imported_Dave KG]

Lovely job there!

[Eurosport94]

the scuff marks came right off with the Meguiars Leather wipes...i was suprised they worked really well

[xTravBx]

I love that you used no frills OTC products. Stuff that in a pinch, anyone can go buy, if they run out of pro stuff. You were able to make some cash and do a full interior detail with them. Nice job.

[Scottwax]

Definitely looks better but you might also want to get a good spot cleaner, that stain by the middle hump between the back seats would probably come out with a spot cleaner. ;)

[Brian_Brice]

lol scott i saw that too. good lob though and i bet it felt good being able to charge someone(other than family) stoners carpet upholstery cleaner comes to mind, its otc for the most part i think, get a can of it or hot shot and go over bad areas with it first then reg shampoo. how long did it take you?

[buzzb]

Folex is awesome at removing carpet spots also and is available OTC. Nice improvement Eurosport94!

[Eurosport94]

thanks alot guys. its nice to see some good suggestions for a relatively new detailer! i`ll have to get pictures up of the car i detail all the time :)



it took me about an hour and a half to do everything. so not real bad if i do say so

[triDoN]

one small thing you could also do to give it that finishing touch is to buckle the rear seatbelts.

[Eurosport94]

oh yeah..i usually do that(do it for every car show im in) but forgot that time



thanks!!! :)
