Team Adam's Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Got my hands on a local guy's new-to-him 1999 SuperDuty. It has 164K miles on it, it was certainly evident, at least in the two areas that I attacked tonight. He's coming back in the spring time to get a full paint correction, so tonight I just did the interior and engine bay Products used: All-Purpose Cleaner - full strength and 1:1 mix. Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner Leather and Interior Cleaner VRT VRT "milk" In & Out Spray Glass Cleaner Tire & Fender Brush Carpet Brush Cheapie "really dirty job" brush Bissell Carpet Cleaner I sprayed the really bad spots in the carpet with a liberal helping of the CUC and agitated with the carpet brush. In the carpet cleaner, I used a 1:1 ratio of CUC and tap water, and went over all the carpets after I agitated in the previous step. It did an excellent job, as this was the first real test I've put the CUC through. It passed with FLYING colors! Let's start with the before pics, they speak for themselves: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Adam's Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 I've never came across carpet quite like that. The owner said the previous owners said it was "pop," but I thought it looked more like a crime scene! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Adam's Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 Thanks guys. Interiors are certainly not my favorite part of any vehicle to detail, but seeing the difference in the carpets from start to finish makes it all worth it!

6.0DSLPWR Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 If you dont mind me asking which bissell do you have? My gf just bought a 02 Ford Focus and the carpets look about the same as the ones in that truck so I am looking for a machine to clean carpets.
