Its finally nice to see some real detail jobs, not someone making a $100,000, 2 month old car look new again lol. This is the kind of stuff I do everyday, I see some things you missed but looks pretty good for doing it out of your garage. Steam cleaners own all on those kind of dirty cars.

Wait until you get people who do that to nicer cars. That'll make your blood curdle.

And there ARE people who do it to nice stuff.

Well at least it had leather! I couldn't imagine how bad it would be if it had cloth!
VERY nice work!

Yeah. I don't get it either.

I have people at work tell me all the time that I spend too much time cleaning my car. I tell them I don't. I just don't spend time getting it nasty.

Unfortunately this condition is not a priority for the owners of these cars.

Man that looks good for a honda after. I've seen a car way worse than that, a 2004 jeep liberty that the guy left the windows down for a year and worked on a farm. If you can imagine a 1" layer of manure and dust on everything...ugh.... there was a full package of ramen noodles in the shift boot.

Talk about a Daily Driver!! Damn!! I like that little design work that you did on the mats. Just how the house-cleaning ladies do to the carpet. Great job man. True detailing work..
