Detail:

 

  • Secure customer’s personals (loose change, sunglasses, pens,
    notepads, etc.) in Zip Loc bags and set aside.
  • Pre-treat door jambs, wheel wells, trunk jambs, frame rails, and
    grill with mild degreaser/cleaner.
  • Pressure wash all door jambs, wheel wells, trunk jambs, frame rails,
    grill, window seals, door seals, emblems, key holes, door handles, gas
    filler area.
  • Wash car  by hand with clean microfiber wash mitt and mild car wash
    detergent.  Scrub license plates clean with appropriate brushes and
    cleaners.

    assorted brushes and degreasers.  Pressure wash wheels and wheel well with 1500 psi of water.

    Cyclo
    polisher, mild compounding/polishing foam pad, and high gloss Klear Kote

    fade if vehicle is washed every 10-14 days.

    dressing.

    steam to bring embedded dirt to surface.  Inject high temperature water
    into carpet followed immediately with high suction steam from carpet
    shampooer.  Allow floor mats to air dry for 1 hour.
  • Using compressed air gun (90 psi), "blast" dust from vents, console,
    dash, under seats, between seats, upholstery seams, in crevices and hard
    to reach places, between seat cushions, into map pockets, into cockpit
    switches and controls, steering wheel gaps, trim pieces…anywhere
    fingers cannot clean.  Vacuum out resulting dust and dirt.

    Desiderio  vapor steamer

    here.

    facades) with appropriate cleaners and degreasers.

    clenaers.  Be sure to clean deep in seams, creases, along piping,
    and in map pockets.  Apply leather conditioner when dry.
  • Apply high foaming upholstery shampoo to cloth seats.  Scrub into a
    foam.  Extract clean with vapor steam and vacuum suction.
  • Clean all surfaces in trunk area.  Remove spot stains as necessary
    from trunk liner.  Lift trunk liner and vacuum/clean spare tire.  Push
    seats forward to vacuum crease where rear seats meet trunk.  Wipe clean
    trunk jambs and decklid.
  • Clean lower trim parts (door sills, lower seat sections, foot wells,
    door panels, map pockets, ash trays, door handles, door pulls, windows
    switches with appropriate cleaners and degreasers.
