Can't seem to get over how many of the owners don't take the time to, at least, remove all the loose stuff before bringing the vehicle over to you. Kind of feel that it speaks volumes about their character.
On the contrary, I wouldn't be surprised if he asks his customers to leave their cars as is for better video content. Judging by the number of outrageous cars he gets, I just assume he puts out discounted/free offers to people who wouldn't normally pay to get their cars cleaned in exchange for him posting these to TH-cam.
@@Epyon00 yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if he just says leave it as is. I’m guessing he tells them to take personal things they can find but leave most of the thing as they were.
I was raised more poor than a church mouse... one thing my parents forced into our heads, "it doesn't take money to be clean" really helped us out in life.
But you cannot judge people and their cleanliness without knowing their situation. Would you tell something like that to someone who is depressed or sick?
@@lizzmil If you are depressed,CLEAN!!! Moving around is a natural depression healer!! If you're depressed,if you move around and clean your home and vehicle you feel better and less depressed!!! It might even cure your depression..Its laziness,slop,pig to be messy! Go clean up stop making excuses! Now,if you are injured,crippled or in pain and cant do large cleaning tasks thats a different story! But i know a person in a wheel chair and they personally keep their home and vehicle clean!! Yes they drive with hand controls..
This video truly shows the difference between an average detailer and THE Detail Geek. With nail polish in seats, most would say that won’t come perfect and there’s no way to make it look new. I just love how Mitch looks at anything no matter how hard or time consuming and completely transforms it even better than new. Insane amount of respect for a detailer like himself. Good job man.
Great video. You did an immaculate job. Whoever the owner is should be out right ashamed of themselves. I’d be so embarrassed Great video thanks for posting.
As a former automotive detailer; I'm genuinely impressed with the results you get with the work you do! Keep up the good work you're doing; because you really do have an extraordinary ethic with automotive care.
I’m loving the changes to the channel. I enjoy how you stop the fast play and talk to us in real time during the clean. That’s an awesome addition to the video.
I've probably said this before, but I just love how you present the vehicles after they're all clean. No matter how old, dinged up, inexpensive or "common" the vehicle is, you always show it off at the end of the video as if its a brand new supercar in a commercial. I just think that's just so moving. Even us "little people" like to have pride in our affordable cars.
She literally needs help. Who is going to help her? I'm disabled, I can hardly do anything most of the time. I have to work anyway and it's literally all i can do except lie in bed. People say always say things like YOU NEED HELP then if you say "yeah i literally need help because i literally can't do it" their tune changes. No one will help you unless you can pay them
Based off the outside....he probably had her leave it or even maybe overdo it alittle. I really hope the creator acknowledges the attacks on this woman
I'm so grateful she reached out to get help for not only herself, but children. It's people like her that keeps business going so wonderful to see her reaction.
Still can't understand how some people can let their car be that dirty... I mean, I'm not the most tidy person in the world but I try to clean my car at least once a month... You did a great job with this disaster of a car.... Respect to you.
There are people that they are just pigs, I have sometimes 6 kids in my odyssey and when I get home after going out, it just take me 5 minutes to pull a trash can and empty the trash.
I don't believe it is the case with this vehicle's owner, but often when things get this squalled, the person involved is suffering from some form of mental illness (clinical depression, etc.).
After binge watching his videos a while back I kinda got excited to detail my car. Bought the same steamer and portable wet vac as him even. Then I realized that my car didn't even need much cleaning, just a regular vacuum and exterior wash and it was looking brand new lol. I at least got to use the steamer on my rubber floor mats, and used the wet vac when my brother and his dog came over and the dog peed on my carpet haha. But yeah, even when I think my car is dirty, its still miles away from some of the cars ive seen on this channel. Blows my mind.
@@oyolajm so true. She has 9 kids, 9 reasons why her car shouldn’t look like a dumpster. My parents would have tanned our backsides if we ever did that to one of his cars. Hate to think of the conditions her kids are living in at home.
That’s not necessarily true. Lots of people compartmentalize, they have clean houses but messy cars. Are immaculate at work but have a messy house. Meticulously organize all their desktops and files but their desks are wrecked.
@@jenniferyoung8977 That is why I said "just saying because I know i would get a reply like this. You said compartmentalize, who compartmentalize a full bowl of spaghetti in there car and leave bloody tampon in car etc. I understand that people is busy and fall short in some areas. I'm not judging but I ask myself how could she drive around in that and imagine the smell. She said it herself that the smell was better,
This is why I only let my kids have water bottles with lids in the car, and only once they were old enough to open and close them themselves. Some people's kids are obviously more challenging than others, so no judgement here. Great transformation!
Exactly. My girls weren't allowed anything but water in the car, and no eating until we got home or stopped somewhere. No exceptions. My car is clean inside, besides dirt and dust from outside. Also before we get out, everyone grabs their trash and takes it out.
It’s amazing transformation but unless it’s a legit problem with the family then no excuse for the disgusting behaviour of the kids no matter how many kids you have , never ever let my kids make a mess in the car when they were little.
I took my mom to Laughlin in my new car about 20 years ago. I wouldn't let her drink coffee in my car, only water. She wasn't very happy about it, but I like to keep my cars nice. Never allow eating in the car. That is for sure the death of it.
Your poor kids, Jesus, let them live a little. It's just a car. I bet you turn off the internet after 30 minutes and make them read books too. Oh and before you attack me, myb14 year old son is graduating 2 years early from H.S., is the #1 ranked baseball Pitcher on a national travel team and scored #1 in his class. Childhood does not have to be a job.
I just can’t believe the lack of embarrassment. To leave a bloody pad in your car is on another level. I showed this to the women in my family and they were disgusted.
It was prolly from some long forgotten accident where a kid started bleeding - cut finger perhaps & a quick thinking mom went into her purse & pulled out a "bandage" and the kid stopped bleeding later & ditched the bandage as they are wont to do & the busy mom kept it moving...another day in raising kids paradise
@@yrp237 This was my assumption too, because its far more likely than somebody actually changing their pad in a car... I was much more confused by the frozen butcher meat he found. Wouldn't you at some point realize you were missing the thing you were gonna make for dinner?
@@yrp237down this twice when my leg cut her leg on scooter at the park. Was not enough blood for it to be from a period plus it’s not realistic the change one in the car
@@yrp237 honestly i thought the same thing, when he showed it too there was just like a drop of blood which wouldn't be menstrual lol. my husband recently cut his hand at work and couldn't find any bandages in the car so instead used a baby diaper. was alarming at first when i found a bloody diaper in the car but then i remembered.
I’m a professional carpet cleaner and it is very easy to get out if you have the right chemicals, the only thing is he wets the seat far too much to the point where mould can dry in them because he’s soaking the foam
i have 9 kids too. but you can keep the car clean like a new car that comes out of the dealer every time. as long as there is a desire to clean and do routinely after each use. but everyone has a different focus and different desires for cleanliness. passion to keep getting better and this is a great job!
I just don’t understand how someone could let their vehicle get this way. Imagine what their house looks like. Great job on the transformation! Looks great. That one took lots of patience and effort.
like all these channels they usually dirty things up extra just to get the clicks, watching a guy clean a mostly clean car wont get views, the more extreme the mess the more people want to see it cleaned up, goes the same for all the restoration channels too
im so tired of seeing asinine comments like this. there is a major difference between a house and a car. a house is where you live and spend the majority of your time in. a trashed car does not = a trashed house.
I always have 4 or 5 kids in the car and it gets bad fast but I never have gotten a detail without pre-cleaning it as much as I possibly can. I'd never want them to see how bad it gets. At the same time I realize there are lots of reasons that this isn't possible for everyone. Illness, depression, transition, exhaustion. I try not to judge.
@J i don't myself, but I also don't get to decide if a person with mental health issues has sex and conceives a baby. Kids also are mentally taxing even for healthy-minded people.
After watching many of your awesome videos, I think you are very amazing. Not only do you do a fantastic job, but you realize that the people who bring you their vehicles to you need your help. They realize they need your help. Thank you for not saying that these people are bad. Thank you for doing the same high quality work for each one. It is a situation you can and do make better.
The owners are sick. If they don't change habits, it'll be the same way in a year. Jeez, once a week take it to a car wash. I get my cars detailed about every 7 to 10 years. BTW, I think I love the detail guy.
Vehicles look beat up when they're exposed to mud and lots of kids getting in and out everyday Also might be worth considering they could live in an isolated community with no car wash and freezing temps where you can't wash your car outside@@veramae4098
I’ve watched almost all of your videos, but this one with the Chevy traverse has got to be one of the best if not the best. Thanks for the great videos that you produce.
great transformation, new studio looks amazing. Just wanted to say that kids make a huge mess VERY quickly. Some people comment about the owner's cleanliness but please remember if you have a few of these little monsters running around, cleaning up isn't always as easy as you think.
@@candybubbles Agree! Dirty is Dirty. Teach the kids or they will grow up to be slobs too! It's about putting the "Starbucks / Tim Horton's" cup down and start Parenting.
I always hate the comment section on these videos cause they always just shame the owner. Speaking of which, looks like it’s happening right now in this reply section too. You’d never know someone’s situation, what they’re struggles are, what they’re dealing with. This person has NINE kids. Little ones keep the insides a mess because they’re still too young to understand what you’re trying to teach them, they’ll follow along and then still make a mess. It’s inevitable. Older kids are busy too, and can cause a lot of that outer build up or minor messes. They get busy like adults too, and not every kid is gonna follow their teachings. It all just comes back to never judging someone based on something you have no part in or any situational awareness of.
I don't know what happened now but in the 90s not one person I knew had cars that were trashed. If I did this to my parents car I'd be cleaning it up. My friends parents cars weren't trashed either. And we didn't have to be consuming something every car ride. We were taught to respect our parents property and therefore our own stuff.
Wow what a trans formation!! I want to let you know I’m loving the extra effort you’ve been putting into the video production since you’ve moved to the new studio. Especially the addition of real time action and sounds you’ve added. As well as the added spots you’re talking to the camera as well!!
Guys, Here is our Savior HalleluYAH translates “Praise ye YaH” YaH is The Heavenly Father YaH arrives via the TENT OF MEETING YaH was Who they Crucified for our sins YaH was Crucified on an Almond TREE - Ancient Semitic Cuneiform of Moshe (Moses) - Isa Scroll (The Original Isaiah) Isaiah 42:8 "I am YaH; that is my Name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.” Isaiah 43:11 “I am YAH, and there is no other Savior but Me.” Isaiah 45:5 “I am YaH, and there is none else.”
I like how you give a realistic time frame of how long it actually took you to clean this vehicle. Other detailers act like they can do a transformation like this in just a couple hours. Nice work. Also been awhile, glad a sad to see you upgraded to Mighty lol
Mitch, from 1985-1993 I professionally detailed cars. I really enjoy your brilliant work. We did not have the great cleaners and equipment like you do. We used shop vacs for sweeping and extraction, garden hoses with your typical garden spray attachments, and cheap cleaners. I won't mention brands and names out of respect to those companies. I worked in Florida for a while. The sand in the carpets/seats as well as black or darker colored cars were the bane of our existence. On tough stains, crayons, markers we used Acrosol (
I find it crazy how these people neglect their vehicles so much. Especially when it comes to their daily drivers, some of them act as if they compete for nastiest car awards. Kudos to you man, you have once again outdone yourself. I hope you are asking lots of money for these restorations cause they do seem like soo much work and use of resources. But most of all for doing your job so well while inhaling the stench. That's one thing I would not be able to handle. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Athens, Greece
@@TanaDaSaddest 😂😂I think so too. I dont think the dirt could be removed that easily if they havent cleaned the car since weeks or rather months in this case. The plastic parts should have been faded out completely if thats the case ,I think.
@@Jman10011 Exactly my thoughts! The sad thing is, it's not hard to keep your car clean. I've never had a car this dirty even after not cleaning the interior for a year. At most, I'll have some dirt/salt on my matts, dusty dash board and that's about it. Which takes me at most, 30 minutes to vacuum up a bit and wipe down the interior bits. It really boggles my mind seeing vehicles like this, especially when it starts with simply just not being trashy and getting mud all over the place, eating in the car, leaving trash everywhere. there was mud and dirt on the seats!!! how does that even happen. oh jeez, my head hurts just wondering lol.
I used to fix wrecked cars for a living and i wish you had been our detailer. It doesnt matter how good of a repair you do. If the car doesnt shine when the owner comes to get it they will be upset. You do a really awesome job.
That's interesting, whenever I look for a used vehicle I actually like seeing a little dirtiness. Not filthy but whenever you see stuff like black dyed carpet, tire shine, armor all on the engine cover, wd40 on the window trim, air fresheners... Big red flag 😂
Dude you need some type of disclosure policy in your detail contracts. So that when you find that nastiness you can charge more. What you are dealing with is like an OSHA issue aka hazardous to your health. This was too disturbing.
I was thinking the same thing. I hope he does his disease prevention research and how to avoid any possibility to get any of them. Ex. like a used needle and stuff.
Car looks great as usual! I grew up with four older sisters and two younger ones (and three brothers) Never encountered a misplaced sanitary product. That's just disgusting and poor parenting.
@@kaiyotee2475 you are correct a pad is a pad. But in this instance the pad isn’t bloody. It shouldn’t matter if you seen a clean or dirty pad . It’s normal! Grow up !
I could see if the owner had some extra in a compartment of the car, however, if it was a soiled used pad (and by used I mean for the purpose that it’s meant for), that is just unacceptable and unhealthy.
@@lm3049 sweetie we don’t know who used the pad. Let people do as the please. No one didn’t deny that it wasn’t nasty or unsanitary. But we not about to sit on TH-cam pretending there’s blood on this pad. ✌🏾
Lady here ! Nail polish is a lacquer and can be easily be removed from fabrics with acetone. There may be leftover staining if it’s a dark or red pigment on a light fabrics but generally acetone does the trick .
No one does satisfying cleaning videos like you. Thank you for taking so much time to not only meticulously detail your customer's car, but also film it at all the different angles!!
I wash and vacuum my truck 2-4 times a month and give it a full detail once a month because I just like to keep it nice. I've been in friends and family's vehicles that haven't seen so much as a wash in years. It truly amazes me how people could let something they pay so much for and depend on to get them around get so gross.
As I fellow detailer, my friend you are a patient man. This kind of detail is the worst... I would have charged $1,000 or not even touched it. Damn... You are good
@@VGMStudios33 the dude spend 14 hours cleaning it, Use expensive products to get the job done, in Australia where wages are around 120 an hours for a mechanic... Part not included I would reckon you could charge around 180... You right 215 per hours may be a bit much give it or take I'll not do it for less than 2500 thats a week job keep in mind he need to wait for everything to dry etc...
@@adamleonmunir830 $250 for a full size suv plus 50 per hour on excessively dirty cars. So he probably charged $1,000 dollars on this one based off of his pricing on his website.
While I can certainly understand how the outside could be that dirty, there is NO excuse for that interior. You my friend are a better man than I. Great job well done
I mean I. The winter in Canada I get it. Freezing temps you probably aren’t hosing your car off. But god damn throw the trash away. Old food and other even more disgusting things inside takes 2 minutes. Also stop blaming it on the kids. Make them help.
In the UK you can go to a car wash lot where you will find drive through style car washers that cost £4-£12 depending on the detergent and waxing options you pick, there are parking spaces surrounded by large perspex walls with built in soaping brushes, pressure washers that cost £3 if you just want to use the pressure washer or up to £15 if you want the soaping brush to pump out various cleaning agents. There also vacuum bays similar to the pressure wash bays but have powerful built in vacuum cleaners and upholstery cleaners with similar pricing options depending on if you just want the vacuum or the upholstery cleaner to. Some of the larger lots have garage bays where you can pay someone to wax and buff your paint work and wheels. Once a month i take my car for a basic in and outside valet and every 3 or months i drive to the washing lot in the next town and spend about £60 to get my car show room shiny. Surely on the other side of the pond where every thing is usually bigger and better you have something like this and this lady is just neglecting her car
Car washes in the US and Canada are a LOT more prevalent, with far more better and newer options and far better prices than the UK. I took a road trip last year in Cali/Az/Ut and part of the fun was just stopping to try out all the wash options, which ranged from $2 to $8 for the highest end foam/wax/scented etc.. Our offerings here in the UK are dire and overpriced by comparison. It literally is just neglect on this lady's part, there is no excuse.
@@lizzmil you’ve made it your personal life goal to comment under any person who doesn’t agree with the lifestyle of the owner of this traverse. No matter how bad life gets, it doesn’t mean that you should treat your own car as a trash disposal or to keep it in that state. It takes not even 5 minutes to do a full look around your car to dispose of any loose items or trash.
Do any of you have depression or anxiety? Have you ever had to clean something, and thought it was too overwhelming? Do you know this person’s mind? It’s sad that she let her car get this dirty, but your don’t know what she’s going though, do you? Let’s just be happy that Mitch was able to clean it. I’m sure that took the stress off of her, and made her much happier.
You are amazing🌹I always kept my Subaru Legacy spotless and she lasted 22 years🌹I definitely would have had you do my station wagon🌹I love watching you as you restore nasty messes🌹
Awesome job on this one! Had a guy who rented several houses, he would send potential tenants inside then look inside their car, if it looked nasty he wouldn’t rent to them, he said if they won’t take care of their own property they won’t take of yours!
They used to say that about a man's shoes back in the day . If you wanted a good read on someone check their footwear. In this day and age of plastic trainers it isn't really relevant generally. Outside of maybe the military where one's appearance and attention to detail is of greater importance.
That's a really terrible way to look at people! You should be ashamed of yourself for agreeing to that! I've known many people with messy cars and tidy houses/apartments.
@@AIFRONINJA Nah its completely irrelevant. Some people have spotless cars and don't care about cleaning their homes, or dress in expensive clothes but live in a dump.
That interior may be one of the nastiest ones I have seen on the channel! This detail just goes to show that you never know what you could find inside a car. Well done Mitch!
One thing I told my clients when I detailed full time was that I am a detailer, not a cleaner. I wouldn’t accept delivery to begin unless it was already cleaned of general trash, food, etc. I did this after running into biohazard items and had good success with it. Also, if you don’t already have one, a tornador air gun is a life saver for those cheap carpets with Embedded stuff.
bottom line, this was an amazing job. people really seem to think a dirty car is a reflection of character but truth is, sometimes it's just always the last thing on the priority list. she needed help and logically hired a professional to help her. that seems more responsible to me than just letting it get worse...
wrong. This woman had used feminine hygiene products in the car. Old, frozen goods? That's just disgusting. That speaks more volumes than most. If anything, the owner requires more work than that car ever will. Stop defending her negligence.
Nah ur wrong here dude, the cleanliness of one’s car is totally a reflection of one’s character, if ur car is that dirty, probs means the house is worse and means the person themselves is dirty in general
I don't have the set up like you do. The car wash charges $20 for a basic and the DIY wash charges 6 in quarters before you are done. Now what I do is to wait when a spot is opening trying to remember if they used the brush. Then I go over my entire car with the brush because it still has soap. Then I hit it with the blaster and give it a long spot free rinse until the time is up. Then I quickly drive around until my car is dry. Then my car is as clean as I need it to be for $6 bones. In the summer I bring a bucket that contains Oxy laundry soap and boiling water that's only hot when I get to the car wash. I used their brush to brush off most of the dirt. Then I set it aside and hit it with a bucket of baking soda, and fabric softener before I rinse it with the spot free setting. When This cost $3. They have a free vac but it's really weak.
She knew that no matter the condition of the car, some slow-mo side-to-side wash mit action (though I didn't see it this time)would fix it all up. Also, I like the occasional "check in" with the audience as you're going along along with the intro outside. Pretty neat changes coming to the channel🤙🏽
Your attention to detail, patience, and professionalism is incredible. An example of your professionalism is how you don't look as this person sideways after removing moldy food and a used tampon from her vehicle. 😂😂You always do outstanding work. I am surprised when cleaning vehicles as nasty as this one, you don't wear some type of breathing apparatus. For me, the disgusting smells would linger in my mind so long that I would need something to block the stench. 😂😂
Exactly what I was thinking. “Everyone put on some rubber gloves, and grab a few trash bags. I want 5 of you to de-crap the inside and the other 4 to make the outside brand new again.”
Wow, that was amazing! The difference before and after was like day and night! You outdid yourself on this one, and even better, you picked up my energy and mood for the Friday workday.
It doeasnt seem that many people here understand just how hard it is to keep a vehicle clean when you have kids. Its even harder when you have depression on top of it. You did a fantastic job cleaning this vehicle
Pressure washers melting stuff away is probably top 5 most satisfying things to watch. If the lady watched this episode, she probably was thinkin' "So THAAAATS where my pound of bacon went!"
Hopefully she DOES watch this and is embarrassed to a point where she doesn't allow her filthy and disgusting children to leave nasty, disgusting used bloodied pads in a her freaking car. *makes gagging sounds* Like my son said, "That's like leaving a used condom in your cars door pocket!" *makes vomiting sounds*
I love the new garage or studio whichever your calling it. It's so big and I know you were excited to get it done. I'm so glad you've got it done and moved into it. I also love the colors. I'm thrilled for you!!
You did a GREAT job on that one!! I just can't believe she didn't even try to take out some of the trash!! My car and truck get dirty, but NEVER even close to this one!! I do take the trash out of them!! Thanks for the video's!!
I thought the same. There is a difference between "dirty" and simply "disgusting". Dirty is dusty, muddy, sticky from unwanted spills etc. It's called normal use, and cleaned regularly. But old meat, spaghetti bowl and bloody feminine products? I can't imagine the smell. That's just disgusting and showing your own character as a person. I would be SO ASHAMED to show my face there. Even if I had gone to the level of disgusting as this, I would just ask to not show my face and take the plates off for the youtube purpose. I would be too embarrassed, and note, I'm not the cleanliest guy on earth. I was dating that one girl when I was at university and she invited me over to her dorm where she shared a room with another girl. I sat on her bed and started a conversation with her roommate when my date left, and she asked me if I could smell anything. I first said yeah it smells a bit off, what is it? Then she pointed me to under the bed where I found a number of bloody feminine products just thrown under the bed and said "can you talk to her? I've been trying to make her remove that for a bit now". I guess both girls didn't like each other if she pointed me to that but I'm grateful. I was so off that pretty much never went on a date with her again.
I’m a Canadian as well, and I work for a dealership in a detail position, this video has helped me with getting good pointers and techniques when I clean and detail the vehicles. Thanks for posting these videos and I hope you have a merry Christmas!
Por mais que alguém não tenha tempo de cuidar do seu automóvel, alguns níveis de sujeira e entulhos chegam a beirar o inimaginável. Excelente trabalho.
Eu lembro de entrar no carro da mãe de um amigo meu quando eu era criança e a quantidade de lixo no chão me traumatizou haha Era nessa pegada do vídeo, mas com menos absorvente e esmalte e mais latinhas e papéis.
After that terrific preview the full video did not disappoint. You moved your "editing chair" to the shop. More comfortable than the desk for sure. After more vehicles for comparison, I'd like to hear how fast the upholstery dries with the new extractor. Another enjoyable video.
I love watching these transformations, and I think it's awesome that Mitch does such a great job on every vehicle, regardless of what condition it comes to him in. Having worked in a college environment, I've seen dorm rooms and faculty offices that are every bit as bad as this, and some even worse. What often tends to be the case is that the person is in mental crisis, and has reached a point where they are simply too overwhelmed to improve the situation themselves. They can't face what seems to be such an impossible task. When they finally do receive the mental health services, having someone else come in and do a reset of their space is often necessary so they can focus on improving themselves without having the added stress and anxiety that looking at this mess gives them.
Yep, I agree. We had a friend die suddenly a while ago and I had to clean her house out. She was a hoarder and and it was just ghastly inside and out. Her car was much the same.
@@crazybabe213 That doesn't change anything. Imagine leaving moldy food and used pads/tampons in your car before letting someone clean it. That's just rude and careless.
She had to see it every single day she got into it. She should have been embarrassed any of those days but clearly wasn't. I just don't understand how people are ok with utter filth. 🤮
Thing is I already know she's gonna treat it the same way as she did that lead to this mobile cess Pitt of depravity. It takes more than a car valet it takes a change in your whole mindset and respect for property. Just my opinion lol!
Have you ever thought about using a back massager to get the dirt out of the deep mat BEFORE you go to the liquid extraction? I have seen alot of video's of people using them on car's and SOOOO much dirt rides to the surface (INSANE AMOUNTS!) Plus its very visual, idk just a thought
Superb! I can not tell you how many insanely disgusting details I did in 25 years of owning a small car lot, but it was my specialty. SOOO many full interior tear downs... I too have seen some unexpected things in unexpected places... 🤣 Though it was a great way to make a living for many years, it was unfortunately this kind of work that also physically beat my body down. (Just some friendly advice from a guy not much older than you) Do anything you can NOW, before it is too late, to keep yourself from having to bend over or crawl around on your hands and knees for long periods of time... If you cheat, you are the only one that will pay for it later! Seriously, brother! For all the pain I am in now from all the hours I spent on the floor or hunched over doing the thing that needed to be done, I wish I had Invested in a small lift for doing all that low to the ground work. It was not until I had already done damage that I started lifting vehicles & using a rolling chair for all the ground work, and elevated surfaces like tables or wall hooks when cleaning seats, trim, etc... Just some suggestions for the long term... 😉 Keep up the great work!
I'm sure this comment gets repeated often, but I just don't understand how people can let a car get this bad. You do great work and keep me motivated to keep my cars pristine! Also love the new shop!
When you have 9 children to look after cleaning a car become somewhat a low priority. She would have a more busier life than most of us so you really cant blame her.
Exactly! That's what I keep saying! Does the creator link them and say "Hey, dont wash your car for months, I want some real cringe for the channel"? This cannot be real man!
Great job as always. She really appreciated it, and it seems they bought it used and this really was the best she's ever seen it look. Very cool. I still can't believe she didn't remove the food and hygiene products before turning it over though. I won't even take a dirty car to the mechanic.
I clean out my car before taking it to mechanic too. I was wondering why she didn't take all that stuff out but then I wondered if he asked her to leave it in so he could promote his channel and products. As for the hygiene products, that's a new one for me but girls are disgusting (everyone thinks it's boys - it's not, girls are so gross... my husband used to clean a high school and office buildings. Girls/women and coaches are the most gross lol) and it wouldn't surprise me if she didn't know that was in there.
RE: the nail polish on the seat, I've found that GM weirdly uses surprisingly resilient seat fabrics. They aren't much to sit on or feel, but they do stand up against most stains - pretty much the opposite of their chintzy carpets.
I just ordered an extractor/spot shampooer. I have a little armor all wet dry vac but i think I'd get a mini vac master if i could do it over. The vac has helped me so much, I've had repeated issues with leaks and related problems that I don't notice until they're a huge deal. You can set it in your car with you so it's way less frustrating and quieter for neighbors. Anyway I'm just missing the extractor. Wish I could have a pressure washer but we aren't even allowed to wash our cars in this complex lol
@@kingtoyab69 we don’t care what she is going thru. Everyone goes thru shit on the daily but it doesn’t mean you can slack off. You little have the mindset of a loser😂
@@kingtoyab69 Well, I've seen some people that had a messy flat or house, but the cleanest cars in the whole street, some are just the other way around. But honestly, picking up the loose thrash after the kids are out, only give them water to drink, and regular wipe down with a damp cloth with a bit of dish soap and a regular vacuum doesn't hurt anyone, that's done in under an hour if you take your time. I mean, thats how I keep my E46, wich is my pure daily driver, nice and clean. Every 3-4 weeks a vacuum for 30mins, a quick wipe down and cleaning the glass, 1-2h max and the car looks really good.
After watching these videos I tried to clean my car. Of course I don't have all the fun toys, but I spend _hours_ on it and felt cheated, since the videos are so much shorter ;)
I'm pretty sure I've watched all of your videos and this was probably my favorite! 😅 It had filth on every level of cleaning, it had drama and attitude, entertainment, lessons/ tips, crazy weather and more! Plus I love when you do black cars, especially this gross, because you can see all of the muddy water coming from every crevasse and the soap foam looks awesome on it. Just a great video and cleaning, maybe not an ideal detail for a detailer but great for one on TH-cam 😍 Oh and I had to add that I loved the song pick at the end!
I know he has a specific theme going on his channel for super dirty stuff, but as a detailer myself I am extremely glad I have luckily got my business to a point where it's 75% maintenance cleans. I don't have to do details like this a whole lot anymore!!
I really like the new way you present and cut your videos. What an incredible good job! You really always get the best out of it and try to reach perfection. Absolutely overwhelming result.

How does it feel to have much more space to clean 🧼?
Good work as always
How do you clean a cars gas tank door if it is a easy fuel and doesn’t have a cap
U glad u wherein a respirator when cleaning the car lol 28:25
have u ever refused a vehicle because its too disgusting?
Can't seem to get over how many of the owners don't take the time to, at least, remove all the loose stuff before bringing the vehicle over to you. Kind of feel that it speaks volumes about their character.
On the contrary, I wouldn't be surprised if he asks his customers to leave their cars as is for better video content. Judging by the number of outrageous cars he gets, I just assume he puts out discounted/free offers to people who wouldn't normally pay to get their cars cleaned in exchange for him posting these to TH-cam.
They should have the owner bring the car back to see if they keep the car clean or let then get this bad again
@@Epyon00 Hmm, guess that could be a possibility.
@@Epyon00 yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if he just says leave it as is. I’m guessing he tells them to take personal things they can find but leave most of the thing as they were.
😂 Way less dramatic for the video and donations that way. It is all about money.
I was raised more poor than a church mouse... one thing my parents forced into our heads, "it doesn't take money to be clean" really helped us out in life.
😂😅
Agreed and have multiple examples of large families of various economic levels among my friends and family to show it!
Exactly. Poverty is not fought with cleanliness.
But you cannot judge people and their cleanliness without knowing their situation. Would you tell something like that to someone who is depressed or sick?
@@lizzmil If you are depressed,CLEAN!!! Moving around is a natural depression healer!! If you're depressed,if you move around and clean your home and vehicle you feel better and less depressed!!! It might even cure your depression..Its laziness,slop,pig to be messy! Go clean up stop making excuses!
Now,if you are injured,crippled or in pain and cant do large cleaning tasks thats a different story! But i know a person in a wheel chair and they personally keep their home and vehicle clean!! Yes they drive with hand controls..
This video truly shows the difference between an average detailer and THE Detail Geek. With nail polish in seats, most would say that won’t come perfect and there’s no way to make it look new. I just love how Mitch looks at anything no matter how hard or time consuming and completely transforms it even better than new. Insane amount of respect for a detailer like himself. Good job man.
@@_-Montana-_ lmao bro calm down
@@suntofoca6073 Not everybody wants to pay extra to have their car polished

Great video. You did an immaculate job. Whoever the owner is should be out right ashamed of themselves. I’d be so embarrassed
Great video thanks for posting.
As a former automotive detailer; I'm genuinely impressed with the results you get with the work you do! Keep up the good work you're doing; because you really do have an extraordinary ethic with automotive care.
I’m loving the changes to the channel. I enjoy how you stop the fast play and talk to us in real time during the clean. That’s an awesome addition to the video.
Thank you, really glad you’re enjoying it!
Check out the second channel if you haven't, there's some longer real time stuff over there as well :)
@@Daphoid I’m slackin’ lol I need to check that out!
Agree, the talking segments are good
totally agree? very nice addition. works out perfectly. makes the view even more connected to the entire process, IMHO.
I've probably said this before, but I just love how you present the vehicles after they're all clean. No matter how old, dinged up, inexpensive or "common" the vehicle is, you always show it off at the end of the video as if its a brand new supercar in a commercial. I just think that's just so moving. Even us "little people" like to have pride in our affordable cars.
Uhhh... yeah, equipement has to be clean to work optimally, no matter what it is
brokie
She definitely didn’t have pride in her vehicle
"Little people" are the best people, thats why i dnt label anyone as anything, humble people are the most worth while people. Stay up man.
It is the person that needs transformation! Not only the car!
Absolutely.
Bingo. How do you not have more likes? This woman needs major help.
I would be mortified if my car got like that.
She literally needs help. Who is going to help her?
I'm disabled, I can hardly do anything most of the time. I have to work anyway and it's literally all i can do except lie in bed. People say always say things like YOU NEED HELP then if you say "yeah i literally need help because i literally can't do it" their tune changes. No one will help you unless you can pay them
Based off the outside....he probably had her leave it or even maybe overdo it alittle.
I really hope the creator acknowledges the attacks on this woman
I'm so grateful she reached out to get help for not only herself, but children. It's people like her that keeps business going so wonderful to see her reaction.
Still can't understand how some people can let their car be that dirty... I mean, I'm not the most tidy person in the world but I try to clean my car at least once a month... You did a great job with this disaster of a car.... Respect to you.
There are people that they are just pigs, I have sometimes 6 kids in my odyssey and when I get home after going out, it just take me 5 minutes to pull a trash can and empty the trash.
I don't believe it is the case with this vehicle's owner, but often when things get this squalled, the person involved is suffering from some form of mental illness (clinical depression, etc.).
Ill bet in one week that car was back to this state...
After binge watching his videos a while back I kinda got excited to detail my car. Bought the same steamer and portable wet vac as him even. Then I realized that my car didn't even need much cleaning, just a regular vacuum and exterior wash and it was looking brand new lol. I at least got to use the steamer on my rubber floor mats, and used the wet vac when my brother and his dog came over and the dog peed on my carpet haha.
But yeah, even when I think my car is dirty, its still miles away from some of the cars ive seen on this channel. Blows my mind.
@@oyolajm so true. She has 9 kids, 9 reasons why her car shouldn’t look like a dumpster. My parents would have tanned our backsides if we ever did that to one of his cars. Hate to think of the conditions her kids are living in at home.
If her car is like this, imagine her house just saying. Great job on the finish product.
That’s not necessarily true. Lots of people compartmentalize, they have clean houses but messy cars. Are immaculate at work but have a messy house. Meticulously organize all their desktops and files but their desks are wrecked.
dirty pigs
I don’t think I would have the audacity to turn up with a car in that state in the first place.
Be kind. You have no idea what her life situation is.
@@jenniferyoung8977 That is why I said "just saying because I know i would get a reply like this. You said compartmentalize, who compartmentalize a full bowl of spaghetti in there car and leave bloody tampon in car etc. I understand that people is busy and fall short in some areas. I'm not judging but I ask myself how could she drive around in that and imagine the smell. She said it herself that the smell was better,
This is why I only let my kids have water bottles with lids in the car, and only once they were old enough to open and close them themselves. Some people's kids are obviously more challenging than others, so no judgement here. Great transformation!
Yeah gonna do the same with my kid, my brothers car always looked like shit with al the chocolate stains and shit everywhere
Exactly. My girls weren't allowed anything but water in the car, and no eating until we got home or stopped somewhere. No exceptions. My car is clean inside, besides dirt and dust from outside. Also before we get out, everyone grabs their trash and takes it out.
It’s amazing transformation but unless it’s a legit problem with the family then no excuse for the disgusting behaviour of the kids no matter how many kids you have , never ever let my kids make a mess in the car when they were little.
I took my mom to Laughlin in my new car about 20 years ago. I wouldn't let her drink coffee in my car, only water. She wasn't very happy about it, but I like to keep my cars nice. Never allow eating in the car. That is for sure the death of it.
Your poor kids, Jesus, let them live a little. It's just a car. I bet you turn off the internet after 30 minutes and make them read books too. Oh and before you attack me, myb14 year old son is graduating 2 years early from H.S., is the #1 ranked baseball Pitcher on a national travel team and scored #1 in his class. Childhood does not have to be a job.
What I enjoy as someone with an OCD is that you make sure all parts are vacuumed in sections. I appreciate that.🎉😊
I just can’t believe the lack of embarrassment. To leave a bloody pad in your car is on another level. I showed this to the women in my family and they were disgusted.
It was prolly from some long forgotten accident where a kid started bleeding - cut finger perhaps & a quick thinking mom went into her purse & pulled out a "bandage" and the kid stopped bleeding later & ditched the bandage as they are wont to do & the busy mom kept it moving...another day in raising kids paradise
@@yrp237 This was my assumption too, because its far more likely than somebody actually changing their pad in a car... I was much more confused by the frozen butcher meat he found. Wouldn't you at some point realize you were missing the thing you were gonna make for dinner?
Think harder, be better
@@yrp237down this twice when my leg cut her leg on scooter at the park. Was not enough blood for it to be from a period plus it’s not realistic the change one in the car
@@yrp237 honestly i thought the same thing, when he showed it too there was just like a drop of blood which wouldn't be menstrual lol. my husband recently cut his hand at work and couldn't find any bandages in the car so instead used a baby diaper. was alarming at first when i found a bloody diaper in the car but then i remembered.
Cant believe you managed to get the nail polish off the seats. That was impressive. Thought for sure the seats were ruined.
I’m a professional carpet cleaner and it is very easy to get out if you have the right chemicals, the only thing is he wets the seat far too much to the point where mould can dry in them because he’s soaking the foam
@@benrycroft1139 Cool

I absolutely love watching this channel! When the customers say it looks better than when they first got it just tells you how amazing your work is!
I totally agree with you there and he sure does an amazingly job
No doubt he does but in this case any type of job would still have looked great.
i have 9 kids too. but you can keep the car clean like a new car that comes out of the dealer every time. as long as there is a desire to clean and do routinely after each use. but everyone has a different focus and different desires for cleanliness. passion to keep getting better and this is a great job!
I just don’t understand how someone could let their vehicle get this way. Imagine what their house looks like.
Great job on the transformation! Looks great. That one took lots of patience and effort.
Ehh. For some a car is just a tool. A house is a home. With a bunch of kids. I can see it.
That’s what “free” government assistance does
like all these channels they usually dirty things up extra just to get the clicks, watching a guy clean a mostly clean car wont get views, the more extreme the mess the more people want to see it cleaned up, goes the same for all the restoration channels too
Well said let’s see their house
im so tired of seeing asinine comments like this. there is a major difference between a house and a car. a house is where you live and spend the majority of your time in. a trashed car does not = a trashed house.
I always have 4 or 5 kids in the car and it gets bad fast but I never have gotten a detail without pre-cleaning it as much as I possibly can. I'd never want them to see how bad it gets. At the same time I realize there are lots of reasons that this isn't possible for everyone. Illness, depression, transition, exhaustion. I try not to judge.
Uff so sad that your comment is the only one that consider reality about mental health and even parenting. Thank you for that.
Wise woman. 😊
@J i don't myself, but I also don't get to decide if a person with mental health issues has sex and conceives a baby. Kids also are mentally taxing even for healthy-minded people.
Why so many kids? Geez.
@grimsonforce7504 I have six, and a tidy car. Why other people have lots of children is none of your business.
After watching many of your awesome videos, I think you are very amazing. Not only do you do a fantastic job, but you realize that the people who bring you their vehicles to you need your help. They realize they need your help. Thank you for not saying that these people are bad. Thank you for doing the same high quality work for each one. It is a situation you can and do make better.
The owners are sick. If they don't change habits, it'll be the same way in a year. Jeez, once a week take it to a car wash.
I get my cars detailed about every 7 to 10 years.
BTW, I think I love the detail guy.
Vehicles look beat up when they're exposed to mud and lots of kids getting in and out everyday
Also might be worth considering they could live in an isolated community with no car wash and freezing temps where you can't wash your car outside@@veramae4098
I’ve watched almost all of your videos, but this one with the Chevy traverse has got to be one of the best if not the best. Thanks for the great videos that you produce.
great transformation, new studio looks amazing. Just wanted to say that kids make a huge mess VERY quickly. Some people comment about the owner's cleanliness but please remember if you have a few of these little monsters running around, cleaning up isn't always as easy as you think.
Another option is just reasonable amount of good parenting. I have been to many family vans growing up and none come close to that.
@@candybubbles Agree! Dirty is Dirty. Teach the kids or they will grow up to be slobs too! It's about putting the "Starbucks / Tim Horton's" cup down and start Parenting.
Not easy with kids, I agree, but she could have just removed the bigger pieces of spoiled food, and especially the period products. How gross.
I always hate the comment section on these videos cause they always just shame the owner. Speaking of which, looks like it’s happening right now in this reply section too.
You’d never know someone’s situation, what they’re struggles are, what they’re dealing with. This person has NINE kids. Little ones keep the insides a mess because they’re still too young to understand what you’re trying to teach them, they’ll follow along and then still make a mess. It’s inevitable.
Older kids are busy too, and can cause a lot of that outer build up or minor messes. They get busy like adults too, and not every kid is gonna follow their teachings.
It all just comes back to never judging someone based on something you have no part in or any situational awareness of.
I don't know what happened now but in the 90s not one person I knew had cars that were trashed. If I did this to my parents car I'd be cleaning it up. My friends parents cars weren't trashed either. And we didn't have to be consuming something every car ride. We were taught to respect our parents property and therefore our own stuff.
Wow what a trans formation!! I want to let you know I’m loving the extra effort you’ve been putting into the video production since you’ve moved to the new studio. Especially the addition of real time action and sounds you’ve added. As well as the added spots you’re talking to the camera as well!!
Thank you, glad you’re enjoying it!

I actually do work at a small car wash, we use cold soapy water and it works good for the most part, but we also don't have high prices
You've "nailed" it getting that polish off. Impressive.
Mitch, from 1985-1993 I professionally detailed cars. I really enjoy your brilliant work. We did not have the great cleaners and equipment like you do. We used shop vacs for sweeping and extraction, garden hoses with your typical garden spray attachments, and cheap cleaners. I won't mention brands and names out of respect to those companies. I worked in Florida for a while. The sand in the carpets/seats as well as black or darker colored cars were the bane of our existence. On tough stains, crayons, markers we used Acrosol (

I find it crazy how these people neglect their vehicles so much. Especially when it comes to their daily drivers, some of them act as if they compete for nastiest car awards. Kudos to you man, you have once again outdone yourself. I hope you are asking lots of money for these restorations cause they do seem like soo much work and use of resources.

Can’t be real looks like she drove in the mud upside down
@@TanaDaSaddest 😂😂I think so too. I dont think the dirt could be removed that easily if they havent cleaned the car since weeks or rather months in this case. The plastic parts should have been faded out completely if thats the case ,I think.
@@Jman10011 Exactly my thoughts! The sad thing is, it's not hard to keep your car clean. I've never had a car this dirty even after not cleaning the interior for a year. At most, I'll have some dirt/salt on my matts, dusty dash board and that's about it. Which takes me at most, 30 minutes to vacuum up a bit and wipe down the interior bits. It really boggles my mind seeing vehicles like this, especially when it starts with simply just not being trashy and getting mud all over the place, eating in the car, leaving trash everywhere. there was mud and dirt on the seats!!! how does that even happen. oh jeez, my head hurts just wondering lol.
Yeah ig 9 kids and probably depression does that to u
Great work man. If your kids are old enough to play lacrosse, they’re old enough to help mom clean the car out
I love that you care enough to remove your shoes as you are vacuuming out that nasty interior 😂. Great job as usual!
I used to fix wrecked cars for a living and i wish you had been our detailer. It doesnt matter how good of a repair you do. If the car doesnt shine when the owner comes to get it they will be upset. You do a really awesome job.
That's interesting, whenever I look for a used vehicle I actually like seeing a little dirtiness. Not filthy but whenever you see stuff like black dyed carpet, tire shine, armor all on the engine cover, wd40 on the window trim, air fresheners... Big red flag 😂
Dude you need some type of disclosure policy in your detail contracts. So that when you find that nastiness you can charge more. What you are dealing with is like an OSHA issue aka hazardous to your health. This was too disturbing.
Definitely need hazard pay for a job like that!
I was thinking the same thing. I hope he does his disease prevention research and how to avoid any possibility to get any of them.
Ex. like a used needle and stuff.
Yes, he shloud just charge 50% extra if he finds mouldy food or other shit that could be dangerous for his health

gotta appriciate the time and effort that goes into detailing, respect to all you detailers it definitely does not look easy
It looks amazingly satisfying to see all that dirt/grime etc. come off! 😃
I wash and vacuum my truck 2-4 times a month and give it a full detail once a month because I just like to keep it nice. I've been in friends and family's vehicles that haven't seen so much as a wash in years. It truly amazes me how people could let something they pay so much for and depend on to get them around get so gross.

While I can certainly understand how the outside could be that dirty, there is NO excuse for that interior. You my friend are a better man than I. Great job well done

I mean I. The winter in Canada I get it. Freezing temps you probably aren’t hosing your car off. But god damn throw the trash away. Old food and other even more disgusting things inside takes 2 minutes. Also stop blaming it on the kids. Make them help.
You judge a stranger without knowing what their situation and life is likd
In the UK you can go to a car wash lot where you will find drive through style car washers that cost £4-£12 depending on the detergent and waxing options you pick, there are parking spaces surrounded by large perspex walls with built in soaping brushes, pressure washers that cost £3 if you just want to use the pressure washer or up to £15 if you want the soaping brush to pump out various cleaning agents. There also vacuum bays similar to the pressure wash bays but have powerful built in vacuum cleaners and upholstery cleaners with similar pricing options depending on if you just want the vacuum or the upholstery cleaner to. Some of the larger lots have garage bays where you can pay someone to wax and buff your paint work and wheels. Once a month i take my car for a basic in and outside valet and every 3 or months i drive to the washing lot in the next town and spend about £60 to get my car show room shiny.
Surely on the other side of the pond where every thing is usually bigger and better you have something like this and this lady is just neglecting her car
Car washes in the US and Canada are a LOT more prevalent, with far more better and newer options and far better prices than the UK. I took a road trip last year in Cali/Az/Ut and part of the fun was just stopping to try out all the wash options, which ranged from $2 to $8 for the highest end foam/wax/scented etc.. Our offerings here in the UK are dire and overpriced by comparison. It literally is just neglect on this lady's part, there is no excuse.
If I hadn't seen you clean that vehicle, I would have never believed it was the same car. Incredible job man!
I'd be ashamed to even have a driver's license if this was sitting in my driveway/garage.

do you have 9 kids?

Awesome job on this one! Had a guy who rented several houses, he would send potential tenants inside then look inside their car, if it looked nasty he wouldn’t rent to them, he said if they won’t take care of their own property they won’t take of yours!
They used to say that about a man's shoes back in the day . If you wanted a good read on someone check their footwear.
In this day and age of plastic trainers it isn't really relevant generally. Outside of maybe the military where one's appearance and attention to detail is of greater importance.
wow, how that is so true. it's ultimately a mindset that's why.
That's a really terrible way to look at people! You should be ashamed of yourself for agreeing to that! I've known many people with messy cars and tidy houses/apartments.
@@senseifart8614 not true, if you are willing to drive in total filth in that small of a space, you don’t care enough to clean your house either
@@AIFRONINJA Nah its completely irrelevant. Some people have spotless cars and don't care about cleaning their homes, or dress in expensive clothes but live in a dump.
That interior may be one of the nastiest ones I have seen on the channel! This detail just goes to show that you never know what you could find inside a car. Well done Mitch!
One thing I told my clients when I detailed full time was that I am a detailer, not a cleaner.
I wouldn’t accept delivery to begin unless it was already cleaned of general trash, food, etc. I did this after running into biohazard items and had good success with it.
Also, if you don’t already have one, a tornador air gun is a life saver for those cheap carpets with
Embedded stuff.

bottom line, this was an amazing job. people really seem to think a dirty car is a reflection of character but truth is, sometimes it's just always the last thing on the priority list. she needed help and logically hired a professional to help her. that seems more responsible to me than just letting it get worse...
wrong. This woman had used feminine hygiene products in the car. Old, frozen goods? That's just disgusting. That speaks more volumes than most. If anything, the owner requires more work than that car ever will. Stop defending her negligence.
If u have 9 kids, get the kids to help and teach them responsibility. Hate to see their house.
Because it is a reflection on their character.
Nah ur wrong here dude, the cleanliness of one’s car is totally a reflection of one’s character, if ur car is that dirty, probs means the house is worse and means the person themselves is dirty in general
@@Grovreicraynth sanitary napkins, unfolded, used, inside your vehicle? Come on man. You don't need to be a professional to dispose them in the trash.
It's hilarious that he tells us how unbelievably nasty it is and then it's like "here's the owner." 😂 "Oh, wow. Holy crap."
After showing us the owner, he mentioned how nasty the car was again. 🤣
😂😂😂Yeah I’d come to his studio dressed as Spider-Man.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
LOL!
I would be very ashamed of myself if I were the owner of that vehicle, you certainly did an amazing job cleaning that SUV!
yall judgmental MFs
You shame a stranger without knowing their situation in their private life
@lizzmil
Nothing excuses a car to be in this condition. This is filthy.
Most people would be ashamed.. but them they have some who doesn’t give af.. she doesn’t
I don't have the set up like you do. The car wash charges $20 for a basic and the DIY wash charges 6 in quarters before you are done. Now what I do is to wait when a spot is opening trying to remember if they used the brush. Then I go over my entire car with the brush because it still has soap. Then I hit it with the blaster and give it a long spot free rinse until the time is up. Then I quickly drive around until my car is dry. Then my car is as clean as I need it to be for $6 bones.
In the summer I bring a bucket that contains Oxy laundry soap and boiling water that's only hot when I get to the car wash. I used their brush to brush off most of the dirt. Then I set it aside and hit it with a bucket of baking soda, and fabric softener before I rinse it with the spot free setting. When This cost $3. They have a free vac but it's really weak.
That's pure hard work. You earn the respect of your clients as well as millions who watch you. Hats off to you brother!
She knew that no matter the condition of the car, some slow-mo side-to-side wash mit action (though I didn't see it this time)would fix it all up. Also, I like the occasional "check in" with the audience as you're going along along with the intro outside. Pretty neat changes coming to the channel🤙🏽
Your attention to detail, patience, and professionalism is incredible. An example of your professionalism is how you don't look as this person sideways after removing moldy food and a used tampon from her vehicle. 😂😂You always do outstanding work. I am surprised when cleaning vehicles as nasty as this one, you don't wear some type of breathing apparatus. For me, the disgusting smells would linger in my mind so long that I would need something to block the stench. 😂😂
That was not a tampon........
Mitch does sometimes wear a breathing apparatus.
Having 9 kids and not teaching them to clean up after themselves is lazy parenting. 18 extra hands for cleaning.
Exactly what I was thinking. “Everyone put on some rubber gloves, and grab a few trash bags. I want 5 of you to de-crap the inside and the other 4 to make the outside brand new again.”
Looks like she delivered all 9 kids in that car... geeezsss
Right
What a blessing your skills and tools are to someone who needs your non-judgmental help! So satisfying to see the end product!
Wow, that was amazing! The difference before and after was like day and night! You outdid yourself on this one, and even better, you picked up my energy and mood for the Friday workday.
It doeasnt seem that many people here understand just how hard it is to keep a vehicle clean when you have kids. Its even harder when you have depression on top of it. You did a fantastic job cleaning this vehicle
I hope she brought you a bag of cash the same as the bag of trash you removed. You’re work is amazing.
Pressure washers melting stuff away is probably top 5 most satisfying things to watch.
If the lady watched this episode, she probably was thinkin' "So THAAAATS where my pound of bacon went!"
Hopefully she DOES watch this and is embarrassed to a point where she doesn't allow her filthy and disgusting children to leave nasty, disgusting used bloodied pads in a her freaking car. *makes gagging sounds* Like my son said, "That's like leaving a used condom in your cars door pocket!" *makes vomiting sounds*
Lmao
I love the new garage or studio whichever your calling it. It's so big and I know you were excited to get it done. I'm so glad you've got it done and moved into it. I also love the colors. I'm thrilled for you!!
The NAIL POLISH!!!! Wow....professional work!
I think the steamer is the most satisfying tool to use while cleaning a car
You did a GREAT job on that one!! I just can't believe she didn't even try to take out some of the trash!! My car and truck get dirty, but NEVER even close to this one!! I do take the trash out of them!! Thanks for the video's!!
Makes you wonder what their house is like.. Amazing job as always !! 👏 ❤️
I thought the same. There is a difference between "dirty" and simply "disgusting". Dirty is dusty, muddy, sticky from unwanted spills etc. It's called normal use, and cleaned regularly. But old meat, spaghetti bowl and bloody feminine products? I can't imagine the smell. That's just disgusting and showing your own character as a person. I would be SO ASHAMED to show my face there. Even if I had gone to the level of disgusting as this, I would just ask to not show my face and take the plates off for the youtube purpose. I would be too embarrassed, and note, I'm not the cleanliest guy on earth. I was dating that one girl when I was at university and she invited me over to her dorm where she shared a room with another girl. I sat on her bed and started a conversation with her roommate when my date left, and she asked me if I could smell anything. I first said yeah it smells a bit off, what is it? Then she pointed me to under the bed where I found a number of bloody feminine products just thrown under the bed and said "can you talk to her? I've been trying to make her remove that for a bit now". I guess both girls didn't like each other if she pointed me to that but I'm grateful. I was so off that pretty much never went on a date with her again.
I wouldn’t even take a napkin from this person if I needed one.
@@MrDomestosWC lol "pretty much never went on a date with her again." So you just kept sleeping with her until someone less vile came along?
Some man/ men made 9 children (if she didn't lose any). She is good at one thing,,she doesn't clean.
i mean having 9 kids in this society is basically asking for it lol
I still can't believe how people manage to get their vehicles to look like that
I’m a Canadian as well, and I work for a dealership in a detail position, this video has helped me with getting good pointers and techniques when I clean and detail the vehicles. Thanks for posting these videos and I hope you have a merry Christmas!
Por mais que alguém não tenha tempo de cuidar do seu automóvel, alguns níveis de sujeira e entulhos chegam a beirar o inimaginável.
Excelente trabalho.
Eu lembro de entrar no carro da mãe de um amigo meu quando eu era criança e a quantidade de lixo no chão me traumatizou haha
Era nessa pegada do vídeo, mas com menos absorvente e esmalte e mais latinhas e papéis.
I like it when you take a moment and talk about the detail and telling us tips or sharing info. Not sure when you started it , but keep doing it!
👏🏻👏🏻
Oh man, this guy is a committed and patient detail guy I ever saw. A car as filthy, I’d return it back to the customer.
After that terrific preview the full video did not disappoint. You moved your "editing chair" to the shop. More comfortable than the desk for sure. After more vehicles for comparison, I'd like to hear how fast the upholstery dries with the new extractor. Another enjoyable video.
Wow Mitch, you absolutely brought the Traverse back to life. I’m sure she must be really ecstatic. Mind blowing! Nice Job! Have a great weekend y’all.
I love watching these transformations, and I think it's awesome that Mitch does such a great job on every vehicle, regardless of what condition it comes to him in. Having worked in a college environment, I've seen dorm rooms and faculty offices that are every bit as bad as this, and some even worse. What often tends to be the case is that the person is in mental crisis, and has reached a point where they are simply too overwhelmed to improve the situation themselves. They can't face what seems to be such an impossible task. When they finally do receive the mental health services, having someone else come in and do a reset of their space is often necessary so they can focus on improving themselves without having the added stress and anxiety that looking at this mess gives them.
Yep, I agree. We had a friend die suddenly a while ago and I had to clean her house out. She was a hoarder and and it was just ghastly inside and out. Her car was much the same.
I love to keep my car clean ❤ I wish it wasn't such hard work to detail it. But I never let it get that bad, I clean it monthly to keep it nice.
I'm surprised the client isn't dying of embarrasment at the things he found when he cleaned it out🤢
Maybe they got the cleaning for free or discounted rate to allow him to post this video
@@crazybabe213 That doesn't change anything. Imagine leaving moldy food and used pads/tampons in your car before letting someone clean it. That's just rude and careless.
She had to see it every single day she got into it. She should have been embarrassed any of those days but clearly wasn't. I just don't understand how people are ok with utter filth. 🤮
Thing is I already know she's gonna treat it the same way as she did that lead to this mobile cess Pitt of depravity. It takes more than a car valet it takes a change in your whole mindset and respect for property. Just my opinion lol!
@@crazybabe213 That's probably the only reason otherwise I'm sure it would be rolling around used tampons et all. 😱
The descriptions and the "raw" video without the music and at normal speed is a nice break from the usual.
The new shop looks great!
I would be so ashamed if my car got this dirty. I would not want anyone to see it. This guy is awesome.
How Long Should I leave the Ceramic Spray Coating on?
Have you ever thought about using a back massager to get the dirt out of the deep mat BEFORE you go to the liquid extraction?
I have seen alot of video's of people using them on car's and SOOOO much dirt rides to the surface (INSANE AMOUNTS!) Plus its very visual, idk just a thought
Superb!
I can not tell you how many insanely disgusting details I did in 25 years of owning a small car lot, but it was my specialty. SOOO many full interior tear downs... I too have seen some unexpected things in unexpected places... 🤣
Though it was a great way to make a living for many years, it was unfortunately this kind of work that also physically beat my body down.
(Just some friendly advice from a guy not much older than you) Do anything you can NOW, before it is too late, to keep yourself from having to bend over or crawl around on your hands and knees for long periods of time... If you cheat, you are the only one that will pay for it later! Seriously, brother! For all the pain I am in now from all the hours I spent on the floor or hunched over doing the thing that needed to be done, I wish I had Invested in a small lift for doing all that low to the ground work. It was not until I had already done damage that I started lifting vehicles & using a rolling chair for all the ground work, and elevated surfaces like tables or wall hooks when cleaning seats, trim, etc... Just some suggestions for the long term... 😉 Keep up the great work!
I'm sure this comment gets repeated often, but I just don't understand how people can let a car get this bad. You do great work and keep me motivated to keep my cars pristine! Also love the new shop!
Some excuse for the outside of the car but none for the inside
Wonder what her home looks like
When you have 9 children to look after cleaning a car become somewhat a low priority. She would have a more busier life than most of us so you really cant blame her.
@@herberteirelav oh the outside is perfectly fine, just dirty.
Exactly! That's what I keep saying! Does the creator link them and say "Hey, dont wash your car for months, I want some real cringe for the channel"? This cannot be real man!
@@spaceman7915 she has 9 kids, which means she has 9 reasons why her car shouldn’t look like a dumpster.
I love the work that you do on the vehicles, all it took was one tik tok video and I had to follow you on TH-cam. Keep up the good work
I'm actually shocked that it came that clean. Definitely an amazing job. 👍👍👍
I like that you told us how long it takes you to create your masterpiece! Please keep telling us how long these transformations take you!
Great job as always. She really appreciated it, and it seems they bought it used and this really was the best she's ever seen it look. Very cool. I still can't believe she didn't remove the food and hygiene products before turning it over though. I won't even take a dirty car to the mechanic.
I clean out my car before taking it to mechanic too. I was wondering why she didn't take all that stuff out but then I wondered if he asked her to leave it in so he could promote his channel and products. As for the hygiene products, that's a new one for me but girls are disgusting (everyone thinks it's boys - it's not, girls are so gross... my husband used to clean a high school and office buildings. Girls/women and coaches are the most gross lol) and it wouldn't surprise me if she didn't know that was in there.
How do you do it?!? The quality and standard you set is second to none. Well done! Bravo! The nail polish removal deserves an extra WHOA!
i really liked the over head shot you did with the go pro while pressure washing the vehicle! it’s cool to see your pov when detailing these cars
RE: the nail polish on the seat, I've found that GM weirdly uses surprisingly resilient seat fabrics. They aren't much to sit on or feel, but they do stand up against most stains - pretty much the opposite of their chintzy carpets.
So happy to see the finished product
One thing I learned from this video is that I'll definitely buy a pressure washer when I buy a car.
I just ordered an extractor/spot shampooer. I have a little armor all wet dry vac but i think I'd get a mini vac master if i could do it over. The vac has helped me so much, I've had repeated issues with leaks and related problems that I don't notice until they're a huge deal. You can set it in your car with you so it's way less frustrating and quieter for neighbors. Anyway I'm just missing the extractor. Wish I could have a pressure washer but we aren't even allowed to wash our cars in this complex lol
Disgusting 🙀 An example of how the family doesn’t have to take care of things you have. Props to the detail geek and the magic you make happen.
Let's not judge we don't know what that mother is going through.
@@kingtoyab69 if your gonna have 9 kids you gotta keep stuff tidy
@@kingtoyab69 we don’t care what she is going thru. Everyone goes thru shit on the daily but it doesn’t mean you can slack off. You little have the mindset of a loser😂
@@kingtoyab69 Well, I've seen some people that had a messy flat or house, but the cleanest cars in the whole street, some are just the other way around.
But honestly, picking up the loose thrash after the kids are out, only give them water to drink, and regular wipe down with a damp cloth with a bit of dish soap and a regular vacuum doesn't hurt anyone, that's done in under an hour if you take your time.
I mean, thats how I keep my E46, wich is my pure daily driver, nice and clean. Every 3-4 weeks a vacuum for 30mins, a quick wipe down and cleaning the glass, 1-2h max and the car looks really good.
@@kingtoyab69 usually I give people the benefit of the doubt but a bloody used pad is absolutely horrendous, and rotting meat is just inexcusable.
Amazing job as always man. To think the dealership I worked at wanted this level of detail on all trade ins in under 45 minutes lol
After watching these videos I tried to clean my car. Of course I don't have all the fun toys, but I spend _hours_ on it and felt cheated, since the videos are so much shorter ;)
You inspired me to start my own detailing business. Thank you so much!
I'm pretty sure I've watched all of your videos and this was probably my favorite! 😅 It had filth on every level of cleaning, it had drama and attitude, entertainment, lessons/ tips, crazy weather and more! Plus I love when you do black cars, especially this gross, because you can see all of the muddy water coming from every crevasse and the soap foam looks awesome on it. Just a great video and cleaning, maybe not an ideal detail for a detailer but great for one on TH-cam 😍
Oh and I had to add that I loved the song pick at the end!
I know he has a specific theme going on his channel for super dirty stuff, but as a detailer myself I am extremely glad I have luckily got my business to a point where it's 75% maintenance cleans. I don't have to do details like this a whole lot anymore!!
Someone needs to do a follow up video....how it looks one week later!
After a long time, i watched this detailing fully. It was absolutely filthy and what an amazing transformation!
I really like the new way you present and cut your videos.
What an incredible good job! You really always get the best out of it and try to reach perfection. Absolutely overwhelming result.
