Want viewers to know I tried following your video on restoring leather seats with spray paint and lacquer thinner and am so pleased with the results,I have no experience doing this type of thing .I am a 73 yr. old woman and like to do for myself what I can.Next will do the seat belts,tire rims and lights.Thank you so much for easy to follow info.
@@SweetProjectCars At the end of the video you go "full strength" and then wipe them down. So I assume, I could go right into this step from the start?
You are the only person on here that knows what they are doing and you keep it simple for those of us that don't know to follow. Thanks for all the videos. I send them to a lot of friends.
This worked great. I only used Super Clean diluted 4 to 1(Worked just fine). I just went straight to soaking and grime removal with the cut PVC pipe. I ended up using a 2nd bucked with clean water and using the same PVC pipe to rinse seatbelt out. Spectacular results!
I have been detailing for 10+ years and I have never seen this way to clean a seat belt, looks very effective method to do it, now the only thing is that you will have to work on the car at least for 2 days while you let it soak and dry and all that. I will try this when the time comes to do one of those nasty ones, thanks for sharing.
Just cleaned my seatbelts with straight Super Clean this past weekend on my 2004 Toyota 4Runner. You would not believe the nastiness that came off of all 4...Thanks so much for the tips!
Our pleasure Tammy! Thank you for watching and sharing, we appreciate it, hard to believe how dirty they get isn't it :) Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
"How anybody could live in that kinda stuff, I don't know?" Best and funniest comment I've heard in a while! I laughed so hard hearing that about these nasty dirt seat belts. Awesome, awesome, awesome job and technique!
Sweet Project Cars lol ya know they are bad when it leaves a black stripe on your shirt. My bud bought a car and stopped by on his maiden voyage after getting it,I pointed out the black stripe on his shirt as I met him at the door 😂
I picked up a f-150 with 232,000 miles on it.The truck is in perfect working order I have had it check three times and no defects the old guy that owned it took very good care of it except the drivers side seat belt.This belt is so dirty it won't retract any more it is much worse than the one in your video.This will test to the limit the way you clean them.I am looking forward to finally being able to use the belt again,on my way to wallmart to get some Super Clean right now.thanks for the video.
You didn't mention.. Along with a "Super Clean" belt, you will be surprised has quick and easily your seat belt will retract. A lot of people don't realize that just a good clean of your belts will solve this problem. They just think the retractor is worn out.
oh ya they find that out real quick how much better they retract...thank you very much and we are very glad you are here and love your great comments :)
Many thanks! I did this today and my 7 year old seat belts positively ZIP back when I let them go!! Use gloves and be sure the degreaser liquid you use is suitable for cloth and/or upholstery. Hot tap water, rubbing alcohol. Let the belt soak for an hour or more. Quick, easy brushing, towel, hair dryer, or sun dry....be sure they’re dry! Clothespin worked to keep the belt fully out. This WORKS!
i got Super Clean and it just worked. didnt even have to agitate or scrub for most of the dirt to just get dissolved. you get my "Like" -sincerely, Random internet person me
just came across one of your videos one day and I am now working my way thru them all. you do an awesome job and have great ideas for diy people. keep it up. looking forward to more so I just subscribed. signed... a new fan.
Je Suis Ce Que Je Suis thank you very much ...our customers demand that of us I guess...we look at it this way if you are going to do a job do it right ...thanks for being her with us :)
Thank you Jim I truly appreciate that, it’s comments like yours make it all worth it for all the hard work and time it takes to do these videos thank you very much
Brother, that's a deal your giving that customer, $400. WOW! And you do such great work!! I'm going to try the mother's mag and wheel on the wife's 1997 honda, as soon as we get a day below 90°. I'm pretty much disabled but I get by. then clean and paint my leather seats in my 2000 F-350, the way you showed. I'd love to be able to bring my truck to you to clean, I was thinking you would probably charge that customer $500 or more to do all you said you were going to do. But you seem like are fair guy. Keep up the great work and videos and I'll keep watching with thumbs in the air!!! LOL!!😁
more great information. I can't imagine how you get a seatbelt that dirty. I've bought a lot of old cars, and guess I've been lucky not to see any that bad. Did have one that the seat belt smelled like 5 day old armpits! Never got that out, so away it went.Thanks for sharing
We will take that under advisement JackIce! Thank you for watching and for the sub, enjoy the channel my friend. Have a fantastic week. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I now have a new excuse when i get pulled over for no seatbelt, I don't want to get them dirty 😂 Great Video again. I have Beige seats in my truck , So this is a great how to 👍
Wowsa! I'm gonna gather materials & get on this. My otherwise clean 2004 Toyota Avalon's seat belts look filthy. Detailer told me he doesn't clean seat belts as they are easily damaged by cleaning products. 🙄
LOL, well, you don't need the detailer anyway W. Preston, you got this my friend! Thank you for watching and sharing, hope you have a great week and all the best on your project. mad Mike the hammer SPC
An easy way to do this would be one gallon container 25/75 kleenol 30 degreaser and water use electric power washer lay out belt and wash away. If no power washer, use pvc method. I’m just loving the degreaser cause it works great on ALLOT of things.
Damn brother I hope $400 is enough for your time and expertise on neglected filth like this.. even when I did $75 interior details we didn't have the time it was in and out 45 mins I would just soak the whole car in degreaser and bring it back with dressing. :/ haha
well we bite the bullet a few times with this particular customer they give us about 300 vehicles a year and always pay fast so once in a while we have to TAKE ONE FOR THE TEAM LOL.
I LOVE A PERFECTIONIST! LOL! 🤣 ... I am ONE! so I "get it"!!! I just "happened upon" SPC Channel looking for a solution for my HORRIBLE! HAZY! headlights! ... Mine now look like NEW! on my POS 13+ yo Nitro! ... I just want you to KNOW! that I am NOW! ADDICTED! to your channel !!! I have bought SEVERAL! products you have recommended! ... I am "bond and determined" to make this 'ol POS L👀K! as good as I possibly can! I cannot THANK YOU ENOUGH! ~ Kay Turner~ 🥳🥳🥳 ...
Any suggestions on how I can get the smell of rat feces and piss out of my car.?they got into the ac system and every time I turn it on I can still smell it. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
MrG rent a steam cleaner and mix the solution with 75% distilled water and 25% with rubbing Alcohol. you may have to steam the system a few time over a weeks period to get that catastrophe out of there...wish I could be there to help you.
I pull them on outside of car as far as it goes, spray them down. let it sit and lightly hit it with a pressure washer no more than 1500 psi. Those do it yourself car washes work well also. Dry it and done in no time.
Wouldn't tightening up the other end of the split pipe, so that there is pressure on both sides of the belt be more effective? Maybe a twist to tighten attachment? Or a gasket if necessary.
yes and yes many upgrades to this could be done, we just use it this way because its fast and efficient enough to get the job done as we do 30 to 40 customers cars a week... and you are very welcome, we try to help thanks for being with us :)
What.... No oxy clean?:) Have a question about the seat material, fabric and vinyl can I use the same solution you make to do the floors with in your other video?
oxy clean..HA! I may attempt this on my sisters seatbelts but bc her ish is SO unjustifiably nasty, I’m thinking pressure washing or entire new belts may be a better, less “stressful” option. Love these videos though! The ones on seat repairs are AMAZING!!!
I'm orderin'' me some of that purple surple today. I tried a Dawn dish soap soak, but it didn't cut it. How is the Super Clean Degreaser for rinsability? Is the rinse super important?
We've had great results with it Steve, just follow the video and you will love the result as well. Thanks for watching and sharing, have a fantastic weekend and all the best on your project my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Did you have to rinse the belts with hot water in the end to get all of the super clean out after cleaning them? Thanks for this awesome video going to try it on my car!
In reference seat-belts, how to you restore the red plastic buttons on the seat belt latches? All 5 of mine are faded front and rear. Do you have a recommendation? Thank you
not sure on the chemicals I am sure it is a trade secret we thank you very much and for the quality comment, it is very helpful for the whole channel :)
Can i just skip the pvc pipe part and go to the step of soaking my seatbelts in Super Clean or is doing the pvc pipe part necessary? Thanks in advance!
Hello Francisco if your belts are nasty like the ones in the video you will want to do the PVC part thanks for the question have a great day mad Mike sweet project cars
@@SweetProjectCars Thank you for the response! Also, my seatbelts are not this bad so can i just soak them full strength super clean or soak them with the super clean diluted?
simply, in colder weather we use a fan to help dry it out in a couple hours warmer weather we leave the windows open on a weekend when you are around the car working on other things that need attention next thing you know they are dry.
super clean really is some very strong stuff which is why he wore gloves when using it straight. And OMG if you get into a open cut or anything on your hand it will BURN.
What if you work on dealerships lots and need to get this done in under 30 mins?? great if you have the time, but most of my customers on dealership lots.
Try either of these amzn.to/44TjuL2 or amzn.to/33tPuYw if that doesn't work you may have to repaint them using either of these will do the job amzn.to/2PWOfN3 or amzn.to/2DJPV7Y Hope this helps. Thanks for watching and asking, have a great day and all the best on your project my friend. mad Mike
10 years ago this would have been a mind blowing but 2012 to this date....? A low to mid range 40-50 psi, 200F Cheap Steamers are way more efficient nowadays. A McCulloch 1275 goes for $75 to $120 or buy used for $50. but still this is very brilliant! :)
Very much my friend we try to keep the videos when we can as cost-effective as Possible for those who do not have a penny to spare thank you for sharing have a great night we will see you Friday for the next video
Can you use super clean on leather?? Got an 03 Jetta with grey leather seats but they have been put through the ringer. Still in decent shape but just really dirty. Any ideas??
Yes we will use 50-50 mix with warm water if that doesn’t do it makes 75% super clean and warm water and if that doesn’t do it use the super clean straight Hope this helps my friend
great video! Do you think super clean is better than simple green? I've been using simple green now for a few years but looking for something better. thanks
AND CHEAPER!!!! Super Clean is really slept on. but is sooooo versatile in it's uses and how good it actually cleans. Thank you sir for this real life hack for seatbelts which is really overlooked in the detailing world.
You sure can but if you look through our videos you’ll find one on cleaning nasty carpet we have a concoction there that works way better that you can mix together yourself have a great night
Romeo Torres So true! I made a short handle with no extension nozzle just for seat belt cleaning. This is the best and fastest way to clean seat belt. I detail auction cars and the belt be so nasty. I tell all my customers to look at the belt after I'm done cleaning them with this method.
@@SweetProjectCars, no thank you Mike for your content. I am an obsessed fanatic with keeping the interior of my semi spotless and I learn new tricks from you. Thanks man, and your headliner vids helped get my daughters car cleaned up for trade in.
I would of retract as far as it goes and tie a knot at the top and undo the bottom anchorage and have it hanging outside closed the door then used a bit of degreaser and pressure clean it medium pressure
HELP I WANT IT CLEANED!!! I have a 2012 Used Models85 Tesla. The ceiling, sun visors and areas by the rear windows are real dirty(finger prints, dirt etc). I wanna say its vinyl (idk what else it is, it's not leather). Will Super Clean or 75% Rubbing Alcohol clean it??? Thanks
Jon, my friend here is what you do with a clean lint free cloth or two, mix super clean 50/50 with hot water and start wiping, always remember to spray it on the cloth then wipe..it will take some elbow grease but you will be able to finally say goodbye to dirty fingerprints. thanks for being here with us, we do truly appreciate it:)
Sweet Project Cars so when you say "apply to cloth" do mean to "spray the towel then apply?" or "spray the vinyl then wipe with cloth?". Would using a toothbrush be ok to rough of the vinyl? Thanks
spray the cloth only. yes a small brush is fine...now it the cleaning is not going where you want the mix the ssolution stronger to 75 super to 25 hot water...on really tough stuff we will use super clean full stenght...thanks for being here with us, we do truly appreciate it:)
I've cleaned mine with a steam cleaner. luckily my seatbelts are black to begin with. I never get that much gunk out. The driver of that car must have been a smoker.
Sweet Project Cars Hopefully one of your other sub's will know, thanks for the method and especially that split pipe tool, so simple yet very effective.
if you dont have that product try rubbing alchhol, Isopropyl alcohol is C3H8O and Ammonia is NH3. There would be no harm in mixing the two. I would recommend using in a ventilated area, mix 25% on thee Ammonia and 75% on the Alchhol..
Very nasty job but I have another way I decided to do and I highly suggest for "super cleaning your dirty seatbelts. Stretch them all the way out and bring them outside the door. Close the door, and use your favorite degreaser and a pressure washer on a safe setting. Amazing results in 10 minutes per belt. You'll thank me later 👌
The answer is: poorly. The cut is crooked and jagged. It should be smooth and straight for this tool to be properly effective. It should have been cut with a bandsaw or laser, using a jig/clamp to center it and keep it perfectly straight.
Great work and those belts were awful. When you used your fingernail to push out the dirt it made my skin crawl. Yuk. How did you cut the slot in the pipe? Also, are you selling any products yet?

simply, in colder weather we use a fan to help dry it out in a couple hours warmer weather we leave the windows open on a weekend when you are around the car working on other things that need attention next thing you know they are dry.
How do you keep the belt from retracting?
We use a plastic clamp
JR CARS I just used a clothespin. Worked fine.
Will this method work with Dark Mold spots on the belts or you recommend something else? Thanks.
it works on ANY SPOTS thank you for your great comments, we are glad to have you here with us :)
super clean really is some very strong stuff which is why he wore gloves when using it straight. And OMG if you get into a open cut or anything on your hand it will BURN.
What if you work on dealerships lots and need to get this done in under 30 mins?? great if you have the time, but most of my customers on dealership lots.
Well then you better get humping if you want to get it done in 30 minutes. Thanks for watching and sharing. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Thanks great video!!
you are welcome :)
Thank you so much ‼️🙏🏼❤️
You are very welcome Deborah
Have you tried zep fast 505? How does it stack up to super clean
Daniel Lobato we have tried everything and nothing cleans the belts like Super clean does my friend
What's the best way to get black spray paint off of tan seatbelts??
Try either of these amzn.to/44TjuL2 or amzn.to/33tPuYw if that doesn't work you may have to repaint them using either of these will do the job amzn.to/2PWOfN3 or amzn.to/2DJPV7Y Hope this helps. Thanks for watching and asking, have a great day and all the best on your project my friend. mad Mike
@@SweetProjectCars Thanks for reply! was painting the seatbelt bracket and got a little overspray on the fabric
Where would one purchase this super clean at? Is it safe for carpets aswell?
R.I.P.Squirt& Jinxyhere is where we pick it up my friend amzn.to/2zQhnwO
Sweet Project Cars Ty!
You’re very welcome
10 years ago this would have been a mind blowing but 2012 to this date....? A low to mid range 40-50 psi, 200F Cheap Steamers are way more efficient nowadays. A McCulloch 1275 goes for $75 to $120 or buy used for $50. but still this is very brilliant! :)
Very much my friend we try to keep the videos when we can as cost-effective as Possible for those who do not have a penny to spare thank you for sharing have a great night we will see you Friday for the next video
Can you use super clean on leather?? Got an 03 Jetta with grey leather seats but they have been put through the ringer. Still in decent shape but just really dirty. Any ideas??
Yes we will use 50-50 mix with warm water if that doesn’t do it makes 75% super clean and warm water and if that doesn’t do it use the super clean straight Hope this helps my friend
@Phunky Jr A Magic eraser will raise the fibers and most likely leave a rough finish on the belt. Not something I would want to do to my belt.
great video! Do you think super clean is better than simple green? I've been using simple green now for a few years but looking for something better. thanks
super clean has never let us down so yes it is better
AND CHEAPER!!!! Super Clean is really slept on. but is sooooo versatile in it's uses and how good it actually cleans. Thank you sir for this real life hack for seatbelts which is really overlooked in the detailing world.
THANK YOU D :)
Can you use super clean on the carpets in your car?
You sure can but if you look through our videos you’ll find one on cleaning nasty carpet we have a concoction there that works way better that you can mix together yourself have a great night
Just wondering after you get the seat belt clean does the super clean need to be rinsed out in clear water?
NO SIR...just use clean dry rags to dry it up then let it air dry for a couple hours
ok Thanks
pull the bellt close the door and pressure wash them way easier
Romeo Torres that's what I normally do at work

So true! I made a short handle with no extension nozzle just for seat belt cleaning. This is the best and fastest way to clean seat belt. I detail auction cars and the belt be so nasty. I tell all my customers to look at the belt after I'm done cleaning them with this method.
Thanks genius. I tried that and melted the frigin seat-belt so it wont work at all now!
Rick Truelove How does one “melt” a seatbelt with a pressure washer?
I second the pressure washer, waaay faster method, cheaper, and works better.
Thankfully my belts unbolt in my semi truck, every 6 months I remove and soak in simple green overnight and pressure wash the next day
Too bad that isn't the case for everyone :) Thank you for sharing and watching. Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
@@SweetProjectCars, no thank you Mike for your content. I am an obsessed fanatic with keeping the interior of my semi spotless and I learn new tricks from you. Thanks man, and your headliner vids helped get my daughters car cleaned up for trade in.
What can I use instead of Super Clean?
I would of retract as far as it goes and tie a knot at the top and undo the bottom anchorage and have it hanging outside closed the door then used a bit of degreaser and pressure clean it medium pressure
Thanks for watching and sharing. Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Thank you
Stephen Francisco you are very welcome my friend
WoW !!! Thanks !
John Pick you are very welcome :)
HELP I WANT IT CLEANED!!! I have a 2012 Used Models85 Tesla. The ceiling, sun visors and areas by the rear windows are real dirty(finger prints, dirt etc). I wanna say its vinyl (idk what else it is, it's not leather). Will Super Clean or 75% Rubbing Alcohol clean it??? Thanks
Jon, my friend here is what you do with a clean lint free cloth or two, mix super clean 50/50 with hot water and start wiping, always remember to spray it on the cloth then wipe..it will take some elbow grease but you will be able to finally say goodbye to dirty fingerprints.
thanks for being here with us, we do truly appreciate it:)
Sweet Project Cars thanks! I'll let you know how it goes
awesome thanks for being here with us, we do truly appreciate it:)
Sweet Project Cars so when you say "apply to cloth" do mean to "spray the towel then apply?" or "spray the vinyl then wipe with cloth?". Would using a toothbrush be ok to rough of the vinyl? Thanks
spray the cloth only. yes a small brush is fine...now it the cleaning is not going where you want the mix the ssolution stronger to 75 super to 25 hot water...on really tough stuff we will use super clean full stenght...thanks for being here with us, we do truly appreciate it:)
I've cleaned mine with a steam cleaner. luckily my seatbelts are black to begin with. I never get that much gunk out. The driver of that car must have been a smoker.
fourbypete thanks for sharing and not sure if the driver was a smoker :)
Superclean better than pinesol?
Use the pressure washer!! Not my idea but the best one by far.
super clean is one of the best cleaners we have found...give it a try and see if its better Thank you and thanks for being here with us :)
Thank you and thanks for being here with us :)
Where do you get Super Clean ?
WALMART is the cheapest :_)
Ima try this now
Thanks Ken
Does anyone know if there is an equivalent brand to super clean for us in the UK?
Patrick not sure on that one
Sweet Project Cars Hopefully one of your other sub's will know, thanks for the method and especially that split pipe tool, so simple yet very effective.
if you dont have that product try rubbing alchhol, Isopropyl alcohol is C3H8O and Ammonia is NH3. There would be no harm in mixing the two. I would recommend using in a ventilated area, mix 25% on thee Ammonia and 75% on the Alchhol..
Nice, I have loads of Isopropyl already, just need some ammonia. Thanks for the recipe.
you are very welcome
LOVE your videos - and that was disgusting!
Zack Schulz thank you very much ...and it was disgusting :)
Very nasty job but I have another way I decided to do and I highly suggest for "super cleaning your dirty seatbelts. Stretch them all the way out and bring them outside the door. Close the door, and use your favorite degreaser and a pressure washer on a safe setting. Amazing results in 10 minutes per belt. You'll thank me later 👌
problem is we tried that but you can get the dirt out of the belt that is shut in the door...but thank you :)
Gads that's remarkable.
thank you
He did you split your pvc pipe?
hacksaw thanks for asking :)
The answer is: poorly. The cut is crooked and jagged. It should be smooth and straight for this tool to be properly effective. It should have been cut with a bandsaw or laser, using a jig/clamp to center it and keep it perfectly straight.
Great work and those belts were awful. When you used your fingernail to push out the dirt it made my skin crawl. Yuk.
How did you cut the slot in the pipe? Also, are you selling any products yet?
no sales we love people to come here without being spammed :)
Is anyone inlove with the bird chirping??
LOL... thanks for the watch. Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Super Clean is awesome, just don't inhale the spray by mistake. 🤢
you got that
Sweet Project Cars was just using it 2 days ago and about gagged. Lol 🤣🤣🤣
ya its much like gasoline you don't want to be smelling it...pump it in and be done.
Omg, those belts are disgusting! Yuck!!
You are absolutely correct they were some of the worst we’ve seen in a while thank you for sharing have a great day
Sweet Project Cars Yw, hope you have a great day aswell.
The rest of the world doesn't have "Super Clean" is there anything else?
Sorry there is really nothing else that we have found it works better than that have a great day my sweet project cars
hi
Hello Babak, thank you my friend :) we are very glad you are with us
