Great job Heather. To save knee pain later on in life, get yourself a kneeling mat. You will definitely be thankful you used one when you get older.
Thank you! I do have one actually but sometimes just forget to grab it when I’m filming 😊
@@AutoCareHQ get yourself a full hazmat suit padded out with cotton wool 👍🏼
@@gillywash1487 Imagine 😂
Great job, as usual, 👌,, hope the owners appreciate your hard work,, 💪😃😃
Thanks John! The owner was really pleased with it 😊
Looks almost like new now, always like a clean interior as its where you look at your car the most. Love the accent Heather, it does make a change from a southern one which most seem to be on TH-cam.
Thanks very much Paul! 😊
عمل رائع جدا ومنظم ومرتب متابعك من المملكة العربية السعودية
شكرا لمشاهدتك
Great video as always!
Thank you!
Brilliant work. I commented on your videos over a year or more ago. Said then you were more than capable of professionally detailing. So glad you are where you are today. Your work's A++. Congratulations on your success.
Thanks very much John I appreciate it!
Although I enjoy the usual exterior detail videos, I love a good interior detail! (And engine bay detailing).
Thanks for watching Tony!
I just discovered this channel and am thoroughly enjoying it. Heather does a great job of explaining what she’s doing as she’s detailing the cars. I just subscribed and am looking forward to more videos!❤
Thanks very much! 😊
Great work. First time watcher but not the last. Keep it up
Thanks very much!
Just as an after thought. A vibrating tool to use on carpets to remove deeper ingrained sand/dirt will be better to use than the brush on a drill which works but always creates more dust. Vibrating tool with hoover going. Better finish, less work. 👍
Keep up the good work. 😊
Thanks for the tip! 😊
i was going to reply the same. i saw a vid where the detailer put an electric sander on while using the vacuum.
Quite a transformation to the cars interior Heather! Going about the cleaning in the right with the right products really highlights what can be done and the transformation that work brings. Chapeau Heather 👏
Thanks very much Graham!
@Auto Care HQ Have a grand week ahead, Heather.......looking forward to the next Auto Care HQ video!
Hi, nice to see you doing an interior detail Heather, which I know is not yr forte 😅 but still a cracking result with just a couple of products, lovely job xx
Cheers Rodney! This car did remind me why I don't like doing interiors very often 😂
Another fantastic and informative video Heather as always
Thanks Mark! :)
Top job as always Heather. Love an interior detail 👍
Cheers Steve!
Well done & explained! Picking up some tips from you
Lovely job, quite the transformation 👏
Thanks Lee!
Superb transformation. They always say the average car has more germs in its interior than the average toilet seat. Easy to see why!
Thanks Peter! Haha I always make sure I've got my gloves on for that reason 😂
Great work🤙⭐️
Another outstanding job!!! Absolutely love it
Thank you!
That was a big job. Glad to see you have a Henry these days. That handheld you used to have wouldn’t have coped!
Your range and choice of detail products for the job is top tier, video quality is equally superb. So Cal detailer here.
Thanks for watching!
Great production Heather, satisfying turnaround.
Thanks guys!
I fleet the pain and joy in that clean nice up load 😊
Nice job on the leather Heather. Happy Easter 🐰👍
Thanks and Happy Easter!
Amazing. Think I would of walked away from this one. Looked crap. Well done. Really impressed with your work.
Thank you! It was a bit of a challenging one!
Hi Heather,wow what a difference with dog hair and dust it's totally transformed to a new interior.
Cheers Steven!
Great video H! You really have a natural flare for video & editing as well
Thanks very much Mick!
Great transformation heather really enjoyed that one
Thank you! :)
Brilliant job like new again ❤
Thanks Raymond!
Nice job ,looks great
Thanks Simon!
Excellent turn around.
Cracking job
Some excellent products there used
Cheers Steve!
Great Job Heather,Hope they paid you well,That looked like hard work!!
Was a helpful video,I’m not to sure when it comes to products for the interior 👍
Thanks Richard!
Great job Heather. Interiors I find to always be the hardest as some can be really bad. Also to film them can be hard as well, I know as I'm in the middle of editing one i did last week. You did a really good job on this one and captured all the angles of the clean, well done 🙌
Thank you! You’re absolutely right, interiors are a real pain to film I don’t like doing them nearly as much as exteriors
@@AutoCareHQ yeah same here. Great job 👍
Holy moly, sand AND dog hair 🙈
Great job right there Heather 👍
Thanks Kevin! Haha it was a lovely combination 😂
Very nice job Heather! I was a bit off watching lately, and I just realised how much I missed your videos. Great transformation and very well presented content, as always, well done 🔥
Thanks very much Viktor! It was a bit of a tough job and reminded me why I usually only clean exteriors 😂
@@AutoCareHQ 😅
Awesome job
Thanks!
Great job!
Cheers Dan!
Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
hello, this vid answered my previous question - I'll have a look at the garage therapy serum, it looks like it will work well for me.
Loving the videos Heather, just so relaxing, the voice over, the sounds of the brushes etc, would be great to see more of these, thanks....
Thanks very much, I've got plenty more lined up!
Amazing difference from before to after, fantastic job Heather!! I like to use an old electric toothbrush on the pedals 😀
Thanks very much Colin! Good idea!
Great job Heather. I find those little white magic eraser sponges work very well on interior plastics with or without using an APC.
Thanks very much Frank!
Great video Heather. I too use the Leather Repair Company's products after they were recommended by our friend up North, GM Details. I find them so easy to use and the smell of the leather afterwards is fantastic. I've just applied Garage Therapy dash serum last week for the first time, so will see how it goes regarding the dust.
Thanks Paul! The LRC products are really good, I have their cleaner as well as the protection cream and use that a lot on my own car
Brilliant result Heather I must try the GT dash serum it looks good. I must get a few items from colour lock.
Thank you! Both are great products I’d definitely recommend giving them a go
Goodness me Heather. Dirty would be an understatement 😊 great job. I recently tried a hybrid Turtle Wax fabric cleaner on my interior it had good results.
Thanks Stephen! That turtle wax cleaner is really good too
Fantastic job
Cheers Mike!
Just wow, great job
Thanks for watching!
@@AutoCareHQ I watch all your videos they’re great.
I’m struggling with plastic trim/skirts looking tired on a new vehicle. Any recommendations please
@@yukishredder Most trim dressings should be able to make a decent improvement but if you're looking for something very durable then Gtechniq C4 Permanent Trim Restorer is what I'd recommend
Great job!!!
Thank you!
Looks like you found that car down the tip heather you certainly had plenty of work to do it looks amazing now bet you were glad to get that out of the way great job as always
Cheers Dave, it was a pretty big job!
perfect !
I think sand is worse than pet hair, sand just keeps coming out of the carpet forever 😮
Great job again BTW 😎
Thanks Steve! Removing all the sand wasn’t very fun 😂
Fantastic turnout Heather. It must have been rather daunting tackling a job like that with the sand and pet hairs and what best method to use. Well done looks like it was a job well done 👍
Thanks very much Darren!
Beautiful job! May I suggest backing off on your detail brushes, the tips of any brush or broom are meant to do the work. Hope I am not out of line. Girl power!🇨🇦
I really appreciate your work because unlike some of your competitors detailers you also work on "daily" cars and not necessarily on lambos, ferraris, jags .... which brings you closer to us in this beautiful world of detailing
For the interior I would just suggest an air compressor which I would use in the inlets of the leather seats to get those crumbs out and for the carpeting. For the rest, really great work, both techniques and above all conscious use of the products
Thanks Francesco! Thanks for the recommendation too, I don't do too many interiors but will probably start doing some more so would be good to get some equipment upgrades to help
good vid
Happy Easter!🐰
Brilliant transformation looks fabulous!
I was playing Guess the car from the interior, I got VW quite quickly but was stumped on the model, until the last few seconds when I saw that on the dashboard it says "Passat" 😳!
Thanks very much! Happy Easter!
Nice..
глядзець такую работу адно задавальненне, дзякуй. добры хранаметраж, нават не паспеў засумаваць. прыемна слухаць твае каментарыі. З задавальненнем, падпіска.
LOL, you just know that at 3.34 you were thinking f****g sh** carpets! Great job though.
Very nice cleaning! Very good filming angles and cuts. I find the cuts to be hardest.
Thank you very much!
Hello Caretakers. For god's sake, this car have seen a massive overuse und a lot of neglection. Nice to see your work on the inside of this heavy case. Great job!
Thanks very much!
I've been waiting to see you do an interior. Great job as always! It's so satisfying to use a cleaner that foams as you agitate. Do you use a steamer?
Thank you! I don't have one atm but probs will get one in the near future
Nice
Nice work Heather. That was minging but you did your magic. I might try that leather protectant. Bet you wanted a shower after that, I do and I just watching lol. Thanks for the video 👍
Thank you! Haha I was exhausted after it but did feel a bit grim 😂
I love all your vids, but I really enjoyed this interior clean, I think the before and after comparisons are more dramatic than the external washes.
Thanks very much for watching!
Not my favourite job but I watch with interest.
Hi what shampoo do you recommend that foams up when on fabric upholstery
This is why my next car which hopefully will be getting shortly, will have rubber mats. So much easier to clean.
franchement cela fait plaisir de voir une femme faire du lave auto et encore plus quand cela est bien fait. juste pour le cuir tu encore plus le nettoyer en profondeur avec du savons noir mais attention au cuir déjà vieux.
Did a great job Heather on the interior, although I can understand why people let their cars get into such a condition. I've found Gyeon mild leather cleaner and ceramic coating has been quite effective on keeping my white interior in very good condition. I look forward to your next video.
Thanks Simon! I'd love to try a leather coating, I think it would be a good shout on my car. I'll keep an eye out for the Gyeon one next time I place an order :)
What hoover is that please ? 😊 ( what you used on the mats for pet hair)
Great job on the interior Heather, they can be a real pain in the butt sometimes, 👍👍
Cheers Eamon! Definitely, it's much easier cleaning the exterior a lot of the time
hey. always enjoy your detailing videos. GREAT CONTENT. Thanks.
I also have one question. I see you use this nozzle for your pressure gun where you can adjust the output pressure i believe.
it looks like it can also adjust to variable degrees for the spray?
could you please confirm that and where do you get one?
I don't see it listed in your other detailing videos.
Thank you in advance.
Thanks Andy! So in this video I just used the standard Karcher one as I was borrowing this pressure washer for the day. Usually I use the Car Scope UK ones with my Kranzle but they aren't adjustable so I have separate 25 and 40 degree one.
@@AutoCareHQ Gotcha! Thank you for your feedback and ressponse
Absolutely fantastic job done, very professional. What kind of price range would this cost a client?
Thanks Imran! I actually just did this car for free for a friend. I normally only do exterior detailing professionally as I don't really enjoy interior cleaning 😂 However with this being quite a large estate car with a big boot and based on the time taken to do it it'd probably be in the region of £100
Nice video Heather. Thankfully this car had leather interior, otherwise it may have tripled your cleaning time. I’m surprised you were able to pick up all that dog hair without the aid of a Lilly brush or pumice. I’ve been meaning to try Colourlock on my leather seats. I heard it’s great stuff. Pricey though but worth it. 😊
Thanks Jeffrey :) I was very glad about the leather seats, made my life a lot easier. I was pretty surprised the vacuum dealt with the dog hair so easily, I had a pet hair brush on hand just in case but luckily it wasn't needed
Heather can you tell me where you got the green sponge mitt from ?
Great video by the way.
Thanks Mark :) Pretty sure I bought that one from Halfords quite a while ago
Looks like a new car now! Guessing there would be 1 happy owner then? #happyeaster :)
Happy Easter James :) Yep they were buzzing with it which was really nice!
Top work, Heather.👍The interior looks factory fresh. Which make and model of hoover do you use?
Thank you! It’s a Henry HVR160, I’ve popped a link to it in the description 😊
@@AutoCareHQ Thanks, Heather.👍
Hello Heather i hope the Easter bunny visited you! 🐇
I am currently binging on Easter eggs 😂
What an amazing finish. Obviously I am aware of Garage Therapy having used most of their products apart from Ceramics to good effect. With regards Yum products I have recently watched a few try out reviews and been very impressed so I might dip my toe in the water with that brand and like wise with Koch Chemie as that Green Star product seems to get rave reviews not that I need any more APC as I think I have gallons of it. I listened to your podcast with Paul & Specky recently and it was a good listen.
Thanks very much John! I think I’m gonna give the GT interior cleaner a try next, looks like a really good one
@@AutoCareHQ That's my weapon of choice currently.
Well done beautiful lady
How long did it take Heather from start to finish? Not including the filming. Great job👍
Thanks Stephen :) I think without filming this would have taken about 3-4 hours
Hi, Heather, I hope you are well, excellent job, I have done interior job on my car last week I really hate the interior but with your technic look very easy, oh my goodness it was so dirty. I have a question for you which speed did you use on the drill, Thank you.
Thanks Jorge! Hope you're well too :) I'm not actually sure if I am honest as I filmed this a couple of months back. Off the top of my head this drill didn't have any speed settings but I had the trigger pulled about midway so it definitely wasn't on the max speed
@@AutoCareHQ I have the same set of brushes for the carpet but I didn't use i will try speed number 3 will be okay. 👍
That was a mucky job, nothing worse than dog hairs. Nice to see someone else using a Henry hoover for cars, had mine for 16 years now and still going strong.
Hi Heather, another fab video. I was hoping you might be ble to help with a common issue I keep having. When I finish a detail on my X5 - I use the Gyeon Q2M Wet coat when the car is still wet and then apply a small amount per panel and jet wash off. Whenever I come to then dry the car I have spots all over it. I'm guessing it is the Gyeon and not hard water spots and it must be down to me doing something wrong. Any ideas? Much appreciated as always :) Cheers G
Thank you!
Are you rinsing it off immediately after applying to a panel or applying to the whole car and then rinsing? Also are the panels definitely cool when you're applying it?
If you're working panel by panel and the car is cool then the only other thing I can think of is that the Wet Coat just isn't really getting on with any protection underneath. It's quite rare but sometimes layering products like that can be finicky
@@AutoCareHQ Typically it is not hot, especially this time of year, but the car is Black so I guess it does attract the heat more. I spray one panel, jet wash off, then move to the next panel and repeat. My car has recently been fully Ceramic coated so not sure if that is the issue? Thanks so much for the advice and getting back to me. Cheers :)
Very impressive turnaround Heather, nice looking interior or is that the dogs bed 😢
Cheers Mark!
Hi Heather.
What would you ( or anyone else) recommend on my VW Transporter rear rubber flooring. It gets quite dirty with bikes/dogs etc. I’ve tried so many things, warm soapy water, general sprays etc even liquid shoe polish but the mud just comes right back when it dries. I’m sure I even steamed it at one point.
Any products or techniques you can suggest…………..? Thanks
A strong APC should usually work but if that's not managing it then you could try a tyre cleaner, something like Autoglanz Rebound or Gyeon Tire Cleaner should hopefully shift it if you agitate using a fairly stiff brush
@@AutoCareHQ I’ll purchase one of those and give it a try, thanks for the reply…………😁
I really enjoyed the video Heather. What was the name of the cleaner ?
Thanks John! I used Yum Interior on the plastics and Colourlock Leather Cleaner on the seats/ steering wheel :)
Fantastic job Heather, the owner of that car should be ashamed of the interior, hope you got paid well.
Thanks Nigel!
Can you go over how to get rid of a smoke smell from the interior... Even AFTER doing a deep interior clean like this? I'm having this problem meself.
I think the best thing to do is to target the roof liner if you've cleaned all the other fabrics in the car. You could use a steam cleaner or just try an APC and microfiber towel but be careful not to saturate it too much or it could start to sag
Oh lord that before shot... "Yea I'll just let my detailer handle it"
😂😂
I need to get better at interior work. Couple things. I really get sore doing all the cleaning. Seems like I'm always bending in angles trying to clean. The other is it's pretty gross. In reality it's a living space for part of a day. Decaying food, pet waste, human waste, bacteria, and even viruses. Not only gross, but unhealthy and dangerous. There's been a few times I had to say no. I'm not judging people, but some vehicles I have to say no.
But some of your techniques are pretty cool. If vehicles are not trashed/hammered, I'm going to try some of them. The conical brush on drill was pretty cool. Thanks for your courage Heather!
Thanks for watching Kim 😊 Completely get that, interiors aren’t that fun to clean at all. Luckily this was mostly just dog hair and sand but if there’s anything mouldy or really gross then I would draw the line as well
That car was minging 😂
👍👍👍
What’s the little attachment for hoover plz looks tiny
It's just the one that comes with hoover as standard. I've linked the model in the description
That's a brilliant job Heather. 🙂What car was it? x
Thanks! It was a VW Passat :)
@@AutoCareHQ I want to get a Passat estate for taking rubbish to the tip but would have to clean it up afterwards 😂😂 x
Good Heavens, do people actually allow their car interiors to get into that state?😱
An excellent job returning it to normal. 👍
Thanks Stephen!
Because you have the doors open a lot of the time do you disconnect the battery before hand?
Nope I didn't
@@AutoCareHQ is there any time you would?
@@justbradley5930 I've never run into any issues to be honest so unless I knew the car already had a low battery I wouldn't really bother. The lights go off really quickly on this car so it wouldn't have drained it much at all
Great result 👍 I enjoy interiors but you need to be quite inventive with the camera positions 😂
Thanks Craig! Haha that’s very true, had quite a few near misses trying to balance the camera 😂
I hate cleaning the leather seats in our car. My young daughter likes nothing more than resting her mucky trainers on the back of the front passenger seats. I've used leather creams, but I like the way this foams up. A great thing for really removing sand and dirt from the mats or carpets is an air compressor. I borrowed my neighbours and it blast it out.
A compressor would be very useful to have! I'd definitely recommend this leather cleaner too
