    I’ve just uploaded a new video demoing the SpotWash Max (upgraded model to this one) which is available with a hefty discount code. Here’s a link to the video: th-cam.com/video/2BuXqIl23S0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=a_abkpnp1xuq5wCi

    Best way to do this is to put the solution in a spray bottle and use the vax to clean the solution out of the carpet/material.

    Still feel these are great but expensive. Have a bulky vax machine the parents bought which does the job. You don't realise how much dirt is hidden in the interior. Cleaned the seats on my VW UP and it turned the cleaning solution black

    • @AutoCareHQ
      @AutoCareHQ  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah I get what you mean. It's cheap comparatively to other machines but they still are a pretty big investment. It's perfect if you can borrow one as it doesn't need doing too often

    Just wondering, isn't the 2nd option of using this the same as if you would use a wet vacuum cleaner? Of course you would need to wet the fabrics with water with another sprayer. Thx :)

    The drill brush method seems to be more effective and the one that most detailers I’ve seen on TH-cam employ. This machine also seems to be comparable to the Bissell Spot Clean , a very popular machine. My antedote for stains and dirt is to buy a car with leather upholstery. I know I sound bougie, but for me it’s worth it.

    • @AutoCareHQ

    No way should you use a pressure washer on car mats, , Pressure washer should only be used on concrete or steel, All you do is destroy the fabric..

    Technically, these are really only spot cleaners, but they do save getting out the larger types or using the more expensive commercial types for just car seats or mats. There are various brands that do similar jobs, but I like the look of the self clean function and the removable clear head component. Keep up with the content.

    Doing a very amateur interior clean on my car, for the dashboard and plastics, I always use an anti static foam cleanser from the lines of Electrolube or whatever Tool Station happens to have in stock. Had some marks on passenger seat and thought I’d try spraying lots of the foam cleanser on it, and then used my steam cleaner with brush attachment to agitate it and it did look a lot better. I’ve seen another popular TH-camr sometimes do a similar method but either brushing an interior cleaning solution in with a steam brush and they also seem to get good results l, on one, you can see the dirt rising to the top. Being a new subscriber I was going to ask you about interior cleans lol

    Once your solution runs out, go with equal parts water and white vinegar, a dash of fairy liquid and some lavender oil (if you're into that sort of thing)
    For some jobs you can add baking soda as well but slowly and carefully. Car seats are the sort of job I would add baking soda for.
