I would think the auction price might have been a few thousand for this car. It sure cleaned up nice, but there was still some damage from years of abuse that even an expert detail won't fix. The seat, the roughed up plastic. But they will sure get a good price now.
The Pink goo is homemade Slime it looks like. Elmer's glue, plus their "Activator" and some foam beads added in for texture. My youngest sister was obsessed with the stuff when in middle school.
Every time you towel dry the exterior of even the worst shitbox... You show that you truly care, in a sense. You respect the Machine for what it has gone through, and show you care for your work before releasing it into its next life.
Dried homemade slime. I am saddened that I was able to recognize it so fast. I am also surprised this is the first time you’ve encountered it on a family car as it was a huge craze about 5 years ago.
I don't think he showed it, but the rear passenger panel had tack oil on it from roadwork. When I worked for the DOT, we used diesel fuel to remove it from the head engineer's truck as well as our boots. Years later I found a substitute product called Citrol that does just as good, maybe better, and smells a lot better, like oranges.
I use Citrol all the time, can't recommend it enough. From Sharpie permanent marker, to sticker adhesives & tar; It's the safest yet most effective I've ever found
LOVE Citrol!!!! My hubby worked at a foundry and got ALL kinds of oil in his shirts and pants....Citrol took it all out! I am convinced the crud it removed ruined my washer after a decade! Oil ALWAYS removes a sticky better than gas, kerosene, alcohol....ANYTHING amd Citrol is truly THE BEST! I'd use it still, except Amazon is only seller in our area, and it's $15 PER bottle - we can't afford that! Dawn works great, too
27:04 “sometimes the simplest of tools can be the most useful” I swear I thought he was going to say “ and that’s why I’m introducing the new detail geek screwdriver” lol😂
Don’t beat yourself up over this, Mitch. The car turned out fantastic! I’ve driven a Taurus and I know how hard it is to keep them clean because of low quality material
Been watching your videos for about 4 years now! Every video still amazes me with the level of attention and respect you give every vehicle! Keep up the good work Mitch! 😊
First time seeing a Taurus wagon kinda cool and The carpeted wheel liners that Ford uses are an option you can add, although it can be hard to clean it really helps in places like the salt block can be nice for extra underbody protection overall.
Lol. My daughter came back from shopping one day and swore she bought a package of individually wrapped cheese slices, but it wasn't in any of the shopping bags. I found it under the front passenger seat about 2 summers later. It looked and smelled like it had just been purchased. Now that is truly scary. Opening any of the doors in her van is a challenge. An empty water bottle, a random toy, someone's homework, fries, empty Wawa coffee cups, one never knows what will fall out. I am glad she doesn't smoke. This channel is inspiring me to take better care of my car.
That looks like my niece and nephew mother's truck. I never thought I would see another one like her. What an amazing job.. and she needs you to clean her SUV 😂❤️
I cannot believe how well you transform cars! I am also not able to believe how little people care about their vehicles. They have two alloys, a steel wheel and then driving on the spare. The spare looks like it has been driven on far too long.
We had to take the captain’s seats out of our minivan for a trip today. Looking around at all the dirt and debris, my 15yo son and I agreed that we suddenly felt like we were in a Detail Geek video. 😂 Not horrible, but definitely want to vacuum tomorrow before they go back in! Excellent work as always, Mitch. 👍🏻👍🏻
For vacuuming carpets, I've seen a random orbital tool, or anything that vibrates intensely, being used to loosen dirt and dust on a carpet with a vacuum neaby and making it super easy to vacuum up. Would love to see you prove it works!
I used to love power washing out hatches that were full of dirt like that. I don’t know why, but having done this kind of work for many years I really enjoy watching these videos. I guess they “take me back”.
The pink goopy stuff most definitely is dried up slime! My daughter noticed what it was as soon as she seen it lol.. She loves watching your vids with me!!! Keep up the good work brotha 🖤✊🏾🤙🏾
idk I think the carpet looked SO MUCH BETTER after you extracted it. I think wanting it to be perfect is impossible, especially with such a well used car and well used carpet. I think it looks INFINITELY better and probably feels infinitely better. good job, man!
20:57 The goo looks like dried crunchy slime to me. People would add beads and ball to their slime to give it a crunchy texture, not to mention the pink color gives me the impression that it looks like some slime you can get at certain gift shops and toy shops.
This takes me back to Night Ride which aired on Global TV in Canada. There were only four one hour episodes made, but it became very popular. The jazz music that played was so good and the places they went in Toronto were fun to watch.
Hello there Detail Geek. It is always so good to see you. This video 📷📸 was awesome. You always know how to bring a dirty vehicle to life every time. And I admire you for that. Thanks for everything you do. Your hard work and dedication is outstanding 💪👍
Of course it’s going to look somewhat decent, why would he be uploading this video if there wasn’t a transformation. I swear people are getting dumb every day.
I was literally wondering why outside first as I had assumed you'd dirty up the doors with all the dust and muck being transported out but I guess you can always quick rinse the outside again as its all new dirt. letting the seals drip dry would take much longer so yeah, your way makes sense.
I never imagined myself watching such a video to the end without even skipping a single part,, this was so satisfying i enjoyed every moment. Thank you for sharing 😊
The pink goo looks like a Smarties Milk Shake that was sun-dried in the tray - disguising, to say the least. Great Job Mitch, it was a really hard detail!
@thedetailgeek came out so better & like new again the owner is gonna be so happy to see it again so beautiful day you did it big blessings 🙏 from down south pharr Texas
Outstanding transformation today, you’ve really been knocking them out of the park lately! I’m only sorry you’ve had such disastrous vehicles to work on. On the other hand, it’s been supremely satisfying to watch for us, sorry. Thanks for sharing another disaster!
Awesome job as always. People need to start at a young age to teach their children how to take care for and appreciate the things they have. It helps if the parents actually care. 🥺
The music was 1000% better in this video! Please don’t go back to the other stuff…..I always turn the sound off and read the transcript. It is nice to hear your voice! Excellent job as always!😊
@jayden56858 That's why I appreciate what my mother did for me and my sisters when she prohibited us from eating Fast food like mcdonald's and burger king when we were kids. That was crazy and cool, but now we realized that she so much garbage, especially being so young
Maybe it's because I'm a mechanic's daughter, but I totally agree with you on the screwdriver. Sometimes that is the only thing that does the trick! Thanks for another great detail!
Do you ever take out the carpet to clean underneath it? I feel like you would get the carpet cleaner if you could take it out and pressure wash it like you do the mats.
@@melinda-elisatatar4253 Actually there is no glue on factory carpets. They are formed to the floor very precisely, which help a lot. But also the seats, center consoles, and rocker panel plastics hold it in place very well. It is usually quite a bit of work to get the carpets in and out, even with the seats already out.
I whole-heartedly agree, though I call it a 'near-restoration' at that point. When I get a used car (from owner) for myself, I end up taking half/or all the carpets out in a partial gutting & clean. I even take the inner door-panels off, to wash out the drizzle spills from cup-holders in the deep-dive for my car(s). Though I've found that a pressure washer often isn't needed; A hose left sitting in the sun for warm water spray rinsing, Dawn dish soap & ammonia mix in a pump sprayer for detergent, and a hand brush of your choice: Does wonders for everything short of moldy seat-belts.... And for that, a soak in oxy-clean overnight removes the last splotches completely
Mitch you did an awesome job on this vehicle and you always make these car's and trucks look like new again but sometimes the carpets are gonna look as good as it gets, there's not much you can do when the carpets are already messed up awesome transformation Mitch have a great weekend
I have always done like you and cleaned my vehicles inside & out when first in my possession. I am so glad I have never let my purchase get into a total filthy condition.
This probably went for $200-$300 at auction. $400 max with fees. Basically a junkyard car, but if you clean it up you could retail it and maybe make $500-$2000 in profit if it's mechanically sound
You would be surprised on how many of these kind of cars go through Auction. I worked at Manhiem Auto Auction in Pennsylvania for 2 years and I've seen plenty of cars that are just trash inside and outside.
They could’ve bought for multiple reasons. They could’ve bought it to flip it. You can buy them to have an extra work vehicle. And sometimes people buy them at auction for their kids when they start driving. My first car that I bought with my own money was bought at an auction.
This has to be in your top 10 of the worst cars you’ve ever detailed! 😷 I have a lot of siblings and my Mom and Dad would’ve never allowed their vehicles to get like this. Those McDonald’s fries - alone - could’ve easily been 15 years old. I would’ve wanted to use that lighter you found - along with an empty spot in a junkyard - to throw the whole car away! 🗑️🚮🔥 I also saw a cigarette butt that had the statement “CIGARETTES CAUSE IMPOTENCE” on it. I would say more on that but it would probably hurt some feelings. 😄 Keep up the great work on your channel, Sir! It’s so relaxing to watch you breathe life into cars that some would send straight to the junkyard and/or crusher. 🙌❤️😌
How much do you think this car went for at auction, and would you buy it? 🤔
Crazy transformation on this one though! Have a great weekend!!

Its trash. In the US, where most people do not own their cars...who would buy it? Just lease a new one.
@@TheDetailGeek $2500
I'd say it's probably around $5,000. 🤔

I’ll second this and agree that it was once Floam.
Yes it is
As a mother with adult children and an educator, I do believe that pinkish-red goo was in fact Floam, circa 2010-2012.

I forgot this car existed, but I should point out the Taurus X was only made 2008-2009, in 2007 it was still the Freestyle.
just imagine the mechanical part of that car….last oil change also in 2007
yeah i feel bad for the poor sap who bought the car at auction...maybe they're a shadetree mechanic lol
Ah yes because not spending thousands to clean a worthless car means you didn't maintain it seriously grow up
I have to say, the Detail Geek glass cleaner is one of the best, if not the best glass cleaners available!
Thank you!!
Dude I respect you clean this nasty ass cars and your will power of not putting looking at it or smelling it
Yeah, it's nice that he never judges the people. To him it's just another vehicle that needs to be cleaned, that's it.

I love these videos. They almost have a This Old House vibe with the music and how you show your work. "This Old Auto"? LOL
My question is, WHY THE HECK DID SOMEONE PAY MONEY FOR THIS CAR. Looking good already 2 mins in though
if it is cheap enough then you get a good deal I guess
because they can be super cheap and with a little love you can get quite a steal.
if its mechanically sound these make good work / delivery vehicles.
