Honey,I Steamed Cleaned my Car!

[beeza]

I hired a steam cleaner for 4 hours from Woolworths for $32 + $7 for the Upholstery cleaning solution.You just need 2 forms of ID,no deposit.

Easy as to use,it took me 2 hrs to do the whole car,doing a mickey mouse job.

2 Front seats
Rear seat
4 Mats
Floor carpet

I ended up with 4 big bucket full of black water

It's amazing the amount of slime that accumulates over the years

Anyways time!

[I heart the SSS]

I might do this for both our cars..

The original plan was to split the cost with my mate and do 2 cars,but he got lazy.

$40 is way worth it cause I did a real shmick job,no joe blow is gonna do half the job I done,money very well spent.

I had plans to do my pillow and a rug but the car gets priority hehehe

You could do 2 cars and have it back in 4 hrs if ya get stuck in,no probs.

I found a DIY on Youtube of it and when I saw him tip out the black slime water,I was like Damn! cause his car wasn't old!

Now my car is Clean and freah smelling Mmmmmmmmm Fa-resh!

make sure the carpet and the upholstery dry properly.. it may smell nice n fresh for now, but it could end up with foul smell from the semi wet carpet n upholstery.

You mix say 100 ml of the cleaning solution with 8 litres of HOT water.

Pour that into the bottom part/bucket of the steam cleaner.When you press the trigger it squirts out the solution and vacumns hard at the same time,sucking all that crap up and into the top collector/bucket of the steam cleaner.

Here's the DIY

Thats a pretty good post but not really a new idea. Rep point to you.

Dude people pay that much for a exterior wash and a minor interior detail.

IMO Cleaning your carpets to THIS level is worth the 20-50 bucks you will spend + the Beer.

Remembering once you steam clean the carpets it smells a shizzle load better
