Interior Restoration
approximately 4 - 16 hours depending on the interior condition and size
Introduction
The Interior Restoration service includes all of the interior detail steps but also goes above and beyond with in-depth cleaning by repeating the carpet extraction and steam cleaning steps in the interior detail service until all surfaces and stains are cleaned and removed to their fullest extent. Essentially we’re detailing the vehicle multiple times over. Some vehicles need to be detailed just twice which would be between 4-8 hours, while some need to be detailed even more which makes it a multi-day restoration project. This service can be used to restore a vehicle from fire damage, heavy smoke odor removal, mold restoration, and trauma-related cleaning. We can even have the upholstery repaired when requested in the contact form down below.
General Guideline of the Step-by-Step Process:
Two detail technicians will arrive on-site to perform the service.
We put on our Tyvek Hazmat Suits and P95 respirators for regulatory purposes.
We then proceed to vacuum the entire interior of the vehicle removing all pet hair, dirt, or loose debris.
We proceed to perform the 5-step restoration:
One detail technician sprays degreaser soap onto the section of carpet or seating.
The other detail technician is using a soft drill brush to loosen the fabric and activate the degreasing soap into the material.
Steam is applied to the section to heat up the fabric and lift any stains to the top of the material.
The section is then immediately extracted by the other detail technician using a Mytee Lite Carpet and Upholstery Extractor to physically remove the stain.
The section’s fabric is then loosened again using a Tornador pulse spray pneumatic cleaning gun.
The 5-step restoration is repeated all over again on all 2’ x 2’ sections.
Restoration of headliner: we use the Tornador pulse spray pneumatic cleaning gun to clean the headliner using powerful degreasing soap to neutralize any odor-causing contaminants.
We then wipe the headliner with a clean and soft microfiber towel until any staining is removed.
The doors, panels, dashboard, seat belts, vents, and all various compartments are cleaned with degreasing soap, soft microfiber towels, boar’s hair brushes, and the Tornador pulse spray pneumatic cleaning gun as well as steam cleaning.
After this, we close up the vehicle and use an Ozone Generator Machine to additionally remove any odor-causing contaminants.
After letting the machine run for about 30-45 minutes, we open up the vehicle and let the vehicle air out.
After these steps are completed, then one detail technician will coat the fabric in Meguiar’s Carpet and Upholstery Foaming Shampoo to further clean each section and also replace any remaining odor stuck in the sections’ fabric.
After all the sections are cleaned, we use Meguiar’s Refresher which instead of removing odor, actually replaces any possibly remaining odors by attaching a better scent to the fabric at a molecular level.
We then proceed to add UV protectants and leather conditioner when applicable to the doors, panels, dashboard, vents, and all various compartments.
Then we clean the door jambs and interior windows to a streak-free shine.
A 20-minute quality control check is performed to double-check all of the above steps were done correctly and completely.
We then proceed to pack up all our supplies and materials and notify the client of service completion and encourage them to view their vehicle to ensure their satisfaction was met.
Payment is completed by way of a credit card in person or online.
