Interior Car Detailing Starter Kit | My Essential Products

[@johnbrown3951]

Oh I wish something like this list was available when I started out. I would have been able to concentrate on what I needed off the bat. A very informative and comprehensive list.

[@AutoCareHQ]

Cheers John!

[@simonpj145]

Great video. A lot of the stuff you have isn’t necessary for those of us that keep our car nice and clean, but plenty of tips for when I’m replacing products so thanks as usual 😊

[@dirkdingle7926]

Screw fix Titan hoover for the win and it’s also a wet vac too,but the Henry hoover nozzles are brilliant cheap on eBay and easy to swap over

Interior cleaning is essential for my peace of mind. Every Wednesday my wife, as assisting headmaster on a highschool, is part of a carpool, driving the pupils to play padel. Oh dear! Well well, then I have to repeat my cleaning rituals. Week after week though the schoolyear.

[@Incredible-Auto-Detailing]

For glass cleaner I love to use Wurth Active Glass Cleaner. Really great stuff, leaves no streaks, foaming, cost effective and I use it on all glass, 3 cars a day and one can at £11 can last me months as you only need one spray per window ( maybe 2 on larger ) to clean and cover it. Would love for you to try it out and let me know what you think and I'm more than happy to send you some over for a review!

[@AutoCareHQ]

That sounds like a great option I’ll keep an eye out for it cheers!

[@GrahamReid34]

interior cleaning i go for Koch Chemie Pol Star its a fabric and leather cleaner which is dilutable.

[@jeancassel]

Those geist stuff are top notch. Love the cleaner and the restoration kits.

[@johnhopkins7614]

What a great video, so useful and to the point. Very informative for the serious DIY detailer. KZbin is full of information on how to clean and properly polish a vehicle but the interior is often neglected. I would like to have seen more information/images of the recommended products, but otherwise faultless.

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thank you for the feedback! :)

[@iandiplock3338]

Really like to see a better walk around of the first truck. Whats been done to it to make it more suitable for its role.

[@grahambell9831]

Good morning Heather, some great tips and advice in this video 👏. For hard plastics, those scrub pads......brilliant!

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thank you! Yeah the scrub pads are fab, couldn’t be without them now

[@grahambell9831]

@@AutoCareHQ Hi Heather 👋, 2 purchased very recently and they really do work and pull out the dirt on hard plastic trim. These with Greenstar ( diluted) works a treat for me. Have a good week ahead 🙂

[@richard73]

Very helpful video Heather 👍👍👍

[@AutoCareHQ]

Cheers Richard!

[@malcolmmacleod4565]

Another great Video, I personally like Koch Chemie pol star as an interior cleaner it’s a versatile product and has good cleaning power without being too harsh also like Gyeon interior detailer. For Glass cleaning my favourite product by far is Bilt Hamber Traceless Glass cleaner it’s a phenomenal product, I even use it on household glass.

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks Malcolm, I'm still yet to try Traceless, I think it'll be the next one I grab when I run out

[@RomanticTuna]

I second the scrub pads, got them on your recommendation from a previous video and they are brilliant.

[@simonmanning6609]

Amazing watch Heather ❤ Fantastic list for the interior and information. Keep up the wonderful work 💙💙💙

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks Simon!

[@MrMjohns]

Thanks Heather, another great video, think I will give those scrub pads a go, they look really useful

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching :) Well worth checking them out, I wouldn't be without them now

[@PhilDiasPJD]

Great video Heather. The shots cutting to showing you using the products were really good editing and brought the video alive. Might have to take a look at the Vax. Wanted something like that for ages as have cloth seats in my Mini!

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thank you! It'll definitely help with the cloth seats, it's grim seeing how much stuff comes out haha. If you have a bigger budget then it's also worth considering this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHPYiaR_oZdmiZIsi=EisYl24AIT0CMhYx

Haha exactly, not been great over the last few weeks

[@stephenjones6902]

We have a Hetty vacuum amazing.Great info Heather

[@matt-88]

Why not get a bagless one? They tend to be cheaper and far more powerful with no power loss due to the bag getting filled.

[@gesit24]

Thanks Heather - already had some Geist - 3 and just ordered the Geist +3 with your link and used your discount code too :) Plus you finally convinced me to grab those drill brushes! Every little helps as they say. Cheers Graham

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching! The drill brushes are very handy, definitely worth having

[@DarrenJMHughes]

You can’t beat a good all purpose cleaner and some microfibre cloths. A nice video Heather of the basics to get into the hobby of car cleaning without busting the budget , very thoughtful by offering alternatives. I want something for cleaning a 2.5 year old leather VW Golf steering wheel as it is starting to go shiny. Currently using AG leather cleaner. Can you recommend; maybe a little video?

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching :) I'd use either a leather brush or scrub pad but just be pretty gentle to avoid wearing the coating down, paired with a good leather cleaner it should definitely get rid of that shine. I'll try and find a shiny steering wheel for a video!

[@_stoatchaser]

I love my Screwfix vacuum. I think I'm paid 30quid for it and it's possibly the most powerful device I have ever bought. The bonus with it, with no smut intended, is that it blows as well as sucks which is awesome blasting out hard to reach places like under seats and air vents.,useful for drying to

[@Incredible-Auto-Detailing]

Another showstopper video Heather thank you! Great videos and easy to follow 🔥

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks Adrian! Looking forward to watching your video!

[@paulsj3273]

Love the pet hair brush tip. Could you do some advice on Alcantara interiors please?

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching :) I just use interior cleaner (usually the GT one) on alcantara with a microfibre cloth but if it needs some extra attention then I use the scrub pad fairly gently to fluff the fibres back up a bit

[@simonbradshaw3708]

I try and keep my interior cars fairly clean, so use Gyeon Interior Detailer and their soft wipe cloth which is edgeless. I have a piano black interior in one of my cars. For glass cleaning I use a waffle weave towel and Gyeon Glass and Prep. I used jute shopping bags and the fibre get stuck in the boot carpet, so any advice on a suitable product to remove would be great. Vacuum is a slow process as they weave into the other fibres.

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching, Gyeon Interior Detailer is a really good product. Have you tried one of those pet hair removal tools? I'd imagine it would work fairly similarly on those fibres

[@mystikmeg]

[@Tadztoo]

Thanks Heather. Any tips on how to deal with mild scratches on dashboard vinyl. A previous owner has either thrown a bag or a dog lead or such on the dash and left a few scratches. Just don't know how to get rid of them.

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching :) You could definitely try hand polishing them, a machine would be helpful but not essential to try and get some improvement. Try a mild polish first on a foam pad and be fairly gentle and it should take them down a bit

[@Neil1867-d6f]

another great video thanks Heather. This questions a bit off topic but I’m having some new alloy wheels fitted this week and just wondered if you can recommend a product I can use to protect them from brake dust and general dirt and make them easier to keep clean? Thanks in advance

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching! The best thing you can do is ceramic coat them. I used Garage Therapy Hades on mine. It’s the best time to do it if they’re new as they won’t need any decon/ polishing, just a wipe with the panel wipe solution to remove any oils. Ideally if you do it before they’re fitted then you can do the barrels as well, but if not then just doing the faces when they’re on the car will still definitely be worth doing

[@Neil1867-d6f]

@@AutoCareHQ Thanks Heather, I'll grab some of that to use then. The wheels are being fitted by someone else as I'm having some styling work done at the same time so I won't be able to get to the barrels, but I'll do as much as i can reach. thanks again

[@AutoCareHQ]

Here's a video btw showing the coating application if you need any tips: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3LRo62Nra-mnbc

[@Neil1867-d6f]

@@AutoCareHQ That's great, thanks for that. Just looking on in2detailing website would you go 30ml or 50ml kit - new wheels are 20". Also have you got an affiliate link for the product, would rather you get some commission if possible?

[@AutoCareHQ]

No problem :) I think 30ml should be fine, I only used about half I think on mine and they were a pretty tricky design. If you use the discount code "ACHQ" then it should trigger the affiliate commission but no pressure at all!

Off topic question Heather but how was the summer weather? We are coming into spring here in Australia and so far it's 30 to 40km/h wind and rain. Plus it's bug season soon and we have some crazy bugs here. 🐛🐝🐞

It wasn't great here to be honest. A few warmer spells but a lot of rain too
