I feel like this transformation is a testament to the process you've developed over the years. I thought there was no way the Truck could look as good as it did by the end, but you followed the same steps you always do (perhaps with a bit more elbow grease than usual), and it came out looking great (considering the condition of the vehicle).

Yep we used one but I usually get whatever loose dirt is there and then use a foaming carpet cleaner and let it soak a little then run the orbital over it a few times before I vacuum it a second time. Makes a huge difference and really freshens up the carpet especially if there is discoloration from mud or salt.

I know that some detailers will pull the whole carpet out and pressure wash it, so I was thinking that would be faster with a carpet this dirty, especially there on the driver’s side. It probably takes longer to dry, though. Extraction can only get so much when the filth is penetrating the carpet to the floor underneath.

[@wonderstruck.]

As dirty as this truck is, it makes me glad to see it so muddy before cleaning. This was a real work truck, and the new owner also intends to use it that way. Way too many people buy F-150s just to look “cool” and “manly,” then use it on nothing but picking up groceries, parking badly and revving at traffic lights. It’s an expensive, powerful, gas-guzzling truck and should be used as such.

it looks to be a spare and considering you should be driving rarely with it i dont find it to be too much of a problem, couldve been laziness on the tech to not rotate the tire so the light spot of the tire and heavy spot of the wheel meet or vice versa, sometimes you cant put weights on the inside for various reasons and that makes the outer side heavier, sometimes wheels are just garbage, but i think this was a laziness factor to be honest

Also another question, watching you do the carpets for hours, til theyre almost new, and then going to steam the dash seems counter productive as the grime then flows, falls, and flies down onto the already cleaned carpets. Do you edit the videos in the exact order in which you perform the detailing? Just curious, as it seems I notice quite a few instances in your videos where gravity alone would predict the order in which you would want to perform your steps. Awesome videos!

I heard him answer this in another vid. He does the dash after because the tool he uses to clean the carpet sprays the debris around in the process. So he does the dash second to avoid having to do it twice

I always hate the people‘s reactions. I know people never know what to say besides thank you and it looks great. But it makes me insane how nobody ever shakes your hand or gives you a hug. I would go insane if that was my work truck and you just handed it to me Looking like that. Again. Unreal. Just incredible work. You got yourself a new sub off of this one!!!

Dang, this was a great one!!! Kinda sad we didn't get to see the driver's footwell extraction, I bet that was super gross! Keep up the miracle work!

[@jenniferbronson2509]

Me too! I was hoping to see him tackle the driver's footwell as well! But he's always awesome with the attention to detail!

[@mikemeyerphotopro]

Do you ever detail the engine bay? I'm sure a lot of people would love to see what it takes to make an engine shiny again :)

[@danielzhou920]

He's already done a video on that. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIaqfnelq5ibjsU and 3 others on his other channel.

It has been shown in several videos, one using steam, other with running water.

Incredible amount of work was needed to turn this truck around…and you delivered, as always. Even recharging the dude’s dead battery! 😊 Impeccable work ethic, Mitch.😊

[@donutlord105]

Is it me but when he is vacuuming and he misses this one spot and it just drives me crazy and at the last second he is like haha 😂 gotcha and vacuums it right up and a sudden flow of relief and calming comes over me and I know at that exact moment everything is right in the world

Same! Lol like I stare at it, then he goes back over it and gets the spot, and it's like, ok, we can resume. 🤣 it can't be perfect with a missed spot of dirt hanging out in the middle of the floor. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

[@heraclitus6100]

Amazing transformation. I was a bit surprised the owner wasn't more shocked at how good it looked. Also, I loved the guitar outro.

[@F.A.F.O.818]

The one piece of advice I would highly recommend is to watch out when using steam cleaner on door panel speaker covers. The steam could seriously damage the speaker cones, glue separates and creates an issue with speaker.

[@Daniel-xu6kd]

Legit good advice

[@daltex81]

You can always replace the speakers

@@daltex81 and you can always be stupid and ruin the speakers instead of taking 2 minutes to pop off the door panels. that was a seriously brain-dead response.

Awesome job, if it was my truck, I would definitely replace the cabin air filter and clean the A/C ducts out. I’m sure the heater core probably has caked on hair and dirt as well.

[@Dana-oe1ne]

It would probably be smart to do something about that underbody rust; get a new rust proof coating sprayed on it. Even just a few coats of rustoleum underbody spray would go a long way to helping preserve it

[@danadribnenki8774]

That’s an amazing transformation. Is there no issues though using steam to clean the door speaker covers and dash board instruments? Also what about that pickup area? Didn’t show any of it?

As long as you let them dry before using them its fine.

I loved seeing this truck go from ICK to SLICK! The last truck my husband owned was a Ford F150 and he loved it. I'm not sure the color of this truck because sometimes filming something distorts the color so I'm not sure if it is black or blue but it looks like my husband's truck which was a shade of blue called Midnight Blue. It looks like this truck is the same color but it's about 30 years newer than the F150 my husband owned. He loved the color and he loved the name of the color so much that when he got a CB radio and had to have a handle he called himself Midnight Blue. I joined him in talking on the CB and I used the handle Midnight Lady. This was in the days before cell phones and truck drivers talked on CB radios (usually Channel 19) to help themselves stay awake on long overnight hauls. We were not truckers but we had a ham radio in our family room and we enjoyed talking to truckers as they passed through Nashville and late at night we enjoyed talking skip to people from Ireland and Australia and really all over the world. My husband passed away almost 20 years ago but watching this particular detailing brought back a lot of really good memories, so thank you very much.

[@yiroypoli]

I would love to have seen the garage cleanup after this job!!

[@alecfierro1151]

amazing job! question is about how long for the seats and carpets to be dry after a deep cleaning like this, and have you ever had any issue with the steam used in the interior causing any damage to issue with the electronic components or moister staying in a/c vents. Thank you for all the great content.

[@vinnierap]

I was wondering the same thing!

[@lukegonzales6807]

I'm not an expert but I would assume steam evaporates much quicker than if you just sprayed water on it. Also with electrical components you don't really harm anything as long as there's no electricity running through them, also a lot of the "live", unprotected areas of wires are normally pretty hidden away.

[@Dwilsonmusic145]

I've always wondered how much extra weight in dirt a car like this carries around my guess is there has to be at least 30-40 pounds of just dirt on the car alone.

[@retgastothefloor8284]

especially when its caked all to the underside and running boards. mud and bullet shells, someone had a good time in that truck

[@ImThe5thKing]

As a tire guy, I can only imagine how out of balance the wheels and tires are with that much mud underneath. Even 8 ounces of mud in the wheels is enough to shake your fillings out

[@jimw6991]

@@ImThe5thKing Where do you folks live making these comments? I live on a dirt road in Michigan, during spring thaw all the trucks being driven on back roads look just like this. I also work with subcontractors at construction sites, the drivers of the trucks many times don't own them. You can guess pretty quickly the interiors get really dirty, not at bad as this truck but dirty non the less. Bottom line is work trucks with leather or cloth interiors and carpeted floors won't look nice for long w/o a lot of effort. Better option is vinyl seats, floor, door trim so they clean up easily. Better yet the trucks with floor drains that can be hosed out.
