Deep Cleaning a VW Golf 18 year old Disaster detail Dirty/Filthy Car

[@cohen.berridge4064]

I love that car, the shape and curves are just alluring, makes me wonder how the manufacturers designed it

[@kadinaator]

That's what I love about the mk4 - it's such an ageless classic design. Still looks good after 20 years.

Just so satisfying seeing a older car getting some treatment and looking alot alot better near new condition small things can change alot. I can say this car has just increased its value at least by £1000 just by cleaing it. Also that interior was the best thing as we could see how dirty it was speacilly from that dirty water.

Thanks Hassan 😀

I purchased a mk4 Golf TDI new in 2001, and 393K miles later in 2019, I sold it to make way for a lightly used mk7. I still sometimes wish I had kept the mk4, as I really liked it. It still looked and drove great, but some of the plastics and pieces were just starting to wear out. That, and I got a great price on the mk7. Great job on the detail - it looks like it's got a ton of years left in it.

Tip for your interior cleaning....try Blue Corral Dri-Clean spray cleaner in a blue can. It is the very best cleaner for any surface inside a car. Including seats, mats, dash, door panels etc. Smells fresh too. I have been using it for last 10 years. It leaves no shine, so parts are ready for 303 Aerospace shine product. Cheers!

for the interior plastic of the mk4, to remove that rubbery thingy you can use burning alcohol, is cheap and works a charm !

Just a question on older petrol engine bay cleaning when they don't have an engine cover and caked in oil dust debris from the roads iv used a steamer a brush very fast movements with small amounts of apc but still had a few vauxhalls and fords flash up a misfire due to moisture getting past the coil pack. Iv got a 22 year old golf with no engine cover and never had this Problem but my golf has good rubbers when u come across other cars the rubbers are perished. So how do u avoid this problem Iv even tried having the wet vacuum suck as I use and steam or liquid lather but hasn't worked all the time theres still a risk to it

[@everydaydetailing6449]

Its not easy to be honest, back in the 90's/2000's we often had to dry out dizzy caps and coil packs, the only other option, might to be use a compressed air line instead to remove the pre-soaked/scrubbed area 👍😀
