Hoarders Honda Civic Before and After Deep Cleaning

A filthy car can make you feel pretty crummy. It's hard to be proud of your car when it looks dirty and gross, but now what? You take it to a car wash and expect those guys to clean it up? Sorry pal, that is not the way to do it. Today I am taking on a nasty little job for a hoarder who needs her car looking new again. Using all of my special car detailing knowledge and some simple tools we are going to make this girl shine like new again.

9:13 scared the heck outta me lmao. I wasnt looking on the screen and that came out of nowhere. Something probably went wrong with the export there lol.

[@thepathogenicruler1399]

Oh my god you saw it too!? I thought I was goin crazy...

[@tashiaguado2027]

I saw it too! Scared my soul outta of my body!

[@GarrisonWallin]

Being a 14-year-old that started a car detailing business at 11. Your videos help me a lot, and the motivational things you say help me through the hard parts when I am detailing a car.

[@evanr9992]

Him and The Detail Geek as well. So good at what they do. Helped me a ton as well! Good luck, kid!

[@GarrisonWallin]

@@evanr9992 Yea same! Thank you!

[@rpc717]

I think you're spot on re: vacuuming. The simplest steps - removing the clutter and vacuuming - are probably 20% of the work but 80% of the results.

[@mazda_rt24-p]

mmm...I gotta disagree, vacuuming is a lot of work and takes the longest or my vacuum is just garbage

[@jazzwhitaker]

I love the vacuuming! It's my favorite part of the videos♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@knottssonasty3603]

I agree with the vacuuming. You can accomplish so much with just that alone. You can get all the small hard to reach places w the vacuum them come in behind w the quick detail and a clean towel and your good to go!

[@ishwannking926]

I definitely agree I myself a detailer I definitely would spend longer than 15-20 minutes in vacuuming. Makes more sense to get as much as possible, then extract the rest.

[@CharlottePrattWilson]

You sure don’t need to go to the gym after this workout!😉

[@15super1ford]

I have never timed my self but my vacuum videos are 10 minutes and that’s just for a section in a third row vehicle interiors definitely take longer

[@markintexas9258]

I would probably need to be wearing more than gloves with all that dna stuck to everything.

[@ganja4024]

You should make a video showing us how to clean our detailing tools! (Brushes, Microfiber towels, etc.)

[@larrydarling9718]

And Mr Darnell said "You can't polish a turd".. yet somehow, you've proven him wrong again haha 😄 Good job.

[@MrFriiy]

Would like to see a pre and post weight of your vacuum…. To see what or how much you vacuumed up..

[@apollosmoon8658]

You always work wonders with disasters. I'd drive from florida to Ohio in a heartbeat just to have my vehicle detailed by you

[@jeremiahallyn4603]

I just don't understand how some people can be so disgusting. I would never treat my car or home like this. Especially if I'm paying lots of money for it. Lots of nasty pigs out there. At least it offers you the ability to do what you do so well 💯✌

[@conneremrich4988]

I drive the same car. Paint from those generation Hondas is always terrible. Paint aside, fantastic job as always!

[@cloehood7024]

Hello from Australia, I just wanna let u know I absolutely love all your videos and let u know that you have given me super helpful tips for when I just clean out family cars and friends cars

[@scootytamra]

That poor civic! It doesn't deserve that treatment! I'm glad you shown it love and got it looking good again. Anthony Fisher from The rag company would have a heart attack if he saw the state of that civic, he's a Civic-man!😜

[@andrewguerra4953]

awesome work. the steering wheel is always a challenge. I did a mustang steering wheel and as I was cleaning it. the material was coming off with the dirt. that's how dirty it was. satisfying at the end tho. 😂😂😂

[@ScrappersDetailing]

Another great detail! And yes more space for activities! Yep!

[@sre3109]

The clear coat is the first thing to go on Hondas. My Honda had a recall on the paint it was repainted yet the clear coat didn’t even last after the recall. But I also live texas it’s the desert and heat here eats away on the paint on many cars.

[@Progamer-jr6qx]

I am just a hobby detailer but I prefer to Only vac most things out when I extract. Takes much more time when vacuuming but less more while extracting and the extractor juice is a bit more nasty🙈

[@stans5270]

It is called a HOARDER'S car because calling the previous owner a PIG, would be an insult to pigs.

[@canadianboy3535]

I’d do a quick vacuum of the carpets then go at it with a drill brush and vacuum again then extract

[@pikkagtr1942]

This would drive my OCD crazy I get mad when there's dust on my dash board and carry a little duster for that purpose also lint in the air vents...I have a smaller duster to reach the vents I don't think if you added all the things that I forgot was in ALL my cars over that last 20 yrs will add up to all this shit

[@leehenry1165]

I spend a lot of time vacuuming. I would rather pick up as much dry material first since adding any liquid makes more of a mess.

[@MrHubb1]

Awesome job 👏. It blows my mind that anyone could buy such a nice car and completely trash it.

[@swacfan2791]

That's literally a dumpster with a engine and windows 🤣

[@user-xt7zs7tn1c]

9:13 real nice touch

[@emilyjansen5542]

I hope you recycled all those bottles!!!😊

[@carjen121]

Wow, awesome Detail. Thank you for sharing💕👏🏼

[@neonraindrops]

9:13 wasn't expecting a jumpscare from one of your videos!

[@pilinks85]

That person is nasty. Imagine how thier home looks

[@riograul2043]

There's nothing as trusty as a Honda that has been taken care of

[@StaufferGarage]

I agree

[@Carwashwithme]

Very awesome dude ❤️ 👏🏻

[@XunknownBrazyX]

I really enjoyed this one till I got my ear drums blown out by that random noise at 9.13 lol. Then I enjoyed the video again.

[@scootytamra]

OMG???? The person thought it was going to be ok to trade the car looking like that?? Seriously? Yuck! I think they need their head examined!

[@LilDiabloRob]

When I used to work at dealerships and clean cars, I wonder how TF people do this? Don’t think because someone owns a Toyota is different than someone with a BMW or Benz. The worse ones are the higher end brands and trucks/large suvs. Most minivans and commercial vehicle aren’t as bad as you would think.

[@jotighe2]

great content. like your approach. agree with your view on 'fancier' equipment with detailers. for the enthusiast (like me) who details his car 2-3 times a month, I am detailing an already-clean car. I mean, really, how dirty is a car going to get by an owner who is OCD and loves his car, that was also cleaned like 10 days ago? steam and suction will just damage it over time when it never really gets that dirty. every other detail is pretty much a wipe down with a towel. especially when I am the only one who has been in the car since the last detail. however, this honda is not the case, OMG. looks like it was used by a couple of chimney sweepers who lived in their work clothes, and the car. a steam cleaner would have cleaned the steering wheel, center arm rest, and door arm rests better than your result, IMO. never sure as a viewer, though; things on screen do not always look the same as when you are actually there in the car. the seats were definitely impressive from here! you never mentioned a smell...

[@sfb706]

Why do these people hate garbage cans so much?!

[@bigpimpingbigbird]

What happened at 9:14? Lol

[@oloem268]

10 minute vacuuming is for those cleaning clean cars

[@renataotero6841]

I'm in love with your new extractor

[@CharlottePrattWilson]

How can anyone let their vehicle get to this point? My daughter did let hers get bad like this. I don’t understand it.

[@geraldanderson3205]

I agree vacuuming is the important step I spend sometimes an hour or longer especially with the ones that have crappy carpet in my opinion toyota is the worst followed by Nissan

[@StaufferGarage]

God I hate carpets like that! Wears you out!

[@dmedina6835]

Ppl are slobs - that’s why I love dogs and motorcycles lol stay epic

[@BeliebersSquad]

24:17 hot chocolate🤣🍫

[@zzzr4604]

With that many little tree air fresheners, I hope the car smelled slightly good 😬

[@jonathancruz207]

Still can't get over how disrespectful it was to drop the car off like that

[@tayw7537]

9:14 what just happened 😂

[@Kirra.M]

Poor Civic! It scrubbed up pretty well inside. At least it should now have a chance at a new home. I'm scared for the new car that the owner traded in for!

[@SoonerMikeD]

I definitely spend the extra time on vacuuming. Honestly I’m not sure I understand not doing it that way. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Sebastian-vr9nb]

I think it’s a personal preference on how long it takes to vacuum especially depending on how much dirt and debris is in the car. I don’t usually take long on vacuuming but I also try new things and vacuum at the end of the detail.

[@charlesseavers4118]

How can people live like this

[@ragnarok9098]

Hello darkness my old friend time to speak with me again 9:14

[@norcalsvt0354]

That's not hoarding. That's 1 nasty ass person 😆

[@JulioSarante]

I like it! Can you please tell me which vacuum are you using?

[@tjglenridge5842]

Love the videos. Especially THANK YOU for the helpful suggestions - have made my personal car details so much better AND much more efficient.

[@RickyB-jm9sy]

I used to know someone who kept their car like that, they also smoked and it was hilarious the day he caught his floorboard on fire.

[@ithacacomments4811]

When I purchase a used vehicle ....I say for the dealer to just vacuum it. I will do the cleaning. I can't stand the smell of "new car" spray!

[@aaliyahbeeby]

why don’t you HAVE to suck out the moisture from the carpet after detailing? is it because you don’t have to use water? if you use a microfiber towel, do you have to pat dry or can you wipe?

[@bp9749]

I have to be honest there's a part of me that wonders if these disaster details are staged. It's excellent content for the channel but it's hard for me to grasp how someone gets something this dirty for this long and is a "hoarder"...then suddenly they pay someone to have it cleaned. Hoarders don't usually snap out of it. I wanna believe these are real but having a hard time that there's this many disasters who suddenly want a detail.

[@Drax658]

It is impossible to properly vacuum the whole car in 15 minutes, especially if it this dirty. If someone is telling otherwise, then the carpet is still full of dirt.

[@robertdragoff6909]

Ok, so you’ve cleaned the inside What about the outside? Since it’s a trade in, did the dealership have a body shop fix the paint job?

[@The280zkid]

How do you dilute the bio break & flex ice? Do you add water to the mixture? It may be a dumb question but I just picked these up.

[@heatherbontempo7742]

If you don't remove dry dirt, then it becomes mud. Dry dirt doesn't leave staining, mud can..

[@markwagner4909]

A friend of mine lives out of his car and has done so for decades

[@amygarrett7886]

I keep seeing pop out while you are vacuuming. How much money do you normally find in a vehicle?

[@raymondmelgoza1981]

Do you disconnect the battery when detailing?... For the dome lights?

[@frangarcia8490]

Creo que se debería de utilizar una vaporeta para desinfectar el interior del vehículo.

[@bigvix3802]

What did you charge for a vehicle like this?

[@RK-ch4in]

I vacuum incessantly… pre extraction, and post JUST in case.

[@Water2Spicy]

I would love to see what the cabin air filters look like in these vehicles

[@marklaroussa5787]

I was wondering. It seems like this car has a lot of bottles cans etc. If it is offered in your area do you recycle them

[@nealrusso8071]

Hello

[@StaufferGarage]

Good morning!

[@Nodontbuymeportal]

Great detail. I noticed you still had the power on when cleaning the dashboard. You removed the seats, do need to disconnect the battery first, or is it not necessary? Thanks for a good video though.

[@cristianayala6229]

How did you get to clean the dealerships cars? When people trade them in???

[@evoxjordan6330]

Are we just gonna brush past that jump scare at 9:13?? Haha scared me not gonna lie

[@C3Gaming1]

3:32 work smarter, not harder. I like how you think.

[@jironmeister]

Dude get divorced, throw trash can into car, get the lowest value to give the less to ex.

[@Shelz650]

I have a similar Civic but in the SI model, and this makes me sick seeing it so dirty.

[@ultimateb1330]

you weren’t joking when you said the seat cleaning was satisfying! 😮

[@barbarafitts1775]

Love your as well as other detail videos. I have learned so much from all of you. I dont detail as a profession, just a friends car here and there once or twice a year. I did a Honda Odessy van and drained the battery having all the doors open. I have seen only once where a detailer said to disconnect the NEGATIVE side of the battery but have not seen this advice again.Do detailers regulary disconnect their batteries??? Thanks for any help.

[@solidsnake2259]

Must be nice to have a nice car to just trash and throw to the side. Nice job!

[@chrisbrown7655]

When I see cars like this. No way maintenance was kept up on them.

[@pkk6428]

My wife would kill me if I let the car get like that

[@lukiekeyzcarcare8304]

Literally insane the amount of garbage you pulled from this thing. holy smokes

[@DK-421]

I wonder if the dealership made their money back in what it cost for a detail like this. Great work as always!

[@mikeobenland4395]

Do you ever use steam when cleaning things like door panels?

[@danielnunez2714]

Idk if this has happened to anyone else. But it’s never really a complete detail. Lol. Every time I’m done I have re-vacuum because of dust or little particles after wiping down or bringing in the Mats or simply opening the door. My ocd won’t let me put the vacuum down haha

[@15super1ford]

And I wish that trunk carpet was the same as the rest of the interior

[@joe.olivet]

Good morning! Wow… just wow.

[@StaufferGarage]

Good morning!

[@nikkiz9773]

I would charge more to take all that garage out od the vehicle.

[@raphaelszok8561]

How many boogers does that steering wheel hold?

[@TheRameyBunch]

Does anybody else watch these kind of videos to help them fall asleep?? No, just me…. Lol 😂

[@jedidiahspencer3437]

You washed lots of farts out of that driver seat 😂

[@lutherrodgers8793]

That's me once I get started I won't stop to even eat ,

[@bigpimpingbigbird]

Magic mushroom chocolate?? Is that even legal?

[@StaufferGarage]

Not in the USA! Which made me wonder how they even got it here!

[@altinomartins4927]

How can people let their car get to this point

[@cropcircler]

I saw a couple of quarters. Score!

[@sniderb56]

Not hoarders, just pigs

[@Progamer-jr6qx]

9:15 small cutting mistake🙈
