Since my sisters car was having some problems I had to loan her one of mine and go and pick hers up (what a joy driving back home :eek:, I felt like a real man). After I got it fixed I thought I would give it a "quick" detail (wash/vacuum) which turned into a pain, lol. I think this is the first time the cars been cleaned since she got it a couple years ago.

How I got the car.

And the only money I got for this detail.

I tried to get a pic of how dirty the car was as I was washing it, you can kind of see the line in the center of the picture. (the bottom half of the door was unwashed)

And clean.

The water drops on the car is b/c it rained the night before.

I know I missed some things (didn't get a chance to shampoo the carpets or seats, so yes there still stained) as I am no where near happy with the way it turned out, but she came early to get it so I had to do what I could. Cleaning the carpets took me a while as I had to vacuum, brush, repeat like 5 times, the VW carpet is so "hard" and short so to speak. Luckily I got her floor mats when she bought the car or else I think I would have just got new carpet, lol. The lint on the dash is from the cheap MF towels I was using. All together I think it turned out 100% better then it was. When I get a chance again (sister is a few hours away) I am going to shampoo the carpets/polish the car. Hopefully it stays half way clean so I don't have to redo my work next time, lol. I'm done!

okay.

You have "cleaning" issues

I will pm you my address so that we can talk. YOu seem as though you need a friend. I have beer you are welcome too and pretty much anything you may like to eat as well. Never mind my 4 cars when you get here. Unless of course you can't help yourself :naughty:

How can people live this way!? I have a brother that let's his cars get like this. He bought a car new in 99 and that he still owns . . . . it has NEVER been cleaned not even run thru the auto wash. It's gross.
Why buy a new car if you're never going to take care of it? Just go by a old POS to run into the ground.
