- Hey, what's up, guys?
Welcome back to Chemical Guys Detail Garage.
Today, I have this Toyota Corolla in the shop
and I'm gonna be showing you guys
how to properly clean out from carpets to fabric seats,
but in different methods
and by that, I mean you could go and use a Nifty Brush,
the Nifty Brush tied around with a microfiber method
and even the drill attachment brush.
For our first method, we're actually gonna go ahead
and just us the Nifty Brush by itself.
So I'll go ahead and give you guys a hard cut line
with my tape.
I'll go ahead and tape up this area right here
and excuse me if I go ahead and make a lot of squares.
Don't worry, guys.
I'll take care of it after.
So I'll go ahead and make this little half a square.
And I'll be cleaning up this area right here.
So product I'll be using today is Lightning Fast.
Lightning Fast is a stain extractor
that cleans up in lightning like
like lightning.
By that, I mean just simply spray it on,
scrub it out and you're good to go.
So, give it a couple sprays
onto the area you're working on
and then I'll go ahead and let it,
15 to 20 seconds, let it agitate the dirt
so it can help it lift off properly.
Then I'll go ahead and get my Nifty Brush,
spray some onto the brush,
put my bottle right there
and all you want to do is just simply scrub it
back and forth, side to side.
What this ensures, it ensures you lift off
all the dirt, grime, debris, oil,
whatever it might be in your vehicle
and reveal the shine the fiber once had.
Can fabric even have shine?
I think so.
So just by simply massaging it, this foams up.
You might be able to see the foam on camera
but it actually does foam up.
Simply massage it back and forth.
The Nifty Brush has nylon bristles
that are not too abrasive on fabric
that will not tear it up.
So, I'll go ahead and get my microfiber towel
and wipe it off.
So that's the Nifty Brush by itself.
It went ahead and removed grime, debris
from the fabric of the seat.
Now let me show you guys the before and after.
And you can see a crazy before and after right here.
Before and after.
That's just by using just the Nifty Brush.
Method number two, this method is going to go ahead
and take a microfiber towel.
You could use any towel, microfiber towel,
I like using the Workhorse Microfiber Towel.
The pylon towel is not too plush.
It's actually going to go ahead and help me
lift up all the dirt, grime or debris
that's on the surface easy and safely as possible.
You'll get the Nifty Brush, slap it in the middle.
The microfiber towel is actually gonna go ahead and ensure
you properly clean it out
without damaging the surface of the vehicle.
Especially on this Toyota Corolla,
it has these little fibers design
that I do not actually want to lose
because on a older vehicle,
whenever you scrub on these fibers,
you tend to lose the texture of them
which you do not really want.
So, I'll go ahead and get Lightning Fast,
give it the same amount of sprays,
spray it onto my microfiber towel
and same exact thing, just massage it side to side.
Look at this, guys.
Excuse it if I lose the tape line,
but bear with me, guys.
And this can be done anywhere.
In your garage, outside, in direct sunlight,
off sunlight, it does not matter.
But what people don't understand
You know what, I'm just gonna get rid of this.
What people don't understand is
you get used to seeing your fiber dirty
so you might not say, "My fiber is not dirty"
or "My carpet is not dirty."
But whenever you actually clean it up,
you start seeing the big before and after
and that's how your carpet once was.
But just by simply scrubbing it out,
you see the grime come out.
So, move my brush to a different side.
Spray a little bit more onto my brush
and just massage it out.
Lightning Fast can also be used at home
like your carpets, your couches,
just quick touch ups.
So, just like that.
Put my brush down, flip over to a clean microfiber towel
and just wipe off any residue.
And wow, that is a big before and after.
It went from being super dirty to super clean.
But, if you guys actually noticed,
the microfiber towel method
actually delivered much of a deeper clean
than just the Nifty Brush method.
Whenever you have a very light, light stain,
I recommend just using the Nifty Brush method
but if you have something that's a little bit more severe
on the dirtier side,
wrap it up, use a microfiber method
to go ahead and deep clean.
So now, it's time to go ahead and use the drill
and the drill brush attachment.
We actually do manufacture
three different types of brushes.
We manufacture the red one, the yellow one and the gray one.
The red one is super super heavy duty
and the bristles are very very tough.
I recommend using that on harsher areas
for deeper clean.
Then we have the yellow one
which is my favorite, is the medium.
There's nothing too light, nothing too heavy.
I like using this on my carpet
and I also use them on fabric.
But whenever it's a little small stain
just like I went ahead and demonstrated you guys,
I like using my Nifty Brush
because it's way easier to work with
instead of me actually using it all the way down here,
bumping into the area
and I can't actually get into the grooves with this.
And then we also manufacture the gray one.
They gray one is super super soft
and I recommend using that one
either on your vinyl or your leather.
Don't go ahead and attach too much pressure
when using these brushes.
Just let the brush do its job.
But before I actually go ahead and clean the surface,
I actually notice that there is some shoes on here
and I'm actually gonna show you guys that
Lightning Fast can be used on shoes.
So, I'll go ahead and put the shoe right there,
I'll get my tape
and I'll give you guys a hard 50/50.
A lot of people tend to forget to clean up their shoes
but whenever you're actually detailing a car,
I don't know about you guys,
but I tend to step in puddles a lot
whenever I'm actually using a foam cannon
so foam gets onto my shoes, then I start walking around
and then it's all dirty.
So, it's time to go ahead and clean up the shoe
and I'm only gonna take it the very very easy method.
By that, I'm not gonna go ahead and get any brushes.
I'm just gonna get a simple microfiber towel
to clean it up.
I'll get my Lightning Fast
(plastic squeaking)
and spray some on here.
I'll put that down and about so much
is all I'm gonna need.
I'll get my shoe,
and whenever you are cleaning shoes,
I recommend using microfiber towel,
stuff the shoe so you actually don't bend it
if you actually care about your shoes.
But these are just running shoes.
Don't tell Tony.
I didn't put any microfiber towels in his shoe.
So, scrub it out and let me scrub out the swoosh.
And this is just like ten seconds
of just rubbing it back and forth.
After you're done, flip it over to clean side,
buff it off
and now, you'll have a clean car and a clean shoe
at the same exact time.
Look at that, guys.
Quick before and after
and that just took less than ten seconds.
Just simply rub it back and forth,
do not use any heavy abrasive brushes on your shoe
because you might scratch out the sole or the swoosh.
So, now it's time to get back into this video.
I'll take care of the shoes later,
so let me just toss this out.
Don't tell him I'm tossing this out.
I trust you guys.
Toss that out and now it's time to go ahead
and use the drill method.
I put my drill down here
and I'll get my tape line going.
And now it's time to go ahead and clean it out
using the drill attachment,
same exact thing as the polisher method
whenever you're working on carpet.
With a drill, always put the cord over your shoulder
to reduce the chance of you scratching up any plastics.
So I'll go ahead and get my Lightning Fast
and we spray it onto the surface.
Give it couple sprays.
Then I'll go ahead and allow Lightning Fast
to penetrate the dirt, grime, whatever's on here
and lift off properly.
Then, you'll go ahead and get your drill attachment brush,
spray some on here.
Just be generous with it.
You'll go to your area you're working on
and you're just gonna work it back and forth,
side to side, up and down until
you clean up the whole surface.
(upbeat music)
So there you guys go and you guys see
how easy and effectively it was
to go ahead and use the drill.
If you do apply too much pressure,
you might feel like your drill's controlling you
like pushing you back and forth.
If that's the occasion, you're applying too much pressure.
Let off the pressure, just let the brush do its job.
Now go ahead and get a clean microfiber towel,
wipe off any residue.
You guys can see the grime that's coming off.
Massage it back and forth.
Make sure everything's out.
Put this right here.
Let me go ahead,
show you guys the before and after.
So like I said, a lot of you guys might forget
how your carpet once looked
and by that, I mean, whenever the pile doesn't even pop up
something like so,
that means its very dirty because all that grime
is pushing down onto the fibers
which makes it look not furry at all.
This is how the fibers once looked
whenever it came out of dealership.
We showed you three different methods
how to properly clean up your fabric
by using the Nifty Brush by itself,
the microfiber method and the drill attachment.
