What's going on Chemical Guys family thanks so much for tuning in for today's episode of Detail
Garage. A common question that we get here is how to clean the interior of our vehicle without having to
break out all kinds of brushes and all kinds of chemicals, having multiple towels, and we
brought this mercedes-benz in the shop because just like a lot of our vehicles
when you're driving around with your windows down or the top down or just
driving in general you're going to get a lot of dust or you know loose debris or maybe
spills that happen all over the interior of your vehicle so today we have a simple
tip on how to remove all this stuff using one product that's going to clean it and protect it
Now this mercedes-benz is the epitome of luxury where you have multiple surfaces that are made
of the finest materials. You have leather, you have wood grain dash panels, you have very high quality
plastics, so we want something that's going to not only clean it but protect it, but while doing it
safely without any kind of sheen or shine or maybe drying it out or discoloring it. So I've chosen to
use Total Interior. This is again going to clean virtually every interior
surface including your dash, your door panels, your glass, your navigation screens, even use it
on fabric material and to control some overspray. We're going to be using one of our tan Workhorse
Microfiber Towels and this is great for your interior cleaning jobs just to remove any kind
of spills, whether you're working with cleaners, conditioners and protectants and dressings.
We're going to spray it directly onto the towel and I like to work from the top and work our
way down, this way in case we're dropping any kind of dust or heavy debris this will
fall on the carpet which will be our last step of detailing where we're going to just vacuum it, or
you know, it'll keep it from areas we've already cleaned.
But you can see you can just spray directly onto the surface or onto a towel,
that'll control the over spray and then buff off any of the excess, but it dries and leaves a nice
crisp sheen. It's also going to be dry to the touch, so it's not collecting any kind of debris, it's not
going to be tracking out a lot of dust but it's also not adding a kind of glare which is important
on your dash. I know a lot of people like to add gloss or some kind of dressing to their
interior but on the dash I always recommend using something that's not going to add any kind of
sheen or glare, because as it reflects off of the glass it could cause some kind of dangerous situation.
Now working around the vehicle here you can also use it on basically any interior surface,
including your wood grain dash panel, which is very sensitive to not only cleaners but
also to towels. So you want to make sure you take your time and carefully wipe these areas
because they can scratch very easily, and the only way to fix this would be to polish it, and
it's very difficult to do while it's still in the vehicle so taking the time and using the
right products will prevent any kind of future damage, any kind of costly repairs down the road.
But this will pick up anything that's landing on the surface that could be
light dust, or maybe you spilled something such as the center console here, and it's going to layer it
with a fine protective coating. This will prevent any kind of UV rays from damaging the surface
especially when the car sits outside a lot such as this one does, and you don't have tinted windows.
Those harmful UV rays come through the glass and it starts to dry it out and discolor it over time,
so using something like this will help not only clean it but it's also going to protect it in one
easy step. Now you can use this around electronics such as your radio your touch screens your
navigation screens and gauge clusters. This will wipe off any of the body oils or fingerprints or
depending on who owns the vehicle, such as this vehicle that belongs to a good friend of the
detail garage but she drives this vehicle every day occasionally she'll get makeup or sunscreen,
or you know, spills on the surfaces, and if it's not taken care of quickly that will start to
permanently stain, it so it's important to have a bottle of this on hand or you can even leave
it in the car for just an occasion to wipe off anything that could potentially permanently damage
the surfaces around your vehicle. But again you can use this virtually on everything whether it's your
leather steering wheel cover or your leather steering wheel in general
your dash pads center console and this is going to just gently remove the layer of dust
debris spills body oils while reviving that factory finish but most importantly it's going
to be adding a layer of protection which is going to prevent any kind of future damage
again it's great to have something that's doing multiple jobs using one product you don't have to
have multiple cleaners or use multiple towels or brushes and different kinds of products
it simply cleans away messes without any kind of additional sheen and what i like about it is
it not only smells great but it doesn't add any kind of cling or any kind of sticky residue this
is a problem with a lot of products that you use on the interior where it could potentially stain
certain surfaces or it doesn't work for all facets of the interior so basically you're looking for
a product that does it all total interior is the way to go and it's as simple as that guys it's a
simple spray and wipe and this is going to remove any kind of grease body oils staining any kind of
spills as well as the light dirt and debris that you collect in your vehicle as you daily drive
and it also adds a layer of protection to kind of future damage so if you guys like today's
