Hey everyone, welcome back to Chemical Guys. So today, we are on the final step
of my detail on the s2000. We are going do the interior. Now, the interior is very
small. It's only a two-seater, but I still wanted to show you great tips on how to
clean your interior. The inside of this car is a leather, there's plastic, so
there's all different areas that I want to show you how to clean and give you
the right tips. We get a lot of questions about interior cleaning so we want to
show you how to do it properly and some quick tips and tricks to use. I
already chose my products. I'm gonna use Total Interior. Total Interior is a great
product. Like it says, it's total interior. You can clean all of the surfaces. You
can clean your dash. You can clean plastics. It has no odor, well it has a light odor-
it's very minimal. In comparison to a product like Inner Clean, it has a
light pineapple scent. This is more closer to no odor, just a fresh clean scent.
I'm going use that because I want to add my own air freshener at the end.
I'm going to clean all the interior plastics, handles, all of that with Total
Interior and then I am going to clean the leather pieces. I want to clean the
leather steering wheel. It's black leather, but I am sure that it is pretty
dirty, so I'm gonna use Leather Cleaner and then I'm going to condition all of
the leather pieces with Leather Conditioner. Now, again, the whole
interior is black so I'm not sure how clean or how dirty the carpets are going
be so I'm going to vacuum first and then I have Lightning Fast here so that I can
clean up the floor mats and carpets if needed. I'm not sure, just like you guys,
we're looking at it for the first time. I actually pulled out the
seats because I want to make sure that we clean out all of the dust, debris, and
anything that may be living under the seats as well. You don't have to do that
during your interior detail, but we did that in this case. We will see if
we're going to use Lightning Fast, but I think on the floor mats themselves they
looked pretty dirty from when I saw them but we're gonna vacuum first and then do
that and then I have my accessories that I will be
using: the tan workhorse towels and the yellow. Why do I have two
different colors? Yellow we usually recommend to use on your interior
surfaces. Yellow is a great light color so you're going to be able to see all of
that dirt and stuff that's coming off. We recommend using tan for your leather
products. We do color coordinating because you don't want to cross
contaminate your towels. So, if you're using for example on your exterior if you're
using one for your wheels you don't want to use that same towel on your paint.
We did the same thing in the interior just to kind of see the differences and to
also make sure that I know which towel to use. We have our applicators for the
Leather Conditioner and our Nifty Brush for the carpet. We're gonna get
started. First we're gonna do the vacuuming and then we'll go on to the
next step and I'll make sure to walk you through it, so let's get started!
We finished vacuuming the inside of the car and now I wanted to do the floor
mats. Like I mentioned earlier, I wasn't sure how dirty they were until
after I stopped vacuuming and they are a little bit dirty. I want to clean them
up, but one tip about doing your interior is if you're gonna do the floor mats you
can use a product like Lightning Fast. It's not a huge foaming cleaner that's
going to soak in and make it more wet. It's going to stay on the surface so it'll
just be more damp after you're done, but I want to do the floor mats first so
that while I'm doing the rest of the interior this has time to dry and then
we can put them back in and I don't have to worry about waiting before stepping
on it. All you have to do is spray it on. Lightning Fast can be diluted to your
desired needs. I'm using it at full concentration and then I'm just using
the Nifty Brush to agitate.
Like I said, this product isn't like your
traditional foaming cleaners. We do have a foaming fabric clean for that if you
want a different type of cleaner, but I like the simplicity of Lightening Fast.
In this area where apparently the foot was the most, we can tell it's more
dirty than around.
After that all you want to do is wipe and blot dry with a towel.
Look at how dirty that is. So, it doesn't look dirty because of the dark interior,
but it's very dirty.
Just look at that is gross. That is so gross. So, as you can see even though it was a dark
carpet it looked dirty, but we weren't sure how dirty it would be and that just
shows you that it was pretty dirty. I will do the second carpet and we'll make
sure that the carpets are good. Now, we're going to get into the interior. I'm going to
use Total Interior with our, again, Yellow Workhorse Towel to clean up all the
plastics, handles, and everything on the inside, so let's get started on that.
So we finished using Total Interior.
Noe, Total Interior can be used on leather and vinyl as well but I know
that these areas have been touched a lot so I wanted to use deeper cleaning
with Leather Cleaner. I'm using Leather Cleaner to clean the steering
wheel, the brake, and over here by the shift knob. I want to be able to make
sure that I get a deep clean because those are the areas you're touching the
most. But, if you have Total Interior you can clean leather and vinyl. For deeper
cleaning, I would recommend using Leather Cleaner. So, you can use just a towel, you
can also use a brush to agitate, I'm just going to use a towel today. I like I said
this was garaged if you guys watched any of the other series.
This car was garaged a lot. It wasn't driven as much, so although there was a
lot of hand touching everywhere, it's not as dirty as like a daily driver would be.
So you can use a brush to agitate. I'm just going to spray Leather Cleaner onto
the towel and now I switch to my other towel and I'm gonna clean the area. Oh, it
is gross. You can almost immediately see how
fast all the stuff is coming off. Like I mentioned before, I took out the
seats to the car so it makes it really easy and that's why I'm so stuck in here
like this. You don't have to take out your seats for a good interior detail.
It does make it easier.
So as you can see, it's pretty dirty then I'm going
to flip to a clean side and just buff it off.
So now that we finished cleaning the interior, we want to now protect it. I'm using
Leather Conditioner to protect all the leather pieces. I'm going to do the
steering wheel, around this area. It is a convertible, so I want to make sure that
it has the UV protection from the Sun, so we're gonna do any leather piece with
Leather Conditioner and then buff it off so that we can take off any excess and
then after that we're gonna put the seats back in and then we'll do this
seats as well. Let's get started.
So, we finished cleaning the interior of the s2000 we did the dash, we did the doors, we
did the seats, we did the carpets... so we got everything back in and hopefully now
I can learn how to drive it. If you want to see any of the other videos in this
s2000 series, we did a full detail. We'll include the links below. Be sure to give
