- Hey, what's up guys,
welcome back to the Chemical Guys Detail Garage.
Today we have the Hummer H1 back into the shop,
that is correct.
It just pulled right in and the owner decided he wanted
to redo the interior headliner.
So Joey already cleaned up the interior,
but unfortunately after it came back from the shop,
people touched it, there's footprints everywhere,
there's dirt, grime, debris.
So in this video, I will get more into detail
on how to properly clean the entire interior
and then we'll protect it,
and nonetheless, we have to clean and condition the leather.
Let's get to it.
To begin the process on the interior of this Hummer H1,
we had to start cleaning it,
but before we started with the cleaner,
which is Total Interior Cleaner,
we started off dusting off any
of the intricate details using
the all in the details interior brushes.
The nylon bristles are super soft, super plush.
I did not saturate the bristle when I came
to just rub it around the grime,
because I just want to knock it off
either onto the floor or onto the vinyl of this Hummer.
Then after that I grabbed the Blue Work Horse
Microfiber Towel with my Total Interior.
So all you need to do is either spray it
onto a microfiber towel, like I did,
or you can spray it onto the dashboard directly.
I personally like spraying it directly
onto a microfiber towel because I was work with buttons,
I was working with gauges,
I was working with sensitive plastic
and I did not want to scratch it.
So I sprayed onto my microfiber towel
so I won't get any runoff or any over-spray.
So spray it on there,
then you go to the surface, you wipe it down.
So Total Interior Cleaner,
I love it because it is a protectant and a cleaner.
So you like an OEM shine,
You don't want nothing too fancy, nothing too glossy,
just use Total Interior Cleaner by itself.
So after I finished cleaning up the interior,
which is the buttons, the plastic, the vinyl,
the rubber of this Hummer H1.
I had to protect it because the owner loves keeping it out
in the sun and we do not want the dashboard to be cracked,
so I went to VRP for help.
So VRP is a water-based dressing
that can protect vinyl, rubber, and plastic.
So if you're a guy that wants one product
that does it all to protect your vinyl,
rubber and plastic, VRP will be the way to go.
VRP is a medium to high shine,
if I had to put it from one being the least shine
to 10 being the highest shine,
I would put VRP at a high eight, that is correct.
A water-based dressing will still deliver
a high amount of shine with just a single application.
But before I move on to the next process,
I forgot to mention,
I also use Total Interior cleaner to clean
up the alcantara that is in the front passenger seat
and the front driver's seat.
Total interior cleaner does not need to be sprayed directly
onto our alcantara, especially 'cause it's very sensitive.
Spray onto a microfiber towel
and just massage it in one direction.
Do not over-saturate, do not.
But like I was saying, VRP is a water-based stressing,
so as soon as I applied VRP onto the vinyl,
it started drying up.
So if you're using an interior dressing,
we recommend going with water-based dressing
because you did not want an oil based dressing.
One, it is too glossy and two, it is too slippery.
Then you're going to be sliding
around like a little salamander.
You need to be in place
whenever you're driving or riding passenger,
so VRP is a perfect way to go.
And then after that, we moved on to leather.
So leather cleaner is going to
and remove body oil, stains, debris, grime
that is sitting on a leather
that may be deceiving the look of the leather.
Unfortunately, I did see there's a lot
of fingerprints after it came back from the shop
but I need to make sure I remove it easily
safely as possible before I conditioned it.
Because if I do not clean it properly,
the conditioner will not bond properly to the surface.
So how did I apply it?
I sprayed it onto a long haired leather brush,
which is very soft.
You just rub it on there
and also sprayed it directly onto a surface.
So after I sprayed on directly onto the surface,
I agitated using the brush
and I brought out all the grime
that was sitting on the fabric.
If you are working with perforated leather
do not spray directly onto the perforated leather,
spray just directly onto the brush,
then scrub it out.
After it is completely clean,
you grab a brown microfiber towel
or any microfiber towel you want to color coordinate,
as you guys saw in this video
I had VRP applied with a blue microfiber applicator,
while I applied Leather Conditioner
with a brown microfiber applicator.
You always need to stay color coordinator,
so you do not cross-contaminate.
You do not want to be applying your Leather Conditioner
with an applicator that VRP was just used with,
you want to keep everything color-coordinated.
Like I cleaned all the insert with a blue microfiber towel,
and when it came to clean up leather,
I used my brown microfiber towel.
But Leather Conditioner is a water-based dressing
that contains vitamin D,
that is not going to let your leather crack, fail
or turn hard over time.
So I applied it using my Brown microfiber applicator,
just rub it on.
I applied two lines onto it,
then I brush it out over the area,
then I rubbed it in, any residue left behind
I just buffed it off.
As soon as it is applied, you can sit on it,
you won't be sliding around.
And then before you guys start commenting down below,
you guys knocked grime, dirt onto the floor.
Don't worry, I clean up the floorboards
using Total Interior Cleaner, that is correct.
The floor is vinyl, I sprayed Total Interior.
I saved my life from having 10 different products,
spread on there, wipe it off in one direction.
And for the carpet, I grabbed the shot vacuum,
vacuumed it out.
And now the interior is in perfect condition
and the owner can take delivery.
So guys, if you guys liked this video
don't forget to give it a big thumbs up,
comment down below on future videos you should do.
And we'll see you guys next time right here
at the Chemical Guys Detail Garage.
Now, time to put these products away,
I'll put those away.
