    Wow, great job! Thanks for the video and I appreciate your headliner caution. I’ve seen some big RUclips detailer videos that made me cringe thinking about what the vehicle owner was going to have to deal with a year or so later. Maybe it’s because I’m old and have had to deal with sagging headliners before, but even being careful with the interior trim pieces goes a long way. Too many spray and pray guys out there now.

    Great video and info. A long time ago I had bought a used Mazda Protege and got it cheap because it reeked of cigarette smoke, as hard as I tried could never get rid of that smell, I drove it around with a can of deodorizer to constantly spray while driving.

    • @MirandaDetailing

    I use the vx5000 and did an f150 the same level of buildup. Using the small triangle brush head it comes with I was actually able to just spray with degreaser, wrap a towel around the head and steam it. Handful of passes and it was clean. Very quick if you have all the heads.

      Yea it'll be much easier to use that head than the single hole one like you had to. Basically like steaming and scrubbing at the same time so probably more than twice as fast.

    Do you know if I can clean the interior roof of a car with a mytee8070 machine?
    a friend says it can be bad for the headliner ceiling
    Gracias!

    • @MirandaDetailing
      @MirandaDetailing  3 года назад +1

      Hi. That would not be a good idea. Over saturating the headliner like that will dissolve the glue over time and cause the headliner to sag. Just spot hit the headliner with cleaners.

    • @MirandaDetailing
      @MirandaDetailing  5 лет назад +1

      I have used enzyme solutions before but they don’t work. Smoke odor is way to difficult to remove with just a surface product. It needs a thermal digger to penetrate into the fabric and foam and into the vents

      Yes. We used our usual stoners glass cleaner. But we also use a damp towel to mop up the majority of residue. That gets about 90% of the smoker film off. Then clean it without our usual stoners glass cleaner.

    Do you do anything for the headliner or use a ozone machine ? I don’t like doing smoke odor interior because I heard it’s considered 3rd hand smoke and can be harmful to breath in :( is it bad to refuse the job?
    I tell them that odor won’t get 100% removed because of headliner may need to replace also lt just takes double the time and materials to complete can’t guarantee complete odor removal and that it won’t return ? Would need to Charge a lot and hope they book elsewhere or politely refuse hope they don’t leave me a bad review
    I would also have to throw my towels away after job like this

    • @MirandaDetailing
      @MirandaDetailing  Год назад +2

      So for smoke odor we do not attempt to remove that. we tried in the past and smoke is extremely difficult to remove. we always refer customers to a local place that does interior repairs and they deal with it. It's not worth it for us to even attempt odor removals of any sort.
