Deep Interior Detail Clean with Joe Huntley
When it comes to the upkeep of the inside of your car, how often do you really give it a proper interior detail? For many car care enthusiasts, cleaning their interior is usually slightly down the pecking order when compared to exterior maintenance, perhaps because what lies beneath is somewhat hidden behind closed doors unlike the outer bodywork for all to see! Also, because you are generally ‘in and out’ of a car so frequently, you can often forget just how dusty and dirty interior surfaces can become.
In fact, in the case of items like leather or vinyl seats, door cards, steering wheels and gear knobs, what you think is in an ‘ok’ state can actually turn out to be quite shockingly grubby.
This is certainly more of an issue on cars that are older, point in case a classic Triumph which was the recent focus of Joe Huntley’s latest detailing video. Engrained dirt and grime had set up camp in this classic interior and such was the transformation once Joe started to work his skills, it ended up producing some of the best 50/50 shots we’ve seen in a long time!
So how did Joe do it? Well, all is revealed in this very special interior detail video, the full process shown in its entirety below.
