What an INSANE transformation! What better way to kick off your weekend than with a NASTY disaster detail?!
Leave a big THUMBS UP on the video and I’ll see you guys next week for another “fun” one! 😄
You always find interesting ways to entertain us. I am continually impressed by how much work goes into these videos. The shots, the camera angles, the editing, the voiceover. All very well done. Thanks for being not just a professional detailer with skills and talent, but also producing these videos week after week. I can only imagine how much effort goes into this work. Go Mitch!!!
The Geek should hv said,Sit Back. Relax.Enjoy the Trashformation!😂🤣
Hey quick question, I've been watching your videos for years now, when I first started watching, i remeber thr g5 and you did use an air purifier to remove those disgusting odors, I don't see you used one in this car?
You are so right! I wish there was some one I could use here in IL to clean like Mitch does.
*Channel Short Cuts/Cutbacks*
No Vacuum car Mats skip 2 pw
No UnderCarriage
No Ozone Machine
No 😂🤣.@@jonathanquenneville6449
I'm a chain smoker... it would take you 20 minutes to detail my 14 year old car. That man has more issues than chain smoking.
Those masks.... clearly concerned with his health.
@@Gruuvin1 Leftovers from the pandemic. That car clearly hadn't been cleaned in a decade...
@@Gruuvin1 Probably been there since covid and he was too lazy to get rid of them.
Looks like meth on the back seat
Hey buddy I think you should quit smoking it's not good for you. Try distracting yourself from smoking
The pine air fresher is hilarious.
It tried its best
What about the axe? 😂
Yeah more like a glimmer of hope😝
Even a hundred wouldn't make a difference🤣
except for the squigly bullshit on it
I was a detailer at a Lexus dealer back in 2003-2004. We had this old guy bring his car in for service and he smoked with the windows up. You could see a light brown/yellowish film on his windows. We sprayed our foam glass cleaner on it, you can kinda judge how dirty the window is by how fast the foam turns into a liquid. It immediately turned into a liquid with that same brownish tint to it. We had a hell of time cleaning them but it was worth it, the guy was so happy that we took the time to do the extra work for him that he ordered us 2 pizzas for lunch, had them delivered and paid the tip and everything. He was a nice old man and for being like 75-80 years old and smoking like 2 packs at least a day he seemed in good health
Man, I wish you were in the States. I've never had anyone take my seats out and steam clean doors, panels, etc. Bravo, sir. You really did an excellent job with this!
A good detailer will always do that!
Any good detailer can do that for you. I'm sure there's one in your area, they are pretty much everywhere. If you want it done right, it will not be cheap though

@AndrewDRoyappa thku, and yeah, I wouldn't expect it to be 🙃👍🏾😊
I'm also from the States, if your detail or doesn't do that you need a new detailer
My dad was an automobile mechanic. He always said, "If you want to know how a person's house looks inside, look inside their car." Great job as always! 😊
Cool dad you have😮😮😮
Exactly! My mom cleans homes as a side business and I can confirm the two correlate😮.
I hate to say it, but the car is always worse than the house.
My car used to be way better than my house. Now the both are somewhere between mediocre and clean.
Truth
Only took you 9 hours to make it immaculate? I could've spent 3 days & still not accomplished what you did. You're the best
He's a professional so he's used to it
Just a quick suggestion, for jobs like this, it'd be a great idea to get a pair of law-enforcement style anti stab gloves. They're thinner than work gloves so you maintain a good degree of dexterity, but prevent penetration of sharp objects like needles or knives. These are the gloves police officers typically wear when searching a suspects pockets and such. You could wear your nitrile gloves underneath them. As I'm sure you've thought of yourself, there's just no telling what you're gonna find under a pile of crap like that, and it would open up a real can of worms if you happen to get stuck by some dirty needle lying around in a car. Keep up the good work!
he sure knows what's in that pile of crap as he's the one put that there
You could also just wear mechanics gloves.
@@astikpal2655he didn’t put it there goofy. It’s a customers car
If someone's car look's like this just imagine what their home looks like.
the fact you still showed love to the bald headed tires 😂, shows how serious you take your craft 🫡
He knows that the tires are bad but loves the hubcaps is unbelievable
some people actually pay to get racing slicks like that
@@JMNTN thoughs are no slicks, but your correct
Man it's car's like this that makes you appreciate the work you do. When you can step back and look at it and be proud of yourself that makes it all worthwhile.
Dude the work you are doing is absolutely amazing and means the world to the owner of the car. This entire video is honestly very impressive and shows your dedication.
What a pile of crap that was. Amazing to me how people let their cars get that nasty. It's like the car finally got take a breath of fresh air again. Another phenomenal job, Mitch! You're the man!
Not everybody deserves to have a car
Yes! Especially when you go to the gas station there is a trash can RIGHT THERE!
nah. its just some semi lonely dude smoking pot and cruising and working ( delivering pizza maybe ). no time, no effort for cleaning. no culture as well. once on a blue moon they clean the whole thing for money and its good as new. why the hussle?
Unfortunately, It's a Kia Rio so it's still a pile of crap. Now it's just a clean pile of crap.
@@ZsH85 no…it’s a disgusting THING driving the car. And God save ANYONE who might have consumed a pizza delivered in that rolling bacteria lab…
it's the shining bald tires for me🥰
Only spotted that after reading your post. The front are completely bald. 😮
@@alanwhite7912 Rears seemed fine, dude probably never rotated them.
Average Kia driver
Repent and trust in Jesus. He's the only way to Heaven. We've all sinned and deserve Hell. Sins like lying, lusting, etc. Repent and trust only in Jesus, and you will be saved! You can be saved because he took the punishment for our sins on himself when he died on the cross, just like someone can pay your speeding fine in court, and you get off free.
Romans 3:23
John 3:16😊❤❤
I was looking for this comment LOL
So satisfying to watch. Would have loved to have seen you cleaning the engine bay and seat belts. I’ll search your channel for that. Also, I’m proud of you for wearing the right gear to keep you healthy!
That’s impressive, much love and respect to the work that you do.
I find it funny that someone says that a car is "uncleanable" and you're like " Hold my beer and watch this" lol. Just the simple act of getting rid of the trash and vacuuming makes such a huge difference!
Another great transformation!
Except for the fact that cigarette smoke leeches into everything and will off gas into the car for the remainder of its life exposing the new owner to carcinogens and cancer..
You would be surprised at what the right tools, chemicals and technology can do though.
@@Troupster😂😂😂
@@areasonablethought610 Yeah it probably can be cleaned with enough effort, but it is best to avoid smoking in the car. If you do that, at least have a window open and always throw the ash and the butt out the window. That way pretty much everything goes out and there isn't any smell inside.
Por favor, vaya sugerencia, que tire la colilla y ceniza por la ventana.😡
I just keep thinking...I hope they remembered to replace the cabin air filter.😂
Why spend money on new hubcaps that are as useful as engine covers or bumper stickers when it needs much more,besides wheel covers don’t hold the wheels on
@bradzimmerman3171 exactly.. but all of the repairs are super easy and cheap so I'm sure whatever the guy paid for the car was worth it if he got it for so cheap considering it's condition
Yeah they can get pretty manky. Especially considering the amount of crap that was sitting in the trough at the bottom of the windscreen
They would also have to clean the whole vent system. Tar coats everything.
@@bradzimmerman3171cause most people don't care if the oil pump assembly was cleaned or the oil pickup was swapped, but they do care that the car looks like it was slammed into every single kerb in the city. These cars are almost always bought to be re sold at a profit, not to be used as daily drivers.
Hello, my name is Jack. I am new to your channel. I am watching a recommended video on my UA-cam feed because I love cleaning so much. I also love cleaning cars and seeing you clean this car that is called an unable car really makes a good challenge and I love challenges when it comes to cleaning, I’m very excited to be a part of your channel. Hope to see more content from you.
I have infinite respect for the patience and diligence you have
My husband and I both smoked for years , and neither one of our cars looked like that!! Great job once again.
Mitch, man you are the guy to call when you need your car to be spotless! WOW!
You guys are amazing. Don't know how you manage to keeping turning these wrecks into thinks of beauty. I should hire you guys to see what you can do with my life!!
another remarkable transformation, thumbs up to you Mark
That air freshener putting in a lot of work
😂
What I always wonder about when seeing a car in this condition, is whether they ever did any maintenance. If they treat the inside like this, they probably never open the hood. Never get an oil change or even check any of the fluids. Most likely, the engine and transmission are shot. The value of the detail job is probably more than the car is worth. Great job as always. You’re a pro.
Check out the condition of the tyres! They're basically racing slicks at this point
Yeah, if the owner doesn't even care enough to throw his trash in the can rather than leave it in the car, you can't help but wonder how much he cared about the mechanical maintenance. Doesn't necessarily mean that the car is poorly maintained, but still.
@@MaxCroat You're right, there's an excellent chance the mechanicals have been neglected.
Well duh! They need every spare dollar for cigrits! 😂😂
I think the new owner may have his own dealership and figured he can get the car for close to a dollar. Get it detailed and running. Then slap a price on the windshield. With just a little over 100k on the dash, he's going to get 2k+ for it.
Awesome job really brought the interior back to life
I wish you were in every city. Every place needs a good detailer like you
This channel proves time and again nothing is a lost cause if you put the work in.
It's awesome that you are willing to work on these kinds of cars for others, especially when they weren't responsible for the mess. I can't imagine many detailers accepting a crazy job like that. You always impress me. Keep up the great work!
Great transformation looks good the new owner will be really happy 😊
Another incredible recovery to as close to new as it can be. I don’t know how you handled that one. Memories of growing up with parents who smoked came in and I had to look away. You make the impossible happen! 😊🎉
It's nice to see someone who takes pride in their work. Good job
No ozone machine used? Thought for sure you'd use with it being a smokers car. Looks great!
LOL..I asked about that too!
He probably still uses it but its not in the video.
Was thinking the exact same thing, cuz I'm wondering if the tobacco smell might return (headliner, underside and fronts of seats etc).
I had this exact same question. Surely he would've had to use it though - otherwise the first time the HVAC system was activated you'd be smothered in cigarette smell. The worst part is that I'm a smoker - but I don't smoke in my house or vehicles. Too gross to do anywhere other than outside.
Probably runs it over night
I’d be humiliated if that were my car.
Me too. So nasty
Matches your name perfect.
Me too i would be wearing a mask i cant stand cigarette smells in cars
I smoked for 36 years (quit 2007) and towards the end I was up to two packs a day. I NEVER let my vehicles get in this condition, not even remotely in this condition.
messy is one this but this was a garbage can on wheels
You are the king 👑 of cleaning cars. Brilliant job
That's pretty incredible. Great work.
Mitch, do you ever ask yourself, "Why?" Whoever owns this car has to be living out of it. This is ridiculous! Thank goodness you have patience and remarkable skills to work miracles like this.
You have it backwards, the owner's house probably looks like the car. Cleanliness and messiness show everywhere.
Oh my darling...this car is nothing. After 19 years in the medical field, I've seen vehicles piled to the roof with trash and that was just laziness, and people living in their vehicles that were very tidy.
You need to live a little more before being this judgemental.
Other detailers: "It's uncleanable."
Mitch: "Just another day in the garage."
How did I not know about this channel? This is awesome...sit back and watch you do all the work. hahah subscribed.
Incredible. Must be satisfying to see the results of your labor.
I love watching you breathe new life into these cars that others have given up on! This Rio looks so much better, and probably SMELLS 100% nicer after you finished working your magic. Always looking forward to the next 180 transformation!
It's very satisfying to watch these detailing .
My very first car I bought was in a worse shape on the inside, it was a Mazda 323. It had ash and cigarette buds everywhere. To make it even worse the Black label beer was also messed on the carpets which made it more difficult to clean on the inside. It was a 2 day, 11 hours per day job to get the smell out and get the car to a desired condition. Thanks to Detail Geek for all your awesome hints and tips no car will ever stay dirty.🤩
Absolutely unbelievable job! Amazing!
I’m surprised there weren’t tiny burn holes on the seats or floor carpets!😮
I am honestly amazed with the finished job. Well done!
I learn a lot from your videos. Keep up the amazing work.
A professional man, great job. 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
I never get tired of seeing these incredible transformations. Just the amount of work that goes into making it look like an almost brand new car is awesome to watch. Another amazing video👍🏼
This was really a case of a black car looking better in the shade - where it can’t be seen! What a nightmare inside. You worked true magic on this car, the change was nothing short of amazing!
Love your positive attitude! ❤
That was an amazing job you really are a good detailer and good detailers are hard to find
You make cars come back to life that looks super good 🔥
You should have added the owners reaction. I bet it was absolutely priceless.
They wouldn’t have dared showed their face on camera
@@Ste-_.He said owner, not the filthy animal he bought it from 😂
@@Ste-_. Yeah he said in the video that the current owner just bought the vehicle in this condition for a cheap price (obviously because of the condition). It was the previous owner who made this mess and they said it was uncleanable, the new owner had the car deep cleaned.
He’s probably in hospital, or soon to be!
Your personality is determined by how you keep your car...!!✨✨
that's some fine quality work I'd say.keep up good work .
Dude I cannot believe the way you do these cars how good they look afterwards you got a lot of talent
Your patience is out of this world. Great job
Looking at the finished result, you'd never guess it was in that state. Good job as always
You have given this car a new life much similar to a chain smoke dropping his bad habit this being renewed on the inside and outside its bye bye suit.
Thank you 👍 this video is spectacular.
Yet another satisfying transformation ! Keep up the great work and great content 👍🏽
Owner not only used it as ashtray but a trash can!
Really looks incredible considering what you started with!
Cleand like a boss !!!
For the person who said that this car was "UNCLEAN ABLE", there is proof THAT MITCH can work miracles. Another fantastic video👍🚗🚗
Ok Mitch, what about the headliner? Do you steam those too to remove the odors? I know you can’t show everything, but I’d love to see a clip of you tackle that!
Well done Detail Geek. You do a great Job of valeting 👍
Beautiful, strong work. ❤
Happy it has a new owner and won't be given back to its abuser, like so many vehicles I see on these channels
The Kia Rio hatchback got really cleaned up in this one. A movable ashtray is what it looked like when you got it. That interior was horrible. I think the dashboard is what you get when your toddler is NOT told to take his shoes off the dash and proceeds to dance there repeatedly. So glad to see the respirator in full use on this mess. 9 hours is a lot of time, but it was well spent since the end result was so good. I think you have helped Amazon sell a LOT of those steamers. I hope you're getting a cut or some compensation. Hey what happened to the Android watch? Did you leave it on the nightstand or did it get borrowed by Mike? It's usually part of your work uniform of T shirt, nice work pants, cap and cool watch. Have a great weekend, I hope spring weather is there. Thanks Mitch! 💜
Hi Joel, Glad to see you here. The new owner is pleased with the Kia car looks brand new. Have a great weekend! 😊
Haha good theory Joel! I decided not to wear my Apple Watch anymore as I got a new one recently 😄 Yep it looks like spring has finally arrived! Looking forward to getting out in the yard to work! Have a great weekend Joel!
i'd like to think that any toddler that was sitting in THAT front seat is a sure candidate for lung cancer or copd!
❤😊
Looks FANTASTIC...GREAT JOB...as always🎉😊
Turned out pretty good, all things considered. Great Job!
Awesome job ❤
Amazing! Awesome job as always!
It may be a mess on the inside but at least all that rubbish wasn't thrown out of the car. Kudos for that.
My mother was a chain-smoker and I got my first car from her and it was bad but nothing even close to that dumpster fire of a car. You're brave to even start cleaning it, let alone finish it.
Yes that looks awesome man
Awesome clean as always. Have a great weekend sir.
Great job Mitch!! What a transformation. I do think that using your buffer method on the paint would have help greatly in removing many scratches and you could have finished with your spray on wax for added protection .
Thank you for the videos, I am a big fan!
Very good! Congrats from Sao Paulo - Brazil 🙂
the magic man at his best!!!!!!!!!!
thats a huge transformation
Nice job, DG!! Your cars are like life! No matter how messed up things may be, if you’re willing to put in the effort, you can make everything new for yourself again!
Thanks for sharing!
Major transformation nice job
I'm concerned that there are people out there that actually let their cars get this dirty without bothering to do anything about it
I had a roommate like that. She'd let me borrow her old car when I didn't have one, so I never complained, but she got so embarrassed by it knowing I was starting to go on dates that she asked if I'd trade and use her new car instead.
There is more people like this than you know
That's was a doozy but you did a wonderful job on the car. I bet it smells so much better now👍🏾
Bruh your ability to take a car from that to looking presentable is astonishing! Amazing work!
I'm also curious as how someone can drive a car in that state, imagine the filth in their house 🤮🤮
this is the type of person who uses cheap gas, doesn't check the oil or brake fluid, never has water in the wiper system, rarely changes out the wiper blades and runs on deflated tires... hopefully the new owner got a GREAT deal.
@@karengreybill2860 LOL right!!! Then they sit there and complain how the auto maker is crap and don't build reliable cars... umm no you killed her lol
As always, another great video, DG! I’ve been scouring the internet, where did you get your bent tip extension lance for your pressure washer?
Gotta love the slicks on the front!.
It is always amazing to see the difference between the before and after. I remember one thing my father taught me about buying a used car, if the interior and exterior are filthy and trashed then they probably did not take care of the engine and drive train either.
Yeah I'm just imagining if the tires look like that, I can't imagine how the engine oil must look...
Only thing I can say another Great Job!! 👍🏼👍🏼
Amazing job!
are those the same christmas trees at 2:20 and 17:40? lol great job! hope the new owner was as appreciative as we are out here on the interwebs......
How do you get the smoke smell out of the headliner? How do you clean headliners?
I’m curious about this too! I was a smoker when I was young (and a moron) and the headliner definitely holds onto that stench!
@@jenniferraby3943 I guess he doesn’t read the comments
excellent travail MITCH, continuer !!✌✌💪💪
Very nice job!🥇👍
Amazing! Enjoy watching you work your magic.
Question: did you ever clean a car a person died in?
Tq Mitch for a new video ... great transformations...
Nothings uncleanable for you 😊 these are my fav transformations!
I've cleaned wet dog and cloves smells. For both, I took apart the interiors including dash and center console. I cleaned carpets out of car which did not help so they were replaced. The cloves car dash top and dash foam pieces were replaced. I also foam cleaned HVAC air box on one of the cars. Smell is 90% gone.
