    Excellent detail guys. That Buick deserves to be on the streets. After that job he has to come back, he looks solid, in one piece. That's what it was made for and not to be abandoned in a rotting forest. You guys achieved a lot with just the detailing. Keep it up, I congratulate both of you and greetings from Argentina

    It’s crazy how much value you can add back to a car just by doing this. Even if that car was abandoned, it’s already a much more worthy candidate to be refurbished. As it was, it looked like it was one step from the junkyard. Now, the owner could make a few thousand off of it in running condition, because of your elbow grease. Great work‼️

Very expensive and quirky to repair. I’d look up some online discussions for advice.

That said, every time I watch a video like this, I have the same reaction - someone gave up on this car way before it was dumped in the woods. Never cleaned, never maintained. The car ended up like this because it was trashed by someone with no appreciation .

    On the spots in the upholstery you can’t get out with agitation + cleaner have you ever tried spraying with an industrial strength peroxide + surfactant? We own vacation rentals and I buy it by the gallon for mystery stains and it even takes out years-old stains. Just spray and walk away. Usually disappears as it dries. Sometimes takes a few applications if the stain is very dark but 9/10 it works. Several brands sell to the public, usually marketed for pet stains and organic stains because it also takes away smells. We like the brand My Pet Peed. But it works amazingly well, sometimes even before your eyes.
