Amazing car transformation. The combination of the Mint shine and that Mytee is really impressive. I'm so impressed how much faster and more efficient your details are with that Mytee hot water extractor, pulls out the dirt and grime much easier and faster than using a Bissell spot clean pro, that's for sure. I didn't think to use a red drill brush on the leather seats but damn it cleaned it up well instead of using a steamer. Very very impressed overall. So satisfying to watch how clean the interior beige carpets came out.
Finally.... a detailer who goes the extra mile to tuch up worn leather, good man. It does not take long to add a little leather dye to worn areas and makes a lot of differance. In the UK I can get a 125cl bottle for about £15 ($17) and applied correctly I could do a whole interier with this. Top Tip. Stipple/dab, do not wipe, as this will keep the contour/grain of the leather. And apply in several thin coats if possible,(time permitting) drying in between coats with heat gun or hair drier.( do not over heat)
Appreciate that tip! The product I used recommended the sponge and circular motions and I had more control with gloves fingers and some dabbing as well. I should have busted out the heat gun and will next time like you said. Appreciate the tips!
I had those pop-up cup holders in the center console of my 98 Buick Regal. I wound up replacing them twice and the 3rd time I said forget it! Beautiful job as always!
That's a shame.... And some people can't get a car...and .... you have this atrocious crap!!! Shame on the old owner... just showing our first world ignorance
By not letting anyone take food to the car we have kept the car in really good shape. Too bad this car was so bad. Glad you could detail it and make it look so nice. thank you for sharing with us. God bless you.
i had a car JUST like this one 😭 03 E320 but mine had 143,000 miles and it was actually VERY clean aside from from arm rest wear and a tiny rip on the driver seat
Well, they use their eyes to look for their car, find the door handle and pull on it to open the door. They then move their legs and their hips to sit down in the seat below them, reach for the door with their hand and pull it shut, then put the key in the ignition, where they then turn the key which starts the car's engine. They then simultaneously press the brake pedal down with their foot and move the shifter, resulting in the gear change to drive, and then press the gas pedal with their foot and the car moves.
Hello very interesting your videos are from a great Alluda a question in what time did you average finish a job like these that you have a lot of success from Austin Tx greeting thank you
Much nicer! Do you have a steamer? That is an invaluable tool. It’ll really open the pores of the leather to get every speck of dirt out and accept conditioner. It’ll also pull out or mostly fade those carpet stains as well. It works wonders on super dirty trim pieces too!
Can you tell me where to get some of that leather dye? I need some for my black leather GMC Yukon seats and some brown for my Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland.
I like your videos.👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂👍 But first of all, you need to make a carpet, and then all the plastic. You make a carpet and splashes fly onto clean plastic.
I have a 2007 E350 and I feel the same way. I clay it, wash it, and polish it. Lasts a few months, then gotta do it again but keeping these old girls clean is worth it. They still get looks.
I think that it's waste of time to clean the full cracked leather on driver's seat. It's better and logical for it to be repaired before cleaning after this action yours magic time comes. But all the way you are a good guy and i wish you a good luck in your business
@@StaufferGarage given the year, it may have some undiagnosed transmission problems. Hopefully not the dreaded balance shaft time bomb, you'll be out almost $4k
I worked for Mercedes as a detailer and Mercedes has cheap ass carpet and a lot or their "carpet" mats. is that god awful velcro-like (indoor/outdoor) carpet. SOME of the more expensive Mercedes have better quality carpet, but not great.
Magic erasers, or melamine foam, is the single greatest cleaning product, in my opinion. Works a bit like fine sandpaper so there is care to take but it’s so damn good.
Those Mercedes sure do have some strange color patterns on their trim. This guy gets a 10 plus for making this interior look great again. Especially the door panels.
If that was an E class diesel it’s got a couple hundred more thousand miles to go! Great job on the detail. I bought some of that stuff you used on the door from another company I will not say who. I will leave that up to you to announce!
@@StaufferGarage the car isn’t as clean as it could be. It’s not about competing but doing a thorough job. I’ve also seen other videos of yours that you should’ve taken the carpet out but didn’t.
@@kristopherjensen2513 once again you are comparing. I chose to sometimes pull them and not on others. Like I mentioned before, you either enjoy my content or you don’t.
OMG 😲 I just can't fathom why someone would spend that kind of money to turn a nice vehicle into a garbage truck!!!! Sure hope they weren't someone who took coworkers out for lunch or dinner 😬, cause that would be absolutely embarrassing!!!
Hello! You did an amazing job with this car i have the same car and im in need of that exact dye that you applied to the door, what is the name of the dye
I’m telling anyone… If you haven’t pick up the mint shine leather cleaner and conditioner… You’re missing out. The smell off that alone is well worth it. I’ll be buying more shortly!

@@StaufferGarage your welcome, great channel btw..👍👍
That’s going to be the best transformation of this Mercedes Benz.
The seat part was insane!
Good morning everyone! Happy Sunday! Favorite time of the week!
I will never understand how people let their car get this bad especially when vacuum’s are usually free at car washes 🤦🏾♂️ Great Job 👏🏾
I haven't cleaned my car in 2 weeks and felt bad about it, until I saw this! 😄 🤣
It’s all about perspective! lol 😂
Detailed my car all day yesterday. God I love it!!
Right on! Always nice to drive a clean car!
I had those pop-up cup holders in the center console of my 98 Buick Regal. I wound up replacing them twice and the 3rd time I said forget it! Beautiful job as always!
I can smell that car! I ve been detailing since the 90s and Ive seen a few of these and they always smell the same! 🤢🤮
Yes! But some have an eclectic smell! For instance the 90s 240sx smells a certain way no matter what lol I love it
@@StaufferGarage oh agreed! Cars have kind of last that inherent factory aroma from different manufacturers along the years! 😢
I agree, dang hepa filters lol
That's a shame....
And some people can't get a car...and .... you have this atrocious crap!!!
Shame on the old owner... just showing our first world ignorance
Have you ever considered opening franchises of “Stauffer’s Garage”?
I just grabbed a few off amazon and left you a nice review as well sir!
Thank you!
Great job James
Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
itz showtime 🥳🥳
Heck yes!!! Party time
Fantastic job, my man.
The most impressive part of this is that generation of Mercedes hitting 300k
These are used as taxis in Europe they regularly have 500k miles and still work

Its amazing alone where you find these cars. How does anybody sit and drive in it? 🤮
I would say majority these days are dealer trade ins which is nuts they even take them

Looks cold there what state you in …. Great work and video
Ohio and yes it was in the 30’s when I was detailing but today it’s 70 lol

Yes I have a steamer.
I'd like to see a full detail outside and insde
Am I the only person who noticed the dope baggie under the back seat
Can you tell me where to get some of that leather dye? I need some for my black leather GMC Yukon seats and some brown for my Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland.
This car hasn't been clean since the Toronto Maple Leafs won a playoff series 💀
Great video! But a question...there are leather seats or MB-Tex seats?
its MB-tex, only the AMG's I think get the real leather
I have never seen you using a steamer most of the UA-camrs use it I think it can make your life a lot easier
I will say you must have not watched very many of my videos
I'd like to meet these folks and see if they are as dirty as their cars.
I like your videos.👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂👍 But first of all, you need to make a carpet, and then all the plastic. You make a carpet and splashes fly onto clean plastic.
so someone was driving around in that filth .... wow
I have a silverado you can detail how much you charge for detail it's 75% cleaner than this. $300?
This irritates me honestly i have the same generation( 2009) E350 and if I don’t clean it every 2 weeks i feel weird…

感觉这个手工毛刷清理顽渍代价太大，有时有些地方不一定能完全清理干净，为什么不用蒸汽加药水清理顽渍呢？！这样也省了不少力气与精力。只是看后的个人观点；但尊重你的选择清理方式！！！
So a nice Car but it was so destroyed
The outside was brutal for sure which is why I skipped working on it.
296000? Thats just broke in now
Yeah it drove pretty rough

Good morning!
Min 12:00, why did you leave that part dirty?
I worked for Mercedes as a detailer and Mercedes has cheap ass carpet and a lot or their "carpet" mats. is that god awful velcro-like (indoor/outdoor) carpet. SOME of the more expensive Mercedes have better quality carpet, but not great.
The owner should be ashamed of himiself.
Magic erasers, or melamine foam, is the single greatest cleaning product, in my opinion. Works a bit like fine sandpaper so there is care to take but it’s so damn good.
I look forward to your leather repair review. My 2004 ES330 has small cracking on the armrest and drivers seat.
It worked really well and will be out in the next 2-3 videos. Getting a good grasp of what it can tackle
Buy some leather "putty" it's great on cracking leather and very flexible so does not not come off..( may req'r dying)
Magic eraser is great…THANK YOU for finally saying it’s abrasive. Too many people just think it’s soft and gentle.
No steamer machine?
Not for this one! Be sure to see the leather dying and restore of the door panel! Game changer
Those Mercedes sure do have some strange color patterns on their trim. This guy gets a 10 plus for making this interior look great again. Especially the door panels.
Try using a brush on the arm rest, you don't need that abrasive thing.
296,000 is nothing. I have a 2008 Vibe with over 400,000 and never been detailed. It's not trashed like this, but still; it's definitely not clean.
If that was an E class diesel it’s got a couple hundred more thousand miles to go! Great job on the detail. I bought some of that stuff you used on the door from another company I will not say who. I will leave that up to you to announce!
Even though it was a lot of work, I bet this was a fun detail!
Big Thx for that huge discount! Got another drying towel and trying out the hand cloths!
Sorry, but other detailers on youtube got you beat. I'm seeing some pretty dirty parts of this car that you could have got with a steam cleaner.
Lol you guys and your steam cleaner 😂 I’m not competing with anyone. Either like my stuff or don’t. Your call and thanks for the comment
@@StaufferGarage the car isn’t as clean as it could be. It’s not about competing but doing a thorough job. I’ve also seen other videos of yours that you should’ve taken the carpet out but didn’t.

@@StaufferGarage lol, point out to me how I was comparing you to others in my last comment? Might want to reread it!
OMG 😲

Very bad job in this video, lack of using steamer was a big no go
Hello! You did an amazing job with this car i have the same car and im in need of that exact dye that you applied to the door, what is the name of the dye
Прекрасная работа 🙂
Hey lets buy a Mercedes so we can't afford anything else like getting it detailed!
Great job inside what about the exterior
How long does an Interior Detail like this even take you?
I’m telling anyone… If you haven’t pick up the mint shine leather cleaner and conditioner… You’re missing out. The smell off that alone is well worth it. I’ll be buying more shortly!
Heck yes Shaun! Appreciate the review and purchase! Couldn’t agree more
17:50 all you need is saddle soap and a stiffer brush.
Great job! What dilution do you use BioBreak?
Two full scoops per 5 gallons water
@@StaufferGarage thanks!
Sometimes I find it hard to believe these are actually that dirty…
Nice job buddy.👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Do you use an impact wrench for seat removals? And what extension piece did you have attached?
There's no such thing as a 2004 Benz E350. They start at 2006, you must either have an E320 there that was up-badged or it's a 2006 E350
Lol thanks for letting me know... must have been a rebadge then
Can’t understand why you doesn’t use a steamer. Great tool for that kind of dirt
I do, just not in this video…
Morning. Let’s get it going.
Morning Joe!
Would not have using a steamer been more effective and getting some of the deeply embedded stuff out?
that was one tired ass Benz! I think you gave it back a couple more years of life!
