I just hope the new owner really does appreciate what you did to his vehicle. The amount of hard work it took to clean it up is nothing short of incredible. You took a nasty, filthy vehicle and transformed it into something anyone would like to drive. Once again you proved why you're the best detail guy there is!
Thank you!
@@TheDetailGeekthat was amazing Mitch! I was thinking “I’m sure he can get it very clean, but looking like new?” I thought nature had won the battle with this truck in terms of getting it looking like new! Cool to see as I was proved wrong! Amazing work as always and a well deserved reputation!
I can’t believe you’re going to do this for 3 days straight.. that truck is really really gross on the inside 🤮. I would not like it if I would have to do that. Sorry Mitch but that’s really gross
Keep in mind that while he did an incredible job on this, it wasn't out of charity or the goodness of his heart. The customer probably paid top dollar for top dollar work.
Let’s hope the owners maintain keeping it CLEAN!
As former detailer myself, I always tell people how it's actually a very physically demanding job and can be fairly grueling. especially for a vehicle like this. I can't imagine having to film it too etc. Respect to you because you're putting in the work 100%
The fact that the seats weren't torn or cracked despite being in the elements for a long time shows how amazing the quality is
the thing is a giant piece of 2000s plasticy gm crap
Both of you are correct in your own ways
GM has a weird priorities
Dude no its not my car took 20 years before the leather started cracking and who cares if it does its just the dye get some new dye apply it and just like that the seats look brand new
I love how down-to-earth the owners are with their reactions, though they truly are surprised. Regular, normal people, who appreciate the greatness of the work in their own way.
And what an incredible make-over, Mitch!
OMG😵💫! I can’t believe what I’m seeing, this has to be the ultimate disaster. To take a truck in this condition and turn it into something worth driving is nothing short of miraculous. Your reputation is very, very well deserved Mitch!
Thank you!
I love this
@@TheDetailGeekis mike real!?
. I suspect Mike is just AI.
I think it's cool that the new owner will have this video as proof to the next owner (should they sell) how well it was looked after.
That was an absolute disaster, those cup holders were the worst!!! So proud of you Mitch and great transformation! Have a good weekend everyone!!
I might have thrown the cup holders away, but not our hero Mitch. Have a great weekend Botdog!
@@joelbuchanan471 thanks!
Hey Botdog614, I drop my jaw that Mitch knows how to do it and his success detailing. Have an awesome weekend!
The transformation of the carpet alone was amazing! I could have sworn that it had been sun-bleached! Excellent work. 😊
wow. you can literally turn a rock into diamond. great detailing requires love and passion
I just need to say Mitch that it's an absolute pleasure watching a professional doing his job immaculately! and this one is up there with your best work! Thanks for all your hardwork!
Thank you!
@@TheDetailGeekI discovered your channel a few days ago and I keep watching your videos since. I love the storytelling as well as the craftsmanship 👍 I have a question as well: How do you prevent that collected mold and dust enters the cleaned interior as soon as the owner starts up the A/C? I have not noticed you cleaning the air tubes and air filters of every car?
You are Professional Auto Details Specialist ! You never dissappointed anyone who send the vehicles theres !
Mitch, you always impress me with your hard work, and attention to the smallest parts. This truck looks incredible now! 👍
Thank you!
Mitch, have you ever thought about (I'm sure you have) finding a way to mount floor mats on the wall to spray them down vs doing it on the flat floor? I feel it would be better on your back while drill brushing. Having gravity on your side while spraying the mats down doesnt seem like a bad idea also 🙂
Ooooo, this is a good idea! Better for his back over long term.
Not just floor mats... more than once I've wondered why he doesn't clean inserts on a table or counter, so he's not bending over. Yes, it means he'd have more things to clean besides the floor, but better on his body in the long run.
@@aqacefan I remember he used to have a large foldable table where he cleaned the panels and other removable interior bits.
He did hv a table he was put'g all those interior parts on 2 clean.
I think he's try'g 2 work n Mike's Yoga Crunches so he don't get dunlap disease.😂🤣
Dunlap's disease. That's when their belly "dun laps" over their belt. More than one in three U.S. adults are obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control. A share of that is caused by heaping helpings of high-fat food and sugary drinks at which health professionals blanch.Jul 24, 2018
How can something so abused look so good? Mitch's talent and material quality must be the reasons
Watching this while I wash dishes. My mess is no where near the mess of truck. I’m so amazed at how much work and detail you put into cleaning and restoring this truck. 🙌🙌🙌
Never be concerned about your videos, Mitch. They truly are amazing and interesting!
I love that you talked about motivation. I only ever detail my own or my family's cars, so I have a vested interest in putting in the work - and it is a lot of work. Gives me a great appreciation for how much effort it takes to get out of a mess and gives me incentive to not be lazy about dealing with things as they come up instead of letting them pile up.
OMG, Mitch!! What a stunning transformation. The degree of filth in the interior was horrific but not as bad as I was expecting. I thought for sure the seats would be all torn and damaged with mold and rot. I thought the carpet was going to be so rotted that it would be sucked up when you vacuumed. You are a true cleaning magician. I have an Avalanche and absolutely love it. ❤️
You are amazing! That transformation is miraculous. Great job.
Great work Mitch you are really a legend in car detailing!
I can understand not being all in on the concept of a half-truck-half-SUV. I wasn't either but at the time, I was needing a truck to pull my trailer and all full size pickups at the time (during COVID) were super expensive. My 05 Avalanche was nearly half the price of an equivalent Silverado and it had the benefits of having a pickup so I went ahead and got it. So far, I have loved it.
That vehicle was crazy! Glad you take on these challenges Mitch..makes a good video
Really enjoying the new editing style, where you can hear the “cleaning noises” (lol) with the music!
Good to know!
All I can say is WOW!!! You are definitely THE ONE AND ONLY DETAIL GEEK. To bring that out of the mud pit , awesome, love love your videos so much. Have a blessed weekend, get you some rest 🤗💙
I think it would be easy to stay motivated - you get to instantly see results every second. Spraying off the debris, dirt, grime, vacuuming up trash, scrubbing the tires, applying wax, etc - the results are happening in real-time. It's so cool! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Sucks to see someone leave a nice truck like that out with the windows rolled down. Its great to see it brought back to life. I cant imagine the electrical issues it will have
I noted that in the preview post. Notice all the dust and signs of water in the center counsel, dash, near the electrical parts in the interior. It may be as bad as a flood car.
Flood is way worse because the silt gets everywhere, and all the computers are f***
Love to see the owners response. You did a fantastic job! You are a remarkable person. Love what you do.
Thank you!
so
much hard work. Glad you have developed a system for staying engaged. Because I think it goes without saying - we love your videos.
Mitch I gotta say that was a horrendous disaster of a truck but man the work you put into it plus the customer reaction one of the best by far made this transformation worth it keep up all the hard work your doing
Mitch, have you ever considered getting an optima industrial steamer instead of just the multi purpose one? It might save you a ton of time and also get even better results, not that your results now aren’t amazing. Your a fantastic detailer. I love watching your videos and steam car wash videos.
WOW! I really think that was your best work yet! Like others have said, I really hope the new owner appreciates your work and keeps it up.
I think I loved this one more than what I should. You always cease to amaze me Mitch ! Well done and good job 👍🏽
wow i wasn't ready for that result, way better than i think anyone thought it would look! really great job as always!
That was an absolute filthy BEAST to work on! It was so so dirty. This is definitely the worst ive ever seen. I panicked at the sheer work that would be needed when i saw it, so good on you for keeping calm and working your method of steps as you always do. Mitch you are terrific! I really admire your work ethic.🎉
Outstanding Mitch, you brought that truck back to life. And I hope they gave you a little something extra for that job. Smile and salute! Peace!
Hey Mitch! I just wanted to say that you are by far THE best detailer out there. You clean a vehicle the way I would want my own car done. Your attention to detail and perfectionism is amazing. We love your videos and all of your channels!
Now that I've buttered you up....when are you gonna lift your suspension shipping to the UK?? I'm currently in the UK and wanted to get in on your Black Friday sale for some Christmas presents for my Dad, but was super bummed you're not shipping here.
Keep up the great work though my man!
Mitch: you certainly did an amazing job on this abandoned Chevrolet truck. I think this was a "Lazarus"- type resurrection, for sure! Have a great weekend.
Your new name…Magic Mitch! What you did to that truck was incredible! I feel like a slacker!!! Will be missing you for a bit as am having open heart surgery in the next several weeks but hopefully I can bounce back with more energy so I can attempt to mirror your work on my own cars. You’re a true inspiration!!! Be well and Happy Thanksgiving!!
Thanks for the tip on how you stay motivated. Love watching. It’s therapeutic to me.
Amazing job as usual!! You are definitely a hard worker with lots of determination!!👏🏿😎
Hi as always great job keep up the great work
The Subaru was great but I think this is your best EVER! I think I speak for most if not all of your subscribers and viewers when I say we appreciate and rhoroughly enjoy all the time and effort you put in to produce highly professional and entertaining videos every week. Makes Fridays worth waiting for! Question: I don’t know if you’ve mentioned it but how is cleaning your Studio floor? It looks great when you’re doing your details. Just wondering how it works for you with clean ups. Thanks.
I'm amazed about 2 things. How can some people be so filthy and neglectful, who own/owned some of the many vehicles you've detailed, look into a mirror at themselves? And, your energy and diligence are remarkable. Only a perfectionist like yourself can understand why you are a solo detailer. Keep surprising us with your enjoyable videos. They're the first thing I watch on Friday's.
I’m so happy you posted this video thanks Mitch have a great weekend.
Mitch, I’ve watched a lot of detailing videos on UA-cam. I have about six detailers I watch primarily, and I have to say I have never seen anybody take a vehicle that is such a disaster and completely redeem it the way you do. Your work is awesome to say the least. Love your videos.
Appreciate that!
Mahn you're a magician! 🎉
Good work as always 👏🏾
This has got to be one of the best transformations you've done.
Excellent work... love it! ❤
Geez Mitch that is a lot of dirt/mud for you to clean up after, you never mention that part of the job, which you obviously do after each detail. you are such a hard worker, despite all your sprays and clays and cloths you still have to use your body to make things happen, even those people who own these vehicles and are happy with your work don't show their gratitude enough, I don't know what I expect them to do but I think I would squeal with joy and hug you so tight you wouldn't be able to breathe, now I've written it ,your right in thinking that I'm a bit crazy and definitely totally extreme, but you are amazing, I wish I could get your cleaning products, cheers to you!!!🥵💕👌👍👍💪💪
One thing is for sure…the man is good at what he does.
I will say that was amazing. I do have a question, though, when left to the elements, aren't you worried about mold and such? Wouldn't it be necessary to remove the carpet to clean the pad and things under it? Or am I just over thinking?
Great job! Always good to see the owners reaction when vehicle is done.
I'm so impressed! My first time watching! I've had my van detailed it was not even close to this!!! Brilliant work!!
You are a saint!! This is unbelievable!!!
The old owner went to a party and forgot where left his truck!!!
You need to hire Mike for full time....never mind😊
When I get into my vehicle after watching one of your videos I’m reminded at how easy it is to take care of it by taking out the garbage going over it with a duster vacuum and an occasional wash
Woow 😮.That car turns out so beautiful and clean 👍👍.Hard work & great job you've done again.From Germany
as mitch once said,
"80% may take 20% of effort, the last remaining 20% of the mess will take 80% of effort."
but in this case, the 80% will take 80% of effort, and the last 20% will still take 80% of effort.
🤣🤣🤣
Being a owner of an Avalanche, this was sad seeing it how it was but glad that it is going to a good home
This is probably one of my favorite transformations! And goes to show that a lot of vehicles can be loved back to life! My dad has the same interior on his 2007 Chevy Duramax crew cab. It presents well, and pretty comfortable. Not the highest quality or best feeling with all the hard plastics, but it is utilitarian and they clean up well!
Amazing...your production is very professional, keeps us all watching till the end!
ITS a shame to treat a Car Like this ..what people are These ..???? 😢😮
Three days?! I thought it might take two, but wow. Your dedication to quality is unmatched.
This one is soooo good I love seeing you clean abandoned and a lot of dirty cars
The trim pieces were my favorite this time. The Yard Geek is satisfying also. Thank you.
Can't believe someone leave the windows down and the sunroof open. An invitation for mice and squirrels to chew the wiring. Rain and snow too. Only thing I would do differently would have been was take the carpet out, just to make sure there was nothing under the carpet. Mitch, hope you charged him for your hours of work. Great job !!
Why didn't polish and waxed the car?
He’s just cleaning it. Guess he doesn‘t have the right material for that
He doesnt /usually/ "polish and wax" the vehicles he details from what I've seen, in a traditional sense.
A lot of times I've seen, he does indeed polish the vehicle with a sort of "paint protector/sealant" that makes the car shine, and keeps the paint healthier underneath.
So, not unlike actual wax, I'd imagine. And he may very well polish and wax other cars. I haven't seen *all* of his videos, of course.
Other factors: it may not have been asked for, it may not be what was best for the car, or he may have done it off screen this time and simply not had the time or energy to show it on camera. (This was a VERY long clean)
Or, maybe he just simply didnt have the time/or within the customer's budget! We simply do not know, in this last case. :)
I hope this helps! 😄
Wow, you did an amazing job. It turned out better than I thought it would. Keep up the amazing work. Great video.
I love to watch an artist at work. And you, sir, are truly an artist and amazing at your craft! This is my favorite truck ever and it hurt me to find out that Chevrolet discontinued it 😢 and it's hard to find a used one too. It's a week made machine; and this one is proof of that. Keep up the awesome work, Mitch!
Yussss new detail geek!!
It’s finally Friday ❤ have a great weekend Mitch 😊
Wow, amazing work. Can’t believe how well this one cleaned up!!
Amazing work ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I spent my 30 mins of life seeing this video an absolute masterpiece ❤🔥🔥👍
Danm you only lived for 30 minutes 😢
it says, that you made this comment the same minute the video came out 🧐🤔
Something’s not adding up
Definitely, one of the best ones yet! Huge thumbs up!👍👍👍👍
It is truly is astonishing the transformation you do on these vehicles!
Also, purchased and used your Iron Decon and Graphene coating products-worked like a Champ on my 12 year old vehicle!
Looks night/day different
Your a ford guy so it would make sense you don’t like the avalanche lol just my 2 cents…
I am a big Ford fan
Ew, bro use gloves 🤮
Bro your videos inspire me to become a detailer myself, I’m so blown away on how you get the car to look brand new. I’m ready to do the same I’m about to go work at a detailing shop and learn everything I can. You’re a legend man. 😎
Love watching you work. Great job as usual!
Not gonna lie- the story ain't adding up to me haha. No person randomly abandons a nice-ish truck and just leaves alllll the windows open because there were mechanical problems? huh
It came from a reserve….enough said.
Most insane transformation to date! Fantastic job Mitch. Love the owners reaction at the end. Also appreciated seeing the roof being cleaned, rarely see that, don’t know why I enjoyed it so much. 😂😂. You do amazing work!
Thanks!
I owned an Avalanche 07 and a Escalade 11 and now I own an 2013 Escalade love these trucks. The transformation was amazing, nice job.
This is why your the King of detail Mitch love watching your vids Mitch 😎😎😎
The plant on the dash was sage. It's a sacred medicine, I keep some as well. Love the video!
I’ve been watching your videos for a while now. This was one of the best ones. Soooooo satisfying.
Looks great Mitch. Have a restful weekend.
WOW! I can't believe how beautiful it turned. You make a very beautiful job and is looking brand new again!
I stg your upload came in straight clutch this morning!... 🥰🥰
I'm already stressin & it's still morning.
Tysm for keepin ya girl sane! 😊
Omg Mitch this transformation is incredibly beautiful and amazing and it sure does look like new again it sure has a good life now Awesome job Mitch as always
This is kind of a special video for me Mitch, my mother had 3 Avalanches before they were discontinued by Chevrolet. First one was a red 2001, next one was a red 2002 2500 (3/4 ton Avalanches did exist believe it or not), and the last one was black 2013. Needless to say I grew an attachment to these vehicles. Glad you transformed it from a lump of garbage to an absolute gem! And for clarification, yes the middle section does fold down to increase the cargo capacity.
In the '70s and '80s I was detailing. I had no drill brushes no extractors, no steamers no pressure washer no fancy chemicals. The seats and carpets would come out, I draped the carpets across anything I had, and used TIDE, a scrub brush and garden hose, and let things dry in the sun for a few days. Threadbare carpets received a misting of lacquer based touch up paint, then a brushing to cut the stiffness. Holes in the carpet under the accelerator pedals were patched using cut-up floor mats secured with construction adhesive. I had a technique of recoloring vinyl with spray on touch up paint that looked really good, and NEVER peeled. Rust freckled chrome received a wipe with hydrofluoric acid based rust remover that was marketed for the removal of rust stains on clothing. My cars, just like your cars, came out looking damned good.
The🐐!!! Once again your work magic like few have seen before. Looks brand new! Awesome job man love the channel
Amazing transformation !! 👏👏👏
Watching it at 2X playback really helped 😍
Your vids are awesome watching u detail/clean a car is ao relaxing helps me not be stressed out
Hey Mitch,
The truck/suv looks really good. You out did yourself. As Always Amazing!!!💯🔥❤
One of the best before and after cleans I’ve seen yet! ❤
Wow!!! What an INSANE detailing job!! Your carpet cleaner is MAGIC! One of the best transformations you've ever done.
Thank you!
I have the same truck, so I recognize every nook and cranny here. Actually, what's impressive is the condition the paint is still in. It still has a gloss on it, a good buffing will really make it pop. Maybe the dirt helped preserve it? Also... the leather on the seats looks great. No cracks. The overall condition. while dirty to begin with, this truck has weathered pretty well.
Amazing job you've set the bar extremely high this time! Well done 🤘
It is just amazing how many things you know how to do. You should really be proud of yourself. I am just amazed watching you here and on the Yard Geek. Take Care
Thank you!
Wow! What a transformation! Surprised the paint was still in good shape after all that time. Freaking awesome job! Well done!!
Thank you so much 😀
Mitch, you're a Saint! Great transformation video!
The detail geek Made it again!!!❤ Another satisfactory trasformationa
