- WD Detailing's Brent Dicesare and RJ Wagner walk us through how they deep clean this abandoned car, which previously belonged to a hoarder. The car was covered in grease and garbage and infested with both dead and live bugs and maggots. After removing the garbage and scraping off the caked-on grease, they approached the interior with a degreaser, steamer, power washer, drill brush, and Tornador attachment. Next, they tackled the dusty exterior with a power washer, microfiber mitts, and foam spray. Their goal was to give the car to a family in need. They did the job for free.

How A Hoarder's Car Is Deep Cleaned | Deep Cleaned | Insider
That was very labor intensive and the cleaning materials were not cheap. I hope your generosity is recognized and your business volume blows up! Well done gentlemen!
I'm guessing most detailers would charge $2000 or more for something like this, just for perspective
@@MatthewHartsuch You could buy a car for less...
@@josephc.9520 Exactly, which is why he said in the video it's not normally worth saving ones like that. The level of filth literally totalled this car, however the generous and kind detailer donated that labor and supply stock as charity and ate that $2k potential profit out of the kindness of his heart. Otherwise, that thing would get crushed and shipped to China to become the next Gillette you buy at the store and the next box of paperclips you get at work. 😸😸😸
yeah i can't imagine it was cheaper to clean the car rug than to replace it altogether
He has 7.7 mil subscribers and this video alone has almost 900k views. Based on the views alone, that’s about $5400. He’s doing just fine 😁
My heart just swells with pride seeing this.
My mom is a hoarder, and we once had a van that had mold growing in it.
Made me kinda sick.
We also had a dog (Chow, probably mixed with Terrier, he was quite aggressive), and he smelled pretty bad...
It just makes me feel like I'm standing there, watching my mom's last car she owned (dad owns the cars now, she doesn't drive anymore), get cleaned up really nice!
If you're not the child of a hoarder, then you'll never understand that feeling.
And I hope you'll never have to.
All the best to you and your family!
@@D3nn1s Thanks mate.
I feel this in my soul. My mom made us clean stuff like this growing up. I could smell the video if that makes sense. Both of my parents are gone now and this was very healing to watch.
The deep cleaning aside, I really like the story behind this video and I think it's awesome people pride themselves not only on their work, but being good people as well. This was a community service, and that's really cool.
@@Justin-ut5et what the crap dude. The whole world isn't corrupt now lol
@@hdsn.b wellllllll someone has been living under a rock
@@Justin-ut5et publicity for a service? Oh the horror!!!!…
Well they can be good community members and a business that needs marketing. At least for me
@@daneal9443 lol, maybe not everyone....
i mean they charge money so i don't know about "community service"
For those who were wondering, the car that they are cleaning appears to be a green 2007 Ford Focus. Also great job on the cleaning what a crazy transformation.
Definitely an 05-07 focus
Thanks for the update
so that cleaning was worth more than the actual car
Mondeo in the UK 👍
The focus is more of a medium sized hatchback, not sure if NA got that model
@@mlawlan69 Not a mondeo, a Focus. The US got the Mondeo as the Contour. The UK had the 1st gen Focus just like the US... we didn't get the 2nd gen Focus so the 1st gen continued until 2007
Can’t believe they did such a HUGE nasty job for free! Great big hearted people! Good job
Insider paid them for the video. So they got paid, and free promotion.
nothings free bro
It was sponsored. Make no sense if free.
Not free lol but they got free advertising from it. Basically people like u see this, praise the company, the company gets publicity, and they make way more money. Same thing drug dealers do. "The first one's always free"
doesn't matter if they got promo or Insider paid them, it was still a very labor intensive job, like hard physical labor, they probably had to work on it for a week, and by the end of it they saved a car and made someone happy, so kudos to them
As someone who used to deatil cars, this was so damn satisfying to watch. I loved the dirtier cars. It felt like you could make the most improvement. Pulling a carpet out was my favorite. Power wash that bish like no tomorrow with scrubs in between. Though, I would have opted for plastic tips to scrape the carpets. Would be easier on the fibers.
That hair removal tool doesn't do any damage and it's used by literally every detailer in the business. They are fkn magical. I couldn't clean half the cars we get if I didn't have them.
This is why mental health should always be taken seriously! Thank you for performing such a great, detailed service for someone in need. It makes a world of difference!
You can be depressed and not have a car worse than a homeless person colony.
@@catiloh6086 I know, right? Damn!
Do you guys in the replies not know what hoarding is?? Yall need to learn more about things before yall say stuff
@@froggman66 yeah. Honestly this wasn't the worst of hoarding cases I've seen. They get bad. Real bad.
@@avery_is_here9054 yup
I have so much admiration and respect for Brent and RJ's expertise, patience, and kindness.
I once lived downstairs from a hoarder. When she finally left (in the middle of the night), the entire apartment had to be stripped down to the rafters. Thankfully she never had a bathtub overflow. I can’t imagine having to save this thing.
I get why, I just don't see it personally lol.
Fake story.
@@kishascape which part
My parents are borderline hoarders, I know how horrible it is. When I lived with them I’d always spend a whole hour cleaning my room and then my dad would see there was space and would start moving more stuff into my room. Pissed me right off. I started throwing stuff away in secret and finally managed to convince them to throw stuff away properly like a year before I left home. My own home is completely minimal as a result, I won’t but unnecessary extras.
-Sorry for boring you with my life story
I lived below a super crazy hoarder. He filled his 2 room apartament to the brim and started moving stuff in the vestibule. that's when he was noticed but nobody did anything until he was found dead from alcohol (he also was a drunk) in his apartament. After that man in masks and protective clothing were working for days to clean his apartament.
The deep cleaning series is really satisfying to watch. It's just nice to know that people specialized in cleaning specific things do exist, when we live around people who just toss dirty stuff and buy new one, piling trash. You guys are lifesaver.
Extreme hoarding situation, wow. I'm grateful that I've never let a car get this bad, even when I was living in them. Great guys with good hearts going the extra mile.
Never seen a detail that deep before that’s unbelievable amazing great work
The dye was an interesting idea. I had no idea there were carpet dyes for cars.
They make a paint-like substance for repairing very worn vinyl upholstery too.
Carpet dying isn't as good of a solution as replacement but if you're on a really tight budget it is an option
A new, or used carpet for an old Ford focus is extremely cheap. They even had it out, just get a different one. Again, very cheap to replace.
Thanks for letting us know that
Me neither
I'm stunned that the carpet was salvageable. Amazing job
This is literally what my ex's car looked like and he refused to ever let me clean it. Once in awhile we'd fill up a trash bag but that was it. And he'd say oh well it was already gross and nasty from his brother and his family who had it before him. Apparently they just let their kid make messes in the back seat and never cleaned it. So he just figured why bother? I literally couldn't wear nice clothes with him cuz I was afraid they'd get dirty or stained from his car. The amount of times there was a funky smell and I'd have to dig through the car to find the rotting food... And he'd talk about how embarrassed he was by the car but then wouldn't do a damn thing to change it! It was infuriating. And don't even get me started on his bedroom... dude had issues, least of which was refusing to ever let anyone help him with anything. I tried my damnedest that's for sure but some people just can't be helped.
it is difficult sometimes
That’s why he’s an ex.
May have some sort of executive dysfunction, anxiety, depression. A lot of people don't know how to ask help.
@@ThatOneSammi If he was embarrassed yet wouldnt do anything about it then he was stubborn & lazy because you dont need to ask for help cleaning your car.
@@raze_6474 it's fine that you don't understand mental health and the effects it has on basic tasks.
Besides the generosity of time, energy and expertise, I’m impressed by the generosity of heart that can simultaneously honestly describe the filth while being gentle towards the person with a hoarding problem. It’s easy to be judgmental m. Thank you for being kind.
And I thought my car is dirty.
Kudos to the cleaning company and the mechanic for helping people in need.
I am no professional... but have owned numerous motorcycles and cars over the years and have spent many hours cleaning them well enough that others cannot believe how new they look when they are several years old.... what you and your staff here is remarkable.... absolutely fantastic!!!
Lol normie
I think a lot of people would be proud to own that car. Especially someone like me who can't afford to buy a vehicle.
Fabulous job! ✌😎🤘
Me too i also think a car helps a lot with a number of things so why should we care what car it is
@@singahsung712 I have a "friend" who keeps trying to convince me I'm lucky I don't have a car so I don't have to worry about coming up with $1,000. if it breaks down. He can't frickin understand that the inability to go shopping, drs app., fast food joint is not frickin lucky. He can't grasp the fact that having to rely on others fucken sucks. Especially for an introvert who lives alone and is otherwise independent. The fact that I can't afford to buy a car and cover insurance doesn't penetrate his skull. Sorry about the rant....please forgive me.
@@victoriawilliams2786 well, you don't have to listen to people ALWAYS. Sometimes you need to do what you feel is right for yourself, irrespective of what others feel about it.
@@singahsung712 got one for 3k
@@victoriawilliams2786 I'm assuming you live in US, because if you lived in europe you wouldn't say that.
Public transport is more than sufficient in europe
That was amazing! Great job guys!! I know the owner was thrilled. God bless you more abundantly for doing that job for free! I know God is smiling upon you! Thanks again for sharing!
Deep cleans are the only reasons why I subscribe to insider
It looked like it had been at the bottom of a lake for a few years. What an incredible transformation
I'm glad that Parker's in treatment and hope that he's doing better. What a transformation!
I hope he's doing better to
To clarify, Parker brought the car to Brent and RJ, with the intention of giving it to a family in need. The previous owner, who went into treatment, was not named. And, yes, we hope he's doing well and feels good knowing that his car is helping a family.
😍
Parker wasn't the hoarder, he bought the car from the person it belonged too
I had no idea detailing was so in depth and complicated. Those tools are a life saver! Wow! Remarkable job! 👍🥰
Looks amazing after
Brent Dicesare and RJ Wagner are godsend. Thank you for that labor of love. Very satisfying to watch as well
Wow! Thank God for people like you, your partner and Parker!!
Deep cleaning these kinds of cars is always relaxing and satisfying ☺️
To watch, only! 😆 🤣
Yeah, but they are REALLY hard to clean and it is a long process.
I would deep clean with fire.
Before you see the bills
@@JeffriRanger fire free
My man! No tyvek, no mask, just gloves!!! You are a brave soul. Thank you for the great content.
What a HUGE job!!!! Unbelievable amount of labor and love went into rejuvenating that vehicle. WOW! Unless you’ve detailed for a living, you cannot appreciate how much work, and materials, went into this car.
It's a physically demanding job.
You guys did a great job! I would have totally appreciated that car! ❤️
What an amazing bit of promotion for the company. If they can do this car you can be sure they can do an amazing job on yours. This is the equivalent of a razor company advertising their products by shaving a gorilla.
That would be a good commercial.
hmm kind of
Not really, more like a wild boar 🐗 covered in dry mud...
@@colelangford6369 yeah except they would be cancelled as it would be like animal abuse
Or me
Y'all're the kind of people that uplift others, you are the glue that keeps civilization from degrading.. literally.
That carpet dye is great. I had a detail shop use it on my floor boards of my old car. It even concealed the worn down places in the carpet by making it all an even color.
Guys like you are angels on this planet. Good for all of you! I wish it comes back to you ten fold. Thank you 😊
Its 10pm at night but now i have a huge craving to go downstairs and clean my car 😂
I dont even have a car and I want to clean mine lol
@@RawringTaters come clean mine with me! Lol
I wanted see parker’s reaction! Oh well, awesome job guys. You guys are legends.
I'm just amazed at the after shots for this car. You guys did the literal best job in the business
Great job but if they used the same tools on my car straight after no thanks. I can tell you people use the 24 hour hire machines like rug doctor to clean up dogshit and worse.
I could watch the extractor for hours, so damn satisfying.
I never thought something that exhausting and challenging can look so calming and satisfying...
I had to detail cars as a kid It's long and difficult work, but satisfying to know you did a good job once you're done.
Almost looked like a crazy challenge.
Amazing stuff. I'd have had most of the interior stuff replaced too if I were the owner. 👍 to the detailers.
Whoever gets this car for sure should be happy. These early 2000s Ford Focuses are very well-made. Will last hundreds of thousands of miles if regular oil maintenance.
That would be the next - even bigger - challenge. I guess the car hasn't been serviced for a long time. Liquids, sealings, electronic and so on...
Eh... Ford focus has never been what I would call "well-made." It's always been a cheap, commuter econo-car.
This was so satisfying to watch and also enjoyed the commentary. Thank you brought so much happiness to my ❤️
God blessings to Parker and you guys.
That carpet is an ecosistem in itself.
Good thing it was cleaned, could have became the new earth, 😟
Dyeing the carpet was the absolute right decision. Great job…..!
Tysm for the subtitles, it helps me learn my English as well
Thank you for doing this for free! Goodness you just restored my faith in humanity ❤
I live in a big city so I see people with these types of cars fairly often, A lot of the time they're not even living out of the car, They have a house and everything. I feel bad for these people and I'm glad you The person who gave you the car wanted it back hole so he/she could give it away. All good stuff
yeah some ppl man.... scare me. damn hope they get help
Wow.... night and day transformation! Well done! Very satisfying to watch.
Wow looks brand new.
Whomever get this car for free after that beautiful detailing is such a lucky person. Bless for all the people that donate and help to clean this car.
This might be the dirtiest car I’ve ever seen in my entire life. Kudos to the team for awesome work. 👏🏻
Great story and satisfying result. Well done! I am in the car business, and I know you need to keep the video a certain length. But I don't think people realize how much work that really was.... Taking out the seats, carpet, console, etc. Thorough.... especially for sanitary reasons on this one!
Big respect to you guys your help does not go unnoticed or unappreciated thank you
Bit of over kill
WOW!!!🎉
Those people are like...superheroes. They literally turned a stinky, gooy, and dusty car into a brand new car!!!That is truly amazing love it❤❤❤
I usually clean cars for my dad, as he purchases salvaged cars and they all come in dirty, but this video made me appreciate how clean people are, even the most dirtiest car I've ever cleaned out pales in comparison to this vid, was cool to see the before and after results :)
Dying the carpet was a nice professional extra. Thank you for doing that for the new owner
I wouldn't have thought anything in that shape could ever be cleaned. Amazing!~
When I saw the center console at 7:06, my heart literally dropped. If I were faced with a task like this, I think I’d just get discouraged. These detailers are cut from a different cloth 👍👍👍
Unbelievable! If only we could of seen Parker's reaction.
You guys have done a miracle on this car.
Nice job guys! Sometimes just having reliable transportation is the difference it takes to get a good job. This will help someone for sure!
You guys are awesome! Very satisfying to see that poor ol car get such a deep cleaning:) so great that someone in need can use it now 👍
im so proud of the person who owned this car, not everyone with this problem can help themselves. thank you for doing this!
As an automotive painter I just wanted to say that a layer of dirt/dust does NOT protect your paint from anything, quite the opposite actually. A good wax is what will protect the paint from UV rays, having a constant layer of dirt on a car is what causes paint to deteriorate prematurely
It is remarkable how a showroom-perfect vehicle always emerges from these 'miracle cleans' - no scratches, no parking dents, no torn upholstery or cracked windscreen.
There is a large hole in the floor mat still in the after pictures.
There’s rust everywhere
I appreciate this video as a person who had, and still to some point have hoarding tendencies.
Of course nothing as severe as here, but it definitely got in my way when i was living alone.
No bashing and calling the owner nasty and disgusting.
Often times hoarders know that they're living in crap, but for one reason or another, they don't feel like doing anything about it, be it attachment to the trash or...really, anything else. Heck, for some it may just also be that they don't know any better.
But calling them nasty, stupid and so on won't help
So
A video like this is just great. Just showing the process of the cleaning up part.
A majority of the time hoarding is caused by depression
@@MASTEROFEVIL Yeah, it's very common too.
I was pleasantly surprised as many times I see hoarding videos with the most unthoughtful comment section. Both my parents are hoarders & have been my whole life. I'm 30 now, but growing up in it then now they're older & trying to help them with it, no one really understands they aren't just lazy or slobs. They truly have mental illness. Both my parents want a clean home but they just can't do it. My husband & I try to help as much as we can but every time we clean a room it's back to the way it used to be very soon after. It's sad!
I used to restore classic cars to new condition and it was very satisfying, the customers usually couldn't believe the final result as it always looked like showroom new. This was a great cleanup of this car for a good cause, nicely done.
I'm glad to see this car being given a second chance at life
You are truly wonderful people who did something for wonderful for other wonderful people. If only the world worked the way you do.
Amazing job. Extremely well done. So good of you guys to do this for free. Hope the car end up with the right folks.
Talk about going the extra mile, satisfying.
I hope the person who got this car never sees this... As great a job as you did, it would still give me nightmares. 😨
Absolutely UNBELIEVABLE. AMAZING JOB
I was living with my parents when the pandemic started. I was an essential worker and my parents were so scared that I’d bring home focus they asked me to move out. I basically had a few days to move and a lot of camping stuff I didn’t have room for in the new place got stored in my car. Then the seals around my windows failed and the constant moisture made mold grow under the stuff. Now I have a place with room to move the camping stuff but it’s so moldy that I don’t want to “infect” my home with the grossness.
So I’ve put off the big cleaning project and I’m terrified that my car looks like this under all the junk. It’s so embarrassing because I’m not a dirty person and my home is clean and organized. But at the same time I can’t/won’t let anyone ride in my vehicle and the looks people give when they see the mountain of stuff inside is humiliating. I know I need to do something about it but I just feel overwhelmed.
Hey, I got mold in my car too, during the pandemic. My car's seal also failed and it was raining for 24+ hours during that time, and since I was working remotely and go out only once a week, I nearly passed out seeing the condition of the car! After about a couple of days of just staring at the car being demotivated and all. First thing I did was made a mixture of vinegar and water and sprayed it on the moldy seats. Then kept spraying it every few days until the mold died. Then i made my own mix of clover oil to kill the spores so it doesn't grow back. Not sure if it helped though. So finally I went to a detailing company like this and paid them to deep clean (hot steam) all the seats for $300. The final step has made all the difference, honestly.
Throwing out store receipt ought to be a good start. Cardboard/plastic Boxes also help make the stuff in your car organized, so does putting them in plastic bags. Bins also help with food wrappers and bottles.
You gentlemen deserve the largest increase in business. You all are such kind souls, thank you for your good deeds!
Just a question...wouldn't the replacement of carpet cost less than the cost of the labour, chemicals and electricity used to clean it?
Yes. But Technically they didn't spend anything. They already had everything to clean it.
@@I_WANT_MY_SLAW you're right they didn't spend anything, but they will still have to replenish their supplies from using them on this. So even if they do order more, than their overhead on that free job affects future jobs.
@@JohnSmith-hv6bi they probably just cleaned it for the views. Because it really doesn't make sense to clean it, when getting a new carpet reupholstered is much easier. He even said in the video that he never does it.
Lmao exactly new carpet would be like $200-$300 max instead of wasting all that time and materials
Amazing transformation
It was really satisfying to watch
Nothing better than doing a job with the right skills and tools. Well done fellas
I need this done to my brain
The impossible can be done right away,miracles take a little longer,well done.
Great job. But this is why when u buy a used vehicle and its immaculately clean, u shouldn't assume it means the previous owner took good care of it.
True. They could’ve never changed the oil, it might not have any gas in it, it could have 20 OBD codes.
Im glad you and your friend did this to the car. many people dont realize hoarding is a mental illness. The person has had a tragedy in their life and hoarding is the outlet for that person
Honestly I would never clean a disaster like this... This car should be thrown away. Imagine if you bought the car cleaned and learned in what state it was before you bought it (Dirt like this can never be 100% cleaned)
I'd be sick. No way I'd still want it
The unsung heros of vehicle restoration.
Incredible. Absolutely phenomenal job. You guys definitely went above and beyond with this, keep up the amazing work!
Holy fruck, some people would total this car and be done with it, but you saved it. You are amazing!
I'm curious as to how much that kind of work on a regular car would cost. Definitely hundreds of dollars, I'm sure!
Yep, probably upwards of $200 or so
Detail cost can vary. Definitely more than a few hundred and not as cheap as some would think. For a good detail. Buffing, clay bar, waxing, ceramic coat, underbody cleaning, engine bay cleaning, entire interior, carpet, etc… It can get very expensive
Incredible work! Very satisfying! ❤
How much would a detail like this cost?
As much as the car lmao
What a huge transformation! You did a very kind and loving thing.
Bro where did you find my ex's car? 🤣😭
So kind and generous of you. I admire the tenacity and dedication in your work. Great transformation.
Yikes, probably found an 80's McDonald's wrapper in there
Amazing work. Everyday hero’s.
How is cleaning the carpet cheaper than replacing it?
Wow. What an awesome job you did. Respect guys! I didn't expect the carpet brush could scape that much more out of an carpet that was washed before👀👀👀. Good job.
