Very intense interior cleaning
I have had my SC for the past 7 years. At one time I took good care of it, but at this point, I don't think the inside has been cleaned at all in at least a year.
I'm currently kind of re-doing the SC. The way I figure it, I would rather drop some money and time into making my SC into what it used to be... over picking up some new car payments, no matter how affordable they may be.
So this weekend I spent countless hours, gallons of sweat and pints of blood - removing pretty much everything from inside my SC that I could possibly remove. I brought every single piece of trim I could take, including the air vents and seat belt clip trims, everything... I cleaned them all with Meguiar's and blue magic cleaner, than used Meguair's conditioner.
For the carpets I used spot treatment and than steam cleaned them with a portable steam vacuum. This was for the entire carpet (w/ seats out) and the floor mats.
Since everything was out I replaced and re-ran all of my audio wiring and installed a nice new custom sub box in place of my giant 100lb ported box.
I re-installed the new meticulously cleaned trim and seat pieces along with a nice condition front seat that I just got from Aliga. I took pictures the whole way throughout. I would say the speak for themselves.
Thumbs up to O.L.T for making a thread similar to this a long time ago. I recently read it and was inspired to clean up to.
Up next is my engine revamp than exterior. I will post pictures of those next weekend.
