I used only 1 chemical to clean the interior of my BMW 335d. If you're a professional detailer, I'd love to hear some of your suggestions in the comments!
The front bumper is getting headlight washer holes filled in for a cleaner look. I removed the headlight washer system because I feel they are useless here in Florida. The car should be done after that... for now.
Check out Jamie's Store!: ourwearhouse.com/collections/...
*Here is the inner door handle I replaced: amzn.to/3DCc1nU
Everything I used to clean the car in this video:
- Brush with drill attachment: amzn.to/3uRIpia
- Deep clean detail brush kit: amzn.to/3qXW1HC
- Magic Erasers: amzn.to/3uS6gOT
- Microfiber towels: amzn.to/3NGPs62
- Bamboo Skewers: amzn.to/38omO9C
- Mild Degreaser (Not the actual degreaser I used but this works too) amzn.to/3qWVdmt

Huge improvement. a wet vac of the carpets after the drill brush is the only extra step I do. Also nail varnish remover will shrivel up that rubber coating and make it east to remove for wrapping or repainting.
@maqywhaq
@maqywhaq 2 роки тому
The sticky finish is oxidization of the coating. Fresh, it creates a soft kind of silicone feel(computer mice from Logitech has that, a lot of late 90s, early 00's gaming peripherals to). Depending on the formulation, you can use bleach or peroxide to bring it back, but as you're forced to grind off the tabs anyway, may as well as just replace them.
@kdawson5
@kdawson5 2 роки тому
Just a heads up for the future. Magic eraser is far too aggressive for leather. It removes the protective clear coat pretty much immediately. Leather is actually painted just like exterior paint. The clear coat is what keeps the leather looking matte.

So in your opinion what can be done to restore that leather clear coat? My seats are all in decent condition for their age, no major cracks. all of the seats but the drivers seats are kinda dry… would like to save them before having to replace the leather a few years down the road.
@kdawson5
@kdawson5 2 роки тому
@@TheBaccaClench It basically requires them to be sanded down, resprayed with color and clear. I highly recommend Colourlock products for this. If you’re looking for a super easy DIY product you can check out their “Leather Fresh” to touch up spots. Their cleaners are also gentle but effective. And no I don’t work for them haha. Just really impressed with their stuff.

@@kdawson5 now you said diy to touch up spots. Is there a DIY to basically redo the whole seat but also not come off on my clothes?
@kdawson5
@kdawson5 2 роки тому
@@TheBaccaClench The proper way is with a spray gun. Basically you sand, clean, spray color, dry with heat gun then the same with the clear. You add a hardener to both coats. It’s 100% the same process as your seats were done at the factory. Just done by machines. So no worries about color coming off.

Great video Jamie. When I bought my wife’s 2011 328i it was so dirty inside from dog hair and makeup spilled drinks and only God knows what else. I spent 3 hours on the steering wheel alone. All total I spent about 5 days cleaning it but it was so worth it. Practically looks almost new.

@superspeeder
@superspeeder 2 роки тому
Jamie, great job!!! I will say, I think the most valuable technique to cleaning a car’s interior is just not getting it dirty to begin with. Spilled drinks and food debris make an interior disgusting in a hurry, and then cleaning is a huge job. I don’t do much as clean my car as dust it. 😉 BTW, be VERY careful with those Magic Erasers!!! Most people don’t know it, but they are abrasive and continued use can remove finishes. I threw ours away. I’d rather spend a little more elbow grease than damage something permanently. So true about dirty steering wheels and touch points! Mostly just requires periodic light cleaning with a mild detergent or leather cleaner. Looking good sir!!! 👍

Everyone has "their way" but the easiest (and less messy) way of removing those plastic welds is to just drill them out. Same way you do a rivet. Just drill the middle, and the head will shear right off. Usually on your drill bit. Also wanted to give you props. I too work on these cars for a living, and can tell you, your attention to detail is up there. Good stuff. I subbed. 🤌🏽

I'm sure someone has said it already. Melamine sponges are harsh. The degreaser too will dry out the leather so it's a good idea to top it off with a leather conditioner or an interior conditioner. Love your vids man, makes me want to own a BMW now even though it'll likely be a financial disaster in where I live.
