    Here is want I started with.
    [
    The interior was dirty, however it was pretty much contained to the rubber mats.

    I removed everything and got busy. I started with a wipe down of diluted woolite.

    Scrubed the mats and hit them with the pressure washer.



    Shampooed the interior.

    [
    Afters

    I removed the road kill with SCG road grime destroyer diluted 1:1 and my steamer. ~ Thanks Motorcity

    That was gross!! I lost my appitiate at that point.
    Pulled it in the garage to look at it under the light. The paint was dry, dull and swirled of course. She had a shingle hit the hood from a wind storm.

    [I clayed and it was not too bad.
    I got organized and started on the hood.
    [The hood looked so much better after just one pass. I am very pleased with the WG product line!!

    Then I tried to capture the tips of the fishing poles in the corner just for you Dengood.

    mmmm… I think she has a bug problem.
    [Well… what do you think?
    [Ketil, I made sure to get some from a distance for you.


    She asked me if I thought there was anything I could do for her poor windows. I told her I think I had something that would take care of them.
    [I tried the DG 681 Plastic Polish. I was not very impressed.

    Really came out nice Tonya..the Black looks great..the Interior is great also..you did a fine job fixing it like new...

    on the DG plastic polish..it works nice on a PC and a 4" pad...by hand if its do damaged you will be there all day...I use it on all the Lexan bug deflectors and window Visors...

    for those lights with all the scratches ..I would of used Mother Power Metal polish..they come out like new..but you need to do by machine with 4" pad.....

    Very Nice Job...Super
