2007 Escalade Interior Shots

Hey guys

I just got finished with this interior detail, and I shot a few pictures to share with you. The pictures are not the greatest, because I was pressed for time, but you get the idea.

Process:
Remove all garbage

Wiped down dash, door panels, etc.

Pulled floors mats and swept, treated with folex (full strentgh were needed, 2:1 for general)

Swept all carpets

Removed all dog hair (there was a TON of it, pictures do not show how bad it really was)

Treated carpets with folex, and extracted

Cleaned leather with Pinnacle Leather Cleaner

Conditioned with Pinnacle Leather Conditioner (Twice)

Cleaned all vinyl/plastics first with 10:1 APC - Then with Pinnacle Interior Cleaner

Applied Pinnacle Vinyl Protectant to all areas

Cleaned all interior windows with Stoners Invisable Glass

Heres the Pics

Thanks guys ... I actually saw that hair after I looked at the pictures, and removed it after I saw it ...

Some of the pictures it looks like specs ... but it was my camera lense, I didn't clean it

It was a nice turn around though, I just wish I had time to get better pictures

LOL ... I know what you mean!

I love carpet striping myself, and actually have fun doing it, although sometime I get too involved, so do it over and over to make it PERFECT!
