Join me on the final episode of season 1 as I discuss advanced stain removal. The two products I have used to tackle tough stains are P&S Professional Detail Products - Terminator Enzyme Spot and Stain Remover for organic stains and P&S Professional Detail Products - Carpet Bomber - Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner. I also highly recommend this Wagner steamer from Home Depot.

Stain Removal

- What type of stain? Organic or non-organic?

- How long has it been there? Time makes a difference.

- What type of material is it on? What color is the material?

My process"

1. Vacuum

2. Pre-treat with appropriate product. Always read directions on products/chemicals used.

3. Steam

4. Shampoo with a machine or brush, hot water and towel

5. Vacuum or use hair dryer to dry spot

Thank you for your continued support. I have to focus on doing what I do best - detailing. I hope to be back in a few months once the season slows down.

I dive into methods and products I have used when cleaning interior/exterior windows. I talk about alcohol, Invisible Glass, HyperClean Glass Cleaner and good old Dawn dish soap with water and a squeegee! You can get alcohol from any pharmacy. Just dilute it 5 or 10 to 1 with water. Hyper Clean can be purchased directly online or from our local distributor - Shawshanked Detailing. Just walk in his shop Monday - Thursday 9 to 5. Check out this small squeegee I bought on Walmart.com.

Whatever you do..do NOT use Windex! It is NOT for automotive windows. Also, use the two rag method - one wet, one dry. Go in a vertical motion for exterior and horizontal for interior. This way, you could tell where the streaks are when you inspect your work in the end!

Starting this week, I will be discussing challenges I have faced as a detailer, as well as most frequently asked questions from customers about how to address certain issues they have had. By far, the most often seen issue is dog hair and how to pick it up. I use the Analan tool. I also use the Wagner steamer which has countless uses around the home!

I am very excited to announce that I had the chance to interview*** Jimbo Balaam! Most detailers might have heard of him. He is a very popular influencer and is all over every social media you can think of. If you have not heard of him out yet, please check him out! He has a YouTube channel in which he reviews products. He has interviewed Jim McGuire (CEO of McGuire) among many other people in the detailing industry. Make sure to check out his show the Auto Detailing Podcast (Thank you Jimbo for the opportunity! I hope this is one of many times we will get to talk on and off the air!) Check out my Facebook Group!⁠ As always, please email me with any topics you would like covered. martyk13@pm.me.

Jimbo was the very first person I had ever interviewed and I am ashamed to say I did not have "all my ducks in a row." I would like to think I have learned form my experience and going forward I hope my interviews are more polished and organized.

In this week's episode, I continue my interview with a fellow detailer - Randy Rochefort - from Alabama. He talks about his experience as a detailer. This is part 2 of 2.
