Rep Power: 357 www.carbrite.com will describe the products I mention.
Exterior
1. Spray tires and rims with Special Blue degreaser.
2. Spray engine bay with Special Blue degreaser.
3. Spray door-jams with a degreaser.
4. Rinse off all of the above with hot water, excpet engine bay.
5. Spray engine bay with basic degreaser.
6. Spray rims with wheel acid and brush.
7. Rinse off rims with cold water and engine bay with hot water.
8. Wash vehicle with soap and rinse it off.
9. Spray the floor mats with degreaser and rinse with hot water, these get put into a huge dryer box to dry.
Interior
1. Spray carpets and seats with a extracting soap and let it soak for 10 minutes
2. Use extractor and hot water to shampoo seats and carpets.
3. Let dry with drying hoses for 2 - 6 hours depending on how wet the vehicle is.
4. Use Clean-All and a rag + brushes to clean all the vinyl/vents
5. Use Window cleaner along with steel wool, a rag to dry up most of the liquid and a dry rag to get rid of streaks.
6. Vacuum the vehicle.
7. Put floor mats back in.
This is just a basic thing we would do for a retail customer, we do the majority of our work for dealerships and there are extra things like deodorizing, carpet masking, fabric. leather and paint protection as well as polishing. Prices start at about $159.99 for cars and $199.99 for trucks.
Hope that answers your question.
If you have any other feel free to ask.
