Thanks Doug,

Two questions:

1. During your first step, what do you use with your cleaners(brush, microfiber)?

2. What's everyone charging for these stain repairs. I get anywhere b/n $65-$100. I get requests on every Jeep Liberty or G. Cherokee that comes on a lot. ......

I spray a fine mist of the Fitz or Simple Green. I use the triangular brush head on the Eurosteamer with a terrycloth towel wrapped over the brushhead. That is all I use to work in the cleaner. The heat & drysteam from the steamer is what makes this work.
For Retail or Service Depts. I have a $125 min. (which this would be), & for used cars it is always negotiable based on volume & repairs to be done. Of course I am in Los Angeles. I'm not sure about other markets in the country, perhaps people from around the country on this forum could answer that? (part of the beauty of this). Your price range sounds about right.

Hi, This Is Rich in New York, Regarding the Jeep and Ford seats, I've been very successful without a steamer, I first vaccum the seat real good, I then use a product from Pro'schoice called DRY CLEAN and wet the whole seat equally with it. I then take a brush and agitate the seat. I then take a white terry towel, lay it down and take a 6" buffer and buff over the towel to pick up and dirt and clean the seat. The last step, I use another product by Pro's Choice called Stain Magic. It comes in two Parts so you mix equal amounts of A and B and spray over the complete seat. The hard part is that you usually leave the dealership with the seat maybe a little wet and it takes a while for the Stain Magic's full results to see what you have. You have to trust your products and I've done hundreds and have had very little come backs. The hard part with these repairs is that you can make them look great but how long will it last. The next time they get wet from rain or snow they will probably leave water stains. I now have a steamer that I may use regarding Doug's great idea. The Dry Clean method is great when you don't have a steamer or at least the best idea I have been able to use. Also If you go on www.autoint.com they manufacture ValuGard Car Care Products and They have a process for removal of these stains. Hope this will help,

I made the investment in a professional grade steamer a few years ago. I keep reading and hearing people relate to (dry steam) steamers. The steamer I purchased has a dial to make adjustments in the pressure of steam and the temperature only. I will post a few pictures over the weekend to get some feedback if my steamer is just a soak master or if I can should actually be using it for interior repair and refinement.

Thanks Doug
