A car detailer cleans and restores a luxurious Maybach, which is the pinnacle of luxury on top of an S-Class Mercedes. The car is unique but dirty on both the inside and outside and requires a deep clean. The detailer starts by cleaning the interior, including the seats, which have bolsters that move and recline, massage, and have airbags and electronic sensors. They use a leather cleaner and a leather bristle brush to remove dirt and grime, and then condition the leather.
Next, they clean the floor mats, using a vacuum, all-purpose cleaner, and a pressure washer to remove dirt and grease. They also use a rake to remove excess water from the mats. The detailer then moves on to the exterior, cleaning the wheels and tires with acid cleaner, iron remover, and all-purpose cleaner. They use a foam cannon and pressure washer to clean the car's surface, and then dry it with a microfiber towel.
The detailer also uses a spray-on ceramic wax to protect the car's surface, and applies a tire gel to the tires using an interior protectant spray. The final result is a beautifully restored Maybach with clean and shiny surfaces. The detailer reflects on the importance of enjoying cars and not being too worried about getting them dirty, as they can always be cleaned up afterwards.
