So I think this is the right thread for this. If not let me know and I'll move it.

Anyways I'm posting from my phone so I can't include the pictures but I will do so when I get home.


I recently got this little guy and decided to clean my interior with it. Like the video says I usually keep the car clean and it doesn't stink nor did the seats have stains or show many signs of them being dirty. But I was wrong.


Anyways enjoy.

By the way sorry for portrait mode. My phone case has a flap that covers the camera and the only way to record with one hand without the flap closing is in portrait.

my mother in law has one that's been in my possession for a long time now. i use it all the time to clean everything from little spills to the carpet once ever month. great little thing and yea if i miss a month of two because of the winter holy crap is there a lot of dirt.

when I used to detail cars i used one of these only it was a bigger model had its own heater and would get the water very very hot and it was amazing.

i had one and somehow the heater got full of calcium, so i don't use it anymore, but yea it was even more useful

how is this with hair? i've got a pup that i take with me everywhere but she sheds a lot.

This one also has a great built in heater. It doesn't get cold water super got but warm tap water starts to steam. I love it.

It's not bad. I have a black lab that rides with me all of the time and I hit the seat with my shop vac then this and there no hair or dog smell left in the car.

the trick is to vacuum the car first to remove all the big debris then go to town with the steam cleaner.

What's the brand/model?

It's a bissel little devil I think. There may be some better models but I got it for free and it works amazing.

you can give it a boost by putting hot water in it to begin with.

then presoak the fabric to be cleaned with cleaner or even just water in a spray bottle. go easy on the cleaner some can foam up inside the tank and make a hell of a mess once you start extracting.

and as said above, vacuum before using this. it isnt a vavuum cleaner its an extractor

That's what I did. I used resolve and a little good smelling carpet cleaner and let it soak for a few minutes then went to town. It was amazing.
