- Learn how to clean and detail stained cloth and leather seats in your car. In this video I show you how to clean really dirty cloth seats with mud and stains in them as well as slightly dirty cloth seats which still need to be cleaned! I will also show you how to clean leather seats and use the corect leather cleaner and leather conditioner. The Super Clean series is about attention to detail so not only are we cleaning the interior but we are protecting it.
The key to SuperCleaning the interior is using detailing brushes, a good vacuum, and just paying attention to the little details.

I just posted my newest SUPER CLEAN video on how to Super Clean your Wheels and remove 2yrs of brake dust, tar, and stains: czcams.com/video/5zZyiY23OpY/video.html
Cool, saw it! :)
You could also use a brush that you put on a drill to scrub the seats
Love your videos. Question, how can I remove gum and/or slime to the seats?
Hi Chris, Awesome video, Was hoping you also had some advice on how to tackle stains and general cleaning on Alcantara fabric seats or interior. I find that most car product suppliers such as meguioars do not even have a product that is specifically tailored to suit alcantara fabrics and car cleaning channels do not cover this as thoroughly and with true results as you do with your videos, would really appreciate any advice or if you could cover this topic!

ChrisFix is the type of guy who says “Microfiber Towels” when asked what he’s thankful for during a thanksgiving dinner
Egiber Ruhl the type of guy to steal a comment from another channel
Thinking about this when my family ask what I’m thankful for on thanksgiving ima say snap on 😂😂😂 definitely not for the prices but for the truck and how easy it is to use the lifetime warranty
Egiber Ruhl resembles ice, he melts into water then evaporates away.

That’s great 😁
your "regular dirty" seats are mint condition by FB marketplace standards
Lol
dude no way its tavarish lol
hahahaha
@@chrisfix Keep up the good work
Ha I could have sworn I’ve heard you quote Chris before, now I know 🤙
The entire Super Clean interior series took me 10 hours yesterday. I would say 3 hours was getting 12 years of dirt out of the cloth seats. The carpet extractor vacuum is a gamechanger, and your videos have sparked a great new hobby for me. Thanks a bunch for your time and upbeat attitude Chris, your channel has made a seemingly unapproachable skill feel like an exciting hobby.
Yes and you can see how someone would gladly pay for those type of results teach a man too fish
🤣 I'm about to have the same hobby myself
my 2006 golf v that was neglected probably since day 1 is up next
I have a feeling its going to be measured in days not hours
If I get the extractor I will start working pt as a detailer. Beautiful vid/instruction
I used the ideas from the video, but I'm slower than most. It took me 4 months straight. I lost my job and became homeless. I lost my family and friends, as well as my pets. But my car looks awesome! Totally worth it!
Looks so good I live in my car under a bridge, now. The other homeless people are jealous.
Bro, as a business owner of an auto detailing business, you definitely hit everything I pay attention to to ensure total satisfaction of my customer. Well done 👍
how much does your business charge for ceramic coating a car vs just wheels?

"It's just like brushing your teeth. Brush it back and forth ... and then clean it off using a towel."
Agreed. If there's one thing that gets a lot of use, around my home, it's my tooth towel.
You dont have a tooth towel?
Is it microfiber?
@@LaurensVRC It _has_ to be microfiber!!
Loving these comments! 🤣🤣🤣

I am absolutely AMAZED at your versatility, overall knowledge, and excellent audio and video presentation. Being a mechanic from the dinosaur age(when "normally aspirated" meant carbureted and NOT the current definition of non-turbocharged), you've shown me new methods(mostly for cleaning) that I never knew.
Thank you for taking the time to do these videos!
8:55 "It's just like brushing your teeth... Clean it off with a towel... Use protectant..."
Have I been brushing my teeth wrong all this time?
LOL
But those all are on the Toothpaste...
You dont use protectant on your? Smh

Just cleaned my wife's seats today, followed the video step by step and the result was AMAZING. Thank you so much for the wonderful tips Chris.
God bless.

Today I followed your superclean videos cleaning the interior of my 13 years old car. It looked somewhere between your sister's car and the vandalized one. Now it looks like new. Thank you for the videos. It took me 7 hours, but totally worth it!
Nice work!

I used to detail cars for a living but never to this quality. These videos make it seem a lot less daunting and I will be following along these in the future when I clean my car. I plan to do a full clean inside and out and also a clay bar and ceramic coating. Love these videos and all of these techniques. Can’t believe I never thought to use toothbrushes while detailing
I used to have a busted up 99' Buick Century that I honestly only cleaned by dusting, vacuuming and running through a car wash. I have a new car now that was detailed before sold to me so I wish to cherish and preserve it. So thanks ChrisFix for showing me how to show my car some love. I've been going through a lot of detailing videos and yours seems to cater to the layman with inspiring enthusiasm. Thanks again.
Chris makin cars look better than when they rolled off the lot brand new

With some hard surface dressing, leather conditioner, some paint corrections, a good sealant, good wheel cleaning, and tire shine, it’s possible!
I'm not haten on Chris fix but have you seen the detail geek he makes cars look better than new.
@@gamerboy9093 oh yea, detail geek definitely details better. ChrisFix does DIY videos for anything car related though, he’s more of a Jack of all trades. Detail Geek is better equipped for detailing, but ChrisFix will show you how to do anything car related with common tools you likely have at home or could easily get from nearby stores for cheap

Adding OxiClean to the upholstery cleaner really helps also, just letting it sit for like 10 minutes before scrubbing and then vacuum works wonders

I am so glad to see you use the extractor vacuum on the seat belts. I started using this method once I had my first one, years ago, and found the same result as you. Mine is a Bissel Little Green Machine.
The leather version cleaning part starts @13:22 , but there are also some great tips in the clothe part as well, the whole vid is a great watch!! Thnx for the great instructions!!
How many microfiber towel u need?
Chris: Yes
best as always
Ah yes, the comment on every chrisfix video
I’m a construction worker. My seats have been ravaged by dirt, soot, sawdust. This is a godsend, inexpensive tools to deep clean my stuff. All of the other guys I watched were using really expensive extractors. This is awesome. Really made my day.
I have a Ford. F150 king ranch what can I use on my seats
Dude clean them then buy seat covers, whenever ur seat covers are dirty, just throw them in the washers
You're my cleaning spirit animal!! I just got a 2001 Toyota Sienna given to me! After years of being in a wheelchair, I'm so ready to drive again but this minivan had been used to transport a German Shepherd and Husky dog so there is an enormous amount of pretty hair to remove, cigarette smell and just years of dirt!! I haven't found a video on cleaning out the seatbelt clip!? It gets stuck everytime I insert belt!? YOU'RE THE BEST DETAILER ON CZcams!! So many tips, tricks and knowledge! I luv spreading the word! I wish I could hire you to do the job, from your accent I think your back East?! Most of your videos are from years ago so I bet you're a millionaire by now!!! 👏👏👏🥇🏆✌️😎
Who else is watching Chris Fix's videos because they are just satisfying?
I'm with reply above me.
He is like the superhero with the question mark as a face. I saw him on another site to help out with a restoration and they never showed his face, I was laughing my rear off because I thought it was finally a chance to match the face with the voice or should I say hands. However, they would only show his hands and if he was in the background they only showed him from the neck down.
Yea
@@sweetminamosa2413 plans of doing it "someday"
I wish my cars were dirty so I could do his cleaning! Well, my truck is dirtty so it will have to do.
I like how he compares his sisters car to a a vandalized one. Shows how much they care for each other
Racer Aadi 😂
My sister's car looks more like the vandalised car 😂😂
Yeah he cleans them after she vandalized them XD jk
Ha!
Just really like the fact that he uses tools and cleaners that you normally have at home. No really fancy, expensive equipment! Might have to purchase a few “specialty” cleaners, but I would normally have most of them anyway! Thanks Chris!
I just discovered your channel, but I quickly subscribed and am excited to watch the rest of your videos. Your attention to the little details is what really sets you apart and makes the difference between a good detail job and an amazing one. Your postive attitude and fun personality shine through in your videos, which are so professionally shot and edited, they are really entertaining to watch. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with other car fans, my E30 and E39 are going to be looking brand new in no time!
Thanks a lot!

Perfect. Recently traded my new car for an older one and saying it was dirty inside is an understatement. This will help me clean out the interior of the car! Thanks!!
ddi you clean it? and if you did, did it go well?
Chris,
Many thanks for not only showing us how to properly clean a car but how to properly create a video. There are many lame ducks out there. But it is always a pleasure to view one that is very well done. Yes, brushes are very important as well as good cleaning products. I am sure Meguire's is very happy about your referrals. My first employer 40 years ago, auto body shop, highly recommended their wax. But it is your persistent reference to what is necessary and how it is useful in the process over and over again. I wish all videos were made in this manner.
Thanks again for the great video,
Jay

Now I understand why a good detailer charges what he does. My best detailer doesn't hold a candle to this. Wow. I might have to do a Chris Fix roadtrip.
Thanks for all your videos man! I’ve learned so much from you, I really appreciate when you share in the links where to get the various products you use. I looked all over for a extractor vacuum, some were 500-600$ and the one you recommended was a great price! So thank you sincerely!
As far as tutorials and instructional videos I watch. You gotta be one of the hardest working ones. Nice work.

Thank you for the heart Chrisfix
As part of the hard of hearing community, I'm really glad that your voice is easy to process and follow, especially when captions aren't available
That's what I wanted to say.☺
I'm glad you find my voice easy to process and follow! And CZcams removed the ability for people to submit captions so getting them on the video has been more difficult but I'm working on a solution to that now!

Ya know, I'm an IDA certified detailer w/ several years of experience, but this video is really great. This is why I love ChrisFix. Great damn vids bro. Thanks.
Thanks for all the tips I used everything you recommended here and my 11 year old car interior looks amazing. For the price of one professional detail I bought the washer, McGuire's products and brushes etc. Thanks so much and I highly recommend this channel. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 👍
Good point....buying the stuff is cheaper than a single detail hire
What extractor washer did you buy?
Thanks to chris, my first car will be amazing!

Thanks👍 lol me with no sense in practical matters 😅....
Perfect timing! Gonna clean my seats tomorrow

Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
I watched this video along with all the other interior super clean videos, figured I would do this on my 1998 jeep. I started by trying to take out the drivers seat, I took out one bolt and all of the other ones were just a pile of rust so I used a grinder and took the bolts out that way. The passenger seat was about the same except even after I took out the bolts the seat didn't want to come out. So what took him 2 minutes has taken me an hour and a half. but it looks great now thank you Chris.
Wow! The most amazing auto interior cleaning tutorial out there. I learned a lot and can't wait to get to work on MY 2015 Honda seats!
Thanks Chris!!

How does anyone reach completion accidentally. This makes no sense.
Another great video by ChrisFix. I tried these steps and tips on my stained Jeep seats and they turned out gorgeous!
I came here to see how to clean seat belts. I was not disappointed. You've even managed to sell me on extractor vacuums... Love the attention to detail! 🤌
Was waiting ☺️

Just out of curiosity, how much would you charge someone to fully detail their car? I mean I’d pay you $1000 to get my car show ready.... you want more? Less? 😬
i wasn't waiting
Now that explains my project car problem: The dirt is deep in the foam, not just the fabric. So obvious...
Thanks to your cleaning video series, I recently opted for a more luxurious car that was simply so dirty nobody apparently bought it. Dirty enough I had to ask for plastic sheets for the test drive. Mechanically sound, but dirty beyond anything I ever sat in. Now it's almost mint, except that I can't get the seats really clean. Now I know why!
Side question: How do you get color stains out of bright carpet from apparently cheap floor mats in the car? Three rounds of carpet cleaner did virtually nothing to those.
Thank you, Chris!
Hopefully you'll be able to get those seats cleaner now! And try mixing dish soap and vinegar to remove the color stains!
Spray the floormats down with a cleaner of your choice then powerwash them and then extract them if you can.
Haven't found a stain that isn't removed by that, even hardcore oil stains.
Still you can probably get some used floormats from junkyard or online and clean them up instead of these.
And for the seats, you can also powerwash them if they don't have airbags and you live somewhere sunny, but you'll need to extract them afterwards and probably dry them in sun for a couple of hours or even days. Don't use direct sun so you don't change the colours accidentally.
Or you could take them apart and remove the sponges and clean them separately but that's really the last solution, i'd rather just buy all new ones.
Heres what I used and I had a custom shop.
Oxy clean & LA's Totally Awesome.
Dilute the Totally Awesome and mix with oxy clean.
You can get the powder and mix it .
A loose paste is optimal.
Use a stiff bristle brush to work it in.
Clean with a shampooer or the likes.
I have cleaned coffee stained headliners this way too.
But, use a soft bristle brush as to not "crush" the headliner foam.
Do Not press hard on the headliner.

@@lazar2175 Could you dry them with a heat gun?
I just brought a 2003 Honda pilot. It is about as dirty as your sister's car is. I am in the process of buying everything to clean it with. I've been watching all your videos and it has given me the idea of how to really get it cleaned inside and out. Can't wait to get started on it. And the leather seats look bad in it. So I'm hoping what you showed on the video will bring some life back into it.
