  • Grass and mold started to grow inside this Lexus GS 300 after the owner left it uncovered outdoors for six years. The mold developed after water found its way into the vehicle through a leak in the sunroof. The owner didn't discover the leak until five months before the detailing. WD Detailing’s Brent Dicesare tells us how he and his partner, RJ Wagner, removed the mold from both the interior and exterior of the car.

    This was more of a cosmetic fix, the mold will eventually come back. Especially considering there is probably mold all under the carpets and inside the seats that they can’t get to. Owner is most likely going to sell it to someone and make it their problem.

      @Semerah Padi If it was only a minute, It should be fine to get it professionally cleaned. Just make sure they do a good job. Then get yourself a ozone machine and let it sit in your car for 24 hours after it's been clean to kill any possible mold. Maybe you can pay them extra to rip up the carpet and clean underneath.

    Unreal how clean they got that car! I would be wary of the mold coming back, but considering the upholstery can’t be removed, these guys did an amazing job and their hard work will definitely slow any reoccurring mold issues. I do hope the owner keeps up with regular cleanings and got that sun window fixed!
    As a side note to the well-meaning commenters out there, don’t be too quick to judge the owners of anything that becomes dirty. You never know what they might be struggling with, so this is a gentle reminder to have compassion.

    Honestly when a vehicle is this bad even after it's visually clean, there is always Mold in places you can't get and you'll have health issues if you spent to much time in it, at a minimum all carpet and headliner should be replaced. Just cleaned out my wife's car that had a leak for a month under the driver's matt and I removed the carpet, seats center console remover and trashed all soimd dreading since you would destroy it if you tried to clean it. I cleaned, dried the inside twice and pressure washed the Matt's and carpet and treated with a enzyme cleaner then extracted and fan dried it. Installed new sound deadening and put it back together. I also did the same thing to a friend's car that broke 2 5 gallon jugs of water and it flooded the floor and all the lower vents were submerged so they were removed and cleaned. It's alot of work to do this properly. I charged him 700 to do a full inside and outside detail, and that took a full 2 days.

    Great cleaning service but from technical perspective the insulation of the carpet under it is still a swamp, let alone the roof liner and every single plastic like the door trims and the dashboard needs to be removed and thoroughly cleaned inside out aswell as any passage on the car body that can be reached as the ozone doesn't help with MOLD SPORES, let alone the seats which are useless once they get damp in a moldy environment unless you remove the covers and let the foams sit under hot sunlight for a week after cleaned.
    I can understand the owner needed a quick deep wash and those guys are unable to do anything more for the agreed price or intervene with the car anything more, but this car and any that gets water damage are BIOHAZARD.

One look and they'd all say it cannot be cleaned, get rid of it, period.

    I had a similar problem with my GS300. When I came back from a 3 week holiday I discovered the drivers side was full of water, the pipe leading from the roof had come apart and it was draining into the footwell. Cleaning the carpet is only part of the cure, underneath is a lot of thick sound deadening that also needs soaks up the water, the carpet needs to be lifted to do a proper job.

      I can see how shoes on the bed are an issue, but if you keep your socks clean i would imagine theyre better than your bare feet.
      Your feet have oils and skin cells that can build up on the bed and leave it smellig like feet. But if your socks are clean then its just fabric on fabric.

    mold releases spores which can get into places that are hard to reach, they should've still ripped the carpet out even if it was stapled, or its just gonna regrow in the car. never saw them ripping out the plastic moldings around the doors which can house alot of mold underneath. Plus doing under the carpet and the floor pan. How I see it, is this guy just did what you would see, but not completely get rid of the mold. And yes I know he ran ozone, but with breaking apart the mold, it can release new spores that where not easily accessible too with the ozone. especially with him using the Tornador, he is just pushing mold deeper into the carpet as well. honestly they should've stripped everything out and pressure washed all the plastic and carpet, then extracted the carpet and let it dry.

    I can’t help but think that the floorpan would be totally rusted. If not it will be.

    What about the mold behind the door panels and dash and so on? I wouldn't feel good riding that car with windows closed while there is most likely crap behind the panels.
