  • A unboxing , demo and review on the Karcher SC3 steam cleaner. this small yet reasonably powerful steam cleaner is a great affordable machine for doing jobs around the house and of course car detailing. It can be used in many different ways around your vehicle as you will see in the video. FUll unboxing, setup, how to use and demo as well as my thoughts on this steam cleaner. I also compare this machine to its little brother the Karcher SC2 and explain the differences and why I chose this over the SC2

      Well both of those models are basically the same so I would say no point in getting the sc3 when you have the easy fix model. But yes this is a decent entry level steamer for light to medium jobs.

    Hi mate, great video. Is cleaning seats and carpet with a steamer enough for a deep clean? Would you not need vacuum power combined with the steam to draw the dirt and grime out?

    • @autoexquisitedetail7706
      @autoexquisitedetail7706  Před 2 lety

      Thanks...I would say the best way to clean carpets and seats is with a spray extractor you can see my full review on one here czcams.com/video/zL7b8xnEJPg/video.html and have a look at my interior detail videosczcams.com/video/rXIZXdakk3w/video.html
      You can always use steam to help but the spray extractor seems to work just fine 👍

    • @dave9547
      @dave9547 Před 2 lety

      Just watched the linked videos. Quick few questions, if looking to use the steam cleaner to clean the interior, is it best(needed) to use the extractor afterward to extract as much dirt as possible? Or is it possible to just use just the steam cleaner and micro fibre towels?
      Also, do you use the steam cleaner on the exterior as well? Seems to very time efficient from what I've seen.
      Just asking as I'm in Australia and doing very basic and cheap cleans for a car share company. I'm getting offered work with other businesses to regularly clean their fleets but want to expand the scope of what I offer while keeping the process as simple, quick, competitive(price wise) and portable (I'll be in car parks and tighter spaces often) as possible.
      Cheers, again mate. Good channel👍

    • @autoexquisitedetail7706
      @autoexquisitedetail7706  Před 2 lety +1

      The steam cleaner is normally used for leather and harder surfaces on the interior. Steaming carpets and cloth seats and following with microfibre will never get the same amount of dirt out as an extractor. I would say the extractor is a more useful tool for cloth and carpet and thats it no need for steaming at all on those surfaces. Leather and hard surfaces don't really need steam if you have a cleaner but it helps get a deeper clean for a detailing level and of course makes cleaning with no cleaners easier. Basically both are needed for their own job you can't really have one and use it for everything unfortunately
      For steaming the exterior I generally only use it in the engine bay other than that it's all interior
      If you are doing a detailing buisness i would say have both machines in your arsenal cause they will be useful in differnt cases and help in the long run.

  • @ludovicoriccardonocco5007

    Hi there, great video. I need to steam clean carpets regularly to control my dust mite allergy. However, I also need to steam my shirts for work but did not want to buy a separate machine for space reasons (I have a very small room). So, do you think I could steam garments using the upholstery nozzles of this machine? This way when I bring out my steam cleaner, I can do my carpets / mattress / and work shirts at once just by switching between the accessories and/or the temperature setting. In that case, how would I control the temperature for clothes so I do not ruin them? thank you :)

    • @autoexquisitedetail7706
      @autoexquisitedetail7706  Před 2 lety

      Thank you...so I obviously haven't tried it as an iron and I wouldn't recommend it just cause its not designed for the purpose like the steam could be too strong possibly for clothes. As for temperature it can't be controlled but steam flow has a high and low setting

      I use to spray it in with very hot water.

      Steam generally is said to kill germs and viruses but the product doesn't specifically say so. I can't guarantee this as a disinfecting method you'd have to externally research on steam more.
