Browsing trough 1g Tl pics, can be like porn for Acura enthusiasts lol am i right or not?. Especially when we see a nice drop, kleen rims etc. The list can go on and on but it would be tooo long.Ive seen MANY pics of 1g tl's with one mod or another.

But people, since we don't really have a wash and wax forum for our Tl's. Can we have a discussion on something a little different. I'm talking about Our interior on our 1g's. How do "YOU" clean your interior, what are the best sprays, solutions etc?. We've seen it almost all with the exterior of the Tl. Now lets do interior.

FACT: The female mind and eyes are always drawn into a nice looking exterior of a car in this case our Tls. But, when a girl sees leather seats, i know for a fact that shes gonna be dripping wett lol. All of you know that as you drive down the blvd.with your hids, rims, drop or whatever, YOU get stares. But if we talk about interior is yours clean,dirty, well maintanied enough to strike a good first impression? Let us know........

Vacuum + 303 + Invisible glass = Clean

 

I use a vacuum and Armor-All.

 

i use alll BLACK MAJIC... lol.. and a vacum and a little broom to get in thoes hard to reach places..lol... that is true that is what gurls notice the most is the interior.. lol.... my interior is always clean at all times.. lol.. never know when u might have a hot chick in the car... lol....

 

dirty & pulled out. I'm in the process of putting my TL back together. Does anyone know where i can get molded carpet for my 1G TL?

 

oem acura parts. com i think.. lol...

 

thanx, i found some other parts i needed there, but no carpet

 

Go to a salvage yard.

You can probably get it for like $30.

 

i actually use a lot of stuff...only because its free though. i love cleaning my interior the most. feels so luxurious after its all done and clean.

1. vacuum whole interior
2. wash floor mats then proceed to spray meguiars odor remover
3. meguiars quik interior detailer for all interior panels and trims
4. meguiars interior protectant wipes
5. meguiars window cleaner for windows and chrome trims
6. meguiars aloe vera leather cleaner
7. meguiars foam leather shampoo and conditioner

 

I'm a lazy ass so I get that done at a professional place.

 

Unless you pay a lot of money (relatively) no one is going to do it as good as you can, because you care about your car and some dude who gets paid 10 bucks an hour doesn't give two shits.

 

hahahaha..TRUE!....and funny 2

 

I paid good money for my baby's care, over 100. There is no way any of you DIY can match their level of workmanship.

 

HA! It doesn't take a university degree to clean/detail a car's interior. I'd rather save myself one bill and spend 3 hours doing it myself. I can guarantee that I'd do as good of a job as anyone. When it comes to the exterior it's a different story since you actually have to know what you are doing, but with enough practice and patience you can do just as good of a job as any pro detailer it might just take way more time though.

 

Pics to prove it?

 

I'll take some tomorrow if you want. I spent maybe an hour yesterday cleaning it. My carpets haven't been cleaned in ages and the drivers seat needs to be conditioned, but the interior still looks real clean.

 

Sorry but in 3 hours I can make money than the detailing bill! The other thing to consider is the material and the products you have to buy and store. I seriously doubt anyone stock the latest and most expensive of these.

 

Well obviously no one takes time off of work to go and detail a car. I do it when I have some time and when I feel like it, just like before yesterday. Besides I get a sense of satisfaction every time I'm done cleaning my car - it might not be the case for you.
The products are not that hard to find, if you know where to look. If you check the Wash & Wax section here on AZ you'll find a lot of info from very knowledgeable people. You should try cleaning your car yourself one day if you've never done it, you might end up liking it.
