Default detailed the trucks interior today (PIC HEAVY!!)

So I've only had my truck for a few weeks and it was NASTY. I felt dirty just getting in it. So I decided to fix that today with a pressure washer... Almost sent it to a detailer my job uses, but did this first and saved myself $100!

Took the seats out, sprayed with simple green and sprayed them down with the pressure washer w/ a 40 degree tip. Pretty sure the PO spilt dip spit on the passenger seat, made the whole cab smell funky (cant pick up girls like that!!)

Then I Covered the dash with some plastic and sprayed the floor with simple green as well. Pressure washed it and WOW! What a difference!!

Did you pull back the carpet on the floor before you pressure washed it?

Haha yeah it does. I had a few stains on the carpet of my 96 ranger.
It wasn't that hard, the seats dried in about 2-3 hours.

Nope. Washed, then used a shop vac to remove the water and used a towel to finish drying it.

Looks like a vinyl floor to me.

It does look better for sure.
