How NOT to Clean Auto Upholstery

March 22, 2012 By Nadeem Muaddi

If you’ve ever wondered what’s the quickest way to ruin a car’s interior, wonder no more. This old man did the unthinkable. He used a power washer to clean his car’s upholstery – leaving its seats, door panels, carpet and dashboard wet and ruined.  Not surprisingly, we’re inducting him into The Hog Ring‘s “Hall of Shame“.

Question: What’s the dumbest thing you’ve ever seen a customer do to his/her car interior?
