Detailed the Interior

[04sleeper]

Ok, since I was finished with the front and rear wheel wells, I decided to tackle the interior.

It was pretty clean to begin with but needed to be done none the less.

Here is he what it looked like before I started.

Here are my weapons to clean with.

Sears 5.25 HP shop vac with pro hose and car attachment.

Pinnacle Interior Care Kit. Leather and Vinyl Cleaner, Vinyl and Rubber Protectant, and Leather Conditioner.

For the glass I used Stoners Invisible Glass and a glass microfiber towel.

Here are the front seats after cleaning and conditioner before buffing.

Here are the back seats after cleaning and conditioner before buffing.

Carpet vacuumed.

Dash and door panels after protectant.

While I was at it I conditioned the door seals with the vinyl rubber protectant.

I also waxed the door jams with Carnauba Moose Wax.

I also waxed the bottom of the door as well and conditioned the seal with protectant.

All in all another productive day.

Next up the paint!

Is Ford to blame for the console not matching the dash?

Yes they are.

They appear to match up to the naked eye, but use a camera with the flash on & it looks like that. I believe mine did look like that when I used flash on my interior pics....

Mine too. Wierd the glove box dont match eaither

So the dash is a tad lighter.
Hey Kevin, was yours one of the last produced? I had heard rumors (few years ago) that the last couple hundred cars got older parts bin trim pieces cause they ran out. IDK if there was any truth behind that

$20 says Kevin has it matching before the years out

Thats why I never use Flash on my interior pics because it makes it look like that & it makes Ford's cheap leather look like crap. Look at this pic of my old 97 Cobra interior. It appears to be the opposite of Kevin's, the dash is darker, & the console & passenger airbag are lighter. The ash tray door looks even lighter than the console... Like i said though, it didnt look like this in person....

 

[LaserSVT]

^ Wow, never noticed that before. I dont know if I have ever use my flash on the interior of mine. I will have to check it out when she comes home

Kevin. Its 67* out and clear today. You should be out making it dirty

 

[EPIK]

I went outside & took a pic of my console with the flash, & although its not as drastic as Kevin's, u can tell its not an exact match... YES I KNOW ITS DIRTY!!!

Without the flash though, it appears to match....

i wish i had the kind of time on my hands that you do...

 

[04sleeper]

I think tha flash didn't help much. It's not nearly as noticable when you just look at it.

Eh, that's why it's a Ford. Gives it character.

Very, very clean...

I did email them a few pics of mine a few months ago but never got a response.

I guess it's not good enough for their mag.

Man if it wasn't 12 degrees out I would definately hit the garage and perform a in depth detail with good products like you have been doing.
