Cleaning a VANDALIZED $125,000 Cadillac Escalade!

if you woke up and discovered your vehicle looked like this how would you react the owner of this Escalade nearly lost his mind when he saw his vehicle and is now making it his life's mission to find out who's responsible I'd be worried if I was them [Music] hey what's going on guys and welcome back to the channel now today I'll be working on this 2022 Cadillac Escalade that unfortunately was the recent victim of some vandalism as you guys can see and it looks like the perpetrators managed to get mud on nearly every single inch of the vehicle so stay tuned while they get this mess cleaned up and make it look brand new again all right guys well as I get to work removing all of this dirt I can't help but be reminded of a time when I was 16 years old and I had my car parked at high school for the day only to come back to it after school to find that someone had spray painted all over it needless to say I was absolutely gutted now thankfully it must have been raining when they did it because the paint didn't really Bond very well and it washed off fairly easily but I still remember that feeling very well and I very much feel for the owner of this vehicle foreign [Music] [Music] thank you foreign [Music] moving to the back now and to expand a bit on the story here what the owner does know is that it doesn't appear to be a targeted attack as a few of his neighbors cars were hit too one other with dirt and a couple were hit with eggs which to be honest would have been worse as it can etch the clear coat if left on for too long but anyways he's been trying to track down video of whoever did it but he hasn't had a lot of luck one of his neighbors does have video of what appeared to be three kids walking down the street towards his house around 2 A.M but I guess the video quality wasn't great so there's unfortunately not a lot to go on thank you [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] okay while I move up to the front end I just wanted to let you know that this video and last week's as well can actually be watched in 4K resolution I decided to film these last couple in 4k just for the fun of it and I'm actually really curious to know how many of you are able to watch it in 4k meaning that you have a 4K capable TV or device so please let me know down in the comments if you can foreign [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] contamination on the paint while I was washing it I'll quickly use my iron remover all over the Escalade and as you can see there wasn't too much on it which really is to be expected with how new the vehicle is [Music] thank you [Music] foreign moving to the floor mats and I'll quickly grab whatever this is and the rest of the garbage and then get to work with the pressure washer APC and my green drill brush [Music] okay starting on the interior now with the vacuum and it looks like the full coverage floor mats did their job well as there isn't too much for debris that made its way underneath so vacuuming shouldn't be too bad today and in terms of the carpet quality in here some viewers have actually come up with a scale of velcro to escalate with velcro representing the cheap low quality stuff that I've seen in a lot of newer vehicles and Escalade representing the top of the scale as they have the highest quality carpet so believe it or not but this one comes in right at the top out of the hundreds and hundreds of vehicles that I've detailed Escalades of any year always have the best carpet that always makes it easy to get cleaned up foreign [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] I wanted to just remind you guys that if you've ever been curious about the tools that I use or how my studio is set up then be sure to check out the studio tour video right here on the main Channel or if you want to see the in-depth construction process of the entire building then check out the studio build series over on the detail geek 2. foreign [Music] [Music] thank you all right guys well I'm almost done vacuuming the vehicle but just before I do finish up I want to show you guys something that I thought was a little bit unusual and that's the owner of the speakers actually left the protective Plastics on the front uh front few screens here and you know while that's something I wouldn't personally do it's actually not as unusual as you might think I've detailed a few vehicles that were you know eight to ten years old it actually still had the manufacturer's plastic on the door sill plates um so you know I guess people do it kind of crazy to me but if you're like me though and happen to really enjoy getting to peel that plastic off unfortunately that's not going to be happening today the owners obviously left this on for quite a while now and uh I think the fact that it's still on here says that he probably wants to keep it on the vehicle for as long as he's got it anyway so I'm not going to be taking it off today but if you do enjoy peeling plastic off of things I think a lot of us do it's quite satisfying um I actually have an entire video of unwrapping and detailing a brand new 2023 Cadillac Escalade very very simple similar to this one so definitely check that one out it's from a couple of months ago it's up here on the main Channel but as for the plastic on this one it's unfortunately gonna have to stay [Music] all right well since the carpets were still perfect everywhere I can get to work on this interior trim now which doesn't happen to be all that dirty which means I'll just be using some APC sprayed into a damp microfiber towel to get things clean and will then wipe them down with a separate dry one another little hits [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign all right okay to keep this beautiful and plush leather looking and feeling new I'll be using my detail geek leather conditioner which is enriched with lanolin to nourish and protect the leather leaving it feeling soft and supple you can of course find this over on my website at detail geekautocare.com where worldwide shipping is available thank you [Music] thank you okay with some of my graphene spray coating in hand I'll get it applied with one of my dual plush microfiber towels and then removed with a separate one which will leave a super slick and glossy finish on this Escalade today [Music] [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] thank you [Music] thank you foreign [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] foreign guys well after eight hours of hard work the vandalism has been undone and this Escalade is looking better than brand new and I gotta say it is always a pleasure getting to work on Escalades they clean up really easily but anyways if you guys enjoyed this one make sure you smash that Thumbs Up Button And subscribe to
