ABANDONED MOUSE INFESTED BARN FIND First Detail in Years Audi! Satisfying Car Detailing Restoration

Just wanted to address some of your concerns :)
So with this detail, we ONLY had that one day to do it, and we worked over 10 hours on what you see in the video so we could surprise the owner with it. There is a great chance there are more mice in the car that we didn’t get to but we spoke to the owner off camera after and she/John (the owner of the shop) understand that there is a lot more work to be done with the Audi, i.e disassembling the interior and pulling out the carpets. Our goal and what they were looking for, was for us to at least get the exterior looking good again, and cleaning the interior with the time allotted to us so it would be easier to continue working on. Obviously no one knew there would be mice nests in the car as it has been sitting since 2004 and was not checked for anything until we detailed it. As for the baby mouse, we did not kill it. We set it outside, under a tree in shade, near the building in hopes the mother would find it. Hope you guys enjoyed the video for what it is at least!

Thats Not good Job.. its a wash Like 90dollars Thats Not Detailing

Guys, great job but with any mouse situation you really need to strip the interior completely, those damn mice get everywhere and cause serious damage to the car, the health risk is too high by leaving the interior in place

Why would you throw away Snap-On tools and money ?

Awww their so cute 🥺

I’d so grab those mice and take care of them

Love it. Kool

I suspect either the seller's claim they never drove it was a lie or this woman's Mom sold the filthiest car ever.

One baby mouse could mean more baby mice The one in the back window was probably it's mom

fantastic job brilliant job you guys do awesome work the best detailing guys ever keep it up guys

Two things about the rodent infestation:
1) What about underneath the dash behind the instrument cluster ? Would there be more nests there ?
2) Got a mouse ? Get a cat !

Sorry for taking up so much comment space but even the interior cleaning brought back memories of crawling through the car. Even cleaning those silly tiny interior door latches. And yes I cried right along with her. You did an outstanding job.

Re: the wee mouse. There are really only two choices - the one you chose (the little guy wouldn't live long) or euthanasia (unpleasant for you but more merciful if done quickly.) Either way, kinda miserable for all concerned.

So excited to see this 1985 Audi Coupe!! Mine was gold but how I loved that car. I loved to look at it, even more I loved to drive it. Memories! Riding the 401! Thanks for loving this beauty.

When you have rodents in the car for years urinating everywhere, how do you not pull the carpets? That's disgusting.

Anything think that there might be a giant nest in the motor that was not cleaned out?

I wish I had my first car back! It was a 1984 Plymouth Turismo 2.2, black with charcoal interior. I had the old school louvers over the back window. It was nothing special, but I loved it and I washed and detailed that thing a lot!

I would have never guessed she was 38.

What did you use to buff the car

Good Job with that nice looking car. I had one of those once, a black 1983 Audi gt coupe drove it from sweden through germany and Austria on a vacation 1991 with my girlfriend then ( wife now) great memories 😊loved that car and great sounding 5 cylinder.

As an FYI: Next time you run into a baby mouse and nest situation, put the nest and mouse in a box and, as you did, leave it in the wild under a tree...:)

Bet there was more baby mice up in the dash..mice usually have a litters of 4 or more.

Ya kill them there rodents

"No animals were harmed during the making of this video." Except for the baby mouse you left to die alone in the field. I'm not watching any more of your videos.

That was a deer mouse and they carry flesh eating disease. Could be wrong on the call but I don't think I am.

Pet shop or snake food

Americaner verdienen nichts anderes als Traband und Zaporozec, und Skoda. Ihr liebt eure Autos gar nicht!!!!😢😢😒😒 Katastrophal

they make a hose/bag you can put on the ground to control the water.

Call your animal control and they could tell you what to do if you run into that again.

My first brand new car was this car this year but in white it was a company car that I bought when I was made redundant and that was 35 years ago now and I still regret selling it! Well ahead if its time Audi never made a better car!

Definitely need a part 2 (update of the car)

Another masterpeace of a job!

This solution for the mice might seem strange, but I would try to rebuild the nest and leave it somewhere dry so the mother could find it.

Have you ever had to remove mold from a fabric headliner?

stop witih the OMG expression its so low class only showing the lack of one's vocabulary

I bought a 2001 Cobra and it arrived with rats. This video gave me some very bad memories but loved the outcome!

For the future, mice typically like to hole up in the dashboard, air intake boxes, sometimes exhaust if it never runs, and most commonly, the space under the side skirts. So you got two of them, but where there are 2, there are typically 6-8 more nearby.

Ozone the car first.

Why are tires always first?

🙂👍👍👍

Headlights look too foggy and the wheels look aged.

Hope nobody leaves food in the car to run to the store, mice will come take a piece

No engine bay cleaning?

Just cosmetically cleaning up a filthy rotten car that doesn't run, probably has bad brakes and outdated tires does not impress me. What it amounts to is polishing a turd!

Call pet shops - offer mice for snake meals. That's nature.

Good job 🌹

keepo it in a shoe box or st ,, til its stronger then release it . feed it a lilbit a few days only

Job well done Guy...I know it not easy to clean Rat infested car. But I do appreciate so far what you guys are doing...it a tough work...to get rid of the stain, urine and poo...it really no easy task...

For the baby mouse, unfortunately, it likely didn't survive being left in the grass. If this situation every happens again, check facebook for local wild animal rescues. They are everywhere and I've found that they will often come to you to get babies like this and give them a chance at survival.

Love the outcome of this detail!

You had one baby mice they don't come in ones normally six plus so more behind the dash , probably fan housing and cabin filter if any.air filter , pipework and exhaust system on non running car.

keep it as pet
