    Yeah chamois been around for awhile ....because it works. It works the best in my opinion. That one i told you is water sprite sm arnold. Last for years and dries like a champ ...and has a ton of coverage. Which one does @ARamirez73 use?

    Same here. Now if doing full detail it will be longer. Dog hair is a bitch to get out of the back carpet and fuzzy part under the seats.

    Only exception is after hunting season. It's bad after hunting season. I don't clean until my deer season is over and it can get bad. Other wise I wipe up dust regularly and armor all once a week or so.

    I just use the shop vac. Works good enough, just time consuming. I'll be trying this brush though to see if it helps speed up the process.

    Usually takes me 45 minutes or so to detail the inside of my CM. Sometimes longer when my OCD kicks in and I break out the little brush for cleaning the vents. More often than not I'm the only one in my truck so it stays pretty clean. I'm a religious user of 303 protectant and multi surface cleaner. I also keep a swiffer duster and cloth in the glove box for a quick wipe down. I also use my compressor and air tip to power dust and Mothers Showtime detail spray for cleaning the windows.
    I'm also the ONLY one allowed to eat in my truck. If you could see the interior of my wife's and daughters vehicles you'd know why lol.

    She's a greyhound/lab (I think) mix.
    She sheds an entire dog's worth of fur in a day much like your husky probably does. Lol

    LOL... I know. My wife says I have a problem. But the swiffer works great. It gets into all of the nooks and crannies, the gauges, cupholders. I like to keep my windows cracked in the summer and I work and park near railroad tracks so I'm constantly chasing dust.

    8 hours???? :eek: Holy cow. I rarely spend more than 8 minutes to wipe down my interior with a wet rag. And that’s after a wheeling trip with the entire interior coated in dirt. I envy your patience.

    Yeah, 4 hrs yesterday and 4 today. The previous owner didn't take the time to 'baby' the beast. And that blasted dried coffee was driving me nuts!! Believe me, once I'm through with it. And I start keeping it up, it won't take me long.

    Oh, no! Letting dust in on purpose? All day long? I just couldn't. No, no. Hey, it's your baby, you do what you want. But, you tripped me up with that Swiffer. Lol
