first car i ever cleaned doing detail was a fell detail,
subaru outback.
looked nasty as fuck. smelled twice as bad.
basically, the owners dog lived in the back of this thing. it was covered in shit and piss. not to mention the fur, OH GOD THE FUR!
had to take out every single piece of carpeted interior that would come out, sprayed it with our strongest degreaser/all purpose cleaner.
took a scrub brush and made one pass over a cargo piece, and had to take about an hour to recover from the smell that it released.
disgusting. took me two whole fucking days.
second would be having to clean the floor drains in the detail shop, everything got thrown in these, and they were overflowing. had to pull up the grates and bucket the water out, then use a shovel and wheel barrow to get the shit out of the bottom. then a strong hose to clean the pipes.
i threw away every piece of clothing i was wearing that night. shoes and all.
absolutely revolting, the smells, the things we found, the texture of the water, and for those horrible horrible small splashes that caused some to get in my face.
