The car cleaning experts claim their service leaves your car truly spotless, not just with a superficial shine.
The video shows the professionals meticulously digging into every corner of the van to remove the dirt.
In the footage the cleaner disassembles parts and accesses every nook and cranny where dirt can accumulate.
The deep cleaning service focuses on the seats, floor, pedals, dashboard, gear stick, doors and steering wheel.
They can be seen using a variety of products and vacuum cleaners as well as wiping down the van with a cloth.
The clip, posted to social media at the end of June, has now amassed more than 26,000 likes.
And viewers were quick to express their satisfaction with the post.
One quipped: “This is better viewing than just about anything currently on Netflix.”
Another said: “Anyone else need a cigarette after watching that?? Soooo satisfying.”
A third wrote: “You should have charged a lot more than £300 for that. Disgusting.”
A final person commented: “Deserve a medal for taking that on!”
Beyond aesthetics, car detailing offers benefits that go beyond just appearance.
A clean interior free of dirt and bacteria helps maintain a healthy vehicle environment, preventing allergies and illnesses.
Plus, a well-maintained car better retains its resale value.

However you could have a go at doing it yourself for pennies.
Ikea sell tooth picks and cotton buds for 1p, while a kitchen brush goes at 50p.
But a another car expert has warned drivers how a popular cleaning hack could actually be costing them hundreds.
A YouTuber and professional car detailer has shared with his viewers why they shouldn’t use traditional car wax.
In the video, the car expert said that while he does enjoy using standard waxing products he often finds “drawbacks”.
These products don’t offer long-term protection with most lasting up to three months on average.
It comes after a car cleaning expert warned motorists not to use a popular household product if they don’t want to risk damaging their car.
And this motoring whizz has revealed a £1.25 B&Q essential that makes washing your vehicle a breeze.

Five budget-friendly ways to clean up your motor
STEER into the week with a car that looks and feels like new.
You can skip the expensive valet service and instead follow these cleaning tips from John Charnock, CEO of StressFreeCarRental.com.
CLEAN UP: Start the cleaning process with a blank canvas by emptying the car, including removing rubbish and all the mats.
Those who own a leaf blower should use it to force off loose dirt.
Then vacuum the entire interior including compartments, boot and seats.
Pay particular attention to areas such as the footwells, getting into the crevices, as they collect more dirt.
SIT PRETTY: For fabric seats, spray on a carpet or upholstery cleaner to tackle stains. Let it sit, depending on instructions, then rinse with a cloth and blot dry.
Leather seats can be cleaned with a mild soap or leather cleaner, which should be worked in using a microfibre cloth. Rinse until the cleaner is removed, then buff with another microfibre cloth.
SHINE ON: Use a budget glass cleaner to prevent streaks and a microfibre cloth to clean the inside and outside of the windows and windscreen.
Follow by buffing with another microfibre cloth soaked in water.
Use a microfibre cloth on surfaces such as the dashboard and centre console for a shinier finish.
WASH ‘N’ GO: Mix warm water with car shampoo and work from top to bottom using a sponge. Pay attention to areas such as the hinges and number plates, rubbing shampoo foam with a soft brush before rinsing off.
For wheels, use washing-up liquid and hot water and a soft sponge, then go in, using circular motions, with a wheel brush to tackle stubborn dirt and hard-to-reach areas in the alloys.
BUFF IT IN: Once the car has completely dried, apply wax in small sections and thin layers on to the paintwork of the car, working in circular motions.
Wait 20 minutes before buffing it dry with a microfibre cloth. The wax polish should have cleared the coat and illuminated the colour and shine of the car.
