Product placement

Ford Explorer: ACTS - it is the vehicle being detailed. Removing it would change the video. Miami Beach Police Department: APPEARS - it is the agency the vehicle belongs to. Removing it would not change the video. Gamber-Johnson: ACTS - it is a mount/device inside the vehicle being cleaned. Removing it would not change the video.

Transcript

The officer looked at this explorer. It'll be dirty again tomorrow. He was probably wasn't the point. Patrol vehicles spend every day baking under the Florida sun, sitting in traffic and picking up road grime on every shift. The first thing I do was cover the entire SUV in foam and start breaking down everything the paint had collected over the past few weeks. I'm curious where in the world are you watching this from? Comment it below. Once the exterior was brought back to life, I moved inside. Carefully cleaning the dashboard, center console and every surface an officer touches throughout the day. The officer actually bet me this explorer would reach 25,000 followers. I told him this community appreciates seeing hardworking vehicles get the attention they deserve. Think he's wrong? Hit follow. Reach 25k. He sees how many people proved him wrong. When I hand the keys back, he walked around at once, smiled and said, 'Now, this is how a police vehicle should look.' That's the kind of reaction that makes every detail worth it.
