Car Detailer - vomit, gasoline in carpet?

Office buddy just texted me - his son tossed his cookies in their 2014 Grand Cherokee. In addition to the steam clean this job's going to require, he'd like to have a full interior cleaning done as well.

 

I know Tim's the man for exterior detailing, but any recommendations on a person or shop?

 

***Also, I used my wife's Odyssey to carry my in-law's snowblower during the last snowstorm (I hadn't bought the new truck that weekend), and gas leaked out of it onto the carpet. I did a spot-treat but it still reeks of gasoline. I could use a good cleaning for our van as well....though my request is not as involved as my friends! :)

Good luck. I puked in my ex-wife's car and even after 2 professional cleanings (steaming, etc.), the car still smelled like puke when it got hot in the summer.

 

I used an ozone generator as well, and although it helped, see above- still smelled like puke when it got hot out.

for the gasoline: hit it with white vinegar and water (50/50 mix) and then baking soda/water mix. Make sure you soak up as much of the vinegar/water mix before applying the baking soda - otherwise you'll have a big foamy mess. If you really want to get fancy you can sub club soda for water.
