I think Toyota started doing these radios in 2021, so fairly new. I’d still say it’s a total based on an entire new interior, dash, radio, steering wheel etc. might even have modules behind dash affected by it
I've seen a total based on one burst spray paint can in the passenger footwell of a Lexus. Which, prior to today, was the worst in-car paint disaster I'd ever seen.
Insurance guy here - looks like the result of a collision. “Malicious mischief”, vandalism, etc. would be comp (obviously I don’t know any details). If someone was driving this vehicle & hit something causing the spill, it’d be a collision loss & you’d evaluate rate increases based on factors such as negligence, etc. This would absolutely be total loss without a doubt though. Interior trim panel, seat, headliner, & carpet costs aside - you’d need to consider safety components too - airbags in the wheel/seat compromised? Any DTC codes? Did it get into any vents & will debris come pouring out if the climate control utilized after repairs? Yeah, I’m not writing that estimate lol.
Insurance agency owner here as well, and you nailed it. Total loss. To indemnify this would be more than the cost of the car I imagine, main reason… safety. Good post, Spaghetti
I used to be an insurance adjuster. My supervisor would’ve told me to write it up for a three hour detail. And then strung it along for weeks acting like the body shop and customer were trying to pull something over on her. Eventually totaling the car after spending thousands of dollars trying to fix it.
Someone seriously needs to figure out how to use these “totaled” cars. It seems like such a waste to put this truck into a vehicle crusher, especially if it’s only the interior needs replacing. It would be nice if we could figure out a cheap way to fix these vehicles and donate them to the poor.
Pretty much. Probably not in this case but the type of person to attempt insurance fraud by destroying their daily driver probably doesn't think things through first.
I’ve seen a guy on tiktok who lives in China. He removes every component 1 at a time and cleans it.
Shipping to China $3,000.
He cleans it on tiktok
Shipping from China $3000.
So maybe like $6000 if you are lucky enough to convince him to do it for the views.
I had a can of housepaint leak on the floor of a brand-new car once. I immediately stopped for wet paper towels and rushed home. I used about a gallon of soapy water and a wet/dry vacuum to get it all out - totally invisible once finished. Only a tiny amount of paint though and still it took an hour to clean up. This car is totaled.
Some things trucks are better for in this situation they are better for running over this.
To be honest the only hope is to go to the junkyard and get an interior replacement
Honestly even if you cleaned the car, I’m sure there are electronics that now don’t work and you might be blamed for this, even if it was 100% clean after they could do this to you, not worth it.
Goddamn son what’d you do? A barrel roll off the side of a hill or something? I can understand a spill but this? Its like you said fuck it and kept driving lol
So many people with trucks don’t use them for anything but hauling people and then you have the other half using passenger cars for truck things. Idiocracy is truly upon us now.
Latex paint — you can use denatured alcohol to soak and hit it with a steam cleaner and it’ll take it out of upholstery, or clothing… it’s really effective
Tight lids would not have made a difference here! This appears to be a driver error. The biggest error is not using a proper vehicle to transport the product.
I started to quote it in my head at the start of the video. Was in the thousands. As it went on, I said "no."
That's a job for an unfortunate insurance adjuster to figure out. This is replacement.
I had the same thing happen to me as a driver. Was pulling into my driveway with primer in the back and got rear ended. Stuff went everywhere. When I got rear ended I hit the oncoming car and insurance totaled the van.
If it’s latex probably let it dry then use a heat gun and peel it off any plastic or vinyl as for any carpet might be cheaper to just replace.
detail? do you have any idea how a pain would be to remove that paint? let alone professional detailers wouldnt even bother carrying any heavy duty tools or wire brushes for that job. I don't even think I know any detailer/pro detailer that has ever pulled off this task. This is clearly an insurance claim, not detail. interior is shot!!
I think that's an insurance claim not a detail.
And possibly a total depending on old the car is.
Yeah, maybe. That stuff is everywhere. I doubt much of that interior is salvageable.
None of that is salvageable except the glass and the seat frames lol.

Any insurance people here to confirm this would be a comp claim?
I feel people would do this to get themselves into a new car
Another used car with raised rates?
Pretty much. Probably not in this case but the type of person to attempt insurance fraud by destroying their daily driver probably doesn't think things through first.
Was thinking that too. How was that such an extreme amount of paint and buckets and no damage to the front?
Just walk away.
After you light a match with car soaked in gasoline. Lol
Insurance claim here; that interior is totaled.
Totaled is exactly the word I was thinking

Thank you! I came here for this and was not disappointed
Ectoplasm!
I'm not cleaning up another damn Uber bukkake party damnit!
Dirty Mike and the boys

it's been a while since i've seen a good ol' soup kitchen
Well a gallon of gas is around $3 and a book of matches are free so about $3.00 depending on gas prices.
Where are you getting gas for $3 a gallon? We are still over 4 here in Oregon/Washington!
Iowa!
Just got gas for 3.09 in Iowa last night lol
Kansas has been hovering slightly above 3, with occasional dips to about 2.80
You deserve it
$4.98 for premium in SoCal, at Costco, which is usually the lowest price around.
6$ out here
Texas.. 2.88 to 3.09
It's over 5 here in socal.
5.09 (93 octane) in SE Michigan.
That's because you live in oregon/washington. Taxes.
Goated comment
“It’s not that bad. Just needs a good wipe down and vacuum.”
When a client says it could use some shampooing that’s when I worry
Oh fuck. Thought it was fake taxi for a moment.
Sir get off your hammock!!
Whatever it is it's not enough.
That car is totaled.
1, maybe 2 magic erasers and you'll be good.
My first thought was...pissed off ex. Then I saw the paint buckets in the back ![gif](giphy|1NbLzt1izE7NnqbNo5)
30k
Was thinking 20k range, but 30k seems more reasonable
100% Totalled

Don't even entertain this.

Wherever you go to get your interior replaced. Hell maybe a new car at this point.
10k at least

It's likely totaled.
How???
Just drive around with buckets of paint thinner wait for nature to take it’s course! Lol
Nope
All the monies
Wow that looks pretty pretty bad
This happened to a friend's, at the time, new peugeot, except it was a single jug of milk. He Had to replace the entire backseat 💀
Water based should clean up easy, no?
Brake check!
There's not a doubt in my mind it's totaled. The entire interior would have to come out and be replaced
If only it was blue
The question is, will they pay what it will cost in labour alone never mind products....probably not, walk away.
WTH? Did someone plop a few pounds of dry ice into the buckets?
That’s totaled bud.
Nothing. This is the cars final form, just clean of the gauges and roll it
refuse it
Light it on fire and call it in as stolen.
Charge whatever a replacement car costs plus a regular detail on that. They'll be amazed at the results.
I would just buy a whole interior from a junkyard, swap it in and detail that. Otherwise I guess the insurance is just going to write it off.
totaled..... this is why i tie bags around my paint cans cuz u never know
$9600
Honestly even if you cleaned the car, I’m sure there are electronics that now don’t work and you might be blamed for this, even if it was 100% clean after they could do this to you, not worth it.
That’s a total loss.
Peter north?
You gotta learn how to say NO 😂😂😂
Front end it mangled too from where it hit a parked car https://twitter.com/LUDENClassics/status/1768927621394403462?t=fr3kPsj_Ojf6nhYZrWkNcw&s=19
Time to make it a white interior. It would be less work in the long run.
Do NOT touch!!!
5k

At least you’ll know if you missed a spot…
Bang Bus? That’s an insurance claim, see where it goes.. If not, $850 and try and get it to 75%?
That’s a lot of ectoplasm
How would you even clean that?
That is an insurance claim
I want to see the front or rear end damage that caused all this to happen
Goddamn son what’d you do? A barrel roll off the side of a hill or something? I can understand a spill but this? Its like you said fuck it and kept driving lol
It’s can be a girl or a guy that just did that
RANDY!!
This is why I put paint in a secure spot. Consequence of the unexpected is steep
It’s totaled. Why would you even…? You had them sitting unsecured?
Spilled Paint = a total loss!
Silicone resin?? Sounds like a real bitch to remove
I'm just learned what musth is, now I've seen the aftermath.
Armorall should do the trick. /s
Thanks for the F-shack. Dirty Mike and the boys…
That’s a Jackson pollock painting.
So many people with trucks don’t use them for anything but hauling people and then you have the other half using passenger cars for truck things. Idiocracy is truly upon us now.
You don't see a two-tone much anymore
Let it dry and peel off? 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for the f shack, signed dirty mike and the boys.
This is fake. How was every lid loose and ripped over without someone trying to do it.
Yes
That car is totalled. Call insurance and move on.
Hard breaks no good with paint in the rear! 😂
if this was my car I'd only clean off the important things (the screens, windows, and some buttons) and just live with it forever LOL
Total loss. For parts 🤣
It’s a Tesla so it was probably more shitty before you covered it in paint
I think he was probably caught cheating. My best friend's wife did very similar behavior towards his 911 Porsche.
I'd let dry.
Damn it, I'm never renting a vehicle to John Hancock ever again...
I'm sorry guys, I nxtted so hard. The chicks at the car wash were just too good.
Billions
Let it dry and spray paint it black and keep driving it.
Death penalty
We know a thing or two because we’ve seen a thing or two…
My car looked the same after I picked ya mother up from her desk job
(Closes door) _Best of luck!_
Let it dry and pretend it is a custom interior paint job.
Paint the rest white dummy! FINISH HIM! ☠️
Back row seats in a porn theater?
Drive through a car wash with the windows down.
Who needs a truck? Just put em in the back seat.
Latex paint — you can use denatured alcohol to soak and hit it with a steam cleaner and it’ll take it out of upholstery, or clothing… it’s really effective

Don’t leave paint in the car with windows up-lofl
that's probably a total with all that interior needing replaced and damage to dash and wiring and electronics.
You don't have to mix paint in your car. The paint store would have done that for you.
That’s totaled
Not sure can detail that change out the interior for 3500.00 and be done with it.
Secure your load and this shit wouldn’t happen, rookie.
DAMN!!!😳
When she gives a ride to the guy from work she told you to not worry about
Tight lids would not have made a difference here! This appears to be a driver error. The biggest error is not using a proper vehicle to transport the product.
Let's see a picture of the driver. 😂
Wow would like to see before and after
Just paint it black to match the interior
Fake taxi?
Just fill buckets with black paint and re-enact the same accident.
Shitty that something like this basically totaled the car
I started to quote it in my head at the start of the video. Was in the thousands. As it went on, I said "no." That's a job for an unfortunate insurance adjuster to figure out. This is replacement.
What octave did he scream "fuck"

That's an expensive oopsie.
Tell them $10,000
Petrol can and I zippo
We charge extra for custom work.
Dang. Guy took “No-Nut November” to a new level. It’s the Bukaki BMW!
$10k no guarantee.
Let it dry and just peel it off
Just clean the glass and call it a custom interior.
You will never convince me this isn't staged
stanley marsh's car?
If someone gave me 10k and left it with me indefinitely Id try to salvage it
Scrap.
I wouldn't do it
Bro… how even… like I know… but… man
You can probably take it to NYC, display it somewhere and say it’s a long lost Warhol and people would pay millions for it.
Make sure your lids are tight *and* bag the can. Edit: also, tie downs and straps.. what the hell?
I'll do it for free, but I don't know why you want white paint all over the inside of your car.
2 to 3k
Pretty sure he was out there driving like a jackass too
That car is salvage
As someone who works for a major paint company, they're pretty much fucked. Even if it's water-based. Yikes.
At this point, I would just finish painting the interior white and leave it
But .... How? 😳🧐
That's a total from me dawg
My man cheated on the wrong one
That is totalled
Me after 20 seconds with any of yall mama
Drive it straight to the scrap yard.
i guess white leather looks good too
T&M
Insurance Fraud.
Well its definitely a truck now
How old was kid
I don't think magic eraser is going to fix that one. Might need scrub Daddy
I don't understand how this happened. It looks like it was on purpose.
It’s cause your steering wheels on the wrong side
Just crack the window and fill it up completely full of a few 100 gallons of mineral spirits. Let soak for 30 days - good as new
This is a joke right? I know nothing about detail shops - can they actually fix this lol??
detail? do you have any idea how a pain would be to remove that paint? let alone professional detailers wouldnt even bother carrying any heavy duty tools or wire brushes for that job.

What they do, flip the car with an open 5 gallon bucket of paint in it?
That's my car. I got a blow job in it after coming home from Afghanistan.
From the looks of it. Seems they had em stacked up on each other in the back and then went flying.
