    Do you think I could get away with using 3 Labo products to cover all bases - Primus 2.0 for wash/pre-wash, Purifica for acid deep clean and Idrosave as a drying aid/following for a bit of protection.

    Idrosave is a really good rinse less wash but definitely requires a more precise approach than some other rinse less washes. You want to prespray and wash panel by panel being really careful not to over spray other panels. Basically, you don't want Idrosave to air dry anywhere on the car.

  • @MikeGDetailing
    @MikeGDetailing 3 дні тому

    Appreciate the shout out. Idrosave is definitely a panel by panel rinseless. The print is just so tiny on the bottle for the directions so it is easily missed. Good thing you caught those spots because the longer they sit the harder it is to wipe them off as the protection is very stout. Good video. What are your thoughts on that green sponge?

    • @improvedgarage

    If you check out Ultima wrench list, they also make an incredible interior dressing, in my opinion better than many of the others. For some reason, Ultima does not have a lot of advertising. I think it is under recognized and appreciated for its quality and value.

    Really enjoy your channel and the info is great. Thanks so much. One recommendation to try another new rinse less / waterless wash. It iscalled Ultima, I think a German company, and sold on Sky The Limit, Carpro based out of Florida. It is by far the best and lwaterless wash I’ve ever used. I have tried ONR, McKees, hero, lab, cosmetic, DIY detail, And Ultima is by far stand out the best! It really excels an interior light cleaning as well, great for bird bombs and pretty much anything else on the exterior. It does both a great Rinseless as well as waterless.

    @jeffc6832 4 дні тому

    This is definitely not a product that you want to let dry as it has a stout protective element. It is a wash and protect product. And a point of clarification: not all polymer rinseless washes are protective. Most (ONR, Absolute, etc) do not provide any protection.

  • @unreviewed

    Thanks for the video. I wish you had compared the brass OG to the Eley. That is one of the most important parts of the hose. But thanks for the update, I now know you have a blue hose.

  • @eurospec905
    @eurospec905 4 дні тому

    The polymer in Idrosave is very stout. They have since revised their instructions on use as mentioned below - best use is panel by panel. I think Labo wanted to over deliver on this product and may have missed the mark - this product is more of a wash and protect like yellow ONR for example. There was a lot of confusion prior to its release on this very topic as most people doing Rinseless want only a cleaner and leaving little to nothing behind. They have since released Preludio - alkaline and acidic which is sort of a prewash/3 pH system to be used in combination with Idrosave

    Hi, really nice video! I have a chance to get one mini clubman s 2017 with 72000 miles around 13000$. Should I get that? Is it a good deal? Should I be worried about the engine? No accident btw. Let me know, thanks a lot!

    • @improvedgarage
      @improvedgarage 4 дні тому

      Its hard to know without seeing it in person, but ill help as much as i can. a 2017 Clubman S is in general a good platform, it uses the B48 engine which has been used since 2014 in many various minis, this is in general a really reliable platform that doesn't have the issues the older N series engines (2008-2013) did in many of the minis, which created the reputation for "unreliability" I wouldn't be worried about the mileage as long as it has had regular maintenance. A 2017 for 13k feels right to me, my 2016 JCW 2 door is worth around 15k right now with 60k miles. If you like the car i feel its a good value for the money, and i would be able to recommend it. One thing you should note is these are BMWs, the clubman is basically a 2 series with a different body, this is why they have excellent fit and finish and interior materials, but BMWs are also more expensive to maintain than your average honda. The materials are more, the labor is more, etc. Much of it you can do yourself if youre handy, there is a huge community of mini fanatics on facebook and forums that can guide you. If you like to modify there are tons and tons of brands that only make parts for minis, the community is just that big. If you're not a hands-on person when it comes to maintenance i would look for a local "german auto" shop that specializes in European cars, it will be way less than the dealer. A great example is that Hengst makes the air filters for BMW, and if you buy the one with the bmw logo its 25% more, for the same darn part. I guess the TL;DR is, if it is clean, has service history, and a clean carfax, i would do it.

      i use it a few times per year. Honestly i think its a good value, i paid around 1300 for it, a good floor jack is 250 and stands are 200 or so a pair, so reasonably this isnt much more than a jack and stands. I like that you dont have to worry about deforming the swisstrax, and its safe enough that my kids can use them easily.
