I suspect this video may go on to get a fair few views so I'll just leave this here...
Pressure washing shuts following a one-off thorough clean is perfectly safe and acceptable. In my experience it won't cause the car to rust away, hinges to seize or lock mechanisms to fail.
There will always be some overspray contaminating surrounding interior panels but so long as you tend to the shuts before detailing the interior and wipe the overspray off with a towel, it's really not a big deal.
Yes, I got close to the speaker grill here (mainly due to the fact I was working at an awkward angle because there was a large video camera and tripod standing where I usually would be) but it's my car, I wasn't concerned and neither should you be because it's a Volvo and it still works.
There's a big difference between initial/one-off deep cleaning and regular maintenance cleaning. You wouldn't degrease, brush and pressure wash your already clean, polished and protected shuts and similarly, you wouldn't go at filthy, neglected shuts with a mere rinsless wash, detail spray or similar.
Car Cleaning Guru
Can you tell me what stuff was used for the seals. I'm struggling to find a decent water based one
Question that's a bit off topic,is there any tip or way of drying off the discs after washing? Wheels seem to get a light coating of rust dust.
andrew mc cabe
Yeah always happens then when you drive the rust mess up the wheel.
I bought a can if that air spray that you use to clean computer keyboards and what I do is use it to blow the water off the disc
andrew mc cabe
You could pat dry with a towel, otherwise remove wheel to do so.
As been asked what did you use to dress your door seals with??
Only Car Cleaning Guru can make a 20 minute video on how to detail door shuts/sills/slams. What a legend, love your work mate
It's 2AM and I'm watching a guy wax door jambs on the other side of the world.
...ain't the universe amazing..
Literally exactly what I’m doing right now but it’s 1:44
Same.
4:56am here lol
@@Armelmarcus 2:44am while reading your comment... weird
...I have gone 20 years without ever cleaning that part of any of the vehicles I have owned. And I still found this video incredibly fascinating.
I'm impressed! Makes a hell of a difference. Not something I've ever really concentrated on but after watching this video, something I feel I need to start doing!
wow, hats off this is the pinnacle of car care. Top bloke, and what a lovely car and colour ❤
Love watching his videos, calms me right down and I learn something new. Don't know why everyone is not watching this.
Watching ur video during midnight sleeping is so satisfying
Shivaprasad Gb this is why I am here,Once I realized it was this guy I was stoked!
Can watch these videos all day his voice is soothing and has tons of knowledge
WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT WATCHING A GUY WASH A CAR COULD BE SO RELAXING.
Seriously one of my favorite detailing channels, AMMO NYC included. Both of you guys are ridiculously detail oriented, and seem incredibly passionate at what you guys do. Please keep up the great work, I look forward to these videos when I’m having a particularly bad day 👍🏼
Laundrybasket42 guru and Ammo NYC are exceptional st what they do. Guru needs to do voice over work. I am an American and this guys got talent lol
His neighbours are like "He's washing his car again. That 48 hours went pretty fast"
Relatable
That is truly one SWEET ride you got there Mr. Guru! Absolutely LOVE that Polestar Blue color. One of my favorite colors of all time on a vehicle, very similar to the French Racing Blue made so famous over the years on the legendary French racing cars including Bugatti, Delage, Delahaye, Peugeot, and my personal favorite ALPINE! Great video content also as always.....your training videos are some of the best related to Detailing vehicles on UA-cam, hands down.
I've never seen a hand job like that before but I enjoyed it all the same lol
Niamh Healy unfortunately they aren't always this thorough 😂😂😂
You've got to find someone with OCD lol they will be super thorough ;)
Niamh Healy Oh how about the local Romanian car wash do you think they'd offer a good service 😂
I didn't know they offered hand jobs lol I've never cum across them? Sorry couldn't resist 😂😂😂
Nothing like a good quick hand job eh Guru! haha! ;-) Tackling my shuts this weekend, cheers!
11:25
His wife : why the hell is engine out
He : i found a dirt under the engine 😂
VERY clear and thoroughly done!!! Hats off for a great job and video!!!
I have just given your channel an accreditation after following some hints and tips you've given previously. I had done an engine bay deep clean.
Thank you.. Keep the AWESOME work up!
This gentleman is so AWESOME! CAN LEARN ALOT FROM HIM!😊 The👑 of Car Washing!
Please make a video of all the products you use or recommend. I for one would love to see your go to products. Excellent video btw.
Love your videos. There's something very soothing about watching the cleaning process in combination with your narration.
I just wanna say thank you for giving so many tips and being so clear. Its amazing. Ive tried a video like this myself but no one will ever match your videos! Thank you for making me so interested in simply cleaning!
Thank you for the information. I've learned a lot from you in taking care of 3 Volvo's and a Lincoln.
“Don’t unnecessarily flood the rear end” lol
I love your vids. I find them along with your narative very soothing and ralaxing.
Must be the cleanest Volvo in the world! Love the videos great tips and hints and so soothing to watch.
Now I have more weapons in my detailing arsenal to win a show. Thanks sir!
I’ve often ignored all of these areas; my mistake. I found it a great tip to also pull back the seals 👍🏼 great info!
This is the best video i seen about this subject. It is going slowly and shows what is needed to be seen :-) . Thank you!
Love those still shots. Fell in love with that paint color the first time I saw it on your new ride.
Excellent video, and just in time for spring cleaning. Perfect detailing tools, products and techniques!
Perfection.
I watch your vids time and again.
Right now, I've taken a break from my intense cleaning of my car: (a) someone did a hit and run on my boot which has spoiled my pleasure of the car and (b) the cars value is prob way less than the value of the clean I do....
I know it's an old vid, but there's lots you do that's worth watching over again.
I wish you crazy success in 2020.
Why is your voice so satisfying...
I love listening to all the songbirds in your videos!🐦 The detailing is good too! I've been hesitant to get in with the jambs bc of fear of saturating interior carpets!
Listening is Like a goodnight book 😂 love it
Very nice detailed looking door shuts there. I've been waiting for this area detailing video for a while now and thankfully one arrived here. I've been really scared of touching the door shuts with any kind of a water sprayer(pressure or hose), so I developed a little waterless wash detail with spray bottles for these areas. Works quite the same as this method however some bits are harder to get to and miss quite a lot of those places for a quality finish. I actually like these "hard to work with" detailing areas as they are the places where you can spend your time really on getting them looking great even though no one notices them but you know they are in great shape.
Excellent vid as ever Guru.
It's an area many people either dismiss or don't really know how to tackle, top work :)
Could listen to this guy all day... good work budd.
Ah. Your vids always give me such joy.
Sweet baby Jesus. Your voice is so smooth and calming.... you could brutally torture someone but as long as you narrated it all, it wouldn't be a problem :'-) Keep up the good work!
Everyone should be grateful for a quick hand job. Great video, I'm tackling my car tomorrow.
A really appreciate you taking the time to put U.S links for the products you use.
People with OCD must watch your videos and feel somewhat "normal"!!! 🤣 😉
It's true for me 🤣
True! Felt really good. Cleaned my car after watching.
Amazing video, you are the surgeon of the car detailing world!
Very detailed as ever👍 I find to rinse around the boot/tailgate, you can get most of the suds rinsed away with the boot/tailgate closed and pour water in and around the gaps with an open hose. The boot will stay dry then but that’s with the rubber seals in place! Looking forward to the Guru Mobil have a full polish. It’s a great colour and I love solid paint when it’s polished to perfection.
Nice, I use large black refuse sacks to line interiors prior to washing to avoid overspray on the interior
Each time you talk it sounds like a rap freestyle. Deep man. Love it 🔥👌🏻
Mi Likey to me he sounds like that old dude from NatGeo,,, sir something, can’t remember his name.
8:53 it looks like this part of the pavement got cleaner, will you ever do a pavement cleaning video?
What a great video! I was looking for something like this a month ago. Eagerly awaiting the engine bay video
And who wants a flooded rear end , gulp. Never mind that crevice tool brought into play . Great vid as always 👍
Great content and equally great presentation, easy to listen to, cheers mate 👍 from a fellow northerner (Preston)
Best car cleaning channel on YT, nice car, nice colour, great rims and great sound and your voice is hypnotizing, 😇
As usual, the video and the comments are as clean as the car. Well done!
The small details really bring the car together when your cleaning it
I can heartily recommend AutoBrite Jaffa Clean for door shuts and engines bays. It's a cleaner, degreaser and protectant in one, spray on, let dwell for a couple of minutes, if heavy build up of grease and grime, agitate with a brush, then follow with a pressure rinse. Invariably I do it before or after the snow foam pre-wash, then pressure rinse the whole vehicle for a 2BM wash.
The end results look fantastic, I love the color of your vehicle.
dude the way you talk is just legendary. i can't get over it. haha.
I like doing the door shuts because they're the only part of my car that looks brand new
This is exactly the job I’m doing on my car this weekend thanks!!! 💥🚗💥🚗💥🚗
I just started looking your videos, and I must say you are extremely thorough! Great videos!
Wohoo, finaly detailer guide to door shut cleaning, thanks guru!
Another superb video, once again I saw the upload last night but I calmly waited until after work, with coffee ready!
I did what you did with all the shuts (not to your detail cause I’m not that good!) last year when I bought my car, and because it is silver, I only had to hand wax the shuts once, no need for polish, now every week after I wash my car I simply go over all shuts (quickly) with meguiars last touch detail spray.
Can I also apologies on behalf of all these “desk detailers” who are sitting behind a screen and tell you (a clear professional) how to do this and that.
Your videos are very much appreciated and your miles better than these others “detailing guys” keep it up.
Sorry for this long ass comment.
Fes Y Well said!
i think most people forget/get lazy when it comes to cleaning rubber and plastic bits, tending to focus on the paint. i started treating all the rubber when i got my 91 mx5, which has returned some of flex and sealing ability of the sills, and made some plastic trim pieces nice to touch again.
Who ever had this car off you wouldn’t of found a cleaner one,for sure the cleanest in uk,and the extra’s you put on the engine made the bay pop,it was a mint car for sure
Thanks mate, always awesome to watch your thorough attention to detail and basic tips that make sense to us car guys/diys. Thank you
I have no words.. for you . You are really hard worker 👍👍👍 and incredible💐💐 Love you from India..
A car cleaning channel.
Now I've seen everything.
I just woke up and watched this. I should go to bed now. (I usually watch it before going to bed lol)
Love your vids and it sounds like you live near a bird sanctuary, it sounds so nice and I feel relaxed watching you thoroughly clean cars. I also learn things and get motivated to detail my car better. Today I learned the term “shuts”. Must be a UK term? I’ve always called them “jambs” here in Michigan. Going to detail my door jambs (or shuts) this weekend! 😃👍Thanks Guru!
Missed your videos.
Funny that you chose this part of the car as a theme for a video, as i've been looking at some door seals conditioners such as the Einszett Gummi.
Great job as always. 👍
And yes, much care needed to not flood the rear end. 😀
Jet washing the interior of his car door
Absolute madman
He wasn't doing the "interior" (although I have known this to be done on really bad doors without electrics), but around the edges. It's also common practice as it's the easiest and fastest way of getting the door shuts/jambs clean.
mrman17 yeah well aware of that, I watched the video, but I wouldn’t use my pressure washer anywhere near my open doors
JPJD990 I don't like doing it either, but it is a common practice when I used to work as a service washer years ago.
You get used to it after awhile. If you practice you learn to spray only the jams and not any of the interior. Its just hard plastic so a little water doesn't hurt. Gonna get water there anyway from when it rains :p
JPJD990 As a car detailer who has done hundreds of cars I can tell you there is nothing wrong with it. I do it to every car and never had a problem.
Highly therapeutic to watch. Thank you.
The birds singing, best music for the video
One happy clean car 👍 great detailed video as usual ,thanks 😊. I saw some of the round brushes in B&Q the other day and thought they would be perfect for the areas around the lights.
😂 Super cute fella who really loves his cars.
Your oil pan also needs a good clean inside and wheel bearings are looking dirty.
I read that in his voice :D
You're the Bob Ross of carcleaners.
Looks as mint as possible just perfect.
Snow foam placed in a hand pump spray bottle then agitated it with a 1” brush, no over spray, no excess foam dripping on to the trim... Job done
Your speech is the ultimate ASMR
that's one happy volvo . plenty of nice tricks too ...
This is the Ned Flanders of the car cleaning world
You're so extra I love it. I just spray degreaser and pressure spray it off. The jambs looked amazing thanks for the tips!
I never seen door jambs so clean on my life! 😍
ASMR DOOR SHUTTER CLEANING
I concur with your findings.
I admire your attention to detail Sir! Very well done.🙂 ~Tim~
Great video CCG,you gave me a few tips on doing mine thanks,i will do mine this way when the good weather is here.
An amazing watch as always car cleaning guru. The SIPS mentions make me miss the Volvo V70 we used to have.
I love a bit of Autoglym's Super Resin Polish. Think it's wrong in the description.
Looking forward to another cheeky chappie video from you. Keep up the good work 👍🚘😎
the paint on the shuts really responds well to a polish doesnt it ,great video , keep up the brilliant work
Great video, exceptional attention to detail. I have no idea how 14 people gave you a dislike..
I love your videos and this beautiful Volvo! Keep it up! 👌🏻
i always reserve your vids for the weekend coz i know ima wanna jump up and go clean my car lol cheers mate!!
Great video and I've learned what extra things I should be doing. Thanks for sharing
best detailing video ever
Great video as always great in depth detail always makes me wanna get up and go out and clean the evo
I'm terrible at this area of car cleaning...
also the most boring thing to detail..
Eh, maybe, but you see it every time you get in and out.
i know
Just give them for interior detailing every 3 months or so
This video mixed with that voice is so satisfying
Should do a podcast on hot topics. Thomas the tank engine voice and detailing info would be great on the road!
Cool video.
I never go to this much effort to clean my shuts, a simple wipe down with a wet towel (after I've finished drying the rest of the car) is more than sufficient to get rid of the dirt. Mind you it's only ever dust and thin blobs of dried muck that ends up on my sills, nowhere near as manky as yours. :P
a great detailing artist
Quick hand job !!
Love it buddy ..great video very detailed as always ..you are the Guru !!
