I think the owner was using it as a tractor when I saw the start, as ever you made it gleam again. Great job Heather, love your work. Clear and precise overview of the chemicals used. Your amazing 🤩
Haha I think that may be true, those arches were very muddy! Thanks very much Rob!
The cars you're detailing seem to be coming dirtier and dirtier, Heather. You definitely worked your magic on this VW.
Cheers Paul!
Thank you for the excellent video Heather. You transformed that filthy Passat into a sparkling gem 👌. Koch Chemie and Soft 99 make some truly exceptional products.
Thanks Karl! Agreed, both great brands
Heather. I finally got my Bosch 575X PRO to do snowfoam!!
Got the Hydro MTM SG35, which I replaced instead of the Bosch gun. Next step an MJJC PRO 3. So now I’ve two decent pressure washers on the go, the Nilfisk P80 is still running a treat as well!!
👍👍👍👍
it's so relaxing to watch others do it, well done it's a wonderful job👌👏🙋
Thank you! 😊
From grimy to gleaming! Another excellent video Heather 👏🙂
Thank you!
Well done Heather. The Passat looks amazing now thanks to your hard work.
Thanks Darren!
Thats a true transformation, that must have taken you hours
Maybe, Heather, u could expand into ‘Classic Car Care??’
I’m sure u’ve thought of this already??
😝😝😝😝👍👍👍👍
Nice work Heather, customer must have been pleased.
Thank you! This was actually just a family friend’s car but they were very happy!
Wow! You’re a beautiful detailer! Great video n narration👍🏼
Keep you fit cleaning that one. Sort of car you always find you miss a little bit when you've finished.😂 Cracking job was always Heather.⭐
Thanks very much for watching!
Great video Heather! Thoroughly enjoyable. 👍
Thanks very much!
Great work as always Heather! 🙌
Thanks very much Jason!
Once again another fantastic and informative video Heather
Thanks Mark!
The dressings for different tyre walls was interesting, not heard anyone come up with that before.
Always luv watching your cleaning videos. Gives me ideas about different ways to clean my little Yeti.
Glad to see you back as well :)
Thanks Mark!
Nice job as always Heather 👌👌
Thanks Brian!
Beautifully done. 🤘🏻😎🔨 Nice work, Heather.
Thanks very much Joe 😊
Hello Heather,
Top work and a great transformation.
All the best, John.👍
Thanks very much John!
As always an excellent and enjoyable video to watch with informations about how.Heather you are something else keep bringing the videos 🤌
Thanks for the support!
Cracking job on the Passat Heather, hope you're settling into your new home and the garage project is coming along nicely 👍
Thanks very much Mark!
Perfect timing! Need inspiration for washing the van tomorrow 😊. Awesome job Heather!
Thanks for watching!
@@AutoCareHQ Always a pleasure! Thanks for sharing what you do with us! 🙏
Great job and video Heather
Thanks for watching!
Wow that was a very dirty chariot. Great work and a superb turn-around.
Thanks very much! 😊
Excellent job as always. 👍
Thanks!
Great job as always 👍
Thank you!
Great job Heather, there's a nice gloss on the paint 👏👏
Thank you! 😊
Great video again heather. That was a Passat that needed some care. Fantastic products used yums and soft99. Detail bugs products are a hidden gem, big fan of them.
Cheers Karl! Yep Detail Bug make some great products especially for the price
What a great job Heather looks amazing to when you started it well done ❤
Cheers Dave 😊
Great job again, you make it look so easy 😀
Thanks for watching!
Great results with the products must give that snow foam a try.
Cheers Heather, great video
Thank you!
I do love a filthy car to show the transformation to a glossy good as new look well in the main better than showroom condition. You used some products there that are going on my list of interesting additions for a wish list. Yum products are near the top with Starnagloss close by. The water behaviour with that Fusso coat QD foam looked as good as some ceramic coats. Another excellent video.
Thanks very much for watching John
Great video from start to finish and appreciate the voice over explaining.
I have similar wheels on my VW and when i done my first wash after i had brought the car I noticed there was a lot of water stains running down the wheels but I couldn’t figure out where it was from. After a few washes I realised it was the water which had dried up behind the nut caps which created limescale reacting to my wheel nuts. So every time the wheel would rotate the gunk would seep down the wheel ruining the gloss finish. So now when i give the wheels a wash I remove them and dry them completely. But now it’s a matter of finding a way or a product to use to remove the water stains.
Thanks for watching! Have you thought about getting a car dryer? I have the Blo Air-RS and it's great for blasting the water after a wash and should prevent those drips
Wow really nice end product. Loving the gloss finish. :)
Thanks Pete!
Great video. The wheel protection and drying agent look great products. Will be checking them out.
Cheers Jim!
Looks sweet! I like Green Star. Works very well. You seem to be very busy. Excellent.
Thanks Kim! Green Star is a great product 😊
Great video as always.
Thanks Steve!
Another great detail. Koch Chemie products look spectacular.
Thank you! They’re a great brand 😊
Cracking detail again Heather. I was fascinated with the Softt 99 at the end....at first I thought it was shaving foam :D cheers G
Thank you! Haha I get that, it’s quite an interesting product
Great job Heather cheers 🍻
Thanks Mike!
Superb job as always Heather, kind regards and take care, Mark from Billericay 😀😀
Thanks very much Marcus!
@@AutoCareHQ you’re very welcome, not being bossy, but it might be a good idea to wear eye protection especially when using the power washer, take care 😀😀🌞🌞👍👍
Just had your channel pop up. Really impressed!! I shall be catching up on your others videos ❤👍☺️
Thanks very much for watching!
Good morning, Heather 👋. A long overdue wash indeed! But a mighty fine turnaround I must say.....the soft 99 product appeared to bring about a very nice depth of gloss to the car 👏👏. Have a good week ahead, Heather!
Thanks Graham! Yeah it’s a really cool product, definitely a good one to have on hand when time is short especially
@@AutoCareHQ Thanks for the reply Heather....... I might just give this a try 🤔🙂. Have a great week ahead 👋
The car turned out really nice Heather 👍😁
Thank you! 😊
You're more generous with Rain Drop than me, which is where I think I'm going wrong with it, your results are much better
Great work again, massive difference there. Koch Chemie is one of my favourite brands to use and GS is up there as one of the best pre wash APCs
Thank you! Yeah KC is a great brand
Nice work, Heather. I am getting on a bit, so find a mechanics seat on wheels saves strain on the knees when doing the wheels…LOL. Have you ever tried the one-bucket-several mitts method for the contact wash? Saves filling a second bucket and all that rinsing malarkey, and it’s ultimately a safer method as a dirty mitt never goes into the wash bucket.
Cheers Paul 😊
Yeah it’s a great method! I used to do it a lot with the noodle style mitts but I don’t have quite as many of the rag co ones so probs need some more to do it properly 😂
Top work 🤙⭐️
Thank you 🙌
Wow! Nice results👍🏽
This is my combo too for the pre-wash stage.
GSF and GS are good together. For my contact wash I use Alchimy7 S7THD..
The Active foam of Kochchemie is quite a bit like GSF and GS mixed together.
Thanks! I need to try Active Foam, looks like a great product
As always a total transformation of the vehicle. The soft 99 looks interesting, as I use a carnuba wax qd at the moment :)
Thanks James!
Hello Caretakers. These are heavy used cars, often neglected. Maybe this one was never washed since last Christmas. In this case: Well done.
Thanks for watching!
Nice work! Green Star works great in foam canon! I use consentrat only, and adjust the screw on my PF22 to adjust the foam. On my setup, the dailution is 1/30.
You should alsow try to rins from the bottom and up when in the pre wash stage. It is mutch more efficient when you combind pressure and the chemical. When rinsing from the top, most of the pre wash has rinsed off on the lower and most dirty part of the car before you reaches with the pressure washer.
Thanks! I've not tried GS in a foam lance, will have to give it a go!
Good god ,when did that last have a clean,but a usual you bought it back from the brink. Well done to you.11/10.
Haha thanks very much!
Superb 👌
I’m sure a lot of people don’t realise how much work goes into cleaning a car like this. That really was one heck of a clean. Gone are the days putting washing up liquid in a bucket to wash your car.
Thanks very much Jak!
Great job like 👍 always
Thank you!
Fantastic results given the limited time which you had.... A good job done well! Maybe some of these owners need a 2 Bucket wash... LOL
Haha thank you!
Hi Heather,this was a dirty car to clean,but with the exterior clean,the results are superb.
Cheers Steven!
Excellent 👌👌
Thank you!
Love watching your stuff, great job 👏 so out of interest, what type dressing would you use on a big knobbly off road type tyre?
Thank you! I’d go for a spray dressing, usually easier to spread it if has a thinner consistency
you should try to start rinsing the snow foam from the bottom
thanks i got a bit of a discount buying some bits for my startup kit
Thanks for watching 😊
The dirtier, the more enjoyable😊
That mud in the wheel arch was thick, easily removed by your water gun. Great work, excellent results.
Thanks very much!
Heather, do you ever think the noise the brush makes over those metal brake shields is really horrible? 😵💫
Great video again 😎
Thanks! Haha I absolutely hate it as well, I lowered the volume on that section but it’s still not a nice sound 😂
Hello 🌹❤ Super Video 😀👍
Thanks!
Great video as always. Do you prefer green star over surfex as they kind of do the same thing. I haven't tried GS as yet but another one is G101 by Autosmart.
Thank you! Honestly they’re both very similar, Green star is just a bit foamier
Great result Heather… really nice finish. I’m terms of timing, how long was the clean from start to finish? 😊
Thanks! This took about 4.5 hours including filming. Probably would’ve been 2 hours without
Hiya, I really enjoy your vids as they focus on actual relatable content rather than people reading the back of a bottle and then saying yes it works or no it doesn't. Anyhow, couple of things I'd like your opinion on. Firstly, water - I'm old and back in the day, we used a bucket of hot water but I get the impression this isn't important and cold will be fine?? and secondly, often I find when doing the contact wash, when I'm finishing, the bits I started on are already drying slightly and I feel I should rinse off before it does so do you rinse off in stages to ensure this doesn't happen or do you not find it an issue?
Thanks very much!
Yep cold water is absolutely fine. Warm is okay too but I would steer clear of hot just as it increases the risk of chemicals drying out on the panel.
You can definitely rinse panel by panel if the chemical is drying out by the time you've got round the car. I do it at this time of year and it makes life easier. You can also try misting the car with the pressure washer by standing back a bit and holding it up in the air if that makes sense, which will help keep the panels damp
look nice 👍😊
Thank you 😊
It was pretty nasty. Good job 👌
Thank you!
Interesting product on the final washed car. How long will Soft 99 last Heather?
It’s about 8 weeks
How grafted was this car 😅 but what a great end result ❤
Thanks very much!
Didn't know you could use raindrop like that and the results look really good. Only thing is does it make your drying towel hydrophobic?
Yep it will do so I just use it with different towels as I don't mind as much. If you wash it with a microfiber detergent though afterwards it will help
👍
What pressure washer do u use as im looking for to get as my pressure washer has broke
It’s a Kranzle K10, I’ve put a link in the description
What did you use when you cleaned the tires?
Detail Bug Mantis
What are those pads under tyres for?
This page will explain it better than I can on here www.rimmats.com/
Would you say green star is a better choice than surfex HD for really soiled cars?
They’re both very similar to be honest, GS is just a bit more foamy
@@AutoCareHQ I thought this may be the case, I use auto foam & HD in a pump sprayer for really bad cars. Thanks for your reply
Is it ok to add glatt to the brake discs as you did?
I’ve never had issues personally. I wouldn’t spray it too close though/ directly near the disc. With larger wheels like this a lot of the disc is shielded so it doesn’t really get on it
@@AutoCareHQ Thank you! I think I'll give it a try as I have a whole bottle that's been sitting on my shelf for a year! I stopped using it as I kept accidentally getting it on plastics and other trim and it's stained them forever!
I could imagine the bushes being cut down to give you more room 😅
It’s on my list of jobs 😂
@@AutoCareHQ I sort of had that feeling. It was good to see you smiling and really enjoying your new place, so used to seeing you concentrate It was almost weird just being so excited 😂😂 keep up the good work...
What camera are you using? Sorry for the question
It’s a Canon 60D
@@AutoCareHQ okay nice✅thanks
Best product to get rid of hazey swirl marks ? Car is black
It will just need either machine or hand polishing. Alternatively you could use a glaze (e.g. Poorboy's Black Hole) to mask the swirls temporarily
Are there Instagram pages available. I find successful people interesting.
are you married lol😂😂😂😂 cracking job
😂😂
👀👀
Thats what I call "dirty car"... To all detailers...watch and learn from Heather...
Haha thank you!
Did you literally stalk car parks to find the person?
😂😂 this was just a family friend’s car actually haha
Soft 99 bazooka is good on glass. Give it a try!
Great idea!
