@@veryscaredbunny I had to wait for a certain timeframe to pass due to the last vid being flagged. After the timeframe youtube gave me to behave passed, I can start being an idiot again. It’s a cycle. That’s why you see some vids with no cussing or dark humor.
Thanks for letting people in on this! I'm gonna do it today Another thing they should know is Cover other parts of the tires and do their best to avoid breaks! People are special and will of course go and spray their disk and see their maker if you don't tell them the obvious😅
At 205 in a bottle ??? is that what you guys were talking about? I’m trying to do it on my car but all I see is the one that’s in the bottle that you can pour your transmission and stuff.
@@prakash0vegunta protecting rubber isn’t limited to just your CV boot. All rubber components exposed to harsh weather have the same wear and tear. Some more than others.
My mechanic actually advised against spraying the cv boots with silicone and AT fluid. The thinking is it could actually accelerate wear faster than leaving them alone.
But in reality, without applying the silicone or AT fluid will cause early failure so you can take it into your mechanic so he can make his car payments. Thats what our GX community is for, its so you don't have to rely on mechanics.
Second the AT-205. Silicone is great for quick maintenance, but it does not rehydrate and repair the rubber like the polymers in AT-205. It's not cheap, but it is better engineered for this type of maintenance. I apply it twice a year, and supplement it with silicone when temps start dropping. Pro tip: this routine works great for saltwater sailboat maintenance.
@@galaktan_4038 if you read up on its website , it dos not leave a sticky film. It dries quickly and leaves a dry protective film. It also mention it does not attract dirt.
Use Blaster brand silicone as an alternative, it doesn't leave a sticky film on rubber. I use it in my engine compartment to clean and protect plastic components.
Don’t use silicone. Use AT-205, this rejuvenates rubber. It actually slows the off gassing rubber properties.
Silicone is a good measure for general cleaning and it doesn't eat into the rubber. But yes AT-205 is the best for rubber, at a higher cost.
I've made it well past the 80k mark using AT-205. I'm now at 110k on my GX, and the boots are still supple and crack free.
How do you apply it? 50/50 mix with water in a spray bottle?
Bob, you're on a roll with videos. Thanks for this!

Good thing i added the cleaning reminder at the end of the video. Thanks for the advice 36mcast!

Yes, that's it.
A must for all gx owners. Great idea.
How about spraying it on the air suspension rubber components. Will that keep the rubber from cracking?

Bob I have been using
AT-205 re-seal but this stuff looks a little bit better
@@ravin747 Finally, a comment without reference to condoms.
@@GXBOB never liked them , they always fell off
@@ravin747 Maybe stop using the Magnum ones.
You're a very funny guy, Bob you make.
Me laugh thank you
Wait till you see me naked, there's more to laugh at.

Does this formula work on jimmy hats?
@@randyjangles4102 If you’re Asian, you might need 2 cans.
I use Aerospace 303
Thank you Bob! Should we previously wash the undercarriage before application of the WD40?
Yes, i would if i had the patience. Watching water dry after a spray-down is like watching paint dry.
Where the link to buy AT-205?

I think that silicone is sticky and after drying more dirt and dust will stick to the rubber.

Looks like you do your best work on your knees 😅. Good advice. Ordered my can. Will it work on condoms?
ADD personified
You forgot to mention that i did the entire video while out of my wheel chair.
I think you mean preventive not preventative.
Damn it, you're right. You should have seen the original video. It said preventatative.
Bob was probably drunk, give him a break
@@JavierCR25 🍷
Or maybe he wrote it that way to get that response? 👀🙉🙈 Underestimate GX Bob at ur one's own peril! It is well known!
For added driving fun, get those brake rotors nice and luved. Then do the steering wheel and dont forget the pedals! They are rubber too, no?
