Great job! That’s one of the best cars Honda/Acura ever built in my opinion.
Thank you! And yes I agree, I’ve always loved those model Acura’s.
Facts ive own one for about a year now with 180k miles thing runs fucking beautiful
Ditto! My 06 has over 170k. Very strong
Agree! I have an 08 TSX with 120K miles recently took it to the dealer for a transmission fluid change he said the car was in excellent condition..
I own both a 3rd gen and a 4th Gen Acura TL both with 6mts. The 3rd gen is nice, and I use it as a daily driver. But it is not even on the same league as the 4th gen with the sh-awd. I save my 2011 6MT for the times I really want to smile!
You sir are a good friend. I have a 06 that we bought for my wife and still have it now with 145K miles. Cracked dash sucks but it's been a very reliable car.
@Thuan The Dreaded Cracked Dashboard ISN'T your fault, ALL OF THE 04-08 ACURA TL"S HAVE THAT PROBLEM...AS WELL DO I.
Dude! Those lines in carpet are such a professional touch. I hardly see anyone do that. 👍🏾
Thanks for the kind words! I’m not always able to leave the carpets looking like that because of the different styles of carpet but when I can it’s super satisfying
You are the GREATEST FRIEND for doing that. And ya friend went and sold the Acura afterward? Lol what a jerk haha
He ended up keeping the car so I guess we can still be friends
That’s a true friend right there!!!!
I have an 06 base, automatic. I do not care for automatic. But this car? Incredible
Might I say that You Sir have done a very FANTASTIC JOB WELL DONE, I know this was a lot of work to bring this fine beauty back to it's PRESTINE ACURA TL 2004 look. If You were here in Philly You would be my ONLY personal Car Detailer and Washer, for I have a 2005 Acura TL just like your friend does...I REALLY ENJOYED YOUR ARTISTIC CRAFTMANSHIP!!!
Wow, thank you for all the kind words! I would be happy to be your car detailer!
I own a 04 TL same color great car best car Honda /Acura ever built.
Very good job on the auto detailing. Keep up the good work.
They are awesome cars and thanks for the kind words!
Nice I own a 2005 acura tl I need a find someone who can do this to my car she needs a deep clean lol.. damm good job sir... love ur work..
I would love to clean up your TL for you, Thanks for the love!
Love these older car detailing vids
Thanks! I have always loved these Acuras
As somebody looking for a 08 TL I'm giving you the side eye at "older"
Jesus. I need this guy to do my exact model Acura TL!
You and me BOTH ASAP!!!!!
2004 Acura TL Navi. Exterior black interior Black and Tan. 180k still super strong and sexy!
Great job!
Thank you and those model Acura’s are awesome!
Amazing video bro. Shocking to see ur subscribers bc you put amazing quality content with good voiceover to keep me entertained.
Keep cleaning really dirty cars and post them.
Use other successful car cleaning youtubers and copy what they do
I appreciate the kind comments! I’m going to do my best to keep posting new content
Thanks for the vid, I enjoyed watching the transformation, it was quite satisfying!
Don't stop ! Your videos are good ! Your community will grow
Thank you, I’ll keep them coming!
Damn they clean up nice. Only North America got these cars. True Acura designed and engineered product
I’ve always loved these models!
Awesome video dude can’t wait for summer to do all this on my TLS 🤟
Appreciate it! Hope your project goes well!
04 TSX here, white, 6spd manual showroom. Clay bar/polish/wax once a yr at least. Handwash and keep inside super clean. Rust spray every 2yrs, krown. If there is a will, there is a way.
Right on
Great job of detailing that TL. I am encouraged to go and detail my Accord EX. Ordering brushes from Amazon. Thanks again!
Glad you enjoyed the video and that I could help you detail your own vehicle, have fun!
You did a really nice job I own an 07 Type S 6 Speed Car that's silver I've washed it and leather cleaned the interior I haven't done a full detail though I really want to clay bar the car make it as smooth as glass
Appreciate the kind words! Yes it’s satisfying doing a clay bar treatment to a vehicle and making it feel smooooooth! Enjoy!
That wet vacuum is amazing!
Wow just bought a 2011 Acura TSX and I want to learn how to clean like this but I gotta buy a wet vac and pressure washer, oh and all the cleaners and accessories
There are a few kits you can get online that may save you some money and check Amazon for some well priced machines.
Very Nice! Since you aren’t in Jax I’m gonna have to Buy EVERYTHING from the Links & get to Work on my 2005 TL 🤦♂️👍😎
Nice! Hope it goes well for you!
The same here
Man your the awesome friend anyone can ask for you did outstanding job super satisfying I also have 2004 Acura TL in showroom condition I can takes alot of dedication I hope your friend didn't sell the car 😎👍👍
Thanks for the kind words. TLs are awesome cars and I’m glad you have a nice one. My friend ended up keeping the car🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
That car has been taken care of. Nice work!
Thank you!
Wow…… look amazing bro, that a true friend right there. You never ever gonna fined a friend like that again “ Guaranteed “…… Thx
Thank YOU! And thank you for the kind words, much appreciated.
Thank you for this video and the links in the description I haven't been able to find a detailing video like this that shows all the tools used aswell
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it
I love this man. Thanks for sharing this. I have the same car and I never thought of removing the seats to properly clean it. 🍻🤙🏽
I love you too man! Glad I could help, hope your detail goes smooth!
hell yeah gotta show love to the 3rd gen TL. Stay safe man, great content!
Thank you! You stay safe as well.
Just FYI anyone that owns a TL or is going to be cleaning one: these cars are amazing overall but have very poor quality material in the dash and seats. reddit/forums always suggest to never use any conditioning type product on the seats or dash as it'll just dry it out faster and will accelerate cracking on both. That's what I've been doing, just use very mild diluted cleaner on both the seats and dash and you'll be fine. and use get a sunshade to put in the windshield on hot days.
I brought my daughter an 20005 TL it needs some TLC I'm going to give it a full detail. starting with a dash one of the flaw of owning a 3rd gen TL the dash cracks.
Yes, unfortunately. Real nice cars besides the dash. Happy for your daughter!
If you haven't already get a cover lay dashboard cover. It's a hard plastic that looks good and fits really tight, it has to be glued on. Way better than any dash Matt and only $169
Damn u had that car shining
That was an amazing video. loved the way you put that together too. I know that was a lot of work. You are truly great at your craft. Makes me want to do my black 2008 TL once the pollen is gone.
It was a lot of work and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I love how he deep cleaned all the console electronics !
If you like to work all cramped and beeing all sweatty from the steam, its your buzz . You would cut your cleaning time by half by removing the carpet and pressure wash/rince it .
Nothing in tje car or electrics wire/connector have been soaked .
Great video though btw. That stuff is harder work than most people think.
Thank you
Absolutely. I’ve been washing and detailing my own cars for years now. How do you feel about using dawn dish soap as an old wax and polish removing soap ? I’ve always had good results with it.
I don’t think it would hurt anything and I’m sure it does a great job removing any old waxes and polishes. I have some friend that use it to wash their vehicles
@@atouchofhutchad sweet. Yeah I’ll keep using it. I just always use a quick detail product directly after drying the vehicle. I like the turtle wax quick detail spray.
@@alphasaiyan5760 yes I love all their new ceramic products. I also like Carpro Elixir detail spray
This is amazing. I’m going to do this to my TL. Thanks you for your time and details. Pun intended.
Haha nice pun. Thanks for the kind words
@@atouchofhutchad I literally watched the whole video. Great explanations and pacing. You deserve more followers and views. Most detailing videos don’t show the complete process.
Side note, what do you use for your aqua vac (I think that’s what you called it)?
@@tangsuto978 appreciate the kinds words my friend. In the Aqua Vac Pro solution tank I just use hot water because I’m already laying down chemical on the fabric. Hope that helps
I love that model TL but it’s unfortunate that Honda couldn’t have used better quality material when making the dashboard on that car, the interior is mint and the cracks make it look soo bad, I had a ‘90 Accord until about 2001 and the dash never cracked
Thanks for the nice words. It is unfortunate about the cracking dashboard. It’s about the only imperfection on this car and hopefully my friend is able to get it replaced.
Trynna find another non Cracked dash is like finding the winning lotto ticket 🤣
I just bought a used 08 with a pristine dash and I am doing everything possible to prevent the inevitable, but I know it's for nothing. One day it's gonna crack, just like the perforated leather seats.
@@atouchofhutchad yeah dont forget the terrible transmission that's blows up like a balloon
Try the ultima guard plus or 30 aerospace protectant. Don’t know if this will help but it’s worth a try, hope it works for you!
That car looks 100 times cleaner than mine hahaha
Bro you are awesome great way to put your talent and hard work out there. Good luck to you! Thanks for the knowledge very much apriciated.
Thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video!
This is so satisfying to watch.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Hey quick question which extractor are you using to suck all the water out of the carpets thanks dude great job man this is what you call a proper detail
www.aquaprovac.com
Aqua vac pro. Mytee is a really nice brand too. Thanks for the kind comments!
GREAT VIDEO!!!!! VERY RELAXING TO WATCH!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
I just got one and it looks mint other than cracked dash and cracked seats. I mean not even a dent on it such a shame:(
Loved this video
Glad you enjoyed it!
sheeeshhh good job man very impressive
Appreciate it my dude!
Man this guy can wash some wheels.
💪🏻💪🏻
Great transformation great vid 👍🏼👍🏼
Good stuff man! Keep it up
Will do, thank you!
Can I bring my car over and you can details it for me? Lol look very professional. 👍
Of course, anytime! Thanks for the kind words
@@atouchofhutchad where r u located at my friend?
Kentucky
I hope you charged your friend? You worked hard and did a great job! How hard is it to remove seats?
Haha yes we worked it out. Thanks for the kind words. It’s not too difficult to remove seats- disconnect your battery, remove the seat bolts, and disconnect the power to the seats and the air bag sensors
I have a black one. It was pretty neglected when I bought it. The dashboard is also cracked. Needs a paint job but the car's decent.
Yes they are decent cars. I like how well they clean up. Thanks for watching!
Looks damn good man!!
Thanks bro!
Good Job 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks 👍
how much to detail my 2017 tlx 🤔 you do a great job 💯
Thank you and If you can get your TL to Kentucky I can take care of it for you!
WOW! I have 04 TL, wanted to do the same detailing with it,, but no time to do it, can you do this for me, lol. thanks...
I got you! Bring it to Kentucky and I’ll hook you up
@@atouchofhutchad haha, thanks, am in Canada though....lol!
Nobody: .....
Everybody: Old dusty French fries under seats. 😂😂
😂😂🤦🏼♂️
Exelente!!!
Like the music lit🔥 question fo you rave thanks for thr video
Wow
Is there anything u would recommend to protect the dashboard? Clean it i have a 05 TL luckily my dash is not cracked .. but i live in tx and its a hoooot summer
303 Aerospace or Ultima interior guard plus are a couple products I really like
don't use any products on it, thats what makes it crack, only water
The aftermath looks nice ash. My Acura TL is not as bad but isn’t far off. I bought the car a month ago and the previous owner didn’t really maintain it. How much you think you would charge for a cleaning like this?
Right around $450-$500 for what I did in this video
@@atouchofhutchad alright, not to bad. Thank you for the estimated price. I enjoyed the video btw.
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
you can leave the link where you bought the vacuum cleaner
The vacuum I purchased a long time ago and not sure they make that model anymore but if you Google Shop Vac vacuum you can find one similar and in case you were talking about the extractor here’s the link www.aquaprovac.com
Pro tip.. run the engine wile your spraying the engine
Do you do this on the side? Where are you located?
I’m detailing on the side until I can get a client base built up in Kentucky!
Where can I get a detailing kit like yours ? I myself own a 08 Acura TL
Amazon has a lot of starter detailing packages. Chemical guys usually have some good starter packages for reasonable prices. Adams polishes also have some good packages if you want to check their website
What was the dilution ratio for the fabriclean?
I believe it was 10:1
How much for a job like this would it be for atleast the outside of a car ?
It depends on what is being done to the car (wash, clay, iron removal, paint correction etc) but what I did to this vehicle I would charge anywhere from $30-$50 depending on size and condition of the vehicle.
You are cool friend 👍👍
You are cooler, my friend😀
Aye bro can u do a acura rl
I got u bro anytime
@@atouchofhutchad thanks bro
If you know what that big, red, rectangular button is on the master window swtich at 22:35, you are a 3G TL owner. Lol.
where do you live, i want to pay for your services... really good! nice job!
I’m in Kentucky
And thank you for the kind comments!
ACURA TL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s funny how people worry about the engine and components getting wet. You think that it doesn’t get wet driving in the rain ? That little bit of cleaner and water is minimal compared to what it sees driving down a wet road.
What extractor is this?
Aquavac pro
I’ll buy his car! I could use another one! Lol
Just detailed mine today also except for the carpets cause I don’t have an extractor
Dude, I wish I could do them for you! But since I can’t I would recommend getting a small Bissel extractor. They’re not the biggest but they’re affordable and you can use them in your home too
A Touch Of Hutch Auto Detailing thanks for the suggestion I will look into it and I’ll buy it for my girlfriend as a gift. But it’s really gonna be for me xD
Haha nice! Hope it works well for you
What city are you in I want you to do my car lol
I’m in Kentucky, happy to help anytime!
What is the price of a full detail like that? Interior and Exterior.
For this detail I would charge right around $200
For the what the TL looked like this is a more than a fair price! Thanks for the intel
Where are u located?
Kentucky
Man he trashed that car..
2004?
I was told it was an 03 but I could have been told wrong or maybe that’s what thought I heard lol
@@atouchofhutchad That's 100% not a 2003.
2003 TL's are second generation. That's a 3G TL, possibly 04-06.
Edit: Nice video. I have Jet Seal and have not used it in a while because I've been using Seal N Shine. Going to be trying it out again next time i correct my TL!
Sounds awesome! I love jet seal, I hope it works well for you. Also, I’ll have to change the title of the video once I find out from my friend what year it is. Thanks!
I would recommend buying better quality products than Chemical Guys, plus you could be getting more quantity for what you’re paying for CG products.
Any suggestions?
A Touch Of Hutch Auto Detailing meguiar’s, shine supply, Angelwax, Pinnacle, Griot’s Garage..
3 scrubs on the carpet,....
?
Thats a 04 not 03
You’re right! It’s been fixed in the thumbnail and description but the voice over is incorrect. Thanks for watching!
Thats not a 2003
It is not. I changed the year on the thumbnail and title but forgot to change it in the description.
i need to do this to my 05 TL. i detail it every week but i need to shampoo it and clay treat the paint
You can do it!💪🏻
