I just posted my newest SUPER CLEAN video on how to Super Clean your Wheels and remove 2yrs of brake dust, tar, and stains: ua-cam.com/video/5zZyiY23OpY/v-deo.html
First (I have a Ford Fiesta too btw)
Hey man Ik this video was a while back but can u make a more detailed video on how to clean and get rid of surface rust in your engine bay metals, thanks bro
@@mikhailmanalili3394 metal wire brush and sandpaper
Yes! I love w this!
@@chrisfix I just bought myself a Nissan Skyline ER34 GTT and unfortunately they're prone for having rust on the strut towers which mine unfortunately has but I have yet to know if it's only the top plate or if it's deeper, in order to restore the strut tower in the bay does a metal wire dremel such as the one you used in the video and sandpaper suffice? And I assume for sanding it would be working from a grittier grit to a softer grit? Thanks for your videos man as these are going to be extremely useful when my car arrives as it is in rough shape.
I love that Chris has helped me realize that my car is not as scary to understand like some impossible math equation that I thought it was. Saving me tons of money and I'm finally learning about my car and how it works lol.
That’s awesome to hear and exactly why I make these videos!
@@chrisfix outstanding UA-cam channel behavior chris! Well done for keeping so in touch with your past videos!
Me too, and I’m a 70 year old woman who now details her own car thanks to this young man!
Honestly...
Yeah mechanics love to want to make you think it's far more complicated than it actually is.
It's strange that 25k people would thumbs down for a gentleman providing a cleaning tutorial. That's bloody barmy
Those weren't people, they were 25k pigs that like to get around in a garbage scowl.
Yes you could put a pic of two little innocent children holding hand with God & you would get thousands of dislikes. I would imagine that after you clean your first engine the others are very easy.
It's like my mom used to say: Some people aren't happy unless they're unhappy.
@@bobmill4824 The easiest way to spot a jackass on the Internet is when they use the word "genius".
They tell people not to clean the engine bay because most people do it by driving to the self-sever car wash, spraying the bay with soapy water, power washing the soap off, and then immediately driving it off. You may have missed it, but that's not what he's doing here. He's going out of his way to protect the electronics from high-pressure water. If the electronics were so sensitive that getting any water on them caused a problem, everybody's car would break down if they drove it in the rain.
I honestly think people get paid to scroll thru UA-cam and hit the dislike button. It can be a video of grass or the sun and it'll have 10k dislikes. I think they just need to get rid of the damn button and tell the haters to suck it. Just my opinion
Been stupidly depressed and anti social. Never thought car videos would cheer me up. I think Chris’s happy attitude and love for what he’s doing is why he’s such a great teacher
Glad you enjoy the videos!
You're not alone man... a lot of depression in the world these days, keep your head up and do things that make you happy.
Praying for you. Feel better man.
Has it gotten any better lately?
@@chrisfixin Pakistan, we wash engine bay with diesel amd water mixed, what you recommend is it good?
This video is a masterclass in making a UA-cam video. The contest is almost irrelevant. It's Chris's awesome attitude and personality, and the way he delivers the content that grabs you, holds your attention, gives you hope that you are fully capable of doing a dreaded task all by yourself, and gifts you the skills to get it done. I am a medium-to-advanced DIYer and I never stop learning something from Chris. Thank you!
Jesus loves you alot trust in His death 4 salvation and be saved from eternal hell
You nailed it on the head! I don't know a thing about cars, but this video was suggested....and somehow I managed to sit through the entire thing without wanting to fast-forward. I actually enjoyed it!
We all fall down and get hurt emotionally, but only Jesus understands your pain. Follow him and he will fill your heart.awdasdadawdaawsadas
Dude your work ethic and the way you break down problems into smaller jobs is truly amazing. Inspirational. Not gonna lie
Thanks a lot!

This is the lesson of Mathematics. This is how we transfer the same principles of problem solving. Break them down, follow the steps.
@@dope1974 @chrisfix this country lmao
My friend's do not understand why I spend so much time fixing and cleaning my 289,000 mile 1999 Honda Odyssey EX mini-van. I tell them, "Because Chris Fix is teaching me how to make the damn thing last forever". You're one hell of a good mechanic and I appreciate all of your vids. Thank you.
Kik Stitch you spend time and money fixing it?? My 2000 Ford F-250 has 300,000 miles on it, I spend nothing to repair it...just change your oil about once a year and that’s it....
@@freedom1439 Then you dont know the value of money he earned that car with hard work and wants to keep it
mängu kood lol your funny.....
@@freedom1439 i wonder how your car last that long
Nur Iman that’s all that’s required....read your owners manual.....change oil about once a year......the oil manufacturers have fooled the public
Most positive engine cleaning video, I have ever seen. 6 years later watching this, and loved the energy you demonstrated in this video, well done!
Thanks a lot!
I'm building out my garage so that I can work on my car more effectively thanks to you and Cleetus. Thanks for everything you do, Chris. You're a national treasure.
Awesome! Are you building a pole barn or your just renovating your current space?
@@chrisfix I'm using an existing space! I moved in about 8 months ago and the house is brand new so I figured I'd get the most out of it. I had the floor epoxied and I'm buying a ton of storage. I've been binging your videos to get some ideas on what projects to do to warm up. I just refilled my bottle of soapy woder and now I'm looking at expanding my existing tool collection. You're the man, Chris!
I love how his videos are timeless, it doesn't seem like this video is 3 years old at all
That's one of the goals with all the videos!
I know...right
I'm still watching!
Same!!
for real it’s like unexplainable
I can’t believe that you’re still replying to comments to a three year old video. I really like how you’re positive btw
Thanks a lot! I spend 4 hours every day going back and reading comments!
@@chrisfix that's awesome of you!
@@chrisfix Umm, probably the most geniune guy on UA-cam, MashaAllah. Thank you man....you put be in the feel good vibes
ChrisFix wow that’s dedication
@@chrisfix ohh man. That's ultimate dedication for us. Thanks mate.
The absoloute greatest mechanic UA-camr to exist. 5 years later still the most informative and captivating video and tutorial.
Thanks a lot!
Some dude mentioned you as a meme in a vid called something like "car culture changed 2012-2022", now I cant stop watching your vids, they are truly a holly grail for us beginners and vets for what I can see, cheers.
Thanks a lot!
ChrisFix: "It should take you 2 hours total."
Me: "This is gonna be an all day job."
When he said 2 hours I was like if he was my manager i would be fired
Me too...
And probably get drunk during the process.
Dude, my wife and I both tackled our 2015 V6 Mustang this after noon starting at like 3pm. We still weren't done after we lost sunlight. Had to resort to flashlights to attempt to finish the plastic protection and still was only able to half ass it until almost 8pm. Granted, the engine bay has never been cleaned, but it looked roughly as dirty as Chris's mustang, so I thought we would have similar results. While it does look ten times better than it did, it's still far from looking new. We're going to repeat the entire process again hopefully next weekend and bust out some cotton swabs because there are SO many hard to reach spots that seem impossible to get to even with wire brushes, pipe cleaners, a ton of soapy water, and detailing brushes.
As long as you get everything prepped and ready, it won't take you as long as you think!
Two hours i can detail motor in 30 minute better then that but i a professional detailer
this guy is still hearting comments in 2019. what a dude. that's a sub.
Q: Do you have 55 days interest free until you have to pay anything after the billing date?
A: The interest free period can be UP TO 55 days, not a 55 days from time of purchase. Ensure you always pay your entire balance by the due date to avoid interest charges on purchases.

Chrisfix is like the Bill Nye of car maintenance. Makes it easy to understand the complex things and I love being watching your videos and picking out what I want to work on next.
One of the best tutorial I have ever seen. Organized, deep, detailed, right to the point and well explained.
Thanks a lot!
This is exactly the equivalent of a make-up tutorial that women like
Seldom have truer words been said!
Be blessed. 🙂
I'm a woman and I'd rather watch this 😂
I'm a Lady that watches both🤣 and this specifically has the most views from me way over 20 times
Hey, watch yourself dude. I'd much rather watch this than makeup tutorials
Ps I’m a girl cars are awesome makeup is dumb there’s no point
I some how stumbled across this video, when I wasn't even looking to clean my engine bay. I ended up watching basically every video you have. Even without needing to do anything on my vehicle. There is just so much time, effort, and instruction in every single video. You earned a sub from the most non-car person on the planet.
GET WREKT same

me too...or I ll just hire some Mexi ans to clean my car..
DoctorKnow956 DoctorKnow956 you lazy ass..
Same here and I don't even have a car. XD
lol a little crowd of us here
Thank you Chris. It is so refreshing know that you drive a car with a clean engine bay. It makes one’s driving experience a breeze. Keep more of these videos coming. I love your content.
Bro I live in a different part of the world, and just bought my 1st car recently, and your video is extremely helpful! Your attitude, and attention to details made me watch the whole vid, even though I'm not going to wash my car's engine for now (cause it's too cold here). You are a friend everyone needs! Thank you for your help for new drivers my man, and keep doing what you are doing. Best of luck to you Chris.
Chrisfix I honestly have to say your videos and your channel is definitely in the Top 10 on UA-cam.
1. You dont clickbait
2. Your videos are Highly entertaining
3. It's not a waste of time and its fun learning and see what you do every video
Thanks for not making me bored and your tips helped me a lot!
I can't argue against any of your reasons.

Absolutely true. I have only two subscriptions - my brother and ChrisFix. In 45 years of keeping my own cars on the road he is the only person who makes sense 100% of the time.
Just used all this info to clean my 300zx engine bay, I must say it turned out great. But now how do i clean all the grease, dirt, and grime out of my wife's toothbrush?
Oven cleaner works great on engine bays. Watch out for aluminum though, it leaves a white chalk.
D Rutt 1969 ? he didnt ask how to clean that and he was joking
oven cleaner acts like paint remover. plz don't try that
Sharayah Green savagery!!
How the fuck did you find room for a toothbrush in the engine bay of your 300zx??
Amazing outcome!
I made the mistake of getting my truck oiled, and now my engine looks terrible.
When the weather turns nice so will my engine thanks to your help.
Much respect:)
This Chris guy is an EXCELLENT communicator. Easily this self help video is the best presentation I’ve seen anywhere. Thank you!!
You should sell a “ChrisFix” kit that contains all of those tools in an easy/convenient to carry bag!
That’s a cool idea
ChrisFix yeah! I ended up buying most of these tools so I can try it out on my car next week during my time off from work.
I just hope I find a convenient way to store them so I don’t have to go looking for them the next time I detail 😂
What better than a ChrisFix bag!
@@chrisfix I'd buy a ChrisFix kit like that
I agree and would purchase just put it in the link below the video please and thank you 😁
@@chrisfix i would buy without a doubt
Not only are Chris' videos informative and highly useful, he does them with a very positive, upbeat, cheerful attitude. Great work, Chris!
Great video Chris. Great editing, narration, and camera work. Very easy for someone else to follow and didn't skip any of the technically important parts.
I actually came across your channel not too long ago because of the super clean videos, didn’t even know anything about cars, but watching you makes me want to start working on my own car! Love your videos
I just popped my hood and went through an automatic car wash to clean mine. Doesn’t start anymore but at least she’s clean 💪🏾
seriously
don't do this. it will bend your hood and who knows what else
@@allseeingeyezz only the first time
Good tip, thanks
Lmao
Great video dude. I'm a professional mechanic for Lamborghini and Aston Martin Beverly hills. I wanted to let you (and everyone else) know that in my professional opinion, from a mechanical standpoint, every caution and every recommendation was accurate. (About covering the engine, not spraying connectors and the components you mentioned with high pressure water, using the right protectant for plastics and rubber) seriously... well done. I learned a couple things too. :)
I also subbed.
I use a spray silicon lubricant instead of the trim restore around the engine. It repels water away from electrical connections and keeps rubber from drying out and cracking.
Mad respect.
Kevin in the back don't worry, he's a mechanical engineer
Oh my god! You work on over priced tractors bro. Noting special
Back in my auto dealer days we used a 3M engine dressing that takes this 2 hour process and turns it into about 20 min. Absolutely loved that stuff. Great video!
Crazy that he still responds so so many comments 50M views and 6 years later. You’re a King Chris 👑
It took me 6 hours on a 2009 Camry I was selling and I followed all directions. I would say I got an extra $1000 when I sold it, the engine compartment looked amazing.
Those 6 hours of detail and 21:58 minutes of the video paid off
Awesome! I'm sure it came out great!
I have the exact same vehicle. Good to know
I bought a mercedes about 10 years ago, the engine bay was filthy when I bought it and still filthy when I sold it five years later. lol
Cbf1A lmao
Hey Maaaan... as an old time car guy, I really enjoyed this vid - But more, I enjoyed your PRESENTATION! No slacker dude with his dog barking constantly in the background, and forgetting his lines, and the wind blowing across the mic, etc... EASY to understand every step and process... GREAT cam and audio work and excellent editing!!! You can not only be proud of your detailing, but proud of the work that went into this DIY vid! Phunny enuf, I was just thinking about cleaning up the engine bay on my '90 Olds a few days ago when I changed the oil.... now I know - it HAS to be done! Thanks, Chris.
6 years late but this video has helped me understand my car in a new light. No longer do I see cleaning and checking my engine as complex physics, but a task I genuinely feel like I can do even though I know nothing about cars :)
Thank you for doing a detailed video showing how to clean the engine bay. I have looked in the past and no one ever has a thorough video so I have always been afraid to try it. With your video I feel confident I can get the job done w/o doing any damage.
Sir?, how much microfiber towels do you need?
ChrisFix: yes
how i get are they good?
@@stevethea5250 They sell them eveeywhere advance auto zone Wal-Mart they are good. You can wash and reuse with reg detergent just don't use dryer sheets or fabric softener it effects the fabric 💕
@@stevethea5250 Check the description of the video, the links are there.

Sweet! Will need to give it a try, if I fail then getting a new car is my only hope for having a clean engine bay. 😂
Hello

Wow, didnt expect to see u here saibot😂
Great video and brilliant info :) I've been cleaning the engine bay of one of my cars fairly regularly, but I've learnt much better techniques watching this video and will certainly putting them into practice. I was wondering what the best way of cleaning that oxidised aluminium was and after watching I'm wondering no more, thanks heaps :)
Hello, again! These videos become addicting once you being getting motivated to maintain and repair your own vehicles. I really appreciate your videos! That van engine bay is what I have been searching for; working on 1991 Astro Van and there are oil build up and thick layers... following these steps will definitely help the cleaning process.
Boy do i feel dumb I've been eating off my dirty engine for years now.
I'mnosuperman lmfao that is great
Even if I super cleaned my engine to dine off of, where does he even get a sandwich like that??
Realistically Dazed did you have a stroke?
You get used to it.......don't be ashamed......
Your mistake was to eat off a cold dirty engine.
Chris: “get your dust mask on”. Everyone in march 2020: “WE DONT HAVE ANY MORE”

Too true lol
Just cleaned my 2002 4Runner using this video. It's night and day. Came out so great. Wish I could attach before and after pics here. Thanks for the video!
This just might be the best how to video I've ever seen. Energetic, positive and no messing about. Really well put together and most importantly, I now feel confident in detailing my engine bay myself! Massive thanks and keep up the great work!
I'm glad you like the video! Thanks a lot!
The amount Of time and effort that went into making this video plus also editing it man you are actually a person who cares about people if no one has thanked you let me be the first and thank you for helping us save money on detailing!!! We appreciate you for this video! ❤️️
Thanks a lot Ricardo! I try to take my time and produce quality content you want to actually watch and that doesnt waste your time! I want my video to be a one stop shop for you to know what to do whether cleaning a car or fixing it.
ChrisFix what if we can't take out the car battery I have a dodge avenger and it's in a hard place to take out
I completely agree - one of the reasons I'm subscribed is because he goes above and beyond.
granted he does care about us and our viewing experience he also gets paid the better his videos do so theres a lot of incentive to making them good.
soxredsox He deserves to get paid good but if you watch his videos he does everything with excellence! That's just part of who he is!
I always complain to my husband about him spending too much time on his car, but here I am at 12 AM watching how to super clean an engine bay. This was so satisfying.
Lol glad you enjoyed the video
the only part i didnt find satisfying was when he painted his camera lens
it just kills me when he does that
@@aidankuster1333 haha I thought that part was pretty cool
@G1zm0 abizmo hahaha WOOOOOOW
Nice...
Chris, I just cleaned the engine bay for my 2003 Honda Element for the first time. I'm shocked at how clean it looks! Thank you for your post. I learned a lot from your post.😊😊😊😊
Great job, with fantastic instructions and results! The only thing that would worry me is, when using just the brushes or microfiber wrapped brushes, and fishing them into the tight spaces, I would worry about loosening, not completely removing, wires and harnesses. Not being a big time car guy would mean that I wouldn’t know what things weren’t making the correct connections. So, I will have to be much more careful when getting into the small spaces, or mostly skip them. Either way, the engine compartment will look tons better! Thanks again.

MAKE A HOW TO SUPER CLEAN YOUR INTERIOR.
LIKE IF YOU AGREE!!!
Step one, buy a commercial steam cleaner....
But if you dont have $1500 for a used steam cleaner, carpet cleaner cans (with the scrubber) and microfibers do the job. the carpet cleaner works great on cloth seats too. I cleaned a bench seat from a 92 F250 that was a construction truck it's whole life and it looked almost brand new after I was done, aside from a small tear from wear.
I am looking for a car with a dirty interior! My friend says she has one so we will see!
That would be awesome!
You're the best ChrisFix!
ChrisFix great job
ChrisFix you can do mine 😂😂😂
I'll never do this, but I really enjoyed watching someone do a good job! A really excellently presented video.
hey chris i’ve been watching your videos for so many years this video came up in my recommended and dude. 48 million views. you deserve everything you have bro. i’d watch these videos in some of the lowest times of my life and something about you saying “hey guys” genuinely made everything better.

Hey Chris, I work exclusively on aluminum (aircraft world) a nylon abrasive wheel is better for the aluminum. Metal wire wheels actually cause holes into the aluminum. Which will help deteriorate the aluminum over time
Yeah I nylon brush wheel would probably have been better, the steel wire wheel will cut through that aluminum

Good tip thanks man!
Damn I wish I saw this before I want to town on my aluminum lol
I am a woman, but there is something so beautiful about keeping your car neat and clean even under the hood. I got lucky about 5 years ago and found a Toyota with less than 40k miles on it. After driving for 3 months when I check my oil.. it looked so clean that you could pour that oil into another car. I wouldn't without knowing if it's safe.. but that's how clean the oil runs through my car. I was used to driving older cars with black oil on the dip stick so I was obsessed with keeping my vehicle in the most prestine condition that I can manage.
The thing I love the most about my car is that all the parts are covered with caps and plastic protectors. I wipe everything off regularly just to keep everything looking new.
I saw a man pressure washing the leaves off in a car wash bay one day.. and I wasn't sure if I should do that with my car so I just used gloves and my hands and cleaned. I used a spray bottle and cloths .
Im happy that I found a video like this that goes in depth about every part. I strongly appreciate the preparation and detailing steps. Your voice is so engaging! 😊😊😊😊❤ Thxx
Your videos are so helpful for those of us who want to take car we of our cars but just aren’t sure how to go about it. Thanks for all the terrific information, explanations and demonstrations!

just close the fucking hood and you are good to go, no need to waste 2 hours cleaning it.
@spqr101010 Ever heard of working on your car? It's so much easier.
this isnt "working on your car" just cleaning parts that dont need to be cleaned, i mean if its really dirty and preventing damage to the engine i get it, but cleaning the fucking engine bay can do more harm then good if you dont know what you are doing.
I always come back to the Ole Chris Fix videos 😊
just picked up a 2000 Ranger with 225k miles on it. You can guess easily that majority of the parts needed replaced. But i snagged it for $800, and it ran, had a new timing belt, and some other new minor parts. watched some videos, replaced the entire front suspension due to rust and bad ball joints, new spark plugs, wires, and ignition coils, new exhaust due to the old one having holes through it, and a new power steering pump. It runs and rides great now!
Watched the coolant flush video, about to do that in the coming week, watching this video now to clean the engine bay because there's oil and dirt nearly everywhere, so I need to find leaks lol.
Keep up the great work dude. I'll never stop watching 👍
Thank you Chris for creating a very informative video. I am SO GLAD and waited to view this video prior to cleaning my 5 year old Toyota Tundra's Engine bay. Its quite dusty and is needs a good cleaning. I now feel confident about not messing up anything with the engine if I carefully follow your Great advice. I appreciate you!!

Such a great video! Been thinking about doing this for a while, and thanks to you it's going to get done! I need to replace a lot of rusty nuts and bolts too.

@@vinyltapelover why skateboarders tho?
@@meepowned4613 Maybe I could have said vintage Union skatesJ ust having some fun...don't take it seriously.
probably someone that does not think that permanent marker is good way to fix rust marks in your car.
Bad news: it'll take me 17 hours to accomplish this because of my OCD, and if my wife sees it, she'll expect just as much detail on the bathroom.
That comment made laugh hard. I know the feeling bro
Tell her to clean the bathroom herself.....
lol
Why cant i like this comment twice
Chris Fix: Don't have a wife.
Stop, straight just hold up. You have been explaining the car to me for 5 min, and I already understand so much more then I have ever. I came here for satisfying cleaning and I am impressed with what I found in its place! Thank you for teaching me so much and not even meaning to!
Chris is amazing. He explained everything in good detail. Thanks brother
Did this on my 22 year old truck that was used exclusively on dirty and muddy roads, never had its engine bay cleaned, pretty much as bad as you could have it. And it turned out fantastic. Extremely good video Chris🤘🤘
How long did it take you?
@@johnbaker6466 honestly about 4-5 hours😭 but it was worth it
@@macs2765 thanks for the reply! Nice to see something realistic, I know it was probably bad but I’m sure for a first timer it could end up taking a lot longer than what he’s saying!
Ah man i would have loved to see the before and after of this
@macs2765 how did you get the mud out of your radiator? Mine has a ton of mud caked on the back of it (facing the engine) and I think it’s starting to make my engine overheat. I wish @chrisfix showed the cleaning of the muddy truck’s engine bay and showed how to wash out the radiator and fans, etc. from caked on mud.
Dude, I know that the vast majority of comments all say this same thing, but seriously, thank you for making these. You are truly doing a service to vehicle owners everywhere, and you're doing a fantastic job of demystifying car repair. Thank you for the work you're doing, and I wish you many continued years of great success!
Just found this today, bought my first ever mustang a few months ago and watching this now has made me want to start working on it even more now
Im blown away by this very inteeligent tutorial and polite talking jeez. U born for this.
I hope you get a lot of money off this video, I can tell a lot of hard work and time was added to the video.
Thanks a lot Eduardo! The biggest reward is you guys learning and enjoying the video! I love getting the before and after pics you guys send me after watching a vid!
ChrisFix I'm still waiting for the wheel spacer video lol
Eduardo Rodriguez this is why he missed to upload every week
This is about my 14th time watching this.... Its just so satisfying as a car guy
Glad you are enjoying the video!
Same, probably watched it 100 times haha and shared it a few too😍
Coulda super cleaned two engine bays by now!
that is better than any self help video. If everyone watched it the world would be a better place. great to see someone who cares so much, knows what they are doing and does a great job.
I'm not even a car guy and it's still super satisfying
im super glad you make videos like this! i'm doing a restoration on an 88 ford and the engine bay is soo dirty. It was so overwhelming but seeing this video makes me way more confident
I'm glad the video gave you the confidence to do this on your Ford! And that sounds like a fun project!
@@chrisfix It's fun but she's giving me a run for my money haha
40 year old woman, and im suddenly watching your videos for information and for relaxation ha ha, you have a lovely calm demenour. Also i changed my own spark plugs because of you. You deserve every follower.

Please do a video on super cleaning the interior!
Just pour the water in it until it fills to the top of the windows.
Then start the whipers and open the trunk to let it all out.
This should do it.
*Don't do that*
Use a high pressure washer then use your microfiber towels
ua-cam.com/video/p3TPPGb1X8A/v-deo.html this ought to work. Just wear your swim suit
This video is so well done. Chris, you explained every task and editing is satisfactory.
When I was younger and cared I used to keep the engine bay on my 67 Plymouth super clean. I also did all my own maintenance and repairs. When I got older I had a trusted mechanic do all the work on my car. Except for cleaning. But my mechanic told me not to clean the engine anymore. My now old car (not the Plymouth) sometimes leaked fluids and not super cleaning the engine made it easier to see the source of any leaks. And I wasn’t going to any more cruise nights and lifting the hood to show off my shiny engine.
the excitement in your voice is hyping me up to clean my non-existent car
Same! ;-;
Me to hahaha
lol, me too mate.
Same here
Me too

Same here man, Chris just has one of those voices I can listen to for several videos straight and his videos almost always work perfectly for what I’m doing.. he also almost always answers my DMs, comments, and more so even though he’s popular he feels like a real person. I find myself watching his videos even when I’m not doing work! Haha thanks Chris I hope we can meet some day!

Hey Chris, this is Ashish from India. I am new car owner and was wondering how to clean engine bay. Your video tutorial helped me a lot. Thanks!
I’m a woman and I can honestly say this is way more enjoyable to watch than a make up tutorial! Excellent video, Thanks! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Chris: "This should take you 2 hours"
Me: This little maneuver is gonna cost us 51 years
I promise that this won't take as long as you think!
@@chrisfix
Ok, 50 years.
You don't sound so bad for a man pushing 120
🤣
It took me more than 4 hours, but I knew it would. I always multiply my time estimates by 2 (my wife says it should be 3).
Hey Chris, your videos are so incredibly helpful! I’m detailing two vehicles to sell and your information will help me with my goal! Thank you!
Thanks a lot!
Gawd-I am SO excited I stumbled across this channel ! I’m
