Stay tuned for more crazy!
OG wash and talks don’t ever get old. Keep them coming Matt 👍
When Matty said it was early for him he wasn't kidding. The sun hasn't even come up yet and hes already washing the truck lol. Good to see you back in it!
I’m totally agreeing with the early wash program, it’s an absolute winner for someone who has been getting up at 4:00am most of their working life, and unfortunately it doesn’t stop on the weekends. The best thing about it for me is the piece and quiet ( apart from the pressure washer) and the fact that it’s all done and dusted by 7:00 am , and I’m ready for breakfast. Thanks for the early wash video Matt .
Man I wish I was an early bird that sounds great but even when I did 6am starts in work for 2 years every weekend my body would need a reset. Guess some people are naturally early birds and others night owls, myself being the latter
"One of these little bros is in there", Matt is so accidentally funny sometimes. I love it
Gotta love Matt using $40-50 of detailing product on a single wash 😂. This is detailing in 2023
I spend $150 at the self serve carwash to wash my truck when I get back from work. $50 in detailing products is nothing to get this type of quality lol
@@remichiasson4602 is this satire ? If not how tf do you spend 150 dollars at a self serve ???
@@remichiasson4602 weird flex but ok
@@sk8ordie4691 spend 2 hours washing caked on mud off the entire thing
No he used 10$ at most which is still less than drive through wash minus the scratching
Glad to see W9 worked for you. Sorry about the glass. We all live and learn. Make the mistake, fix it, learn from it and move on. That's the spice of life. I used W9 the same way you did but used a wash pad to agitate and did one panel at a time, rinsing before moving on. Followed up with gsf/gs quick wash to help neutralize any leftover W9 as a precautionary step. No issues.
Most of the time I don't pre-wash but when my cars are really dirty (like last weekend), hitting them with Touchless first makes a HUGE difference. I turned into a believer. And it doesn't cost that much when you use it maybe once a month, if that.
Gotta love a little acid burn on the glass to wake ya up in the morning
Pre-washing definitely makes a difference. I've seen demos with even just diluted onr sprayed on a panel and pressure washed off next to a control panel with just the rinse and the onr side was substantially cleaner. You should try a little forensic detail-esque demo to prove (or disprove) it to yourself.
Yeah but Matt doesn’t believe in prewash. I remember all his rants about it and how it doesn’t work.
Matt have you ever used Dr. Beasley's Ceramic Body Wash? Unlike the name it does not leave ceramic protection. The name is just meant to state it is coating safe. It smells like a high end cologne, foams up nicely and very good lubricity. You may like this one more than Reset.
Carpro descaler spot remover is a lot more gentle and it won’t stain your glass
Love a good wash video on a Sunday morning
Vonixx makes a couple of great products. Their ceramic engine coating and Headlight coating is great. Spray and rinse wheel sealant, Their iron remover is about as cheap as any on the market is super thick so it dwells longer. And there's a few more standouts as well. All really well priced too.
Early bird wash and talk. Perfection.
I wonder whether the reason it affected the coating on the glass is simply because the "coating" may not be a completely impervious barrier - it probably fills the nooks & crannies, rather than form a an actual "layer". I doubt whether you'd be able to achieve a streak free finish if you were to lay down enough material to form a thick layer.
IMHO, you should probably study, purchase and sell an OG Giantex non slip work platform when washing your truck. That flimsy step stool that you are using looks very unsafe when washing your raised Ford truck. Please be safe.
Thanks mom. If Matt hasn't figured out how to not fall off of a step stool, how would he not also fall off of a platform?
Oh boy...gotta read the directions Matty.
I do think you would see additional gains from claying the paint. When it goes that long without being washed, all that crap on the paint really clogs up the coating.
The Ultra Clay towel from TRC is very safe and effective. Definitely much less chance of marring than a gloved hand. I prefer to use it from my bucket of ONR or Absolute at 128:1, but it can also be used from your soap bucket after washing the surface. No pressure, just lightly glide it across the surface and you won't get any marring.
Good ol’ wash and talk, best segments on the channel.
Sweet truck! Nice to see it cleaned up!
Yeah that stuff is basically wheel acid so you have to be super careful on glass. When I use it, leave my car wet and spray once or twice on a panel and work it in with my mitt for like 30 seconds to a min then rinse and move to another panel.
Though carpro has a new soap specifically for this purpose called descale too
Hey Matt,
I did the same thing you did. I sprayed the mineral spot water remover onto the glass on my BMW, M2 and it created all these horrible mineral spots all over my glass. I had to polish my glass. Don’t get it on your glass. .
I can't imagine washing my truck without an extendable pole for the high stuff, hood, gate and panels. I wash and maintain the pad, and do use the hand towel quite bit to agitate, but that's a lot of surface area!
This was really funny, lol. Always read the instructions! Haha
Glad your enjoying Bilt Hamber Matt and collaborating to get the cost down for USA import improvement. Maybe Peter can do an BHOG special. It's not pronounced BOG - toilet 🚽🪠. It's Bilt Hamber Obsessed Garage special.
🇺🇲🇬🇧.
With the Bilt Hamber Ive seen a few use it in an Ik sprayer. Its much easier to work out PIR and you dont use as much product so much more cost effective
Loving the return of the wash series 👍
It would be cool if you tried out Koch Chemie's pre-washes, Active Foam and Super Foam. AF is 9.5 PH I believe and SFn is 12 PH. They are also concentrated like you are talking about just like GSF. I think it would be worth checking out.
Koch Chemie Multi Star N is even better for prewash. Multi Star N in the US is the same with Vorreiniger B in Europe. It’s the strongest alkaline prewash in the market with VDA Certification meaning it’s safe for all delicate materials of a car. Contrary to popular belief. Koch Chemie products needs to be diluted using PIR the same as Bilt Hamber! Yes I know there’s nowhere in the instructions or website of KCX that says their products needs to be diluted using PIR but all the guys over in Europe use it this way. A good example for this argument is GSF. The 20ml on the instructions is for foaming pump sprayer that’s why all the guys who tried it in the foam cannon got disappointed with the foam and need to use like more than 100ml to foam decently. Remember the pressure washer is diluting it with more water with whatever solution you have in the foam cannon. 20ml of GSF with 1L water is 1:50 or 2% PIR.
Forensic Detail sold me on the prewash process. I just picked up Touchless. I just wish we could get it as cheap as they can over there
Hey Matt, new marketing idea… You mentioned the OG logo on the truck. You need to add an OG blue or pink “*” after the logo to indicate “The Wife’s Vehicle”. You could sell them as a set or as an add-on for all those people who want to clearly delineate vehicles.
*This warning includes, but is not limited to: food crumbs in every nook and cranny, muddy foot prints in places where shoes don’t belong, and fingerprints all over the windows at all times.
Hopefully that will help save the brand reputation .😂
This wash gave me "Washing in a thunderstorm" vibes from years ago!!
Dang, that’s truck is massive!! Lol great video Matt 👍🏾
I agree with Pre Washes Matt, they are hit and miss and it’s a extra step without much noticable benefit. Yeah if you are washing client cars day to day and they are destroyed it’s worth it, however when you washing cars once or twice a month and keeping them indoors, it’s not necessary and a waste. Also I haven’t finished the vid yet, but would Carpro Descale be worth a shot?
Matt is a tall big Man and yet standing next to this Ford F150 he looks short and small 🤣🤣🤣
Cheers from Sydney Australia
Dyi water spot remover can be applied to a wet car an rinsed off, don’t know any other brands that allow that technique
Have you tried Glaco Ultra on the glass? I know Wolfs is your holy grail but I found the Glaco much easier to wipe, more durable, and more hydrophobic while only needing one coat. I haven’t noticed any issues with wiper streaking or chattering and it doesn’t have the haze where you can see your application pattern like I’ve had with other glass “coatings”
Washing cars after dark, love it!
He was actually washing before the sun came up!
Touchless wash that’s a trigger warning for me lol it reminds me of those automated car washes
That tire and rubber cleaner looks like a good candidate for a Solo sprayer.
Good call
1:42 - "Shoot, this [orifice] might be in there permanently." in front of a pile of Milwaukee power tools, no doubt one of them an impact driver that would make quick work of the job if needed. >_
Love your wash and talk vids Matt. Prewash always a good idea. Why wouldn’t you want a slightly cleaner car for contact wash right? Just one bit of feedback… there’s a whirring noise being picked up when you’re in the garage. Anything you can do to remove that from the audio / switch off the machine causing it?
It was Ego battery charging.
Matt. In regards to the dual pressure washer setup, I wonder if you can do it with the Active or the CAT pressure washers? What you think?
Should work. We will try it at some point.
Was hoping to hear more about plans, business, destination og, etc. Still a good warsh and talk though just wanted to let you know the part I enjoy most.
I was a bit too focused on the task at hand on this one.
@@ObsessedGarage no worries, thanks for the reply!
Hopefully the acid in the water spot remover didn’t burn/etch the glass. I made that mistake one time with an acid not meant for glass and had to replace my rear windshield because the acid burning was so bad…
I removed some water spots from the windshield with vinegar and elbow grease before with no visible sign of damage
Apologize if I missed it. What about the finish on the TEs that you don't like specifically?
It is matte, but won't accept any kind of protection, so it water spots easily and holds onto rust and brake dust.
You should design commercial inside/outside Obsessed Garage wash bays, each location have a small retail store for detailing supplies sales and build franchises across the country.
What was the issue or what happened to the MTM plugs that made them need to be replaced? Also any plans to put some lighting in your wash area so that you can see things when doing your wash?
They don't need to be, but the Mosmatic engagement is much nicer. I'm building a pole barn dedicated wash bay soon.
So if you’re getting the Rivian as the family truck later this month, why are you doing anything to the Raptor? Aren’t you going to be selling that?
Keeping it
Gotta wake up early to beat the Florida sun
What dilution do you use for that Atom Mac??
I’ve followed the instructions on the bottle and it does nothing to stop the rust 🤷🏻♂️
Straight
Are you going with Falken Wildpeaks on the new wheels or switching back to BFG's?
If I do 17s, BFG. 18s Toyo AT
I don't want to lecture you or sound like a smart ass, but if you really have mineral deposits affecting the coatings performance you should use a sour-ph shampoo like CarPro Descale or Labocosmetica Purifica. And did you try CarPro Retyre by any chance? Heard its a great Tire & Rubber cleaner
Descale doesn't seem to help in my experience with clogged coatings. Have used a 1000ml of it and it doesn't do much. Once again that's just my experience.
After spraying spot remover in your first towel, was the second towel wet to remove the chemical? Then dry with another? Thx Matty
That's what you are supposed to do.
Do you only use reset to help bring the hydrophobic properties back after the pores get clogged up?
That's what it is supposed to do, aid in reduction of contamination build up.
Late to the party- what soap is that?
Matt get rid of that front bumper
What brand of shorts are you wearing? Thanks!
Yep, 5.11 Tactical. They don't make these any longer.
Time to sell the truck
👍
I have a (probably stupid) question about using double power washers: aren't you limited by the amount of pressure/flow that your water supply can provide?
Most hose bibs will flow at least 10gpm, so not an issue at all.
I don't remember if they tested using the bucket fill method with a pressure guage to measure the output when the second pump was installed. Even at 4gpm, that is not much water needed. Unless you've got a load in the washing machine and someone taking a shower, I doubt the pumps would starve. Even if you've got some 50-year-old supply water piping, getting 4gpm input to the pumps shouldn't be a problem.
Hey Matt. Which car wash shampoo did you say was better than reset, I didn't catch the name
GSF
🤩
I have to ask... why does it always sound like you are out of breath buddy?
DB of the auto audio set up he uses. That along with the placement of it.
@@MrDro1128 Bro that has nothing to do with it. He always sounds like he is out of breath.
Ha, ha... First problem is that I'm a mouth breather, and I have a mic right next to my mouth. I'm working on a nasal breathing exercise called Freespira for 28 days. Do this experiment. Talk for 10 minutes straight while performing a task and record it. On a side note, come to HQ. Let's run a 5k together to ease your worries.
@@ObsessedGarage Let's do it buddy... I love running 5ks. Walk in the park. What is your 40 time?
I could be wrong but it sure sounds like you’re charging your ego batteries in the background…
13 minute mark, isn't that ALARM annoying. Lol
Birds.
You got an extremely vocal cardinal, trying to be heard.
