@Car Cleaning Guru no way. Not a robot personality. Your narration isnt just typical explanation in other channels detailing videos, but yours is a journey and story we are being told. Its descriptive, it teaches, and its informative, not full of garbage. Always look forward to your vids.
Great job. I usually do this every time i change from summer to winter tires or vice versa. I use silicone spray as a sort of dressing and water dispersant on the plastic and rubber parts, instead of the water based dressing, as i think it lasts a bit longer and can actually help with keeping suspension bushings soft and flexible. Further more I use some aerosol cavity wax where i can fit the nozzle in and usually give my rusty metal components a very quick lick of spray paint.
I found that cleaning arches is more important than just making them look nice but for keeping suspension components working well. I had coilovers that squeeked and found that cleaning all the crap out of them helped a lot
Hey Joe, really enjoyed that. I have the same Tein coilovers as you on my CRZ. I plan to do this in spring and remove the liner to treat any rust hiding behind them and a bit of underseal. Be sure to watch out for that video. Lots more crz content to come
Great video! Love the voice! Have I mentioned before now that you should consider voice acting. Your voice is easy on the ears. Water wasting is only mentioned by those around the globe living in aired climates. Here in Canada we have lots of water, but also use lots of road salts that rush out our vehicles. Use all the water you need to get all those road contaminants off of your car!
Nice job on both the wheel and the arch, did a qiuck job on mine last week with the wheels on just using an underbody lance, couldn't believe the amount of crud that came out
Thanks Joe, just a UK diy driveway detailer of my own family fleet, I have been very pleased with 🚗 Gods range, for all round value at my local Tetrosyl car parts shop, in terms of 💷vfm and the off the shelf bigger volumes of their potions. I wish more shops not just online sold 5ltrs as well because fortnightly 🚐🚙🚗 family fleet clean day requires semi bulk useage, but not needing to go OTT buying 25ltr size product. Their red diesel looking pre wash and purple bleeding Iron fall out I rate highly too. I cannot praise Bilt Hamber snow foam enough for leaving such a nice gloss on the paintwork👌and BH’s protection products to motor underside and bay area metals also is top notch as you so elequently spoke about. All the best for this years content CG.
Looks great. I do the same in Spring after snow is done and sand is cleaned off the roads. Interesting to learn about Atom Mac. We only recently have we been able to get BH in the US. The problem with rusted rotors has only had one solution for us and that’s Hyde’s Serum Rust Stopper. It a clear liquid that works well to cut down on rust after washing wheels, but it’s very expensive. Currently it’s $90 for I US gallon (128 fl oz). The Atom Mac is $45 for 500ml (16.9 fl oz). So it’s considerably cheaper when you figur the Atom Mac is a concentrate and can actually make 340 oz at 5% dilution. The Hyde’s is pre diluted. Looking at your rotors it it seems to work at least as well. I’ll have to give it a try when my Hyde’s runs out. I usually only do a light mist to the rotors when wet. It looks like you coat the rotors heavily with it. Is that what it calls for? What dilution do you use it at?
Listening to Joe talk is the most incredible thing, I feel like I've learned a life time of new phrases and knowledge just from these videos, easily the most informative and entertaining car detailing channel out there.
Great work, Joe.👍I cleaned the arches on my daily early autumn, then sprayed Bilt Hamber Dynax UC into the arches and along the sills to give them some protection throughout the winter.👍
Very enjoyable viewing! I stumbled on a 7- year old episode yesterday, after searching Volvo C30. You've come a long way since then! .....Although, you've maintained the same presentation style which is very commendable. Kind of a trademark. Your narration put me in mind of Ringo Starr narrating the Thomas The Tank Engine series of old - and I mean that in a complimentary way. You would be a good narrator beyond your "specialist subject"!
I liked that repair you performed on the rim "rash". I "bumped" in to the curb and did similar damage to my wife's fairly new car and she's pretty angry with me. I'll try that and see if she calms down :)
Once its all clean, does the rubbers, bushings & boots etc need any lubication, like silicone spary or ATP-205, or this cleaning doesn't hurt the rubbers?
As a 'Guru', it would be great to see you catch as much of those chemicals before they go down the drain and into the environment. A start from someone would be great. The future nature will love you.
when your not into your Detailing most will think of this as overkill . better to tell those people it's to stop rot happening . somewhere you won't always see but it's knowing the it's done , clean and dressed that gives the owner a lift .
Waste of water? If I recall after living there for nearly four years I don't think that a water shortage is coming anytime soon. Still good to conserve as much as feasible though. Looks great. I would think that you get top money for your cars once you decide to sell. I loved your 370z.
I've been pondering how to clean the wheel arches and suspension on my 02 z06 since last year. I made this too complicated by lifting the whole car off the ground. I finally figured out how when you did one wheel at a time. LOL Best of luck and GB!
I think the wheel scuff repair came up great! I guess you could mask it off and give it a couple of coats of clear & polish to blend if you were worried about it oxidizing - but it's such a small area probably not worth it.
Well done Joe...👍 another great video... What you could fit on your coilovers are some suspension socks they certainly do keep the coilovers a lot cleaner..👍😎
i do love how everyone has been brain washed into thinking you can actually "waste" water, Water is indestructible, it may change form but will always turn back into water, any water that is used in any way shape or form also re-enters the water cycle so how can something that you cannot destroy and always enters back into an infinite cycle be wasted...
Yeh I’ve replied with pretty much this before. I think what they mean is clean, treated water but still, plenty of pure stuff falls from the sky on an almost daily basis here.
Great job. But in my opinion there's no sense in cleaning the wheelhouse without taking out the plastic cover. The really dirty parts are covered behind them and cause rust.
Great job 👏👏. But that car needs treating with Lanoguard. You can see in places on the rear arches that corrosion is beginning to set in. It is a Honda after all.
Unfortunately i ended up in an overspray removal loop. Diligently re-cleaning the wheel arches to remove overspray from the car clean before then cleaning the car to remove the overspray from the wheel arch clean. This loop went on for 4 exhausting days before the water company cut off my supply.
Nice job on the CRZ's arches. Are you planning on applying a ceramic coating to the paint in the good weather, or will you be going with something else?
Car guru. Quick q. Given you squirt about a thousand times a day (see Big Train bathroom sketch), what is your favourite go-to trigger sprayer and bottle?
That was the original plan but it was going to be a nightmare with ten year old brittle plastic clips and rusty old screws so didn’t bother plus half of the fronts were exposed anyway 🤷♂️.
4:49 - no complaints from me as Thames water left a 4ft fountain to flow for 3 solid days across the road from me. No, it wasn't a cracked pipe caused by ice, THEY caused it when doing some work and just went home at 2pm the first day it happened. God knows how much water was wasted unnecessarily then.
Love your videos. Youre teaching me a whole lot. But, I may not have seen it in the video, but please use a jack stand. It's worth your life and limbs.
Pity we have a lot of minus in the winter so can't wash the shit off. But thats fine as there is literally no road salt used when below -3 and the shitsaltmudice doesn't melt and rust your car totally.
This guy needs to do audiobooks; there is so much personality in his voice.
Robot personality 🙈

I could fall asleep to his voice, not to sound weird or anything 🤣🤣🤣
I was shocked when i finally saw his face for the first time
@@Uglier.
I agree
The voice and face just don't match in my mind.
I’d recommend getting behind the arch liner. I’ve seen soil and green shoots hiding in them.
My man there are very few things on UA-cam as satisfying as your wheel arch cleaning videos. Thanks for the drop

good job, I do the same thing up here in Canada during the spring to remove built up dirt/salt and other junk to help prevent rust.
I absolutely love wheel arch cleaning!, should be more of it on UA-cam ❤

i do this at least once a year after winter, but i also remove the inner liner to remove dirt and other grime as that is what would cause rust etc.

Mate, I live in Devon, it’s been raining since September so your all good re water use 👍😂
Fastest trigger finger in the west!! Greetings from Florida
Great work and nice video, your car definitely stands out from the crowd.
Nice little monday evening treat 👌
Looking forward to next month's viewings 🤙
Great work, Joe.👍I cleaned the arches on my daily early autumn, then sprayed Bilt Hamber Dynax UC into the arches and along the sills to give them some protection throughout the winter.👍
Man I miss my CRZ. Such a fun little car!
Wheel arch cleaning videos are the best 👌 more please!!
Top job fella , considering buying one of those kranzel washers for car and general use. Stay lucky!
Great video and commentary. Pragmatic and informative. Thank you for sharing. Lovely job on the scuff.
Very enjoyable viewing!

Nature loves me already as my ecological footprint is way, way lower than most people’s despite me washing cars in a rainy county!
Joe, came out great! Just did the same process on my red FA5 Si !
Have you ever removed the screws to get that plastic cladding off and clean underneath? I think rust likes to start under there.
when your not into your Detailing most will think of this as overkill . better to tell those people it's to stop rot happening . somewhere you won't always see but it's knowing the it's done , clean and dressed that gives the owner a lift .
Excellent job Joe! This is what I’m planning to do on my 16 years old Mercedes 🤩
U r a true legend man! Keep it up!
Verbal and cleaning skills legend.
Now that’s putting love into your car, Great Job!!

im glad we dont have to do any of that here in Texas! my 1988 Yugo and 1989 Nissan look brand new underside!!
Great job as always, does the dressing not attract all the road grime and cling onto it?

While yes i agree to a very large extent, you still need to expend energy to clean the majority of the water before it is released in any other form
@@Zoranurai13 nah. Depends what you do with it. When the water evaporates it cleans itself in effect.
Yeh I’ve replied with pretty much this before. I think what they mean is clean, treated water but still, plenty of pure stuff falls from the sky on an almost daily basis here.
@@CarCleaningGuru you’re also surrounded by quite a bit of it.
Great job. But in my opinion there's no sense in cleaning the wheelhouse without taking out the plastic cover. The really dirty parts are covered behind them and cause rust.
The wheels on your daily are 🔥👍. They remind me of Ferrari wheels.
Yeh they’re supposed to be 458 spider reps, just quite a bit smaller!
Nice job, Joe!
Rain just stopped here in CA time to clean my car🤣
Love the attention to detail!
🤣🤣🤣☠️🤡🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
🤯Nice job! Those wheels look brand new!
Class, we have enough rain in the uk so I like the water usage
Can I take this video for my English classes? perfect pronunciation and entonation 🤣🤣🤣
Did you gather a decent audience, when you vacuumed those back wheel arches?
Great job 👏👏.
But that car needs treating with Lanoguard.
You can see in places on the rear arches that corrosion is beginning to set in.
It is a Honda after all.
I’d love to see an ‘Guru at Pebble Beach’ vid! 😂

We’ve all been there!
I believe joe that with your voice; you could voice even the Bible in audio 😉.
Nice job on the CRZ's arches. Are you planning on applying a ceramic coating to the paint in the good weather, or will you be going with something else?
Do you get an answer ?
Wish I had a car I cared this much about
I used to do this as a job, to wheel wells of aircraft when I was younger.
You’re wrong, I’d happily watch all four wheels being cleaned.
This
Ever thought of fitting alloy gators to the rims, protects against scuffs.Tony D.
I love you videos ! Can u please tell me what brush was the purple one you used on the engine bay ? It looks super sweet 💜
Legend. Great video as usual
Great stuff has always. Cheers from Detroit.
PLEASE upload a full detail video 😁👌
I must say that you should investigate / pursue stage work or voice over employment with your guru gig. Perfect vids from original 1st.
Care to treat your CRZ to Bilt Hamber rust-proofing products? would make a great video to watch!
Car guru. Quick q.
Given you squirt about a thousand times a day (see Big Train bathroom sketch), what is your favourite go-to trigger sprayer and bottle?
Hi mate great video as always, I'm looking for something to protect some new matte wheels before I fit them to the car ,any ideas please
Excellent. Will you be attending Waxstock this year?
Nice vid guru
Great job, I think you should have taken the wheel arch liners off to clean behind them
That was the original plan but it was going to be a nightmare with ten year old brittle plastic clips and rusty old screws so didn’t bother plus half of the fronts were exposed anyway 🤷♂️.
Really got to do my 2015 Honda civic touring because it’s filthy with winter grime and it black so looks terrible 😢
Do you recommend washing in cold or warm water?
I've given up this year
4:49 - no complaints from me as Thames water left a 4ft fountain to flow for 3 solid days across the road from me.
No, it wasn't a cracked pipe caused by ice, THEY caused it when doing some work and just went home at 2pm the first day it happened. God knows how much water was wasted unnecessarily then.
I always think that some of that elbow grease should be moved to power tools. at least inside the wheel arch area where it doesn't cause problems.
Love your videos. Youre teaching me a whole lot. But, I may not have seen it in the video, but please use a jack stand. It's worth your life and limbs.
Where are you based and how do I book? Thanks.
Where can we book in with yourself?
thank you bro, amazing videos
Great work
Love the videos
I dont understand why the rears are always more dirty! Front is much cleaner!
great video, awesome car !
A while back you mentioned being interested in the USDM rear seat delete, would you be interested in me trying to source and send it to you?
Any one have advice on treating/repairing the clear coat that's started to disappear on my bonnet?
Thames Water has issued a hose pipe warning just based on this video alone.
have you considered painting the calipers/upgrading them to brembos etc
I wouldn’t bother painting these ones but would like to upgrade if I keep the car. I hear DC5 Brembos can work but aren’t easy to find.
@@CarCleaningGuru yeah they could look quite tacky just painted. have you considered EBC
Pity we have a lot of minus in the winter so can't wash the shit off. But thats fine as there is literally no road salt used when below -3 and the shitsaltmudice doesn't melt and rust your car totally.
Can you remove somehow the rust over the area on which the rims are placed?
This is a good question. Will cleaning this area lessen the clamping force needed?
Great job 👍
Nice job. Now you forced me to clean the ones on my car... 🙂
great video
big thanks!!
Nice car! Never sell it, just keep it.
Let me know if you ever sell them wheels.
Cant whait to do it to my car ones the sunshine come out!
Here they pay attention to the car under the wheels more than I do on the outside.
