- In this video I go over some of the cleaning products I use on a daily basis to help keep the dump truck I drive looking clean. Please share your favorite cleaning tips here. Thanks for watching. Shares are appreciated.
As one driver to another, you are a great ambassador for truck drivers and the trucking industry of america
That means a lot, thank you.
Dude i am from Lawrence, my very best friend Joan passed away a few years back, he became a truck driver because of your videos, and i am proud to inform you that because of you i am also attending Nettts to get my CDL i am a trucker at heart and you inpire me to be one of the best out there.
Oh my gosh. Thank you for letting me know this. May Joe rest in peace. Stay in touch and good luck.
@@TheBostonTrucker i have tried to catch your attention on the road so many times hahaha i drive a box truck and i see you almost every Wednesday in the Metrowest area if you ever see a Colony foods truck with the airhorn going crazy at you just know it's a guy who looks up to you and is happy to see you around!
This is a great story. Good luck driver. I am trucker since 2000
It’s funny that you made this video because I was wondering a few days ago what products you use on your rig, great vid Mike!
My products change over time but these are what I'm using right now. I'd like to know some of your secret cleaning tips.
Boston Trucker always Great to see a Fellow Driver take Pride in his Truck
Thanks Mike
The best teaching and learning of the trucking industry is experience yourself out on the road the best classroom is out on the road
This is my favorite video on UA-cam hands down.
Oh really? Thank you ☺️
The mop and glow has blown my mind. Great tip Mike
Happy to hear that.
Full credit to you for keeping your ride looking fresh
Thank you
I don't have my cdl (yet) but it's reassuring to see a driver who actually cares about his appearance and how clean the truck is. I spot trailers at Tyson and I see it all lol
Thanks I appreciate it! I actually use to haul out of a bunch of Tyson plants in Arkansas and Texas back in the day.
@@TheBostonTrucker that's awesome!
Mop and glo. I've used for years. Does awesome job.
Mike you must have the cleanest truck ever lol.
I just try hard thank you
@@TheBostonTrucker your welcome my friend I'm getting there watching your videos from the beginning a little at a time lol.
Definitely need daily videos! Let's Go!!
The best classroom is out on the road itself
He's from boooston where they park the car next to the barn
Keep that truck clean. Love it!
So I'm guessing schools dont teach them how to advertise for money 😂
Awesome video and information enjoy video
Glad you did that video gives me idea what's good this side of the pond.
I was getting to believe you had a magic box with the amount you was pulling out..
😆 I've got more stored in the tool box!
@@TheBostonTrucker well show us. Do you pray that Mop N go on
@@peteraplin4188 I wet a micro fiber and rub it on, round and round, don't get it on the time it's tough to get off.
Excellent video Mike 👍
Thank you Kevin
Boston-Mudcake-trucker!
Moar, you ol' son of a gun you!
Appreciate the tips mike
My pleasure.
The box with no bottom. Can’t believe you kept pulling things out!! Lol 🔨Down.
Hahaha 😅
Keeping a clean truck helps with DOT I've found. It shows you care and maintain your vehicle resulting in little to no violations to be found, so they dont pull out that fine tooth comb trying to screw you over.
Exactly correct, they always leave me alone.
I second that. Mines always clean and in 30 years out here I can count the number of DOT inspections I've had on one hand. They leave me alone.
I’ve found the same in my 25 yrs of driving
good looking truck,keep it up. ☝
That dang gum mop and glo, just tried it. Amazed.
I'm happy to hear that.
Excellent Work dedication you can tell a lot about a man by the way the truck looks hats off to you your company should double your wage
Thank you so very much you're to kind.
Thank you driver. I am O/O I am searching for not expensive but good working product.
Glad I could help.
Great info.
RainX works good on aluminum to keep off water spots
Great tip thanks!
I am have a dump truck myself. However with mop and glow the mud won’t stick to tires??
The dust won't stick, mud will still make it dirty but when you wash it off, the mopnglow shine will still be there.
I take pride cleaning my Pepsi truck. I'm going to get the mop n glo. What would you use on white steel rims?
I'd use a good glass cleaner and then wax it.
Id use a can of spray paint since they seem to rust out all the time lol at least in the saltbelt
@@ricochetey 5 out of 6 are perfect. My company won't replace the 6th one, It's sick.
@@jacklevesque Hey if the wheel still turns round and round and holds air its still good, right?! Lol big company logic
@@ricochetey true dat
Informational thanks !!
You are Welcome my Friend
To test the static guard, before you go into a dusty area just rub it on half your hood and see if there is a difference when you leave the area. I'll try it next time I go into Odessa to a drill site.
I just threw mine out. Pledge is better on paint.
@@TheBostonTrucker I guess I’ll hafta try Pledge. The original owner of my truck swore by it.
I'm going to try the mop an glow and the anti static stuff
I have a question about the mop & glo. I used it on my tires this morning. I started on the driver's side then worked my way around. By the time I got to the driver's side again, the driver's side had a brown residue and was peeling. Like dead skin. Have u ever had that problem?
I haven't had that happen. Curious, were your tires dirty before? I just soak it in a microfiber rub it around and around and it works. You might have to do it a few times to get the full effect.
What is extraffert? Where can I get that product?
Jk. Love the truck man. Great job. Definitely gonna try the mop n glo.
🔥🔥🔥
Nice clean truck but when do you work seems to me that you spend all day cleaning your truck
Nailed it! All I do is clean my truck.
@@TheBostonTrucker I keep my truck clean as well but mine is a company truck if I would own it then maybe
@@millionmiler Mine is a company truck as well.
The way I see it is that the truck was given to me as a trust. When I first got my company truck, it was filthier than filth itself. Instead of thinking to myself “I don’t make enough money, it’s not worth it, it’s not mine, etc. I left it in the shop to get detailed once and stayed on top of it myself after that. The secret to cleanliness is to keep up with it instead of waiting a whole month or whatever. Small touch ups a couple times a day will do it. Same goes for anything in life really. You are renting your body and one day you will have to give it back too. 🙂
@@KT9040 same here I got new 2019 389 pete where I work in the beginning if the year and I clean it wipe everything down or vacuum the interior at least once a week depending on how dusty the week was but I dont go into showroom detailing yes the company pays for a blue beacon wash once a month and I just pay for rainx and citrus and in between truck gets washed when it rains or at the yard in the wash bay if a company wants to give me a truck that is filthy beyond imagination I love and go somewhere else since that tells me they not gonna give a crap about me anyway since they dont take care of their equipment
Like your videos bro
Thank you
I think Mike is pulling one over on ya with that static guard lol
No I was serious! 😜
@@TheBostonTrucker just added it to my walmart list let's see how it works ! thanks awesome vids btw
What's good for dryed up bugs, like love bugs in Florida?
Thanks, I like watching your videos cause you care about your job.
Mike Lynch I use the foam window cleaner, like he showed, get some scrubby pads and a squeegee. Spray the window, run the scrubby pad over the windows, squeegee it off. Works great.
I run mostly days when the bugs are out so I don't get to many of them to be honest.
The best thing to use on love bugs are dryer sheets. When you're washing the truck, just dunk the sheets in your soap bucket and just nice and easy pressure. Make sure you rinse well. #flanative
I was waiting for you to bring out the Lemon Pledge for the interior
I use that too I was just out.
Hey mike new tire shine trick use baby oil
Oh really?
Yes boss works great 👍🏼
I keep my vodka in the old mop & glo bottles👍
😆
A Jeep video on here suggests using the Pledge on the tires. Anyone tried it? How's it compare to the mop?
I hear it's good on tires.
My brother and his wife collect on default school loans the majority are truck drivers.
I maybe paid $1000 back through my first driving job, but when I left I never heard a word about it or got any mail. That was 12 years ago os it's long gone. I don't know if it ever hit my credit report or not
@@mattdunivan I never knew that collection agencies got involved with truck driving debts until they told me. They said majority of truckers never pay it back. LoL oh well
Good afternoon what’s good for keeping your mud flaps black
I use MopNGlo
Are you doing dumps in Dorchester right now?
More on the mop and glow please.
Posting a video tonight.
Mike, what do you do with your product in the winter? Just let it freeze on the truck or do you take it home or to the shop?
Good question. I would be smart to bring it inside but most of it I leave in the truck. I have had a few bottles crack in a deep freeze.
My question for you is how many loads and or hours a day do you run. I run 12-15 hours a day and my boss won’t let us wash our trucks on double time.
10 hours a day 6 days a week. Some days more some less. I did my time working 100+ hours a week, now I have a better work life balance which is key.
Rubbing Alcohol is great for removing Pine Sap.
You are right it will remove the wax, so you have to spot rewax.
Great tip!
crc brake clean for tree gum I use it on my bulldozers all the time
#prideinyourride #Acardillo&sons #everydayisatruckshow
You got them all!
TheBostonTrucker yay
How do you apply the mop & glow on your tires buddy??
try some spray sealant easiest way to protect the paint just spray on and pressure wash off good for aleast 3-4 months.
What's spray sealant?
@@TheBostonTrucker there are several I like Gyeon Wet Coat.
@@darrenlandis3510 I'll look into this. Thanks
You do an awesome job keeping your truck shining. But I gotta ask do you get any pay for all your hard work polishing their truck. Certainly don't mean to offend you, you keep your rig beautiful
Thank you I appreciate it and no offence taken. Most of my cleaning is done on company time but I don't always put in for my time because I know I'm a little nuts. I like to wash on Sundays because we're closed so it's quiet, I don't turn in my time for that or truck shows but they show they're appreciation to me in plenty of ways.
I wish everyone that drove semi kept their stuff that clean 🧼. It’s called take pride In what you do and don’t be a dirt bag.
That's right!
Sometimes it hard running hard in the northwest during winter seasons bro. You should know how that is being a oregon boy
I’m from RI and currently getting my CDL is your company hiring? Are there any prerequisites?
Experience is the prerequisite and to live within a decent commuting area.
Have you ever tried fast wax in a spray can?
Rain-X Gotta Have It
That's right?
Is there a lazy easy way to do half assed shine on aluminum ....half way to show quality
No sir
All of the "quick polish" sprays at O'Reilly's are junk.
Basic Purple Power is the same thing Blue Beacons use for brightener. It's just heavy duty degreaser
I've tried oven cleaner to cut bad shit
Hey another thing they don't teach you in truck driving school how to use log books or even what a log book is we have a driver on our yard fresh out of school we told him when the computer breaks down use the log book and he looked like weed tried explaining the meaning of life to him he didn't have a clue
You got that right!
😂 like a magical box how deep is this box😂
🤷😁🤣
Go to college they said. You'll get a degree and great job they said. When will they say you will pay student loans until you're 62? If you're lucky and not using your Social Security checks to make Student Loan payments.
They can teach you to drive a truck, but they can't teach you to be a ;Truck Driver: that is born inside or handed down. My dad drove trucks in Europe in the Army WWII, then 38 years with Mobil Oil.. His father started driving horse & wagons (original teamster) Then trucks,, chain drive Macks & Sterlings building roads. I drove semi for 43 years, my brother is still driving. Can't teach that
Ooooooh Yeah
So filthy that truck is cleaner than my f250 after a wash
Thank you 😊
Ocd truck cleaning
No one will ever add the value of their personal time to any equation, lets say $30.00 per hour for an example, the reality is too much for most to comprehend... Total-up all personal hours used for cleaning, maintenance, book keeping, unpaid unexpected layovers, etc., etc.,etc., and see for yourself what little value your shiny truck has to show for itself... Or keep-on polishing your out of control pride/ego along with all that unless chrome.
Are you an owner operater or a company driver?
Company driver
@@TheBostonTrucker your company got really nice equipment
Seen that truck around 495 I believe
@@Romejkl Thank you, I'm very lucky!
Yeah, save your money and go to college get a good paying job..been their done that...😁😁😁😁😎
College to expensive why get a 70k loan to go to college if you spend 4k and get a cdl and make 70k or if you a good owner op gross 250k and net 90k
Yea with all these libturd college nowadays you definitely wont learn shit 😂
Trucking is a lifestyle not a job
You nailed it!
Too many products - Using Soap and Water...
Make a mixture of warm, soapy water. For a cheap, easy brake dust cleaner, try mixing soap and warm water. ...
Give the wheels a quick rinsing. ...
Scrub the brake dust off the alloy wheels. ...
Consider using a washing mitt. ...
Rinse each wheel, removing all soap residue. ...
Repeat the scrubbing process as needed.
Aluminium doesn't get clean with any alkaline based substance such as laundry powder. Use acid-based substances such as citrus juice or white vinegar
(basically, any mild acid). Scrub hard with or boil in a vinegar or lemon juice solution. Might need couple of goes.
To polish aluminum, start by washing it with water and a little dish soap. Then rinse it thoroughly to remove any remaining soap. Next, mix together equal parts water and cream of tartar to make a paste. Rub this mixture onto the aluminum with a soft cloth using small circular motions.
Coat with silacone spray rims and tires by rag - void getting on brakes.
Spray locks, hinges - now wash vehicle with soap, wax and pledge the glass.
Dirty trucks make more money.
How do you figure?
Wasted time. The truck makes money makin miles...not smiles.
A dirty truck is more likely to get pulled over then a clean truck. It's worth the time.
Ridin' Dirty was just a song.
Dirty trucks get pulled in for DOT inspections and that's time and money wasted.
Dislike video!!!! For misleading
He gave you tips, imbecile, what more do you want
