      Feel your pain. A layer of permanently wet, leafy slurry along our road and the salt on the roads in the Scottish Highlands ensure that my van is filthy again the very same day I wash it in winter……I just jet wash the arches, as far underneath as I can get (not very far on a heavily lowered van 🙄)and the worst of it off the bodywork at a jet wash over winter now. Still love watching Heather weave her magic though. ❤

      Genuinely completely agree with you. In the uk I think there’s a solid argument for doing a proper wash and putting something on in Nov, then just wipe lights and numberplate for the next 3 months

      @@owainstravels3381 Yup, tbh I bet these detailers who do it for a living don't keep their private car looking perfect (unless its their work car to show off what they can do), I rarely if ever see a clean car on the roads this time of year. Completely wasted effort, time and expense.

    • @KevinAClassA
      @KevinAClassA Місяць тому +6

      @owainstravels3381 Wrong, I disagree. I have been detailing vehicles for over 45 years, I keep all (3) of my vehicles clean. They get a complete detail every 3 to 4 months and washed every week. It is just how I live, everything must be clean. I spent 12 years in the Marine Corp, maybe that is my issue, but I find nothing wrong with that.
      Have an excellent week.

    Those Michelin Pilot Sports really do seem to like Carscope's Ink tyre dressing. Wasn't sure about the new version of Ink when I opened it as it's much thinner than the old one but it's working just as well plus it gets into all the little areas of the tyre wall better. Need to try that tyre finisher as well to matt the finish down a bit for that OEM plus look. Nice video again Heather.

    Another great video! Thank you for sharing - I too had the same problem 12 months ago when using Gyeon Anti-Fog on one of my cars, it was just so difficult to remove the smearing after it was applied. In the end I used a paper towel to remove as much as possible and then followed up with a slightly damp (with water) Glass Polishing e-Cloth - I'm sure this probably removed all of the product. Now I just make sure that my inner glass is as clean as possible, Bilt Hamber Trace-Less is good for this.

I did a deep clean on the 3 glass last week following your previous procedure i.e wash, clay, water spot remover, glass cleaner & glass polish then panel prep in preparation for Yum Glass+ when it arrives. I am hoping to get an early start in the morning to do a deep clean so I can get a wax on the paint for winter protection and maybe my paint will get close to yours as it does look really good when it is clean & protected.

      Thanks Chris! It was a bit of both really. The steam is enough to keep these pretty clean as they don't get too dirty in between. I usually give them a proper extraction every 4 months or so to deep clean them too

      @AutoCareHQ I look forward to it. It looks like a similar machine to the flex pxe but at half the cost which is why I've been considering it.

    • @AutoCareHQ

    Hi Heather, just wanted to say thank you for all the videos. I’ve just received my first order from in2Detailing after watching your video on a budget start up kit, bilt hamber auto foam, tyre serum, towels and shampoo. These were all delivered the next day so excellent customer services, I still have some brushes to buy so I’ll be using them again. Again thanks for the advice, do you have any suggestions for an odour eliminator ? Just bought a new car and they used a really strong smelling cleaner that still smells two weeks later, really strong chemical smell. Thanks

    • @AutoCareHQ
      @AutoCareHQ  Місяць тому

      Thanks very much for watching them Nick! Glad you're happy with the purchases too :) I've not tried it yet, but Gyeon have an odour eliminator pad which could be worth a look.

    Hi Heather, can you explain why you don't wash all jams and simply just dry them after washing? This method seems to be a risk for the paint imo.
    Second, have you ever used View Evo? If you use two coats without removing in between, this new version applies quite easily and works a treat! Please let me know your opinion on this product. Keep it up!

    • @AutoCareHQ
      @AutoCareHQ  Місяць тому +2

      Thanks for watching 😊 the door jambs never get that dirty with my car and most of the dirt gets washed away through the panel gaps during the exterior cleaning process. If they were dirtier though I’d use a mitt and shampoo as that’s definitely a safer method if there’s any grit in there.
      I’ve not tried View Evo unfortunately, looks like it could be a good one to try though!

    Apart from the fantastic job you just did, how's the little Mazda holding up?
    I was looking around and they seem to be a very good compromise in quality/price, but I'm a bit esitant with the thousands of equal but different hybrid options they offer, it's just really confusing

    • @AutoCareHQ

  • @tenbob1973

    Great vid as per usual! Love those tyre mats. Anyhoo, got a couple of wee questions. I git my used Audi A3 last month and almost ready to do first wash, just waiting on products. However, just noticed (cant believe i didnt notice earlier 🤦🏻) that i have a 1" x 2" patch of rust bubbles on back wheel arch 😭 when prewashing/washing should i work around it? As in, dont go over it directly with Pressure washer hose or wash mitt. Worried about ripping the paint off! Second question, have noticed you use Soft99 Glaco in the past, would you say the product you used in this vid is better? I dont have a polisher so Glaco was what I was thinking of getting.

    • @AutoCareHQ
      @AutoCareHQ  Місяць тому +1

      Thank you!
      I would avoid blasting it with the pressure washer but as long as the paint is intact then I think you should be okay going over it gently with the wash mitt.
      I would say atm that Glaco seems like a more wiper resistant option so I'd go for that

    • @tenbob1973
      @tenbob1973 Місяць тому

      ​@@AutoCareHQ thanks for response. Yeah, will go easy when washing. Hoping to get it properly repaired in Feb once I have saved up enough - have heard these things ain't cheap 😭
