Using wife's car to test products: legend.
I put snowmobile clutch parts in the dishwasher while my wife watched. 😉
He prob bought the car
😂
Welcome to the end of the internet.... I just watched a guy wash his car. And I gave it a thumbs up.
I know right…..
Oddly satisfying
😂
The world is doomed.
Wait till you start watching the carpet steam cleaning channels...mmm so satisfying

It’s crazy how this has 1.5 million views, a whole lot more than any other car wash shampoo, yet the armorall is probably used the least compared to others. I actually like it a lot
Haha UA-cam algorithms are crazy
It's nice to have videos straight to the point. Tired of videos talking about the weather, their dog, what they ate, how dumb I mean smart their kids are, and what they fed the goldfish lol.
That’s the goal, short, simple and somewhat entertaining!
@@9NailzGarage
Infotainment!
Amen to that 😁😁😁
Spot On
The Goldfish comment, lol
The best thing I learned was use a leaf blower! Never thought of that - so simple, yet genius.
Yea , I don't have a leaf blower but my shop vac blower port works great
Sand blaster
Works great for blowing light snow as well
Thank you for following the directions as stated. I keep seeing people do these reviews of this product and not applying it properly and agitating the surface without an adequate amount of soap. These people can’t even follow directions! Great review and great product for the price!
Thank you!
I’m sitting here in Australia watching hunting videos, then this comes up in my suggestions feed… now I feel like washing my car.
Haha
Me too
G’day mate!
On the lawn but I bet! Washing your car on the driveway would be criminal! LOL
@@chrishewitt4220 a
I'm happy when my car looks as clean as yours before you washed it.
Funny. That is what I was thinking.
Right, I live in Oregon and I wash my car and 2 days later it’s just pure dust again lol
I had the same reaction. When my car needs washing it is dirty, not this clean :D
For sure! Try Iowa gravel road grime
Then why are you watching car care videos?? Your comment makes you look a little silly for even being here.
The leaf blower is pure genius !
Except for a gas powered one just use an electric one and it is even better.
Been doing this for years!
Was going to say the same thing. I mean, why have I never thought about that. Freaking genius.
Yes, it's really good to use on a motorcycle, gets water out of all the nooks and crannies!
@Quibit 711, sorry bro, contrary to political correctness real men use gas power blowers, and that goes for any tool or appliance when possible!
Now if only they made a turbo diesel blower......
Clear down to earth review without the bs thanks for sharing
Excellent review! Very impressed and straight to the point! Not a 35 minute video of things I don’t care to see but results.
Thank you! That was the goal, minimal useless chatter and straight to the point! There will be a lot more to come!
Very impressive! And your garage car wash set up is awesome!
Nice to see someone serious about a clean vehicle! Great video! 😀
Thank you! It’s a fun hobby!
It's not a hobby. It's therapy ! Or I could just choke people but the law frowns at that.
i'm jealous of your car wash setup. very impressive indeed.
I just tried it and I love it!! I was a Chemical Guys Hydro Suds Ceramic Wash user, but after using the Armor All today...I am sold! The Armor All gave my 2020 Ford Ranger a much better slick feel! Thanks for the review!!
Very glad to hear!
Helpful video, thanks. My routine uses Griot’s spray wax with the drying towel. Mo’ Wax can’t hurt it decreases any damage the towel could cause. Also protects the wax underneath without more work.
Yup. I bought this product and its rather impressive to be honest.
Bought this wash over a month ago and love it! Great price and really does the job greatly
Did you use a pressure washer ?
@@kyzor-sosay6087 yes and a foam cannon
Looks cool when your spraying the the soap👍🏽
Good video review... also nice to see someone else not ashamed to use a leaf blower to dry their car with!!! I've been using a B&D 20v for about 5-6 yrs now to dry my car, gets all the trapped water out of those hidden marker lights, etc... the looks I get from neighbors for 1st the foam cannon, then the leaf blower you'd think I was pouring gas on the car or something!! People are strange, car people are detail oriented 👍
Thank you! Just bought the EGO 56v leaf blower, works amazing but still gets weird looks lol
Seeing is believing!! Thanks for sharing your experience.
I just learned so much from this video!!!! How you use the foal cannon and blower! Doing this over the weekend. Already ordered and ready to go! Thank you!
Did it leave any marks on the driveway after or cause any issues with your grass/plants nearby?
It’s been a few weeks so far, grass is still good, no odd marks in the driveway.
@@9NailzGarage that’s good as Amor All tends to stain concrete.
@@spokes28 thats because most armor all products contain silicone.
@@xxburichxx Armor all was originally for Vinyl. Never ever use it on vinyl. The vinyl cracks and deteriorates after using that stuff
Now his driveway doesn't get wet
Great video!!! I've been using a leaf blower to dry my cars for years. Best way to get 98% of the water off a car even if my neighbors think I'm crazy.
Me too. Saves so much time
Cant believe that I have never thought about using a leaf blower, what a great idea, thank you
Armor all is a godsend for restoring cars, especially interiors
It sure is!
Awesome. I would have never thought to use leaf blower to dry my truck. Great review. Tfs
Thank you!
Be careful as my Stihl blowers exhaust is on the from, it would throw exhust right onto the car
I think I will give this armor all a try
😎
Thanks for the review. Always looking for different car products!
No problem!
I’m going to try this product out now! Thank you! And great video!
You’ll be amazed! Just don’t let it dry on the paint before you rinse
That horse never moves...amazing.
Good video, that stuff does look impressive I wonder how long the coating lasts, probably between washes at least for most people I imagine?
Leaf blower is the way to go for sure. Fast and gets the water out of the crevices will normally drip out from the wind and leave water spots. Meguiars water magnet towels are great for giving it a quick once over after.
First time watcher... a UA-cam guy with 3.8k subs has nearly a million views of him washing his sweetie's car. What was I thinking two weeks ago when I did the same? Great job! Amor All here I come!
And, of course, you sold out the suds cannon!
Thank you!
Awesome video and the leaf blower tip was gold
Thank you! The electric ego is awesome too!
This stuff is really great! I wash my cars by hand then I just use a squeegee. I was impressed that I got no water spots like I did with other products. I agree the cars looked like they were just waxed.
Looks like a good product. Much cheaper then the chemicals guys product
I've been using blue coral concentrate car wash for many years but after watching your review I might give that product a chance. Keep up the great work. 👍
Thanks for the comment! I’ll be reviewing a bunch of other car washes over the next few weeks as well then I’ll rank them top to bottom. These products have really come a long ways in the past year!
Well, hell. I'm sold. Guess I'm going to have to hit the store and wash my truck this weekend. And the Goldwing. And the KTM. And probably the exterior of the house too.
Just gave me an idea for a summer gig.
When i use a leaf blower while drying my car, im always looking over my shoulder for someone to ask are you crazy.lol but it does work!
😂😂
I tried this recently. Not sure it helped beading as I already had coatings. But after blower drying spits were left all over, had to hand dry then detsil spray to remove them. Iused foam cannon then washed with MIT before rinsing with pressure washer. Disappointed with results.
It’s actually an air blower.
@@bossgold9534 no actually its a leaf blower. But it blows air.
Nice job I like this one and the Armor snow foam soap.
*REELING STAGGERING HAND OVER EYE*
Oh god! My eye! Its bleeding! The sheer simplistic brilliance of it all. A leafblower!! I can almost retire my chamois! I feel like ive just seen a wheel for the first time! Ive come away from this vid improved nice one man!
Never use a chamois. It will scratch.
@@wildpony1957 thanks man I'll take that tip too. That's what you get from doing it "how grandpa showed you" lol
“Testing on wife’s car…” lol👍🏻
Armor All really stepped their game on this tbh. Ngl I laughed when I heard about this dropping but honestly I’m gonna grab some of this too!
They really did make a great product, I figured I’d give it a shot! So far they’ve got chemical guys and meguiars beat, I’ll be trying Adam’s graphene and griots ceramic soon
I did the same thing. Scoffed at the thought of armor all being good. But this was way better than expected. Although I hate how obsessed the industry is with water beading. Sheeting is better and most of all UV protection trumps them both
@@davidmorales7371 I think influence came from ceramic protection growing in popularity, heck even Turtle wax stepped up pronto before Armorall but one product I like to see in action is the ceramic coating spray from NuFinish too, that’ll be a fun tester considering it’s like $15 but we’ll see
I use this soap on my truck and my wife's vehicle. Funny story, we traded in her escape yesterday and I had used this soap on the car before we got to the dealership. The guy went out to look at it and came back in and asked me If I had waxed it because it looked good. I told him no that I really don't wax but I use that ceramic wash and they were impressed.
Love the result you got! Will try this product very soon. I am disabled and it takes a toll to clean my car. I really like this idea and it should make it easier to clean. Subscribed and hello from loudon County TN 👋
You'll love it!
Man I have never thought of using leaf blower, that is awesome and the soap looks good as well, never been a fan of armor all products but I will give it a try.
I use my dog blow dryer. Works great as well. :)
same here. It will be a huge time saver.
I just use my air compressor 😁
A leaf blower works great. I have a battery-powered Ego 650 CFM and it makes drying a car so much easier.
@@archiepezek I always just use a my air compressor
Nice video, and the product seems decent. Question: how did the soap work on the bugs on the front end? Did you need to use extra effort, or did the soap sort of melt them off? Thanks in advance for your response.
Great video quality. I'm really surprised that you only have 3k subs. Keep it up and that number will go through the roof!
Thank you so much! I’ve been putting a lot of work into every single video, it’s finally starting to grow pretty rapidly!
Thanks for the video. I watched many videos on this product and didn't here one bad thing about it. In fact most folks were very surprised at the results.
Never have been a fan of Armor All products but after seeing all the UA-cam videos I decided to give it a try. All I can say is this product is the real deal. It works as advertised. Love it. Made the Mustang Screaming Yellow paint really POP. :)
I’m glad you had good results! Just make sure not to let the suds dry on the paint!
Neighbor: gives me a weird look for using leaf blower.
Also neighbor: giving me thumbs up and using leaf blower two days later.
I've been drying my car using a leaf blower for over 12 years. Yes, neighbors did use to give me a strange look but I guess they're used to it now.
Neighbor laughed at me for using my leaf blower to clear the snow off my car. The same neighbor that said I was cheating when walking on my roof to blow leaves and debris out of my gutters while he was using a ladder and scooting it along as he cleaned his.
@@steve4628 i havent cleaned gutters in over 20 years, bro. i that that act died out back in the 80's. home depot sells gutter guards
I use my leaf blower to ‘sweep’ my deck, porches, and garage, gutters, top to bottom. Dust, leaves, spider webs, bird nests... Neighbors laughed, now do the same. I use the garden hose, never use the blower to remove the pine straw collections on the asphalt roof shingles though. My roofer told me I could use the blower, if I want him back replacing the shingles in half their expected life. Never thought of even washing the truck, a ‘97 Ranger, just turn the key and it goes. You’ve got me wondering if my new car sealant, dirt protective force field, and God Washing (rain) is keeping looking the best it can. Thinking about using this miracle soap but God is washing my car right now.
@@UTube354 taxed!!
Great video. I wish my results were as good as yours. I used this product on two vehicles that I own. I applied this product with the exact same foam cannon and then thoroughly rinsed both vehicles with my pressure washer as per the instructions on the container. After the final rinse, I noticed how well the water beaded on the vehicle surfaces and was quite impressed on the beading properties. I had to quickly take care of a personal matter and was unable to hand dry the vehicles.
When I returned, both vehicles were heavily covered in what appeared to be water spots. So I re-washed both vehicles and hand dried them, but the water spots remained from the first wash. After trying several different auto care products to remove the spots, I found only polishing compound would remove the spots from the vehicle painted surfaces, heavy duty trim cleaner for all the plastic surfaces and glass polishing compound for the windows. I spent two days cleaning and detailing both vehicles to remove all the water spots and re-polish all the surfaces.
My only conclusion is that the properties of this particular ArmorAll ceramic car wash, also encapsulated the water beads and water spots left during the drying process. I'm hesitant to use this product again because of this issue, unless I can quickly hand dry the vehicle before spotting can occur. I would like to see ArmorAll change the chemistry of the product to resolve this issue or change the usage instructions to include that the vehicle must be hand dried immediately after the final rinse, otherwise heavy water spotting will occur.
Thank you for letting me know how imperative the timeliness of this final step is. 👍
I had the exact same experience. I use a deionizing filter on my water and an electric leaf-blower to do 90% of the drying. I usually only need a quick wipe to get any remaining damp spots, however this stuff left tiny little spots all over my car and I had to go over the whole thing again to get them off. I do not recommend.
Awesome! Looks like this will be my next car wash soap purchase!
Definitely my favorite so far!
Well constructed video. Good info. Product left me impressed. I will definitely purchase it. Thanks.
Thank you!
I got some of this and tried it this weekend. On the one hand, it does as he says. Hydrophobic action is impressive. Foams nicely out of a foam cannon. But there is a big "but...." I use a leaf blower to blow dry my cars about 95% dry and microfiber the rest. I found this stuff left behind tiny little spots anyplace you did not quadruple rinse. I wouldn't quite call them water spots, as they are not hard water deposits, but little spots of the car wash itself. Of course as a "wash and wax" it has to leave behind deposits to do it's job, and that's pretty common with wash-n-wax, but usually a quick wipe with microfiber is ally need to get rid of them. However with this I found the spots quite difficult to remove. A little elbow grease with a slightly damp microfiber worked, but it was a PITA. You may have better luck with a normal towel dry, or leave your wash and wax two separate events.
i blow the heavy water off then use a clean, dedicated drying microfiber towel. you want some water to be left behind after blowing to act as a lubricant. i think a towel drying acts as a buffing . the paint seems to have more shine than just blowing .
You have just made easier to wash my truck, by using the leaf blower will make it a lot easier.
It's the best way to do it
@@kevingadson9315 &&h&&j
Yeah. Easier and it reduces wear on the paint since your doing a lot less rubbing with towels. You can also use an air compressor.
Don't do this. Debris in the air rocketing at your paint at extreme speeds will act like a sandblaster.
Thank you very much! I will give it a try for sure!
No problem! Good luck!
Thanks. Going to give it a try.
The Last Coat products I use are no joke. Their shampoo has a detox and a ceramic coating in it. It looks super good by itself. If you then use their ceramic spray TLC2 after the finish goes to a second level. Then look at it after 48 hours. Their spray looks like glass on my Honda Accord 2.0T touring car metallic grey.
Wow! No Karen came by and scolded you for wasting water. No cops, too. Amazing.
Thanks man def be getting this!
I like it! I may have to try that out! Thanks
Its seems to have good coating properties. How well did it do on removing the bug guts?
Great video. I’d appreciate if you did a review after a week or two. Or how it held up against getting dirty and getting a quick rinse and lasting through a car wash etc
It’s been about a week now, I’ll try to put out an update video at three weeks

You want a lot for a few bucks....
thank you for the tip on the leaf blower
Great video. Cool guy. I like your style. Thanks for sharing your experience.
I've been using a leaf blower for years to dry my vehicles.
That’s what they all say ......
I haven't washed my jeep in almost 2 years... (It rains every afternoon here in Hawaii) It's a mess but you inspired me to wash her today just because of the leaf blower! Haha
Only near the mountains
I like the leaf blower idea 💡
Ill try anything once. If it dont work i just return to the store. Since we have water restrictions now ive cut back my use of water. I went out and bought Armor all wash wipes and there waxing wipes. Love it. It takes about 4 wash wipes to do my 4dr. Pickup. Awesome products by Armorall. Thank u for an awesome product and savings on my water bill.
Good to know! :D
Good lookin Cummins man! From a 6.0 powerstroke owner.
Thank you!

Thank you! It’s good stuff!
thhis wash looks good< yea some people say water sheating is better but theres a differnce depending on prep and what you want for end result
Not gonna lie, never even thought about using a leaf blower to dry the car. Totally going to now though!
I haven't on a car but I do use one after I was my motorcycle to blow all the water out of all the nooks and crannies. It works great for that.
I do but only only an electric one. Gas powered blows the exhaust through the end.
Use my leaf blower for everything, especially for cleaning snow off of cars, or anything else. Works equally well for drying anything around the house. Didn't start using it for everything till I bought an electric one, So much easier.
Agreed….brilliant idea…had a leaf blower for a # of yrs. and never have I been smart enough to use it for this!
@@hspratt3 good thing I have an electric one then! 😉
Yes have been using this on our 2 Mustangs recently. It's great. With all the water beading off it makes a lot less shammy work, the less touching the paint too the better right. Also with the bright glossy finish it also does the job of a polish so once again a lot less touching of the paint. Great stuff.
A shammy will pull off whatever wax or coatings you have on the car. Step into the 21st century....DON'T USE A SHAMMY! At best use a high quality microfiber cloth or a broken in towel.
Looks amazing especially for the price . Great video definitely picking up a bottle
Thanks for the comment! You’ll love the results for the minimal amount of work!
Great video! I use my Milwaukee 18v leaf blower to clean sand out my Beach shack!
I'm interested in your pressure washer setup, could you do a little video on the brand and how you have it all put together?
Thanks!
Check out the other videos on my channel, I have a full video on it
@@9NailzGarage I'll look for it, thanks.
Impressive
What a great idea to use the blower ....
Love your large front yard mate .... cheers from Australia 👍
Thank you! We’ve always wanted to visit Australia!
Wow, I'm impressed!!
I love it that you are trying it on your wife’s car first! 😂😂😂😂
Just don’t tell her I was worried about the results! Lol
@Frank Silvers Speak for yourself. I've got a 2017 that I bought brand new no miles and it's spotless. Ive got less that 10,000 miles on it. You shouldn't categorize all women like that.
@@spiritwings4592 He didn’t categorize “all” women like you said, go back and reread it as he said “most women” which does not mean all.
@@spiritwings4592 Look at you taking the word "most" and turning it into "all"😂
Also have to be careful because I was using a leaf blower to dry my vehicles and found that there was little teeny particles of oil flying out
I only use my electric leaf blower - nothing but air 'cause it's never been used to blow leaves.
Genius with the leaf blower.
Blower is such a huge win.
I may try this with a pressure washer. The dog seems very well behaved.
It’s a German shepherd. I have one too and he always watches me wash my car lol
I’ve been using the leaf blower for some time now, it really cut’s down the drying time. My neighbors think I’m crazy for doing that, I guess they just don’t understand!!
Same, it helps get a lot of the water out of the mirrors, cracks and wheels too! I’ve been looking at electric ones, just don’t know which one to get
Same here! Mostly on harley..chrome, motor, etc
I detailed professionally for about 5 years and always used a leaf blower to assist during the dry. The comments would either be “why” or “thats genius “.
Been using a leaf blower to dry my vehicles for about 15 years. Occasionally I'll open up all the doors and blow out the inside also. Use it to clean my home vacuums as well.
Why didn't I think of that? They have big blowers at car washes, so why didn't I think to apply that at home? DOH!
That's a bad ass truck. And great color.
Just subbed!
Great video, mate. Thank you!
Thank you!
Interesting!!! Wonder how long it lasts. Nice video!!
Thank you! I’m going to wash it once a week and park it outside for three weeks and post another video.

Greatest car wash reviewer ever!!!!!
Thank you!
Hey there. Great review. Looks like you used the Tool Daily foam cannon but you linked the Vivid 9. Which one is the better one?
Recorded horizontally😀👍
I like the handrail or towel dry rack on the wall for your sprayers 👍🏻
Thanks! It’s 1/2” black iron pipe from Lowe’s, I also sanded it down and painted it with some rust oleum
Great job. Love the blower idea.... Texas here
Great video, love your dog!!
Thanks!
I had the same results but, it left it weird streaks on the glass that took wax to remove. I measured it correctly
Did you wash in direct sunlight or let the soap dry on the vehicle? These new soaps actually leave behind a coating on the surface of the paint, so if the suds dry out in a streak they’ll stay there.
I made sure of that
Larry.......They always say nobody else has complained.
I'll bet Mama appreciates you testing stuff while washing her ride.
Looks great. Love the foam cannon.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your setup as well as the ArmorAll product. Inspired me to try. Do you have details on the side washer setup you have? Looks like you have pvc pipes running on the sides to feed water to it?
