Seriously one of the most underrated automotive detailing UA-camrs! I just stumbled upon your page today and fell in love with the e30 videos because they’re close to my heart being I’ve owned 2 in the past. Keep up the great work and hope to see this channel grow super fast! Loving what you’re doing and got a lifetime sub from me!
Thanks Ross! I really appreciate that. We have not been able to upload as much as we would have liked over the summer but were about to completely commit to this so I hope you enjoy whats to come. Always great to meet other E30 enthusiasts as well. Such fun cars to own!
Man, I’ve watched all your newer videos and just now watching your first ones! You’re the truth when it come to thIs detailing. I appreciate your knowledge! and thank you!
Thank you bro! I intend on doing more videos like this in the future! Hopefully soon
I have to say the quality of your videos is awesome! This was another informative video. Spring is coming soon. 👍👌
Thanks man! Trying to to step to up with each one. Haha spring couldn't come soon enough after todays storm, gheeeez
The brush with the protectant/dressing is new to me. Looks like a great way to do it. I've always had issue with getting it too heavy in some areas while trying to get others covered.
Fantastic videos, really really well done. Got hooked on watching a few of them.
Thanks guys! Definitely going to pick up your correction system as soon as winter goes away, looks solid!
Watching a throwback, amazed on how far you came buddy!!
Love Your Approach, and Going the Extra Mile for Your Customer with the CarPro Pearl & P&S Bead Maker. Great Results !!
Thanks Dan! Always try to do the most. Have a great week!
Pearl?
Might want to disconnect that battery in future engine bay cleanings. Love the content though my guy learned alot.
Thanks Tyrek! Great suggestion, I appreciate it!
@@ChromaticGarage My bad man after watching the video I think I heard you say remember to disconnect the battery I'm the one that needs to pay attention. Had to call myself out there lol 😅
Very nice video. Just the right amount of detail.
Need to always protect the alternator as it can short out it's diodes if wet inside. A plastic bag around it works pretty well. It's the one very vulnerable thing under the hood to water. Alternators haven't really changed over the years. Ideally those diodes would be potted and in modular pack but they never are, just soldered in there.
Great video! I have a concern; how is that much water not damaging anything electrical under the hood? And for cars still under warranty, wouldn't that void any warranty? I am asking because I have to detail a friends engine but he has 2 years left on warranty. Thank you.
Nice video bro 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you my friend!
Bro I’m looking for the big brush but I don’t find the link can you help me with that thanks
I didn’t hear the engine start,,
Petjo Bedet it didn’t start after this
Hello chromatic. Fans and subscriber from 🇲🇾. Your videography is phenomenal! 💯 I would like to know a few things, can i just spray the water onto the electrical wire shown in 1:06 like u do using just a garden hose and should i cover the alternator? Cause i see u didn’t use any cover to protect the alternator. Im new to this detailing world. Hope u can clarify. Thank you sir.
Thank you friend! I think you should cover any electrical components that you are worried about, it only takes a few minutes and then you'll have absolutely nothing to worry about/regret. I would suggest covering the alternator as well! Hope this helps!
@@ChromaticGarage thank you sir.
Another great video mate! Was just wondering... what is your dilution ratios on the ik as I got the updated version but can never get it to fan out like that I see in yours and others video's.. I have used 1:5 a d 1:10 ratios. Never a wide fan like yours did.. I also tried changing the front nozzle, still no luck!
Looks great but I don't think you added any extra horsepower lol
Haha ah man you're probably right. Thanks for watching!
Why don't you protect the alternator?
Hey man, I hear such mixed things about washing engine bay...I have a 2019 Crosstrek...can I spray the engine bay? I thought it was only okay to do with a pressure washer. I currently only have a garden hose. So conflicted. I would love to wash it.
Where did you get the brush that was used in step 6? I have been looking for one that size.
where did you get that big brush?
Hi friend! I am a South Korean viewer. I have a question. I want to try cleaning the engine room! Looking at the engine, you can see the wires. Green line is seen in 7 minutes 2 seconds. Can I spray this place with a compressed sprayer? I'm scared I've never tried it 😱
yup no problem
Your video is awesome but , you didn't mention anything about the alternator and electrical components , what did you do to protect it from the water? Obviously you didn't cover anything😢
Where can I get that big brush that you apply with the dressing?
It's just a detailing brush. Think he said chemical guys at the beginning of the video
Amazon
So it’s safe to power wash the engine bay????
Apart from a distributor cap, I got no plastic on my engine to scratch😁😉
don't you afraid to apply APC which is mixed with water to engine? it is electrical conductor
👍🏻
