Man, these days, when it rains a lot in Brazil, I just wish a little Corolla like yours. And these cleaning videos feel like ASMR to me. No bullshit, no frills, just work properly done.

@@kelvinarreola You're a nice person as far as I know. Knew that the chinese managed to manufacture perfect copies of the monocoque hatchback Corolla? Jiangsu Auto Company did it basically by scanning or modelling the hatchback body. They'll probably sell it for racing teams since they published an ad on Alibaba requiring the purchase of 5 bodies at least. Given the prospects of jdm fanboys around the world asking for new parts (since old parts tend to be expensive and not perfectly mantained), they have everything in hands. If it depended on me, I could've been a global supplier and restorer of parts for all these asian cars (not only body, but also suspension, ECU, brakes, interior, glasses, engines, gearboxes...) and I really don't have anything to complain about the chinese doing that. Toyota did a little re-run of old parts through their heritage sector, but... that wasn't something good as people expected to be. Mazda managed to get some customers in Japan by fully refurbishing old cars on their heritage as well, but that was limited to cars that only needed some missing bolts, oil change, alignment, new microchips and buff or two.

I feel like I've been watching you too long, when you hesitated at "stick my hand in this..." my mind preloaded "naaasty water". I mostly watch you to try and give me inspiration to work on my aunty's car. I always say I will do it one day, next weekend, soon. Welk my Mum just passed away suddenly and it's made me reconsider all my one day's, next times, etc., because of all the one days, next week's and soons I made up when she was here. I think I might go through your old videos and use them as the inspo to actually stop pitting things off.. sorry for the offload buy it's insane how just watching your vids gives me some peace right at the moment. Keep doing what you do, you're good people

Thank you for the kind words and sorry for your loss. Sometimes you just gotta get it done! And make it better than before. One of the barriers is just having the right set of tools , good lighting and space to work on the car!

Thanks. Hoodlums it wasn't too weird some dingus from Australia offloading like that. When are you going to start shipping shirts to Australia by the way? I think I may have asked ages ago on another video.

Gave in and used Cerakote trim wipes on my daughter’s graying ‘15 RAV4 bumpers. I was skeptical but so far so good. Looks just like when I applied it back in August.
