Thank you for demo and mentioning the difficulty in removing the sprayer cap.... it was IMPOSSIBLE! The sprayer immediately broke on first use. We used a cleaner sprayer to replace with however it was so difficult to unscrew the Lighting Fast top. If it's a concentrated cleaner that needs to be diluted 20:1, why even put a sprayer on the bottle that's impossible to remove??? Just venting in case Chemical Guys take note on how to improve. Will mention to retailer.

[@Autofusionchannel]

Your most welcome glad the video was helpful. yeah I’m not sure why they put a sprayer on that can’t be removed. But hopefully like you said they change it to just a cap.

[@bigstick346]

I also purchased a gallon of this. I've done some really bad interiors. Through my experience with this stuff, and I also followed dilution instructions, found that 20:1 is too diluted. I've been playing around with dilutions and finding that around 10:1 is a bit more potent. Wish it had a fresher, cleaner scent also.

[@Autofusionchannel]

Thank you for sharing I’ll have to give it a try at 10:1 and yes it would be awesome if it had a nice scent like the citrus foam.

[@robsaumure1314]

Love this stuff, has never failed me. On car mats I'll spray, agitate, pressure wash and just extract. Pressure washer gets way down in the fibers and extractor is just removing excess water. Anyways great video...

[@Autofusionchannel]

It definitely does a great job

Forgot to mention, great videos I really enjoy them. Keep up the great work.

[@Autofusionchannel]

HeyEric, thanks a lot I appreciate the compliment.

[@MetalDetailer]

Better review than mine haha. I didn’t dilute mine tho. I used the spray head on no water on the mats either. I don’t have an extractor so I gotta work with what I got.

[@Autofusionchannel]

I wouldn’t say it’s better bro your great on your Instagram post. when I first started it was all elbow grease. It took me awhile to get the stuff I have now. As for the product it’s awesome.

[@MetalDetailer]

@@Autofusionchannel the elbow grease sucks sometimes. Haha. But yeah I’m working on getting more gear

[@Autofusionchannel]

@@MetalDetailer I hear you it does at time

[@TheBigFattyDoink]

I got soysauce on my cloth seats of my brand new car and it got it straight out with 0 issues. Its wild

[@Autofusionchannel]

That’s awesome ,glad the product worked out for you. Thank you for sharing 👍👍

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

I love Chemical Guys Lightning Fast. Cheap and works amazing. I have a gallon of this and at 1:20 it goes a LONG way. Also, isn't the small 16 ounce bottle ready to use already? If it is, that makes this even more impressive haha

[@Autofusionchannel]

Yeah I really was impressed with this product . You can use the 16 oz as is but it is recommended to dilute 20:1. I was talking to the guys from detail garage they also told me that nonsense 16oz bottles can be diluted as well especially for the interior. it is impressive how long a 16oz can go with these products.

[@MetalDetailer]

@@Autofusionchannel the nonsense is amazing for license plates no dilution needed. Spray, agitate, wipe and done.

[@yv1294]

what do you recommend for small stains on the car ceiling? my nephew killed a bug and left behind residue 😅 and small coffee stains on cloth car seats? would this product work? thanks!

[@Autofusionchannel]

Yes this would work with a small detail brush and microfiber cloth. Don’t go too crazy with the product if you have a cloth headliner because it is held with glue.

[@stevenjover5840]

Great video by the way love it !! On the extractor did you just use hot water ?

[@Autofusionchannel]

Thank you and yes I did use hot water in the extractor.

[@ItzDeWIkidest]

Thank you for this video!

[@Autofusionchannel]

Your most welcome 👍👍

[@EricDavidLaVoie1970]

Hey another quick tip to remove the nozzle on any lock threads bottles is to run the cap over hot water for a few seconds and as it softens the plastic thread and it becomes very easy to remove at this point. Also I know chemical guys sells lighting fast in a constructed form. I thought the bottle you was using is ready pre-deluted. Most Chemical Guys bottles with factory nozzles are pre-deluted and that's why they use that style thread on those bottles not to be opened and reused. Trust me I try and reuse alot of my bottles but they do this so you buy more product product. Last , I also liked this product on my rugs. Im also using Nonsense. This product is great on almost everthing.

[@Autofusionchannel]

I think we assume it’s diluted because when I read the back of the label it says it is recommended to dilute 20:1 .

[@daisy3384]

Agree.. thought the same thing. If they're going to put a sprayer that is so difficult to remove, the contents should be pre-diluted.

[@CheapCheerful]

Mind boggles... why sell in a sprayer, and have in tiny writing "dilute 20:1 in separate container", while making it nearly impossible to get the lid off without breaking or losing half of it. Makes me question their attention to detail. Smells just like Windex... hmm I hope it works.

[@Autofusionchannel]

Yeah never understood that but it does work well.

[@aprila9796]

If I’m not going to use an extractor and just use a brush and a microfiber cloth, which one would you choose? I don’t mind about the scent.

[@Autofusionchannel]

I would chose lightning fast just because it doesn’t foam up as much as citrus foam.

[@serchizm]

Lol I bought a bottle of this, read instructions, wanted to dilute, then tried to unscrew the sprayer. I was trippin, like, am I not supposed to be able to remove the cap if they want me to dilute it??? Never was able to remove, i just sprayed a bunch inside my sprayer then added water.

[@Autofusionchannel]

lol I thought the same thing when I bought the product and read the directions. I don’t understand why they did that . smh

[@Way2EasyDIY]

Is this lightning fast stuff at all comparable to totally awesome or purple power?

[@Autofusionchannel]

Totally awesome and purple power are pretty versatile. Lightning fast is only a stain remover but it does a really good job in my opinion.

[@simonedipaola3626]

Have you ever tried that chemical guys lighting fast on fabric seats?

[@Autofusionchannel]

Yes, it does an excellent job does not have much of a sent but it does clean well.

[@Detailguy101]

lightning fast10:1 best hands down!

[@Autofusionchannel]

I agree

[@Galibio13]

Would the extractor matter or is it how good you work the area

[@Autofusionchannel]

If it’s a small area you can get away with just using a brush and a microfiber to mop up the soild area. The extractor helps to make the process alittle faster in my opinion.

[@jdbbs1]

Awesome video brother.. what was the Upholstery machine you were using?

[@Autofusionchannel]

Hey thanks bro I appreciate it. The machine I’m using is called the bissell little green pro I actually have a demo using the machine on my channel if you’d like to check it out .

[@Autofusionchannel]

@@jdbbs1 in my opinion yes I've used it on the vehicles as well as in the home and so fare its been doing well.

[@stevenjover5840]

So which do you prefer the lighting fast or the fabric ? I can’t choose lol

[@Autofusionchannel]

Lol they are both great I think I’ll make another video using the citrus fab cleaner my trucks floor mats are pretty dirty at the moment in my opinion. But if I have to choose the citrus fab cleaner smells great and gets the job done. The lighting fast does not have a smell to it at least that I can tell.

[@KevinsFawcett]

How do you use this on fabric Headliner without laving water rings?

[@Autofusionchannel]

Try not to over saturate. Ammo nyc has a video on this topic I recommend checking his channel out. Hope this helps.

[@davidluong8040]

After the spinning brush, that a wet vacuum youre using to pull out the dirt?

[@Autofusionchannel]

Yes it just warm water in the extractor

[@Autofusionchannel]

It’s called the bissell little green pro I have a video on my channel if you’d like to check it out.

[@415getActive]

what's the point in using this product over the citrus foaming soap?? I've seen videos where the soap does just fine cleaning stains from seats and carpets

[@Autofusionchannel]

Great question the citrus foam has more foam then the lightning fast which I like to use so you don’t get so much foam in the extractor. They both clean well this is the only noticeable difference I have found.

[@Autofusionchannel]

The extractor I’m using is called little green pro by Bissell I had purchased it at Walmart

[@ryuukin178]

Do you have to dilute it ? Why does it come with a sprayer if it needs to be diluted ???

[@Autofusionchannel]

No you don’t have too but you can. I have no idea . When I read the back of the label I was wounding the same thing . Like there APC can be diluted but it comes with a sprayer as well.

[@ryuukin178]

@@Autofusionchannel I asked chemicals guys and they said you can use it full strength or diluted as needed!

[@rayalvarez6172]

Do I have put to water in the extractor or can I just use it without water ?

[@Autofusionchannel]

That’s a good question, I personally use water. but iv also seen the chemical guys people use a drill brush and wipe it down with a microfiber towel. Like car mats or upholstery.

What kind of vacuum are you using ?

Bissell little green pro it’s an extractor.

[@beachbum6741]

any problem with wicking?

[@Autofusionchannel]

I had an issue about about two months ago when I used this product on my interior truck carpet I had used the product with my extractor it was cold that day so it took along time for the carpet to dry plus I might have over saturated the carpet . The next day it was orange in some areas which was the wicking effect. I grabbed me some turtle wax carpet cleaner not extractor this time just product the little scrub brush that comes with the can and a microfiber to mop up and it took care of the issue. I can’t necessarily blame the product alone. Just because of a slow dry time and me over saturating the carpet.

[@charlottecannon314]

You're using way too much solution. Good grief. And ut was not a 3 to 1 ratio either.

[@Autofusionchannel]

Not at all it got the job done and the ratio was 20 to 1 .

[@user-oj8zo3cr4b]

Bro are you using another carpet cleaning solution with the extraction?! Why you just acting like that’s water

[@Autofusionchannel]

No solution was used in the extractor only warm water. The only solution I’m using is the lightning fast that I had dilute and sprayed on to the mats.
