I had this thought too. I put 4 coats of top of the line coating on my car and I still need to gently wash it with all the steps and then add a ceramic “topper” on it after anyway as drying aid etc. Basically it looks nicer in between and I love my car is really the only reason haha

Hi John, I’d be interested if you could do a paint inspection ‘before and after’ video following this same method. I’m shocked at the number of people who seem to think you’re absolutely destroying your paint when I wouldn’t expect any such thing if you’ve got a layer of protection on top.

The colour of the car isn’t going to make a difference as if you’re gonna get swirls, you’re gonna get swirls.

@@sebster6031 you’ve still not actually refuted my point. Whilst my ‘paint is paint’ may be oversimplified, the compounds within different coloured paints by a single manufacturer will be virtually identical other than the dye chemicals and this has a negligible impact on ‘softness’. Anyone can detail, it’s a manual job that barely requires a brain. The fact that you think a soft brush clearing bug residue will lead to swirls on a clear coated car by virtue of the fact that it is black tells me that you’re just trying to make out that you know more about detailing/paint than you do because you’re essentially saying one could lightly run their finger over a black car and it’s going to lead to some marring or paint defect 😂

John, 99,99% of you videos are excellent, but I disagree with this one: I see no reason to drag all those bugs around inside a single brush. Also, looks like a lot of work. I'd use surfex HD + hose down. If anything is remaining on the paint, use a rinseless wash and a microfiber towel folded in 4. Also not drying my black car would be a bad idea for water spots, so I'd use another towel to dry the car using the rinseless solution as a drying aid.

I'm thinking a box of items to use in association with a garage pressure washer whilst away for a couple of weeks. The bug relevance being "Scottish Midges", but also overall keeping clean and shiny without taking every bit of detailing kit (I don't have a tow hitch 🤪). Anyway, just a thought for a video, perhaps. 👍

Hi John. Good video. Bug splatter is a nightmare to get off. As you say the longer they are left on, the harder they are to remove. Also the damage they do to the paintwork. I watched a video recently, and this guy who dies derailing, said he uses hand sanitizer gel which contains alcohol for removing bugs. I tried it, and didn’t work. Have you ever tried that’s method. Thanks. Mark. Keep up the good work.

I have a graphene coating on my car. I purposely left bugs on for 2 weeks just to see was it going to be easier hard to get off. All I had to do was turn on the pressure washer and they all blasted off on the first pass

Impressive citrus cleaner Jon, to eat into those 150MPH bug guts! They love a bit of track day fast food, so good to get them off quick 😁 👍🏼

Personally I'd have just left it for the following day, John did mention he'd been out all day so not wanting too drag the pressure washer out plus all his cars are well protected.

Does mixing something like ONR or other waterless product to the cleaner like Surfex HD work to reduce brush scratches? or does the cleaner negate the effect from it. Might be an option if there are brushes on paint involved, i prefer a soft towel.

@jeffc6832 2 жыл бұрын
ONR on its own is more than effective enough to remove those bugs with zero effort/pressure and no need to rinse...or worry about working fast in the sun. Take your time and get it clean, then wipe dry. Use a drying aid/topper if you like.

Stick with the air rifle, get a cover or park somewhere else. None ideal but there you go.

I have a pressure washer with 130 bar 1600 watt for €70 is it too powerfull? I like it a lot it works good. I could change it for a K2 or Bosch home they are Both€70 but with 110 bar and no wheels, or a 120 bar one for €130 or 105 bar for €60

It's probably fine either way, i use an older K2 that still has wheels and it's been serving me well for over 6 years, i don't have a good foam lance so i apply my prewash with a pump sprayer, though with a good lance like the mjjc pro there's videos of k2s producing acceptable levels of foam, only thing that sucks is the short cable which i replaced for a 10 meter one and my absence of a short trigger kit

@@martin1649 thank you for your reaction. I like it because it's a little boost i would be harmfull if i would hold it on a part of a car where the clear coat isnt good, but if you are carefull keep you distance and use the right attachment you should be fine right? I also have a problem with my foam but i can't find one because it is a home brand. So that sucks, i make sure to use the best foam i can find and work with what i have. I also start to think of useing ph neutral cleaners, is it really better? For you i would say do it with what you have if the pump spray is good then why not? There is also a foam cannon for a garden hose but i dont know if they will do the job. I bought my pressure washer i came with a plastic foam cannon it does the job i guess. Have a Nice Day and thank you again! I will see what i can do. Work with what you have right?
