Nissan Leaf Full Polish & Ceramic Coating - PART 1: WASH & PREP

[@hyperprotagonist]

Nothing beats watching two Mats washing a car on a Friday evening 🎉

[@paultaylor9652]

Lovely colour, I'm sure when finished it'll look better than any dealership preparation could achieve.

[@buvik100]

Nissan Leaf has a garage jack point under front and on under back of the car. Which makes it easy and fast to lift up for placing the jack stands :)

[@simonbuckingham752]

Nice video Mat. That Nissan looked pretty clean to start with tbf. Look forward to seeing the full detail. I have been doing mine the last two days and weather not condusive to polishing at the moment

[@TheDetailingSpace]

I washed it about a week or 2 before. But only a quick wash, hence all the algee build up etc still there in the nooks and crannies

[@jackmason2792]

Fantastic video Mat

[@adrianlawrence7224]

Would have been a good workout for that gazebo . Anyway, great workout for you. Good stuff.

[@TheDetailingSpace]

Yeah, this is the detail that finally tipped me over the edge and made it an easier decision

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hello Mat, brilliant video,is the Nissan Leaf electric?, good progress so far.

[@RandomlySet]

@@stevenjones19-m8i it is indeed

[@JonathanEvans-l7d]

i have use the normal karcher lance such a pain

[@kevinb7058]

Hi Matt, if we get snow in the near future, what's the best and safest way to get it off the car?

[@clints8888]

Hey mate i still find those boars hair brushes to harsh as they do scratch some paints

[@TheDetailingSpace]

True, but they're handy for stubborn moss build up, and tbh, OK to use if you're going to machine polish anyway (which I will be in the next video) For normal maintenance washes, I use those super soft, make up style, brushes

[@RHopley]

Did you contact wash with the iron remover & snow foam still on or did you rinse it off?

[@TheDetailingSpace]

I rinsed it on this one, then reapplied a thin coat of snow foam right before washing...

[@JonathanEvans-l7d]

how often should you apply iron tar remover?

[@TheDetailingSpace]

Personally, I just do it 2, maybe 3 times a year.... Some people will do it monthly

[@JonathanEvans-l7d]

@@TheDetailingSpace this remove wax right?

[@adamhutson5187]

I don't know but with the weight of an electric vehicle being more than the equivalent petrol/diesel from the same car sector will an average jack be enough to lift anyway?

[@broadsword6650]

Gross vehicle weight is just under 2000kg, so nothing out of the ordinary for modern vehicles of any kind .

Tooooo complicated so turned off for ceramic protection ❗️😊
