1st wash in a year?! How to DEEP CLEAN a dirty car

[@mydreaminorbit9297]

I adopted the foam rinse foam method and I love the result. The less dirt on the surface the more peace of mind.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thanks

[@MyGuyKirby]

Yvan always approaches each vehicle and customized its treatment based upon years of experience. Nicely done!

[@diydetailofficial]

The car tells us what it needs to

[@79blustone]

Nick has done well to say about the foam from the gun not being thick- its not a measure of how well the product performs, foam is only just aesthetic! you just need lubrication between your wash media and the panel. Plus just having fun and enjoying simply cleaning your car! Its very ASMR for me!

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you

[@ho5zk]

I used one bucket per panel. And after washing, I count each grain of dirt in the buckets and log it in a spreadsheet.

[@diydetailofficial]

It’s great you’ve found a hobby you enjoy

[@zumik83]

I was doing the foam -> rinse -> foam -> contact wash -> rinse AND been using one bucket for some time now. Glad to see you demonstrating it is an ok method. I usually wait 10 minutes AFTER the first foaming.

[@diydetailofficial]

Excellent

[@David-Godin]

Used all clean out of the 16 ounce bottle for rims and wheels. Getting a gallon and will dilute myself. Also, have the rinseless and incredible suds on the way. Iron remover was sold out. My winter wash is rinseless pump sprayed at home, drive to the self serve wash, rinse there and rinseless from the pump sprayer before driving home and rinseless on 2 microfiber towels and a twisted loop drying towel after I dress the tires. And rinseless on the interior using Yvans damp and dry towel method. Thanks for the KZbin education 😎

Thank you

[@KC-wo2qe]

Love it. I’m the same as you guys, if the cars hammered, soap wash. If it’s only a light wash it’s rinseless all the way. I’m waiting for your rinseless in the gallon size to become available in Australia, all stockists don’t seem to have it

We recently washed my son's CRV. He's had it for a couple of years and never washed it. That's him. The paint needed clay, badly, but the iron deposits were relatively minor. After a quick one step, there were a few scratches and the marring was relatively minor. Silver paint that looked a shade brighter afterwards. Hope to have inspired him. Probably not.

[@J1Z06]

I like rinseless when the hose goes away(first frost here in CT, so bucket washes will be going away soon I'm sure). Typical bucket wash would include two buckets, foam, rinse, foam..... several wash mitts. I usually go to about the belt line first, then wash the bottoms with different mitts. Blow dry with a leaf blower... ceramic gloss on a gauntlet towel. Bingo, the vehicle is clean. I always clean the wheels and tires first once they've cooled.

You absolutely can! Both are great

[@andyowen7133]

So good. I’ve been doing the 2 foam method for a couple of years. Pre wash first then second foam for contact lube. But I do still tend to have 2 buckets just because I’m really clumsy and drop my mitt on floor on occasion so rinse it off before going back on. I should prob detail my drive but I’ve only got dad time to get it done.

Great video and reminded me it is time for my annual deep clean as well! For many years, have been performing an annual deep clean to remove and then apply 2 coats of a Turtle Wax Ice Seal N Shine Hybrid Sealant Spray Wax polymer sealant that lasts one year. I use rinseless wash about once a month to keep my garage kept daily driver clean. I am now running low on my half gallon of Purple Power Vehicle & Boat Wash (pH10) which I dilute 1 oz to 3 gallons of water that I have been using for the annual deep clean to remove the old sealant. To replace the Purple Power, would it be advisable to use DIY Rinseless at a higher concentration and with your fine grade clay towel and be as effective in getting down to totally clean paint? Or would DIY All Clean perform better than either for the deep clean in preparation for the 2 coats of polymer sealant? Thanks and love your videos! Doug

[@diydetailofficial]

Doug, DIY Detail All Clean at 15/1 would be great. DIY Detail Rinseless Wash isn’t better if used at a higher concentration.

[@ray6808]

Great video. Question ❓ I sprayed iron remover and used non abrasive mitt on my car. I wasn't able to fully remove all the contaminates. Do I use iron remover again and clay bar? Or do I polish the car to remove like the 10 or 5 percent of contaminates that was left?

[@diydetailofficial]

Polishing is the best approach

[@stephent9990]

Did you not use panel prep after polishing? I couldn't tell if that was panel prep or ceramic gloss you did after the polishing. Also, with these steps how long before you would need to reapply ceramic gloss, wax etc... ( assuming you aren't going to put on a ceramic coating at some point).

[@diydetailofficial]

We used DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss, 6-10 months is average

[@rahouston]

I believe I know the answer but, here it goes. I bought the IK foamer with the battery powered option. Do you recommend using the All Clean on the wheels and wheel wells and using the incredible suds on the rest of the car? I only have one foamer so, I'm trying to determine which one to use the foamer on. I don't have a compressor so, the IK is the only means to foam. Also, I bought a gallon of Rinseless, incredible suds and All Clean. I probably didn't need all 3 right? Oh, I believe the only product that, doesn't foam is the rinseless right?

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you, yes all 3 might be a little overkill, DIY Detail Rinseless Wash will foam but not as much. If you’re washing your car regularly there’s no need for DIY Detail All Clean for wheel cleaning.

[@GeorgePap99]

How come you didn't apply waterspot remover since you did all the prepping? Is this recommended for coated cars so that the coating gets revived or only if there are waterspots? My water is pretty filled with minerals and when it rains lately the water is also very dirty. Wouldn't it be a good idea to to use waterspot remover a few times a year to maintain the coating?

My car has wax on it will this decontamination towel strip off the wax or is it safe to use, also if it is safe to use how often should you use it like once a month. I usually wash my car every weekend. Thanks guys just recently found your channel and I subscribed

[@CottonCandyGabe]

Depends on the strength of the wax. A decontamination towel, or mitt shouldn't strip a wax or ceramic off a car. And you really should only decontaminate your paint when its needed. Maybe once to twice a year, maybe slightly more depending on where you live or how your weather is.

[@diydetailofficial]

No, it will not degrade a good wax, it has no abrasives. You can use it as often as you want, but 1-2 times a year is sufficient.

[@BMan100]

Would you have used the brush on the paint if you weren’t planning to polish the car already? Also is it necessary to do a chemical decon wash before or during the physical/towel decon? Or is it fine to use the towel with rinseless as a lubricant without the iron/bug remover

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes the brush is safe. A chemical and mechanical decontamination is the best practice, but the Perforated Synthetic Decontamination Towel can be used with just DIY Detail Rinseless Wash or DIY Detail Incredible Suds alone.

[@Crypto_Curt_]

Here is my 10 Step DIY Detail Wash Method: 1) Iron Remover: (Optional as needed) Use in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight as the product has a powerful and unpleasant odor. Spray Iron Remover (IR) directly onto a cool surface (wheel or panel) and allow it to dwell for 4-5 minutes. Lightly agitate, if necessary, any ferrous particles will dissolve, forming a purple solution. Do not allow the product to dry on the surface. Rinse off or layer All Clean Multipurpose Cleaner overtop as part of Pre-Treatment. 2) Pre-Treatment: Spray All Clean (AC) ready to use bottle or dilute 15:1 in pump sprayer to foam lower vehicle body panels, wheels, tires and contaminated areas (avoiding windows). 3) Pre-Wash: Add 30 ml or 1 oz of Incredible Suds (IS) to water in a foam gun/cannon and stir. Spray IS overtop the AC and allow it to dwell. Scrub lower body panels and areas with heavy contamination of dirt, grime, bugs, bird droppings etc. using a mitt or soft bristle brush. 4) Wheels & Tires: Empty contents of foam gun/cannon into a dedicated wheel wash bucket with 3-4 gallons of water and froth. Scrub wheel wells, barrels, wheels and tires using a wheel & tire brush. Rinse the vehicle from top to bottom removing all soap and chemicals. 5) Contact Wash: Refill foam cannon with 30ml or 1 oz of IS and stir. Spray IS starting at the top and working down and around the entire vehicle. Empty contents of foam gun/cannon into a clean wash bucket with 3-4 gallons of water and add another 30-60 ml or l -2 oz of IS to the wash bucket, add water to froth. Soak a plush wash mitt or Legacy Sponge in the bucket and wash one panel at a time using straight lines with minimal pressure. Flip the mitt or sponge after each panel or as needed and dip into the IS wash bucket after using both sides. 6) Decontamination: Use DIY Clay Towel (synthetic decontamination perforated towel) with Iron Remover, Ceramic Gloss or Quick Beads depending on lubricant needs. Shake the bottle to mix well before applying.*Be sure to break-in a new Clay Towel by first using it on a window to remove the factory coating. Soak the Clay Towel in the wash bucket to lubricate. Fold the Clay Towel into four equal sides. Spray once on the Clay Towel, once on the panel then deposit the Clay Towel where sprayed on the panel. starting at the top and working down and around the entire vehicle saving the bottom half for last. Same process no matter which lubricant is used (IR, CG or QB). Using minimal pressure rub the Clay Towel in a smooth motion against the panel until it gently glides across the surface. After using all four sides of the Clay Towel, dip it in the wash bucket to clean and lubricate. Continue the process until all panels are decontaminated. Rinse the vehicle thoroughly from top to bottom. 7) Seal & Protect Option 1- Ceramic Gloss (CG): Shake the bottle to mix well before applying. After the vehicle has been rinsed and is still wet, lightly mist detail spray into the drying towel and onto the intended surface. Wipe with a clean, dry plush microfiber towel, buffing until the product is removed to create a protected streak-free shine. 8) Seal & Protect Option 2-Quick Beads (QB):Shake the bottle to mix well before applying. After the vehicle has been rinsed and is still wet, lightly mist QB detail spray over the entire exterior surface of the vehicle including windows and wheels. Let Quick Beads dwell on the exterior of the vehicle for 30-60 seconds. Rinse off starting at the bottom of the vehicle and working up to the top to activate QB. Continue to spray until the foaming action disappears. Dry off the vehicle with a premium drying towel. Starting with the glass first. If used in direct sunlight only apply to one panel at a time and rinse after 15 seconds. 9) Tire Dressing: Spray directly onto clean, dry tires evenly. Allow the product to penetrate, then wipe away excess. For best results, apply to clean and dry tires. 10) Interior Clean & Protect: This car interior protectant spray is a jack-of-all trades and can clean every single surface inside your car from the dashboard to glass, plastic, vinyl, and more. For the best results, spray the interior car cleaning product onto a clean microfiber cloth or towel to avoid overspray. Wipe the interior surface evenly with a microfiber cloth, repeat until your vehicle’s interior surfaces are clean and dressed. Wipe away any excess product or buff to reduce shine.

5:03 I can't believe he's doing that. Is this supposed to be a joke?

[@diydetailofficial]

No joke, that brush is very safe.

[@diydetailofficial]

Not a joke, it’s completely safe on paint.

[@fluzzerr]

@@diydetailofficial If the brush were truly "completely safe" for the paint, we'd opt for it over microfiber wash mitts to clean car paint. Let's be realistic here; you're aware it's causing scratches on the paint 100% of the time.

[@diydetailofficial]

Give it a try, you will be very surprised.
