Now that is a passionate car lover's car wash. Great job David.

David, The workers at the Hamura plant will be impressed by how careful you are washing the Land Cruiser they built. 😄

Great video! Personally I always try to wash in the shade so that I dont get water spots. I use a grid guard in my dirty bucket to remove any sort of dirt/debris from my wash mit. I also prefer to use a foam cannon to apply a nice thick layer of soap on the entire body, but for quick washes this is not always possible to drag out the pressure washer. For drying, I prefer to use a battery powered leaf blower with a soft brisled end on the hose tube. Gets all the water off and eliminates having to use a towel to dry.

Washing with water in direct sunlight I believe is not recommended.

@europana7 Ай бұрын

I start with the wheels first ...

@jlucguerrier Ай бұрын

What? Lol... Washing with water on direct sunlight is bad? Lol... What is your source? High ph soap in direct sunlight is not recommended.

@geothermal7999 Ай бұрын

True! Water Becomes sun spots and hard to remove. Must be 100% in the shade.

Then your car isn’t waterproof.

@cardo1111 Ай бұрын

True. However sometimes we have no choice and it's usually better than not washing at all.

Thank you again and again. Your videos has positively impacted my knowledge of cars and how to take care of them!!!

@JJS432 Ай бұрын

It’s actually best practice to wash your vehicle every two weeks at the minimum if to prolong the coating. I wouldn’t dare leave a car unwashed with a coating for weeks on end. Also a grit guard in your dirty bucket would be beneficial.

Hi David - love all your videos? David do you recommend ceramic coating a TRD Pro 4Runner - 1 year old! Or is Wax good enough? Thank you!

@AutomotivePress Ай бұрын

If you don't mind paying for it, the ceramic coating is definitely worth doing. You can also learn to do it yourself...

@jlucguerrier Ай бұрын

Good lord, a lot of people really don't know how to wash a car. I started using that TW ceramic wash but hated that it didn't make any suds. Also, I think it leaves a ceramic film when it's rinsed off. That could mask the properties of your graphene coating. You really want a soap that doesn't leave anything behind like carpro reset. Good video though. I did my own graphene ceramic coating and top it off after every wash.

@kenty6973 Ай бұрын

Whether 2 or 3 bucket methods, ALWAYS wash your car under shade when the surface is not hot. Wheels are the most dirty part to wash, but since I switch all pads to Akebono, they generate much less dust and are much easier to clean.

I live in Flagstaff AZ and we have a ridiculous amount of pine trees that love to cover our cars in sap and pollen. I gotta run my LC through a touchless wash just to pre wash it. When I’m finally done with the hand wash I have 24hrs before the pine trees ruin everything 😂

For the roof, I open one door at a time and stand on the door sill, with one hand holding the grab handle while the other hand is applying soap or rinsing with water. This saves standing on a stool or chair which can move on you. Also l like how you don’t use a high pressure washer, which can force water into sealed areas causing rust many years later.

Hi, sir. I got an answer. I own a bz4x which has the standard paint(black) I understand that it isnt metallic. so what is the difference, and how do i maintain the regular paint?

@ducodefaria6355 Ай бұрын

Now that you have a grahene or ceramic coating. You should learn how to do a rinsceless wash. Just as good results in half the time without using your hose. There are many You tube video's on this. However, it will not work with a real dirty vehicle. - I would have done a rinse less wash on your Landcruiser. Also, you could use a topper like Amplify by Armour Supply that lasts 2 months. It will protect your coating and gloss it up a notch. Rinseless wash also is good way to wash your vehicle in above freezing temperatures.

@jlucguerrier Ай бұрын

Rinseless isn't better than a traditional wash but it's definitely faster.

@sandan500 Ай бұрын

Each to his own but for me it is just a car a tool to get me from point A to B no more and no less. I have a 2024 Lexus RX350 and a 2024 Honda Ridgeline Black Edition because I like to be safe and comfortable as possible. I just take them to the auto car wash when I get the time. I have much better things to do than polish my vehicles. We don't drive very much since we are retired so that is one reason but we are just not that caring about the cars. When we did wash our cars we just hosed them down then use a brush to soap up one section at a time with one of us soaping and the other rinsing. Lastly we did the tires and wheels and then we dried with old bathroom towels we save for these jobs. I haven't waxed in a long time since the new paints hold up fairly well. When I was younger I was fanatical about car cleaning and waxing but as I got older I have more important things to consider. Putting a lot of time and effort into a car which is going to get road dirt, bugs and dings along with inconsiderate folks who park next to me regardless of how far away I park is a waste of my valuable time. If I had a car with paint or body that didn't hold up or rust I would buy a different brand next time. By the time that it would be worn badly I will be tired of it anyway and want a new one. I always bought only what I could afford to pay cash and I have never had a car payment on something that is worth less after I finish paying for it. I was 50 years old after the kids were done with college before I could afford to buy a new car or truck with cash. The worst investment in the world is a car which depreciates every year.

Do you feel the ceramic coating is better than paint protection film PPF?

@jlucguerrier Ай бұрын

Depend how long you plan to keep the car. Ppf is great until you have to remove it. That's a nightmare. Ceramic doesn't protect against chips but it's easy to put on and take off.

@voterdown Ай бұрын

🖐🤣 While a lot of this instruction is correct and as much as I enjoy washing my vehicles, this amount of knit picking can really take away from the simple pleasure of car washing. Also, real “trucks/suvs” shouldn’t look like they never get used as a truck and instead look like fine china! ….but, to each his own😌

@TheBreakfastLover Ай бұрын

"Reapplication of ceramic coat in 1 year"? That's not true. A true ceramic coating can last more than a year, a decontamination wash every year is probably what you meant.

@AutomotivePress Ай бұрын

Not re-application of the ceramic coating. There is a "refresh" version you use to rejuvenate the original coating that needs to be used once a year.

@TheBreakfastLover Ай бұрын

@@AutomotivePress in that case you're referring to a ceramic topper. Some require that to maintain warranty but not all.

@georgetown8986 Ай бұрын

You must wash the tires. They get dirty. And the tires must be spray shined along with the wheels. Not washing the tires / wheels is like not combing your hair in the morning.
