Really enjoyed this one mate , loved the tour to ! To touch on your point about doing a full clean for maintenance money ...I did my brother in law's juke on Saturday ..he's an Uber delivery driver ..car was a pig , I spent over 4 hrs on it ! I finished in the dark with no idea how well I did the exterior wash and the interior was by no means perfect . Was my first time realising A.. customer expectations /job I could deliver and B ....taking on a job without seeing it first ... I earned £50 and I'm still pissed off with myself at the job I did even thoe I slaved at it ....40 mins just on the Matts!!!!! It's only my 4th car so I know I need to learn more and speed up but this video really did resonate . Chin up and Keep up the good work mate !!!!!!

Dave, another great video as always! I’ve watched nearly all in the past couple of days! I’m not a car valet, but I do take care of my own having owned various Audi RS models and now just moved to BMW. I still want the best and to look after them. Looking to order A LOT from Yum cars, thank you, but two questions: What dilution ratios do you use? Can you do a video? For example, I’m thinking Valetpro citrus pre wash just for stubborn stain and tar on bottom half of car, but at what mix? Also, Yum shampoo, or bahama blue - how much per bucket to get a lovely foamy wash as per your videos? I’ve tried some producing no foam no matter how much shampoo/wash wax added? Keep up the great work!

thanks mate ill be 100% honest i never spend time measuring out each product for each wash. when you work at 100mph you dont have time but once you know roughly how much to put in it gets easier. i fill up the bucket first with water then put in shampoo halfway the use machine to produce bubbles from the pressure to get me the best suds. Yum is better in my opinion than bahama blue (sorry duel car care but it is)

Enjoyed the video, i get it that people dont like this new bmw 4 series grill but i think it looks awesome. Especially if you have the right options and have the m sport plus package with black shadow line with extended contents. This is actually the top of the range m440i, which is the performence version with the six cylinder and sports exhaust. But even better is the m4 competition g82 which the grill looks better.

Just a question: I notice you don't seem to use any sort of breathing filter/mask so are you concerned about inhaling or ingesting any of the products you use, especially the aerosol agents, which may be toxic and have a negative affect on to your long term health, lungs, throat esophagus etc?

Do you always begin with a water rinse rather than going straight in with a snow foam? It’s never say right with me when most of the detailing world is about being sensitive to paintwork that the first step is to blast dirt and mud across it under high PSI….what’s your thoughts?
@epicautomotivedetailing

I think people overthink the whole process to be honest. Cars getting maintenance cleans shouldn't worry too much. The clients understand what's involved. I just get worst of it off before foaming but then again sometimes just prewashing is good enough with citrus instead of foaming all the time 👌
