I honestly don't know why you don't have more subscribers. You cover a huge variety of products, explain measurements clearly and comment about results and ease of use based upon your experiences. Plenty of content creators out there who just waffle. As ever, great, informative video. I've tried products based on your recommendations and switched as a result. Keep up the fantastic work.

Thank you that's very kind I appreciate the support!

Another terrific video! I always learn something from you. The other day I was watching another detailer working on a very expensive vehicle ($150,000+). The techniques they were using just didn't seem right and I thought to myself, "that's not how Heather would do it" 😊

[@AutoCareHQ]

Haha thanks very much for watching Jim!

Such clean wheels really finish a job off perfectly. Every day is also a learning day - lubricity- oily smoothness, as of a surface; slipperiness! Nice.

Great to see you back. I certainly would endorse using a foam cannon applied protection on cold days as it helps to save the hands! Autoglym polar range is excellent - not the cheapest but it gives good protection which lasts several weeks and makes maintenance washes much easier. Enjoyed the footage. 🚙

[@jamienevill1768]

Another brilliant job Heather. You're correct about drying aids and microfibre cloths. It's like using fabric conditioner to make them fluffy. Any concerns, wash them in a mild solution of salt water and rinse in fresh water from the tap. Leave to dry naturally and they should be fine. Happy Valeting 😊

[@AutoCareHQ]

Cheers Jamie!

It's good to see you back on KZbin but I can't believe that's been two weeks already. A couple of points. I am glad someone else rinses snow foam top to bottom along with the guy from Yum and myself in general. I have never thought of overlaying citrus with alkaline snow foam and I do appreciate that was a really dirty car. Any of my cars never get that dirty but I do have time on my hands but if I had a friends car in I know what to do. My detailing guru who sells me my products advises me to overlay alkaline snow with ph neutral snow with a rinse in between to neutralise anything that is missed at the rinse stage and I think it makes sense having a further dirt remover prior to contact washing. Maybe it's just here in Scotland that cars need a double hit as Angelwax also have two snow foams Cleanliness a citrus infused one then Fastfoam a traditional snow foam that the recommend are used in conjunction with each other. I had been using the TW graphene tyre dressing but I got a bit bored of it as I was unsure on it's longevity so have reverted back to GT Serum as I had a spare litre bottle still to use. I do really like the TW wheel & Tyre cleaner in the red bottle in that range but I don't use it every wash and use it mainly as a tyre cleaner. I did pick up two bottles from Euro Car Parts recently as they were on sale for £6 each. My spray on spray off sealant of choice is Auto Finesse Lavish and AutoBrtite Direct Magiseal in that order but I tend not to use them on my car or the wife's as I wax them from the one's I own from Mitchell & King but our Son who lives in Aberdeen gets his car protected with them as I don't see it that often or for very long in between the rain. I forgot to say those Audi wheels came up a treat with that combination of chemicals. I look forward to your future thought provoking content.

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks very much for watching John, I appreciate the insight too!

[@ToberuWilson]

Hey heather, just wanted to say WOW! The car looks absolutely incredible! You did an amazing job getting every nook and cranny clean, it seriously looks brand new. I noticed you don't have as many reviews on Google as some other detailers, which is a shame because your service is truly top-notch. If you're interested, I'd be happy to help you reach out to some of your previous clients (with your permission, of course) and encourage them to leave a review on Google. Positive reviews can make a huge difference in attracting new customers, and you definitely deserve the recognition! No pressure at all, but if you're open to it, let me know and I can help get the word out about your fantastic detailing skills. Thanks again for the amazing video, keep up the good work!

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks very much I really appreciate it! That's really kind but to be honest I'm not doing much detailing professionally at the moment as I'm focusing more on my web design business, but I'll keep it in mind in future!

[@sudakarr7304]

Hey Heather! I notice that you generally use the handheld sprayer to prewash the wheels, instead of a foamer / foam cannon. Would you tell me why you do it this way? Very new to this space and your channel has been so brilliant for me to learn more about detailing and care care! Thank you :)

[@AutoCareHQ]

Thanks for watching, I'm really glad you're finding the channel helpful! It's mainly because the sprayer is a bit quicker to use compared to a pump foamer to get full coverage, and it's more compatible with the types of chemicals I use. I could use a foam cannon but the chemicals I usually use to pre-wash the wheels are relatively strong and the foam cannon would dilute it a bit too much to be as effective. It also slows me down having to switch between the foam cannon and pressure washer nozzle which I find a bit annoying haha

[@damiandazervin2079]

Hi. Re: the question about changing the day you post the videos…. From a marketing of the channel and growing the audience numbers you should seriously consider Sundays as this day is the posting for many other creators like you so you would capture these people as they have already been watching these similar channels like Forensic Detailing, Tyrell’s Classic workshop, Dominic Chinea and Harry Metcalf to name a few. If you really want to increase watching numbers you need to aggressively cash in on other KZbinrs viewing numbers. If they post and get watched by tens of thousands then you should post the same day. The additional 15 minutes for your videos is something the audience will invest in I’m sure. Give it a try.
