Mouldy Supra Deep Clean Detail | First Wash in Decades

[@ForensicDetailing]

How would you have tackled this one?

[@SiR2Dean]

Send it to someone like yourself... 👍 😉 top job guys

[@scandinaviandetailing]

I would have done the same steps as you did! It's usually quite tough to get the paint perfect when the grime has been cooking for 24 years! Great job!

[@ForensicDetailing]

@@scandinaviandetailing yer. there was no perfecting this but its at that age generally where your OEM clearcoat is probably going to need to be redone anyway. my e36 was the same.

[@olliebert2788]

I wouldn't let it get that bad!

[@TommyApel]

Rare car he says, yet there is 2 standing outside the shop :)

[@Lovetheducks]

My family owned car dealerships and when this model Supra first came out I had to drive the first one of the boat in Oakland back to Sacramento. Everytime I stopped someone asked what I was driving and that was most beautiful car they had ever seen. Even pulled over by a cop didn’t ask me for my license just apologized for pulling me over but had to see this car up close. I’ve never seen a car get so much attention and at the time six speed manuals were unheard of. This car will always have special place in my heart.

[@stopsign4384]

This car will have a special place in countless lives. Toyota really missed the mark with the new "Supra". All they had to do was use the MK4 as a base and keep it looking close while upgrading everything else.

[@frytas12]

fake

[@Lovetheducks]

@@frytas12 lol love haters.

[@-mp]

@@Lovetheducksfor some reason I doubt this… no one cared about these cars back then nearly as much as they do nowadays. Stopped everywhere you went and everyone glazing you about how beautiful it was? I could see that happening today don’t get me wrong, but back then even enthusiast owners were letting these cars go for next to nothing. They weren’t considered very special and they most definitely weren’t anywhere near as respected and regarded as they are today. No I’m not a Supra hater, I love my Toyotas and more specifically Lexus, your story just sounds over the top haha.

[@Lovetheducks]

@@-mp well thank you for calling me a liar but hate to break it to you the story 100% true. It was a brand new car that had not been seen before. I literally was driving one of the first ones off the boat so yes it happened. And they sold very well at our dealership when they first arrived so thanks for history lesson on vehicles my family sold. Let’s try not to call people you know nothing about liars. You don’t like my comment great say that but don’t call me a liar.

[@no_lft_shft]

I moved out of my house and into an apartment complex and haven't been able to detail since. No water connections no outlets outside so these videos have really been helping me get my cleaning fix. Thanks John. The car looks absolute incredible.

[@awpdevil]

It's doable. I do mine weekly/bi-weekly with rinseless wash and then for wheels and tires I have a battery powered Ryobi pressure washer (brushless version) that has a siphon tube to pull from any water source. So I fill one bucket with rinseless, another with wheel stuff, and another with just water for the pressure washer from the bathtub.

[@monbx90x]

I too live in an apartment complex and do rinseless washes I also visit the local petrol station jet wash with my chemicals and accessories (of course never touching the dirty brushes)

[@Redacted1312]

Same as man.. can’t even do basic maintenance coz we don’t have a garage

[@danharwood]

I moved to Germany, you're not even allowed to wash your car at home here! 😱

[@AnitaHannjob]

….nobady cares!!

[@decker0373]

An iconic car, it deserved better than what it had gone through so it's really satisfying to see the end result. Good work to everyone that worked on it. 👏🔥

[@Amor1990]

Improperly stored. That’s it

[@TommyEgan101]

Overhyped ugly car 😂

[@michaelcorneliussen9994]

An icon brought back from the death , just lovely 😍♥️

[@colingarner6175]

IT’s Japanese how can it be iconic ?

[@fmcx9]

​@@colingarner6175 that doesn't mean it can't be iconic.

[@markopolo9936]

Brilliant work and an amazing transformation. Makes me think, if cars could talk, the stories they could tell. This one would be thanking you guys a whole bunch!

[@interabang]

"A whole bunch" ? You mean with some cans of soda and cookies 🙄

[@smallestpickle]

"yeah, my driver drove me into a wall while trying to practice drifting haha xd"

[@marquisethomas5611]

Im glad this isnt one of those channels that photoshop their thumbnails to make the car look dirtier 👏🏾

[@ForensicDetailing]

FL did the thumb for me on this one in photoshop. So that is not original sorry :( normally I dont do much editing like that.

[@MuthuuriWilliam]

I am 19 years and i would love one day to own a supra .i love fhe way u guyz have restored the supra

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

Massive respect. Not just the clean but the video quality 👌

[@steveemmerson4954]

So sad to see a neglected car in that state. Absolute respect to you guys for saving this car and giving it a chance to live again. My neighbours ask me why I bother cleaning my car when it will get dirty again, I smile and tell them I enjoy keeping my car in tip top condition, they shake their head and will never understand …

[@sandwichbar8226]

Absolutely unreal. I love these kind of details! Nice one, Jon and all the team .

[@supersaabclaire]

Very satisfying to watch

[@peterd5496]

16:36 best edit ever. Loved the transformation.

[@TheZigYo]

Fast & Furious throwback in the first 10 seconds 🤩 Amazing video and great work! Those before and after shots when polishing.. Just wow 🤩

[@suke6395]

他の洗車関連の動画を見て、アメリカ人の仕事は荒いと思っていたんですが、 凄く丁寧なので驚きました。 これこそプロの仕事ですね。頼む価値があると思いました😊

[@darrenstevens3798]

Serious amount of work, well done Jon & guys ❤️

[@waynefromnewfoundland8740]

Jon, this video was fun to watch and the actual transformation. I noticed that you used the Glaco glass compound. This product is, without any doubt, worth every penny you pay. I had a lot of water staining and road grime stuck to my CRV windshield. I made a purchase strictly with the frame of mind, what do I have to lose. I was absolutely stunned. When I finished removing the compound, I stood in silence and just couldn’t believe the result. Would recommend this product to everyone who would ask. Anyway, my two cents, and till the next one.👍🏻😎

[@michaelm1739]

You and your crew did an incredible job on the Supra. Absolute/y fantastic how you brought new life to this vehicle. I agree to what you said that if you enjoy what you are doing time doesn't matter.

[@PeterGedrim]

Great transformation from beginning to end. Can’t help but think you missed a trick though John. I agree with your method of ‘dry soak’ for the pre-wash, especially this level of dirt. This would have been a perfect example if you had shown a before/after shot once the snow foam had been rinsed and before you went into the contact wash. 👍🏼

[@WOODMANJ]

A huge transformation from when you found it. The owners can only be ecstatic with how it looks now!

[@jurislecompte]

Your speech at the end made me subscribe to the channel. Love seeing genuine people who are passionate with their profession. Cheers!

[@andrewstudholme3169]

Wow...is that a SUPRA! Pleasure to watch absolute legends at there game, your cuppa tea was well earned! Cheers from NZ

[@Dj_Ganty]

What a breath taking video, I was welling up at the end from such an amazing job you guys pulled off fantastic thank you for producing this video such a beautiful iconic sports car being served justice and brought back to life as it should. I have my pride n joy (also black and normally kept in my heated garage) a 95 Corsa with an Astra GTE engine conversion, not quite a Toyota Supra I understand but it brings a lot of nostalgia and happiness to my life from when I passed my test 18 years ago. I've barely drove it 100 miles in 6 years of ownership and the time has come for some mechanical work but sadly it's spent some time (5 months) in a busy dusty garage compound and the state it's become with moss and scum build up etc (similar to the Supra's condition) WAS very VERY upsetting to see up until I watched this video. I am now excited to get it back and attempt to relay the efforts you've selflessly demonstrated here. Thank you once again Forensic Detailing Channel definitely worth a subscribe 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@peterowen4456]

Wonderful video. Really touching to see the owner and his daughter react at the unveiling. Proof, if proof were needed, that a car can get pretty filthy just sitting outside in a driveway.

[@DjNikGnashers]

This is a great video Jon, and shows what most main dealership valeters have to do every day of the week. Unfortunately, when people buy new cars every 3 years, they tend to simply run them into the ground knowing they are getting a new one when the pcp runs out. So they tend to never clean them inside or out. Not usually as bad as this Supra, but some are terrible inside, literally covered in chocolate and felt tip pen in the back where the kids have been. That said, you guys did a superb job, and for free, wow, real respect to all of you.

[@DjNikGnashers]

@@typedrew Excuse me ? How do you know what every dealership valeter does and at what level ? You don't, that's the truth. I have a lot of respect for Jon, and the work he does, and have been a subscriber for many years, I also worked as a valeter myself, and also had detailing work done on my own car. There are levels, and some dealership valeters are highly skilled, and can carry out 2 or 3 stage paint correction, and some detailers charge top money for a very average job most valeters could do. So please stop being a know it all without knowing it all.

[@DjNikGnashers]

@@typedrew Shut up embarrassing yourself. Where do you get 99.9% from, plucked from your uneducated imagination that's where. I'll take my personal experience of valeting and detailing over your trolling thank you. And what is a 'porter' ? Jon and myself are both English, it's valeter or detailer son.

[@LeFrere72]

Well - there's your payment, Jon: big smiles and a lot of respect for what you do. It's often as simple as that. Wonderful video, mate 👏🏻.

[@leeroyfortuin199]

So glad you guys give the iconic supra a new fresh start

[@joejones6968]

You and your team are absolute artisans, and exceptional the way you treated, and respected the car. Your crew stop short of a true miracle!! Fantastic!! That is a very iconic car, and you certainly brought about its true beauty. Wow!!

[@joelg34]

This really did put a smile on my face. You're absolutely right Jon, if you're doing something you love, it doesn't feel like work at all. Another masterpiece from Forensic Detailing and the Wax is Dead boys. Bravo.

[@AndrewGibson22]

Beautiful to see the transformation 💚

[@LonesomeDrifter1987]

its sooo nice seeing yall bring this Supra back from the dead. only think that I personally didn't like about the car itself was one it was an automatic, and two was those aftermarket wheels which I wouldn't went back to stock or some other sets.

[@fordyford]

You legends. Restoring the exterior and interior of this modern JDM icon for free is amazing. Good on you guys, stunning result.

[@gtrealm]

Very nice to see nice people giving back to the community. Well done guys.

Amazing transformation. To a true car and detailing enthusiast this was very satisfying

[@magnusdanielsson2749]

Nice refurbish! Ive done one-stage polish/cleaning with a turtle wax product on 3 cars now and its quite amazing how much life one can bring back to an old paint with some simple tools and elbow grease.

[@MettleMountains]

What a great job and nice thing to do! Many won’t understand what it means to the owner, what a lovely video!!

[@kevinmcg6747]

Great job and well done to you Jon and the 'Wax is Dead' Team. Ref the why bother commentary, I had a neighbour who wondered over asking me why I bothered washing the car when it was only going to get dirty again - I simply asked whether he bothered wiping after a 'number 2' or did he take a similar outlook to personal hygiene. He hasn't asked again Cheers, Kevin.

Absolutely brilliant, what a great detail. I've always been a huge fan of the Supra but so many that are still around have been heavily modified. This example is spot on it has a lovely oem+ feel about it. All it needed was a top tier detail which you and the lads delivered. Fantastic!

@@ForensicDetailing 😂😂 loving your work son! Keep it up! Proof that one day all of us can reach that level of wisdom and perfection! 🤣

[@kwl189]

Incredible transformation. Not sure about the headlights but maybe that's because they need a full restoration or I don't know what the stock headlights look like back when they were out of the factory.

[@ForensicDetailing]

the right one the seal had failed so the inside was like scaled up. both need splitting down and like refinishing the inside plastic bits. we were chatting with nigel about this, might be easy to source other ones or send to companies that refurb them.

[@kwl189]

@@ForensicDetailing guessed as much. That's the problem with so much moss and algae. Did a restoration of something similar with an MX5 a while back. Headlights needed a full on restoration and for that to happen, the whole unit needed to be stripped out with compound polishing etc. The lights needed dismantling or replacing and the insides needed as much as the outside. Think the seal was starting to fail on one of them as condensation and water droplets was starting to build up inside. Then the air blower was starting to give out just as the car was being readied for sale (impeccable timing, couldn't have written a better script!). The algae ruined the stop top of the car (honestly last time I ever buy a soft top, such hard work to restore and maintain especially outside in the British weather) and embedded itself into the very fabrics and plastic trims of the car. Honestly never worked harder restoring that car to a half decently respectable standard in my whole life. Looked good though with a full lick of blackener on the soft top and protection.
