This is the reason I am switching to DIY products where I can. Teaching and help to us beginners.

[@diydetailofficial]

That's great!

My wife spilled a large cup of coffee on her light gray seats… 10 years ago. I was able to pull the stain out using Rinseless wash, drill brush, and a micro fiber. I was blown away.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thanks for sharing

[@greghaefs4677]

Love to see the tools Yvan uses when cleaning leather seats. Just efficiency that he uses and tricks and trades.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you.

[@malachi2371]

Yvan, your best interior tutorial to date IMHO. I think it was what I know of you at your best!

[@diydetailofficial]

Wow, thanks!

[@Mowthe]

Awesome video! Respect to Yvan for being such a phenomenal mentor and sourch of knowledge to young and eager entrepreneurs like this young man. And to guys like me who are hobbiests who just love vehicles! Order has been placed! Thank you!

[@diydetailofficial]

I appreciate that!

Just ordered a gallon, can’t wait to use it!

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you.

[@adamvalenti3521]

It’s a great investment

[@chrisdenman1985]

Thanks guys! So much great info here! Learned some new tips and tricks from Yvan!

[@diydetailofficial]

Great to hear!

[@jamesp57867]

Fantastic video. Great collaboration. I think DIY detail has made a major impact on the detailing business. I'm going to use as many DIY products as I wish. Fantastic stuff.

[@jamesp57867]

And I'm gonna try that polishing tip on my leather seats!

[@diydetailofficial]

Glad it was helpful!

[@davidruggles996]

Rinseless on the interior fabrics? YES. I finished a hammered family Prius last week... Tackled the fabric seats and carpets (after a thorough blow-out and vacuum) with DIY rinseless and a wool pad on a rotary. Seats were dry 10 minutes later and all but the worst stains were gone. 😎👍

[@diydetailofficial]

Nice work!

[@hello-ef4bn]

Thank you for suggesting to keep the SDS on hand. My coworker was overwhelmed by some fumes and the fan said nothing about the ingredients, took forever to google it. Will keep them all on hand now.

[@diydetailofficial]

Sorry to hear that, hope you’re alright

[@tomevans54586]

[@ang2202]

Really amazing video. I appreciate all of you. When dry extracting the fabric seats, just to make sure i got it right, for a sedan, 5 wool pads 1 for each seat, rotary speed 1 with rinseless wash or all clean if its very dirty? Again, thank you.

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes, Thank you.

Hello from Boynton Beach,FL! Just applied DIY 3 yr. ceramic coating on a beautiful '24 Blk. Suburban.

[@diydetailofficial]

Excellent

[@shawdewson]

How many other professionals go out of their way to answer all of your questions?! Ivan is a great guy.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you.

[@adamcordeiro47]

@diydetail based off personal experience I feel like rinseless wash actually cleans better than a lot of dedicated interior cleaners. Have you found this to be the case also?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes

[@d.hoffman7031]

Gr8 video! Forgive me if this was asked already...how would you clean a headliner where water has infiltrated thru a faulty gasket and left a stain?

[@diydetailofficial]

Replace it

[@VassRulez]

Thanks, DIY team for the great video. I had a question, if we forgot to dampen the microfiber towel before washing the car would it be fine dampen it using the dirty solution afterward or not advised? Also assuming no other chemicals were in the bucket besides rinseless.

[@diydetailofficial]

That’s fine

[@DJJDSKREWED]

Ivan is the goat for sure always learning from him!

[@diydetailofficial]

Thanks

[@barbarapolinarnapiere2081]

Just got a gallon of DIY Rinseless wash. Can’t wait to try it! Question, is the cap for the gallon size rinse less wash equal 1 oz?

[@diydetailofficial]

1/2 oz

[@ivanigk]

When i started out, had no money for a compressor, so i bought an electric "pc duster", it works great for what Yvan said , Yes its less powerfull but it gets the job done. Also the battery lasts enough for 3 or 4 cars. And it can also be used to get water out of certain problems spots on the exterior (Mirror drip alergies)

[@diydetailofficial]

Good plan

[@alphag5240]

I didn't understand why I should be shop based to use DA sander with brush attachment on it 28:58 Does it need huuuge air compressor and air sander? Wouldn't hook n loop version brushes work with electric sander?

[@diydetailofficial]

It needs lots of air. The electric ones will stall

[@phevnorth]

Is it recommended to use clean and protect on the dashboard for its uv inhibitors or is rinseless wash sufficient. i always thought dash boards can fade overtime due to sunlight. Or do most manufacturers use plastics that have uv resistant materials?

[@diydetailofficial]

UV inhibitors are only really useful with a convertible

[@ang2202]

When using rinseless wash for car upholstery, does it leave polymer spots similar to exterior of paint? Also, does it help reduce wicking? Thank you

[@diydetailofficial]

It leaves nothing behind, yes it helps to reduce wicking

[@gregoryhyde6329]

I’m about to order a gallon of all clean and rinseless. I don’t want to spill product while pouring it. Do you recommend a certain pump or portioner to help get an ounce at a time?

Hi , for your tip to use a da with wool pad or microfiber on leather seat , at what speed ?

[@diydetailofficial]

Just enough for backing plate rotation.

[@TheEwponkala]

I really like 303 aerospace protectant as it is recommended for my bed cover, however, I also use it on the interior, am I hurting the interior? Have you had any experience with this product?

[@diydetailofficial]

No problem if you follow instructions

[@joedavison2675]

Can't wait for this. Bought a BMW X7 from the dealer and they stored the extra tires in the rear. Needless to say the headliner is marked up with dirty tire marks

[@diydetailofficial]

Not fun

[@ang2202]

Can the air rinseless towel air vents trick work with a shop blower instead of an air compressor?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes, not as efficiently.

[@eddieblount216]

If using rincless wash in a bucket how do you know when the rincless bucket is done and you need to make a new one?

[@diydetailofficial]

When you’re down to the grit guard

Thank you.

[@stevensanchez7740]

Looks perfect for my maintence washes👀

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes it does!

[@Jason-yg2cy]

For the leather (or vegan leather )seats, the most common breakdown is from abrasion (people sliding into seats). Does Interior Clean and Protect provide any abrasion resistance? Does Interior Ceramic provide abrasion protection and how often should it be applied to leather seats that are subject to daily use (driver's seat)? What is the shelf life of Interior Ceramic after it has been opened and how best to store to extend shelf life? Another interior (home) use of DIY Rinseless is for my robotic mop solution. Way cheaper than the solution offered by robotic mop company and does a great job at cleaning floors and cleaning the mop pads in the docking station (equivalent to polisher pad wash system).

[@diydetailofficial]

DIY Detail Interior Ceramic Coating does provide a little abrasion resistance. Yearly application is suggested.

[@Jason-yg2cy]

@@diydetailofficial What is the expected shelf life of Interior Ceramic bottle considering it is a ceramic product. With using a sponge applicator I expect to use less than 2 oz from 16 oz bottle for all hard surfaces in a vehicle. So will an opened bottle still be good for up to 8 years? If not might want to consider selling in smaller bottle (4-8 oz).

[@PolishedMobileDetailing503]

Yvan, going through this tutorial video again…when you use the DA with a wool pad to clean leather seats; what product are you using on the pad? Never mind, you answered the question about 10 minutes later…Rinseless or Interior Clean and Protect.

[@diydetailofficial]

Thanks

[@2Fresh2CleanMobileDetailing]

So an extractor and a steamer is a no go and that a polisher and a compressor is a must tool to have

[@diydetailofficial]

For me, yes

[@ChrisCharpentier-kz5wk]

Once the rinseless wash is diluted in a bucket or properly marked spray bottle. Does it have a shelve life?

[@diydetailofficial]

No

[@The1Music2MyEars]

The most tricky area is the shifter. How do you determine when the material on the shifter is so degraded, that even using a detailer will make it worse and sticky?

[@diydetailofficial]

Unfortunately no way to tell

[@josequiroz4605]

​@diydetailofficial I'm trying to keep it simple. not gona order a million items to detail vehicles if half of products in the market do the exact same thing. believe me I have a small closet with stuff that has been sitting there for the past 4 years and I have done nothing with. so keeping it simple to be efficient

[@ColeTeeter]

@@josequiroz4605 Pretty sure DIY Rinseless Wash has been the best money spent on my car maintenance. So easy to use on interior and exterior, I don't need a pressure washer or anything fancy. (Does help to have some kind of sprayer but an $8 sprayer from Home Depot will do just fine.) I've now got pretty much everything in the DIY catalog short of polishing and ceramic products and no regrets. Everything is simple and easy, my car looks great.

Every car can be. Depends on dirt, first you have to cover car with ith rinsless wash or soap foam. Then hose to get rid of the dirt and then rinsless wash the car once huge chunks of dirt or other stuff are off the vehicle
