Interior & Exterior Detail / When To Use An Extractor / Koch Chemie Products /

[@aldaley3537]

Amazing interior transformation. I certainly agree on the poor quality of the carpets in most domestic cars and the leather/vinyl/fabric on the seats. Impressive results/techniques as always with the products you use. Koch Chemie seems to be top notch!

[@sammurphy552]

I’m definitely going to change my wash process to copy yours for my clients this summer it seems so much faster and more efficient. Love this channel never fails to educate and entertain

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks so much!!

[@breezy505_adventures]

Nice job Phil, keep it up! I appreciate you keeping it real. For someone like myself whos trying to start out as a part time business - efficiency is key. There are so many you tube detailers spending a lot of time on a car. Knowing real life solutions and tricks to cleaning a car with quality and efficiency - is what's gonna help those of us who are trying to make a livelihood of it

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks so much!! I appreciate that and I’m glad these tips can help others.

White Honda’s with that chrome looks so elegant

[@declanflaherty8958]

I so much like your advice Phil as I often actually steer my client away from extraction when I think its not necessary. One client was not happy about this saying that other places always recommend it. My thoughts are that it has its place and actually as I am based in Finland, the weather and humidity does not help in drying out a car if extracted in early Spring for eg, so I always say I will only do extraction in the Summer or if the client has a warm garage to leave it dry out overnight. Common sense prevails!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks so much! I truly think it’s up to us as Detailers to use common sense and not just soup what we see other guys do. 😎👍🏼

[@platinumautoglasswindowtin88]

I’m in Western Canada(similar climate). I use a 12” portable fan and in winter I use a small portable heater with a window open a couple of inches. Rotate the fan around in the car. Extremely effective, dry in an hour or two.

Somewhere off in the distance a "KZbin" detailer collapses from their head exploding. Dropping knowledge as always. Thank you for the video and keeping it 100% realistic.

[@marioskosmidhs9454]

Love you Phil great video. In Europe we like Koch products and for us the prise of Koch its 1/3 lower than you pay in usa. For excample we pay for Green Star 7euros(4-5 usd)/32oz...... Koch mzr is a Great carpet cleaner, also we use their abbrasive s,.

[@jeffreyrobert9460]

Phil in my opinion Koch Chemie uses the letters on the label to mimic the periodic table of elements. Marketing at its best. I like their products, especially GsF and Gs. .

[@MirandaDetailing]

Yeah they do. That’s the look they went with. But my dyslexic brain can’t keep track of that. Failed advanced science class within the first week! 🤣. I need simple names and descriptions for me to remember.

[@keithcurley6760]

Great video Phil, As a mobile Detailer, every once in a while someone will stop me on the street while they see me spraying down door jambs and asking me, you can do that? I guess they think it's strange to have water so close to the interior of the vehicle. as you know it's safe and yes some water gets into the interior, but no big deal.

[@tedlym.3390]

Your extracting is excellent. Thank you,

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks

[@platinumautoglasswindowtin88]

Nice video, good explanation of your process and it’s results

[@libbyotoole8760]

Great video again,and very straight talking.Car looks great 👍

[@paulhamilton6013]

Good turnaround on that 👍 I have been using the Koch range for quite a while now, for GS on interiors I use it at 1:20, it’s not very often I need to go to 1:10 unless it’s a real stinker. Give it a go at 1:20 and you will get double the product 😁

[@jp2421]

We have a 2016 Honda Accord Sport also. I disliked the carpet so much that we gave it to our middle son. Love the paint and interior styling. Drove it for the first time in a long time yesterday and it's so slllloooowwww but I've been driving our Audi and Mustang GT, so it's not a fair comparison.

[@johng753]

Do you prefer Koch Chemie Green Star or Pol Star for cleaning interiors?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. It all depends on the type of interior. For tan cloth seats we use Pol star because it’s ph neutral and doesn’t cause browning. But sometimes on really bad stains I’ll use green star.

[@vic12416]

Ok I have had my detailing business for over ten years. So when you put chemicals on interior and break up that dirt it needs to be extracted because that stream is just gonna push that old dirt into other ares or deeper into the material

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. I appreciate the info. Perhaps it does to a small degree. But when steaming and using microfibers it cleans the surface and the microfibers will pull the moisture and dirt from the top fibers. I know what you mean, some dirt will be pushed into the fibers below, but it’s very little. Extracting all the time is not advised all the time. It will cause more issues from our experience. Cleaning the surface and having it dry quickly is the best way for us. But it’s totally up to each detailer to determine what they need to do for their customers. Thanks.

[@ws7002]

Nice video Phil.....Great job on the vehicle

[@J1Z06]

Superb job, Jess and Phil(Ladies first!) as always. I may have to try some Green Star.... lots of people like it for interiors and added punch for foam washing. Thanks for sharing these very satisfying vids!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks man!!😎👍

[@MyGuyKirby]

Phil, do you normally for interiors work in a top down order so that floor work is the last step? Are you sure those gunshots were not Detailers being shot at for running their extractors too much?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi yeah that pretty much how we detail interiors. But the headliner is usually done around the middle or end of the job since we just spot hit it. 🤣

[@catguy64]

Always great videos Phil to start off the day. ☕️

[@edmobileautodetailing]

Hi friend, what an excellent video. I have a question, where do I buy the accessory for your vacuum cleaner?

Great video full of real world tips and knowledge. All of the Koch Chemie products I have used are amazing. How do you like green star compared to Pol star? Thank you for the video.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks. Yeah I like them so far. I like both of them. But I like the fact that Pol Star is PH neutral. Pretty cool.

[@HITS-MEDIA]

Would it be ok to use a 2800 psi pressure washer for detail with the right nozzle

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Sure you would just have to be mindful of the pressure when working around edges and. It get to close to the paint.

[@dontridedirtydrd2282]

Definitely a wealth of information from watching your channel, thank you! On the wheels, did you dilute super clean? If so, what was your dilution ratio?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Thanks. Yes we dilute Super Clean 1:4.

[@stuartkipp6533]

Great detail Phil n Jess! I'm with you guys on the topper debate, 3, 6, 12 months durability, who cares just put it on every time you wash! It only takes 10mins😁 and the car is going to look great! Cheers Stuart

Nice work Phil! That white really pops! What would you say is the longest lasting AIO polish that you have used?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Thanks. It’s hard to say. Sometimes we don’t see some of the vehicles that we polish with them. But we did get to see the Puris ceramic polish go about 3 months with great beading still.

Phil how you remove the light marrying from the clay after is you do not perform a correction or enchantment service? ....from your experience is the wax application with a foam pad( maybe black) and a Da capable of do both wax+ remove the light mar from the clay?

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi. Yes when we use out DA polisher and a cream wax or sealant with a soft pad it has enough cleaning action from the pad that it will remove the marring. The clay marring is very minor and is removed easily.

[@marioskosmidhs9454]

@@MirandaDetailing love you sir thanks...!!!!i agree

[@krustykrab4470]

Whats good MiraGang! Love your videos! I have a detailing question: Can you remove Clay Bar Marring without introducing a polish? I want to add the clay bar service in my wash packages, but i am not to sure if it can be removed without polishing the car with a polish cream and cutting/finishing pad. Thanks! Keep up the videos MiraGang!

[@MirandaDetailing]

Hi! Unfortunately once clay bar marring is induced it needs at least a light polish. Even with a soft pad and a wax or sealant apply my machine will remove it. That’s usually what we do. No need to polish it extensively. So just use your DA polisher with a soft pad and apply your wax or sealant by machine and you’ll be fine.

Hey Phill, great video like always man. Also, I went to purchase the cordless SPTA polisher from Amazon but it seems they’ve taken it down. Working on a new one perhaps? They have a brand called Popoman...I know silly name, but have you seen or heard of it? Thanks man!

Finally you got Spray Nine, it was difficult to get it due to the pandemic. You got to get Jess the glass tool cleaner from Stoner's called reach and clean quick change tool that is an arm with a triangle at the end and she will love it also for those tight corners. I got mine from Walmart but it is also sold at Advanced Auto, Amazon and other places.

[@MirandaDetailing]

Oh yeah. We had spray nine for a while now. I bought a ton of it when it was available on Amazon. Yea we also have that tool for the glass also.

Isn’t that Honda Carpet just a Daisy to clean I wish all cars had Tesla carpets 😂 great video as always these people don’t understand that you detail as a business and not just for KZbin you would think they would know the difference by now

[@kimnewling5728]

Wow. You guys are awesome. I gotta pause the video and take notes. I'm not a professional, so when I do friends and family, I add some of your steps detailing. Your right. I have a 2017 Pilot and a 2019 Ridgeline, and the carpet is cheap. If I get aggressive with carpet trying to get pet hair, the carpet "fuzzs" up. I think it's ruining carpet. I think I'll get that diamond shaped brush you have. Tell your neighbor to stop shooting in residential area. Not very responsible. Thank you so much for all your videos!!
