Cleaning 10,000 miles of winter dirt off my Range Rover...

[@itsjoel]

My paint is fine!

[@michaelpoplett983]

Thats good to here but please dont use that lance again cause it will damage paint work

[@michaelpoplett983]

@Cameron temporal i never said i knew anything about cars! The fact being that using a dirt blaster will if you get to close will damage your paint!!

[@MickRiley]

@Cameron temporal er high presure wand close to paint is a big no it can strip older laquer at the 4 inches hes using it at this will remove any previous protective coats applied. that being said this looks a piss poor washer lol

[@abdullahz4804]

it chipped a bit of my bonnet lol i bought one used for 15 quid took the train 2 hours

Joel's next video, "HOW TO RESTORE PAINT DAMAGED BY A KARCHER PATIO NOZZLE,"

[@mic400uk]

@T4 Tips & Guides quite surprised myself, but we've all made mistakes when using new equipment. To be honest, I actually think it's a genius move from Joel, Karcher will view this school boy error, (deliberate or not) and will panic thinking they'll have to pay for respray jobs so they'll send out a nice new Karcher k7 pressure washer to Joel with all the car nozzles so he can demonstrate how to safely use a Karcher on your paint 🤣

[@Sid3300]

As far as we saw the pencil jet was only used on the numberplates

[@justinneill5003]

Yes that nozzle isn’t for cars, I think it even said so on the instructions with mine. I’d be most worried about the lens covers on the rear number plate nights, lost one of mine at the public jet wash despite correct distancing.

[@AllTorque]

LOVED the interaction with your dad .. great banter .. you should def have him on the channel more often! lol

[@MarkHannigansLife]

Probably going to get a million people tell you this but that is the wrong lance ti use. The dirt buster will take the paint off damaged areas!

[@kells77]

It won’t tho w K2 is woefully weak

[@jonnygti]

I’ve never used a pressure washer on any of my cars, and I’ve been driving for 20 years now. Apart from the fact that all of my cars have been 10+ years old, I don’t like them as the high pressure can get into your lights and cause shorting/electrical issues, and potentially damage window rubbers etc. I just never let my car get too dirty, so a normal wash with a bucket of water/car shampoo , and hose pipe/watering can to rinse off, is all that’s ever needed.

[@jimhutton4352]

Oh my word Joel!! You shouldn’t really use the dirt blaster lance on your car! It’s so powerful it could do serious damage if there’s flaking paint or any corrosion.

[@Zaid394]

Precisely.. I was in shock when I saw the spinny hard setting being used

[@itsjoel]

I’m sure it’ll be ok

[@johnennis3542]

😳 Yes, best not to use that on the Porsche it’ll slice the roof in half! I use the other lance head which has a less concentrated spray.

[@jimhutton4352]

@@itsjoel hey Joel, I’m not having a go at you, I love your channel/content it’s a breath of fresh air on KZbin, it’s just a word of warning, something to bear in mind, that lance is more for cleaning patios etc

[@itsjoel]

Hi Jim, yes not to worry It didn’t come across that way at all! You’re totally right, there’s was a Lance for car cleaning but I deliberately used the stronger one and did seem to be ok, but appreciate your concern nonetheless! Wouldn’t do that on something more valuable…

[@loojishtc9899]

Joel, NEVER use the high power lance (twirly jet) on your car, that's for cleaning concrete. It Will strip your paint off. Great video as usual though.

[@jamesf8864]

I came straight to the comments as soon as I saw him turn it on! Scary!! I hope the paint survived 😢

[@kristoffersmith8289]

Depends how close you get

[@hw8724]

Apply snow foam bottom up, lingers on the car longer. Then rinse top down after.

[@olivierrichard6740]

Just quick tip : always start the wash from top to down, from the to the roof to the bonnet, then each side to go on the rear and to finish by the wheels (previously foamed) Exact same way to dry it.

[@infamouselixir90]

Kid always stop while I’m washing my cars! Be it neighbours or random walking past. I always try to engage them because they generally love cars and get excited when they get the chance to get involved with helping. Always keep a spare mitt and wheel brush to hand for them to get involved. Kids should always be encouraged to learn when they are willing to get involved

[@xMaxyODx]

Top man mate! If I was a kid and you let me get involved, I’d have been so happy. I know it’s a simple thing but definitely need more people like you out there 👍🏼

[@kennyg4744]

Joel, you might want to get a lens for that exposed bulb. Hitting it with a jet wash is likely to play havoc with your electrics.

[@1mic3]

I spotted that too- it was bugging the hell out of me.

[@jimmyjt16]

Joel you're using the patio cleaner attachment 🤦‍♂️. Use the other attachment the K2 comes with.

[@philipthomas571]

Great job! You do realise how big they are when you clean them

[@thirtysixtothirtynine9657]

Your most enjoyed video yet! Really! Just a car guy cleaning his car on a nice day. Thanks for inviting us to enjoy with you. Looking forward to the rim cleaning video

[@jp6975]

That colour on that car is stunning - especially when clean. In my opinion its the best colour for the l322 and the only thing that can improve it is a lighter coloured interior.

[@danieljordannicol9937]

Thats the patio attachments you used on the car 😂 it will literally strip the paint on the edges

[@stephenlane9168]

The L322 is an awesome Range Rover before it went full on luxurious in the L405 guise. Yours is a great colour Joel. Keep it long-term and enjoy it 👌

[@stephenoverstreet9898]

Joel the car looks gorgeous! It is astounding what a good deep clean can do for the appreciation of a car. It makes it new again in a way. Yeah, I don’t know if I’d replace it now that I’ve seen it like that. I also really enjoyed the conversation between your dad and you. It looks like you guys have a good relationship. I’m really looking forward to more interior cleaning content!

[@stephenlane9168]

Lovely seeing you giving TLC to your Rangey Joel. Fantastic car 👌👏

[@tommolewis3105]

Impressive to see how capable to K2 is even on a larger car. My K4 does an excellent job on my hatchback.

[@hlongrigg]

'do u wanna have go with my jet washer? Squeeze it' Joel to child hahah

[@itsjoel]

😂😂😂

[@davidursachi4581]

First time I used my Karcher done the same mistake , but luckily wasn’t for to long till I realised but still stripped the paint on the side skirts , get an eBay foam bottle and use demon foam , mix 700Ml water and 200 ml of demon foam , you’ll get a crazy thick foam .

[@RoyTheBoy12345]

Mate, Snow foam first otherwise you’ll be pushing that grit into your paint. AND change the nozzle, that will ruin your paint!

[@chrissavidge2879]

Just sold one, loved it, miss it. Best riding car I ever owned. Enjoyed the video!

[@chitown1098]

Beautiful color on your RR. One of the best every offered.

[@alangodsman338]

Using the dirt blaster on a car is really not recommended by Karcher, it’s for hard surfaces such as paving slabs. It will strip the paint. A K4 or K5 using the dirt blaster would strip the paint for sure. The concentration dial even using Karchers snow foam will produce a decent foam but try Autofinesse Avalanche. It’s a proper snow foam. I hope you are happy with the results though.

[@michaelpoplett983]

Like a few others have said you used the wrong lance at the start and it can damage your paint work and when cleaning a car you start from the top and work your way down

[@vanlifenomad]

Epic video, nice to see the old RR spotless clean, more videos needed with your dad. happy trails..

[@test21073]

Lesson learnt spend the 8 quid at the local car wash!

[@BMW7series251]

Love these kind of videos Joel. Will use the product in the future. Cheers.

[@Bubbagonsalves]

Kid came over and sprayed the dirt right back on the car🤣🤣.

[@Partlander4x4]

The lines on the Range Rover bonnet tell you where the inside and outside of your front wheel is. Try EZ car care’s Sii Max after a wash. Great stuff.

[@2fast_GTI]

I have the same Karcher pressure washer. It certainly is very good for the price!

[@Jamie-Evo]

Unless lambs are green like Kermit the frog then that's not a lambswool wash mitt, more of a man-made noodle mitt and if no one has already said you shouldn't use the dirt blaster nozzle on paint, it will blast holes through your doors and the interior will then get wet... mmm noodles...

[@paulwatson2712]

I wouldn’t be using that attachment on the body work, normally used for clearing paths!!😩

[@stephenlane9168]

More videos like this Joel. Really enjoyed your looking after your Rangey 👌👏

[@billwild673]

[@nickw1322]

Correct you shouldn’t use the dirt lance however unless your pant is damaged it will not ‘strip it’ or damage it. Definitely don’t use your wash mitt on the pedals/ carpet as you have just picked up all the grit and turned it into a piece of sandpaper 😬. RR looks good though, if you throw fallout remover/ clay/ polish/ wax stages in it’ll look even better!

[@coopers4491]

[@nolanstaveley-haynes2129]

Morning Joel great videos reference the L322, very engaging. For what it's worth I'm a RR L322 nut and regarding your upgrade dilemma, it's just an opinion but you've already upgraded the alloys why don't you carry on change the rear lights and front grill then that will suitaliy bring it upto date visually, you obviously love the car so for me I would stick with it the l322 still looks modern for me. Anyway best of luck with the channel I'll be watching

[@mixdiver]

I really like your content Joel however you need a lesson or two about pressure washers Kartcher build their pressure washers to a budget and they really do not stand up to continuous use for any length of time. I would highly suggest you invest some money in a decent professional washer like a Cleanwell they will last a lifetime where as the K2 will be good for around 100 hours if you are lucky. I know from experience and went through 6 of the yellow beasts before the penny dropped! - I was wasting my money and I invested in a decent machine. I know that the initial outlay is considerably more but parts are replaceable on a Cleanwell unlike a Kartcher which is basically disposable at the k2 level. When your unit breaks (which it will) it will only be fit for landfill, this is a criminal waste. Kartcher offer no spare parts for the K2 internally - if you don’t believe me check it out. If you want the best buy a British made Cleanwell pressure washer (and no I am not sponsored by them) just a very happy customer! Even the German army use them which is odd as Kartcher is a German product and their army think we make a better pressure washer here in the UK.

Never use the dirt blaster on your car! It's too powerful and will strip your paint. Only use a Vario lance.
