I use Woolite to wash my microfiber towels. It was also recommended for polypropylene and Gortex cold weather gear issue by the military. The main reason to use Woolite was it didn't clog the fabric pores. Excellent job on the video.

PPE rule I learnt from engineering, if you won’t drink or eat the product - wear appropriate gloves. If you’re not using the product as your eye drop - wear protective googles. If you won’t listen to the machine as music in full volume - wear ear protection. If you won’t use the product as perfume - wear a suitable mask.

Pan, Another excellent informative video. One tip to convey is when using a power washer ALWAYS test the sprayer away from the vehicle when changing tips. This will ensure that if the attachment is not securely locked in place and you apply the trigger the attachment will go away from the vehicle preventing any damage from occurring. Joyeux Noel

[@autodidact537]

@@PanTheOrganizer My tip for washing a vehicle is to use the 'two bucket' method. Fill one bucket with a cleaning solution and the second one with just straight water and nothing else. Saturate your cleaning cloth with the soap solution from the first bucket and apply it to the vehicle, then when it's dirty rinse it in the second bucket that contains only water and squeeze out the cleaning solution that has become saturated with dirt and grime from the vehicle. Then dunk the cleaning cloth back into the bucket with the cleaning solution and continue. With this 'two bucket' method the cleaning solution doesn't get fouled with dirt as much as it would if you only used one bucket. This method is especially good for any very dirty cleaning job, not just for washing vehicles.

Just want to point out that dust-masks won’t really protect you against fumes (which are vapor molecules). Vapor goes right through dust masks, which are meant for filtering particulate matter. If you’re dealing with nasty vapors, a cartridge respirator for chemical-filtration, and/or good ventilation exhaust fans for the area are your best bets. Love your videos!

I've learned SO much from your videos that I apply them to my new vehicle purchase. Everything I've done in the past was totally wrong, but I've changed my car detailing ways since subscribing to your channel. I've invested in alot of products suggested by you...foam cannon, micro fiber towels, detail sprays and more. I literally used a foam cannon for the first time today using the Turtle was wash and it was amazing. Thank you for putting out these videos because I can assure you that those that listen, learn alot...as I have. My neighbors actually were in awe on how my car looked today using the products that YOU suggest. I'd love to share a photo of my car if you'd provide me with a way to do that.

@@roadfert Here's a suggestion. I do what you do; however I only use a wash bucket to store my wash mitt's prior to me using them. I have I think 8 mitt's that I pull out of the bucket one at a time and wash one section of the car say the hood, then set that mitt aside and grab another to wash another section. That way you're never dealing with dirt in the bucket.

Your videos and videos of others brought up good memories when I was regularly washing my vehicle, about 15 years ago. Prices were different, products too. When I clicked on the links of the products you recommend, it is easy to get lost in abundance of them and by prices. I let car dealer wash the car after service, however a couple of years ago I stopped going to them and do maintenance myself. It means I haven't washed my car for a long time. I want to start washing my car again however I live in the apartment. I will get necessary stuff from your recommended list and I also recently received a portable pressure washer.

Air drying the porche was magical and amazing to watch love a ceramic coating for that reason

[@iddlesimages]

Great video thanks Pan. My top tip to add to yours is use an in-line water filter when rinsing the car, especially in a hard-water area, then there is no need to touch the car's paint after washing it. If I have the time, I then use a blower to blast-out any trapped water which would otherwise drip for hours or stay trapped in recesses and channels. The filter I have been using for many years can be re-filled (by me) with new resin beads, usually once a year, and looks a bit like a large fire extinguisher.

Was unaware though of the drying aid and also of the various types of microfibre cloths and towels for specific tasks. Will also pay more attention to tyre degreasing. Will soon start regularly using power washer and foam cannon (seems like fun to use) with Meguiars gold class shampoo. Thanks for the tips.

[@theg35project50]

I detailed at a car wash for 2 years and did probably 100 + ceramic coatings. Bottle always says do not get on skin or inhale fumes yet they do not provide gloves or masks 🙉🙉🙉

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yeah very few brands provide gloves (Gtechniq has some in their kits normally which is good) and even less brands provide masks. I guess that would drive the costs of the kits and so they try to keep product cost lower...

[@HowtoRestoreHeadlights]

This is specifically for those who are detailing for a customer/client. Clean wheels and shine tires first. I’ve found that doing MOBILE detailing the customer will often times come out after I’ve been cleaning for about 45mins to an hour and ask “how’s it going”. Doing wheels/tires first gives them something to see for progress/instant gratification. Even if ya have to to a slight wipe down at the end again, it’s still worth the added feeling boost it gives the customer.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Good tip for mobile detailers Andrew!

A tip I use when drying my daily driver is I use a drying aid and then I take my car for a quick spin around the neighborhood and take it back home and use a waffle weave drying towel. By the time I drive it around the block most of the water just sheets off. Works great every time!💦✨

[@SuperAnonymities]

Hey Pan, great video. One question, assume I have partial PPF installed and whole car ceramic coated, how frequent should I do a paint decontamination, like iron removal etc? I'm from a country without 4 seasons. Basically it's just sunny days or rainy days.

[@tobiasdanielsen6110]

Every 6 months, about every 4th month if you drive on highways a lot.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

That's my recommendation too. And to that I would add "as needed depending on your level or iron contamination. If you have a car with high performance brakes and steel rotors (like BMW, Audi, Mercedes) that generate tons of brake dust, perhaps once very 2 months is good".

[@thirdgearboogie2210]

Living in the Midwest salt belt, AKA Rust Belt. It is pretty much impossible for most people to avoid going through automated washes in the winter months. I do agree with staying away from any type of brush wash though.

[@marvinisrael1671]

I have to disagree with you concerning always using a PH neutral soap. When a car is driven in the rain it picks up chemicals from the roadway, and these will not be washed off with PH neutral soap. It is then that I use Purple Power to wash the car. Yes, I understand that this will strip off whatever synthetic "wax" I might have used like Turtle Wax, but it is easy enough to recoat the vehicle. For normal washing for a car that has not been driven on the highway when it is raining, I use a PH neutral soap.

[@JOSEPHwHAN]

When it comes to cars that are protected via ceramic/graphene coated, the PH neutral soaps are (in my opinion) more than enough. In all other car paint protectants, I'd agree with you.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Alkaline shampoos are good once in a while, especially during winter months, as they can help remove road grime, road salts, and buildup of dirt a bit better, but I still wouldn't recommend using something like Purple Power for every single maintenance wash as that's too harsh and will dull the finish if used too often. For people who wash their cars like me twice weekly, all you need is a good pH neutral shampoo. Ceramic coated cars make wonders of keeping cars cleaner for longer.

[@lisakaye75]

I am fairly new to your channel and busy watching as many videos as I can. I came across this one dated 12/2021. Here is my tip. I had the hardest time removing water stains from my non tinted car windows. I used MDR (mineral deposit remover). The MDR did a good job at removing most of the stains but you could still see their outline. I then used a moist foam pad with a little Bar Keepers Friend and scrubbed the surface. I was careful not to get any BKF on any car surfaces except the glass. Boom. The stains were gone. I was left with windows that looked new. I don't know if it would work on tinted windows and I won't try it unless I know it is safe. I did have to reapply BKF a couple of times to completely remove the stains but they did come off.

[@kawh8719]

Damn! that's a great tip! I wouldn't use BFK on the tint side, but the glass side will handle it fine. I have an old windshield and I couldn't get it as clean as I wanted till I used #0000 fine Steel wool w/ an acid based cleaner. I never thought of using BFK for that application though!.

Love your videos Pan. I'm new to car detailing and have always enjoyed washing my cars (the prep starts a few days before with checking the weather and letting my wife/kids know ! - takes a few hours to vacuum and wash - very soothing) Anyway, my top-tip is I start with cleaning the windows and windscreen (front and rear) once I have the shampoo on the car. The windows are key as I don't want any little bits of dust/dirt from the top of the body onto the windows. I then rinse my mitt and clean the roof and work my way down to the bonnet and door panels. I always clean my wheels first then apply shampoo :-) Great tip also is to use separate mitts for upper and lower body. Thanks Pan and love all the comments :-)

(this tip also ties in with using the minimum product required)....also one should pay attention to the front and the back of cars as they are the dirtiest parts of the bodywork - the front from incoming pollutants and the back from the turbulence of passing air.....finally i also saw a video where magic eraser/scour pad was used on external glass surfaces to remove bug sap and water spotting

[@gmans7859]

When washing with the two bucket method, my son and I have gotten into the habit of wringing out the wash mitt twice. You wash a panel, wring the mitt before the clean water (rinse) bucket then again after before you scoop up more soap from the wash bucket. Hope that makes sense.

[@genogeno6643]

Thank you for the informative tips. You mentioned not to use dish soap as it can harm a clear coat and strip any previously applied paint protection. What would you suggest to safely remove any previously applied paint protection if I wanted to prepare for the application of Graphene Ceramic Coating

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Stripping shampoos alone aren’t enough to ensure 100% removal of previous protections. Only machine polishing can do that. What stripping shampoos do is start the breaking down process of older waxes and sealants. I like stripping shampoos like McKee’s 37 Coating Prep Shampoo and Adam’s Strip Wash.
