Tips coming from an experienced detailer... You can pressure wash your engine bay if everything in there is genuine fitting. If there are lots of after market modifications then you will have to gauge how good is the insulation on after market stuff. Also I will not keep the engine running, it can potentionaly damage electronic stuff such as coils and Ecu if moisture manages to get in. If you are washing at home leave the hood open and avoid starting for next hour allowing it to dry. You can also try blow drying afterwards. Just remember to keep the nozel 2-3 feet away while using a pressure washer. A standard 110 bar pressure washer is safe to use on most automotive surfaces from 1 feet distance. Rinse your engine/underbody well before applying degreaser, do not use tyre shinner on a dirty tyre it would make it look ugly later on. Purchase water based tyre shinners, oil based ones are greasy and will attract lots of dust. Never use brush on your car/truck.. if you know what you are doing you should not need to do so! Use 2 soapy washmitts instead. I would recommend a strong citrus based shampoo for wash, moderately strong degreaser to get rid of mud, iron x for decontamination and on such a large vehicle I would suggest a spray-on wax and wipe, or spray on paint sealant.

Grit guards for buckets is another must. I personally would forgo the 2 bucket method which is standard for most detailing jobs and go for a 4 bucket or 5 bucket method. 1 for top half of car 1 for bottom half of car 1 for wheels 1 for other surfaces 1 for rinsing Over the top for regular cars, but with 4x4s which are being used off road, would need another set of rules to go by

good tips Ronny - especially the flushing out of the frame rails so salt doesn't eat out the frame from the inside. One comment about the engine bay - I find engine degreaser to be too harsh and may strip lettering/printing, and maybe even the protectant off of the aluminum parts. I find regular sudsy car wash soap or dish soap to work well (assuming your engine bay isn't covered in grease/oil). Start with a cool engine and generously splash soapy water in the engine bay. Use a sponge and soft brush to break the dust and mud loose and rinse with cool water. Repeat if needed. Then start the engine and let it run for 30 minutes or more to drive the water out of all the nooks and crannies (maybe go for a drive). Once the engine bay is dry (or mostly dry) I generously spray armorall over everything in the engine bay which helps make the next wash go faster and easier (helps prevent dirt and dust from sticking).

Hey Ronny, I will give you a great tip since you're traveling always with your 4x4. Try spraying your tire (tyre) with "303 Aerospace protectant" or any external or internal rubber also your wind shield wiper, rubber hose, fan belt etc. It will extend the life of your tire to almost double. It's proven and had been tested by many including in the States and myself. Good luck mate!

I can't stress this enough with tip 7, do NOT spray degreaser in the engine bay if the motor is remotely warm. I used the exact same supercheap degreaser in this video to remove some oil from a leaky tappet cover gasket when the spray ignited setting fire to the engine bay. Luckily I was able to put out the fire with a bucket of water near by but not after melting plastic wires for the CAS which I had to repair. I had used degreaser near hot exhaust manifolds previously without any issues, but after my incident I have been way more cautious.

Yep, I run a detailing business and have never cleaned an engine/bay with it hot and running as my mechanic said the sudden change in temp and crack and damage sensors. I usually spray Wd40 on the exposed electrics first. I've washed engines with a pressure washer for years without issues, just don't have a very aggressive tip on the wand and don't hold the tip too close, basically common sense. I find a pressure washer is more efficient than a garden hose as it cleans better, without flooding the whole engine bay with water. If it's just dirt/mud you can use CT18 'truck wash' in a garden sprayer, then pressure wash and blow out water after. '

Great video 👌 Some other tricks to prevent corrosion: After washing car let it dry thoroughly...then, using a paint gun w/compressor spray a light coat of used engine oil underneath. With dry weather it'll form a protective layer that does wonders. Another trick is to remove plugs in sills and other places, blow air to remove debris and once every 2 years spray used engine oil inside...also inside chassis, roof pillars, inside doors (after removing door panels)...usually rust starts inside out from condensation. It's a common technique used in tropical humid areas of Ecuador and that's how I have kept my 30yr old Daihatsu Rocky rustproof.

Tip # 11 - Salt Removal …. When removing ocean water or ocean sand (w/ salt in it),… or salt on the road (when snowing). When spraying underneath at the DIY car wash,.. LEAVE the soap on the underneath portions. Your never going to get it all fully out of the places like the frame rails & crevices, and leaving the soap on helps prevent rust from whatever you miss flushing. Tip # 12 - Rubber, fiberglass etc,.. never use those wheel dressings etc,.. always use 303 spray. Those other spray take the moisture out as it dries. Only 303 and 100% pure silicone really work. 303 is expensive enough ( but worth it ), while 100% silicone is 🥜 nutty expensive. Cheers.

Regarding cleaning up after salt water there is a product called 'saltaway' which I use on the jetski, also a detergent based cleaner ( used on mine and farm machinery ) that you spray on and hose off.The result in using these products every time the ski is used ( I know its not an off roader ) is the engine looks like brand new, and the use of Inox is definitely a no no, use Lanox instead. I dont hose down a jet ski engine until I can place my hand on the head. So not sure about running the engine while washing. It just shows that not all advice from Ronny is right, but I like his work .

Whilst I agree with 99.99 % of what you say, I usually loosen the wheel nut, jack the vehicle up and remove all four wheels. Using my high pressure Karcher I then spray everything with a HEAVY DUTY cleaner which dissolve red mud or any other types of mud. I remove the pads and brake drums and spray with the heavy duty cleaner which consists of Sodium Hydroxide and is mainly used for commercial use. Once the underneath has been sprayed all over, and under the engine bay and front suspension plus wheel arches, I use the Karcher at 2000Lbs pressure and just watch the mud and gunk fall off. The gearbox comes up looking as if it has just been fitted by the factory. The front calipers are cleaned and the mud falls off . The brake drums and shoes get soaked in the heavy duty cleaner and then pressure washed. This whole and entire process takes about an hour to do, and once everything is 100 % clean and no signs of mud anywhere, the wheels are replaced and the vehicle lowered back to the ground. It is on axle stands for the record The mining companies use this to de-grease their heavy duty underground vehicles. Have been using this product for over 20 years and no signs of corrosion under the vehicle at all. Wheel arches all look as if they have never ever seen any off road mud. Its getting expensive to buy, hence the reason I try not to get mud under/on the vehicle. Just dont spray it on alloy rims , stainless steel or on any paintwork unless it white. Spraying on the aforementioned can do permanent damage to metallic paint and stainless steel.

Another top tip if you've flooded your carpet, wash your carpets then use their vacuums to suck the soapy water out , they love it . Car lovers in qld come up n told me to stop using degreaser as it contaminated there recycled water , so another good tip is to apply the degreaser around the corner then drive in lol

YEAH NAH MATE Errr.... anything is going to contaminate their recycled water isn't it? Whatever filtering they're using it won't get oil out, and there's already also gonna be some detergents in there.

Just a heads up, GETSOME lube also works just as good as INOX. (Though, its mainly found in the U.S.A)

Pump up garden sprayer, filled with baby oil before a weekend of mud. Most of the mud on vertical surfaces will fall off.

I’ve always used high pressure but with due diligence. Never left it running either. I more so use the soap and brush to agitate the dirt not the pressure washer. I only like to use it because it saves water and speeds up rinsing.

+THE JONESY you can import the engines or if you want an older one you can import the entire car for pretty cheap but for the engine it really depends the state you live in.

THE JONESY wish we had the manual transmission options in trucks here. and straight axles. trucks in America have gotten so car with a box. only good trucks left are the superduty and heavier rams.

hi Ronny. just bought a new dmax with the intent of getting into some beach driving. your video is the best i've seen so far for post cleaning tips. but wondering if you rust proof your vehicle first and in your opinion which method is best?

So Ive found that washing the mud off at the car wash just leaves a ton of mud in the drain, sometimes to the point that it clogs the drain and your local car wash is left with a flooded bay. A water hose actually does a way better job of getting the initial bulk of mud off AND youre not having to spend $10 extra dollars at the local wash buying the extra time it takes having to move all around the vehicle to get within 10" of every muddy spot. The water volume a hose can spray 10ft is WAY more than a pressure washer. A pressure washer is only effective within about a foot when it comes to dislodging mud. I say park in the garden to do the initial rinse so all that dirt ends up somewhere useful. 😂

Hey Mr. Ronny, I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for posting them. I live in the US, and I recently bought a 1989 Toyota pickup 4x4 dlx single cab 2.3l gas pickup truck. I am just getting into four-wheeling now and I was wondering, for mild off-road outings, what gear and equipment should I save up and get for my truck? It already has undercarriage skid plates and 31in all terrain tires on it. Thanks!

The Teflon spray is definitely a helpful tool but you should probably mention to not spray it on your brakes. Nice video.
