Shine Juice Fail! Do Not Use in the Desert!

[@Robrt32]

Thank you. No one else would answer my question about the dust because they wanted to continue to get free stuff from the company’s. Thank you for being honest

[@LowBuckGarage]

You're welcome!

[@hgj2019]

@@LowBuckGaragedid you try washing with mineral spirits? Seems like that might clean the linseed oil off.

[@Dave-ty2qp]

You are still the undisputed King of Understatement. Love your type of humor. I also love the projects you take on. My father in law and I used to do fun projects like these, and we had a blast frankensteining up a fun vehicle to tool around the ranch in. I sute miss those days, and I sure miss him.

[@LowBuckGarage]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@hgj2019]

You are quickly becoming one of my favorite channels. I look forward to each new post. I realize this was posted two years ago, but I’m just catching up. Two suggestions: 1) try wiping the linseed oil off with mineral spirits. If that doesn’t work, try denatured alcohol. Lacquer thinner might attack the base paint, so I’d avoid it or any other “hot” solvent. 2) Try waterless hand cleaner (“go-Jo”). It can even be used to clean off the oxidized, chalky paint. Use the type that does NOT have abrasive in it. The abrasive type might be too aggressive. Best thing is that the lanolin in it leaves your hands nice and soft. 😁 Hope the projects are coming along well.

[@lloydprunier4415]

I saw Derek using the shine oil some time ago and thought I would try it on my old garden tractor. I never got around to doing it and then I saw you putting on the Jeep P/U and it looked great. Then I see this video and I won't be trying it on anything now. It would probably help with stopping some rust, but the dust gets real bad here sometimes. Thanks for the update and keep on having fun I'll be watching.

Thanks, glad you like it!

[@journeymancellist9247]

I really enjoy these, in part because you seem to have a genuine personality. Not arrogant or condescending. I hope your jeep will find a good home? Not gonna just part it?

[@MikeSamuelsII-ve8gp]

I use my own mix of "shine juice" for vintage bikes here in Georgia and I've found that if I need to keep anything I've coated to have a hard and glossy sheen that repels dust I use 3-4 coats and let it cure in the garage for a couple weeks.

[@kumoyuki]

that's kind of what I would expect from linseed oil.

[@SluSharkND]

The dust forms a protective patina that acts as a barrier to protect against things like gravels and boulders, so I think you did it right in the first place...

[@spamanator666]

I wondered too, after watching VGG do it, I had always thought of doing the same to my '77 J10 with similar patina but knew it might just make a mess. Our area has heavy winds that blow fine grey glacial dust (pretty similar to the desert dust) around for hundreds of km!

[@LowBuckGarage]

Glad I got to share results before you tried it! I was pretty happy with the way the scouring pad cleaned up the surface, though. If I had stopped there and did not apply the juice it probably would have worked out fine.

[@kennethsonier1766]

That's a great old Jeep, and I watched it come up from a frame and a pile of parts. Great job 👍☮️

[@LowBuckGarage]

I really appreciate that, thanks! 👍

[@jakestabile7027]

Another episode full of great tips. I have gained a renewed appreciation for Jeep vehichles here;but I especially like the gear in Granpa's backyard ! Greetings from N.H.

[@JohnBrown-cz7ww]

Hay all, Derek recently came out with his own developed and redesigned shine juice from some manufacture and its way improved, check it out in one of his new video's. It dries fully with no stickiness. But hey, if you have no other option and you need it rite now it will fill the bill. I love watching this guy, he knows every hack and trick to get the job done. I always learn something.

[@KM-je5xt]

Thank you so much showing every one haw to wash and scrub the mud off the car with a green brillo pad! just finish a car that did that. Stingray 2020 he did all of the car this way. I made $6000.00 fixing keep the good work and videos this keep food on the Tabell for my kids LOL

[@Mouthy_Trucker]

Well let’s hope your kids finish the third grade so they learn how to spell and form proper sentences

[@AndrewBrowner]

announcing to everyone you dont know the difference in paint on a 70s J10 and a 2020 corvette seems like it might be pretty detrimental to your vehicle painting business... i might scrub this comment from the internet before any local customers come across it

No bolts on the leaf springs... Isn't that what is known as 'quick release suspension'..? For when you need to do super quick pitstops at the race track. That's a feature, right there!

[@VanWinger]

I have heard that modern 'boiled' linseed oil is chemically different than traditionally boiled linseed oil and doesn't harden fully or in the same span of time. This appears to be a side effect of this difference.

[@dustcommander100]

I'm thinking the Shine Juice is probably best used back East - but maybe here it would collect leaves. It does look slick, but the linseed oil kinda raised a red flag for me - that was my dad's cure for everything, including rust - I remember it being sticky. I'll bet it does wonders (temporarily) for the dreaded white clearcoat that used to be so prevalent. Maybe the Shine Juice is a secret formula used by used car lots that has final gone public.

[@Codethe_Road]

This is such a beautiful truck, amazing work bringing it back from the dead.

[@3DThrills]

Looks like a feller led a feller wrong?

[@ebifurai415]

The VGG brand shine juice isn't sticky. If you did a diy with boiled linseed oil that's probably why you have dirt stuck to your truck.

[@flaircraft]

That shine juice may work better with some hardener added. Since it's based on BLO, Japan Drier might be a good choice.

[@cetate93]

I've never liked any kind of oily shines, especially tire shine. Used to detail for a Chevrolet dealership and the cadillac owners LOVED their tire shine. They come back and the sidewalls are brown and i have to scrub them and shine all over again.

[@DiveJersey]

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

Good morning everyone! This channel is a well kept secret. Always great to see you all in the comments. Have a super weekend!

[@LowBuckGarage]

Thanks, you too!

[@gb123-ej8wh]

Could always lightly sand that off and hit it with some clear coat. Once it dries it’s at least not sticky. Problem with Boiled linseed oil is how long it takes to harden. Yeah dry to the touch in 12 hours or whatever but still tacky for weeks. Great for wood stocks though if you’ll keep them inside until they’re cured.

[@deepbludude4697]

I like that rig! even the jacked up paint, fuel tank and the hookey spedo rig, I bought a couple of those made in China GPS spedos on sale at amazon for 18 bucks (couple years ago) they all work still! I cant figure out how to set em up though as far as clocking milage for my fuel gages that dont work...

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

All this truck washing is getting out of hand. It is tarnishing an otherwise perfect reputation. KZbin, let this channel shine!

*_why am I having so much fun watching you struggle and having to MacGyver so many parts... ENTERTAINING CONTENT, that's why_*

[@AvaPxiaO]

I think for desert use you substitute linseed oil with sunflower or soy oil, if it doesn't work soap will take it off, or just use filtered motor oil

[@ShelbyBell]

For a more permanent solution, check out Poppy’s Patina. While it can be sprayed, it’s made to be wiped on as a clear coat. Works well!

[@LowBuckGarage]

Thanks for the tip, I'll check that out!

[@ronjones1077]

Wax and grease remover is what is needed to remove all of that oily concoction. Painters use it with two rags, one on rash had so you wipe the wet rag with the remover solvent, and dry with the other. On really bad contamination it may need more than one application. If the contamination is not removed you will get fish eyes in your new paint and also poor adhesion. Never use oily products on paint. The dirt that sticks becomes sand paper and will remove a finish

[@arizonarider6998]

You need to get some front blinker turn signals on that thing before going on the road again. Or did you sell it already?

[@larryalexander4833]

Looks like you need some SHINE AWAY 2000 lolol . Hay I spotted the older tan Mercedes in the background. Always kinda liked that body style. Any future plans for it?

Yes, that project's actually already underway. I dropped a 302 in it, and I'm working on sorting out fitment problems. Its a tight squeeze!

Hmm, so I'm not in the desert, I'm in the southeast but in the spring we get a coating of pollen/yellow dust for about a month.. It's going to stick anyway but I wonder how much worse It will be with the shine juice

[@koenvangeleuken6544]

about them mud wasps, did you check the diff/transfer case/gear box vents? can cause trouble when blocked.

[@jayjenkins4721]

So, what should happen now is you sell me that truck and I'll do the shine juice test in Indiana where we don't have sand storms...lol. One thing I've found that's great for washing grime is Mr Clean Magic Erasers. We use them to get 30mm gun soot, hydraulic fluid, and grease off of our A-10s when we wash them.

[@gtnaylor5870]

One more wash with Dawn dish washing liquid. That'll take your oil off. Or most of it. Or use a degreaser first.

[@aubreylionswings8889]

I laughed all the way through this episode. I don’t know why.

[@peter-hr1gl]

You should have simply clear-coated your vehicle since it has a neat weathered patina. Wonder why the contents of the shine juice mixture do not go well with driven sand?

[@WadeKoschney-t4p]

I wondered how the juice was gonna work with all those weather condition! It looked good while it lasted just not desert approved!

Sounds like u may need a set of rod bearings. Common problem in the 300 but my dad put 70000 miles on his with no oil changes and #1 hammering like a caveman. So it will probably be fine

[@LowBuckGarage]

I'm wondering about the knocking, it actually seems to be coming from the transmission. It usually goes away when I push in the clutch. But it keeps running, so I'm just going to ignore it for now...
