Deep Cleaning The Dirtiest Car Ever! Toyota FJ Cruiser Car Detailing Restoration

[@StaufferGarage]

Happy Saturday!!! Comment below the highest mileage car you've ever owned! Also, sub to my other channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYGuqnx9edqbrtE

I detailed my Aunt's 2004 Toyota Sienna CE, it had 212,000 miles, apart from that, my mom's 2011 Toyota Sienna had 171k miles before we traded it in. My car is the highest mileage at my house with 91k miles

I love Toyota FJ’s. They are amazing. I had an 2007 FJ That I took in some amazingly deep water and mud. I drove it 3 hours with water up to 2” above the drive window bottom seal with a blown out right rear tire. Had no idea the tire was blown out until we got back on dry ground. Also pulled an 2005 Dodge 2500 4x4 buried to the frame in the same mud hole. With my spare on. Just can’t beat the FJ! My opinion!

[@duncangregho1986]

I tought mine was really dirty but after watching this , my fj project is going to be a piece a cake for cleaning😬😅👍🏽

[@MysticShot]

The upside to plastic is that its easy to clean. Downside, if it's scratched up, it doesn't look good

[@igeekone]

That can be fixed, not entirely but can look better. Heat from a propane torch or heat gun can restore most of the original look. Then a UV protective coating, like 303, can be applied. It will look almost like new again.

@Stauffer Garage I ran my brother in law’s detail shop in Daytona years ago, and your channel brings back memories. This is such a relaxing channel to watch. One of the more satisfying jobs I’ve ever had.

[@Warpshift]

Back in my youth, I had a Mazda B2000 that I inherited from my Dad. By the time we got rid of it, it had over 800,000mi. This was figured out as the truck's odometer only went to 99,999 then would roll over. We had the truck the better part of about 20yrs. We replaced the top end at least 3x that I can recall and at least 5-6 clutch swaps. It was a great truck and my Dad drove it all over the country when we would do roadtrips.

[@theultimategirl26]

Bought my husband a 92 Mazda B2200 for $700. Has easily over 300,000 miles on it, but runs like a top. We're never gonna let it go.

[@nomadic_hurd]

I have an FJ as well with 221k on the clock. This video inspires me to keep mine to at least 300k!

[@benr9172]

Toyota engines (and Honda at that) are known to last an incredibly long time with basic maintenance using top shelf fluids and filters. As a shade tree mechanic, I've worked on at least 50 Toyotas of varying models and have never done major engine repairs even on 400k mile vehicles. At that point, you'll be doing oil seals and gaskets. Other than that, you can run most Toyotas until they rust away (also not common).

If you have a heat gun, you can use it on the kick panels and trunk liners. Does a great job of blending in nicks and scratches. Used to do this in the bodyshop. Just be careful not to overheat the panel. Also restores the shine. Won't work if you have big gouges though!

A lot of work has been done. There are no words. And the car's mileage is impressive. A little tip: rough scratches on plastic can be smoothed out with open fire. For example a lighter or gas burner. BUT ... You have to be very careful, short-term exposure and a fire extinguisher at hand.

Honestly man the Kranzle custom install from obsessed garage is the best pressure washer for cleaning vehicles. It makes everything so much easier. Plus it has m22 female connectors so the MTM PF22 foam cannon (which you can order that on obsessed garage as well) connects right to it and puts out great foam. It’s pricey but definitely well worth it. Matt Morman has done so much research behind these and I’m never going back to another pressure washer.

[@tomtanks]

You should try the Kranzle Pressure Washer, Obsessed Garage has a review on it! It’s more expensive but you get a higher GPM. If not, and you want to go on the cheaper side, try a Ryobi!

[@nbtholl1]

The Karcher is a better budget pressure washer. Matt has it on his website as well.
