Washing A Motor Oil Spill off Adam Safford's Big Rig (emergency)

[@dieselkenny4568]

I have never watched a whole video on detailing this long without skipping! Love it

[@SebastianGiammarinoSwaneck]

Gotta drop everything when Chem-X drops a new vid 🎉

[@joe.olivet]

Welcome back! 🤘🏻🤘🏻😎 The rig is shiny once again.

[@ChemX]

Thanks Joe good to get back on it here

I drive feed trucks and blown numerous hoses over the 20+years I’ve been doing it. It has covered my whole truck and It has never messed paint up. Also when you fill your pump up sprayer, the way you keep from making too much suds is to put water hose end at the bottom of tank and fill up.

Hey Bob I came back up to Mass last week because I had Court, and I had every intention on swinging thru and seeing the shop, but time was limited getting back down here to West Virginia. I finally put a Suttner on my Mobile Detailing / Truck Washing Trailer and it has made a world of difference. The time that I save washing Big Rigs is INSANE!!!! Hey man thanks for the videos and the Inspiration to rock the hell out this truck washing game.. I'll link up the next time I hit Springfield....

[@ChemX]

That’s great to hear yeah swing by anytime I’d love to cross paths with ya!

[@joshraines]

What a beautiful color truck...you can tell this guy really cares about keeping his truck nice. Great work!

[@chuckc6515]

Been waiting a long time for a new vid!! Awesome as always 👍

[@ChemX]

Thanks bud good to hear from ya!

[@urcousinfromboston9052]

U ready for gear jammer?!?!? Cant wait!!! Hope to meet Kona and the team!

[@ChemX]

I’m not ready lol but I will be! Looking forward to hangin out stop by man!

[@iolomottershead9391]

Hi, Love your videos :), Can you do a 2024 video on how you got started, and then a really in depth of how you bought your wash bay, the edits you made and how others should get started. I am a 15 year old that has been doing pressure washing for a year and want to have my own wash bay in the UK when i am older and would love a guide on how to do that. And also, even though others have probably mentioned, a tour of your shelving rack with your leaf blower, products etc.

[@ChemX]

Thanks bud! That’s a really great idea I will definitely do that and good luck on your future goals!

Most awesome video, sure have missed your uploads… Would love to talk about a small setup for my new 5th wheel.

[@ChemX]

Thank you and yeah give us a shout anytime!

[@jessemerriam9732]

Nice job bob glad your back

[@ChemX]

Thank you glad to be back on it I’ll be focusing on videos primarily moving forward, this one was filmed in November I’ve been struggling to keep up with the workload at my place

[@lovmyrx7841]

I would love to open a shop like yours in Texas and promote your product. From an automotive detail perspective (non big rig type) I can’t get enough of these videos. Most of our soaps and degreaser for our oil field company are caustic, they dull out paint and wheels like no other!

[@ChemX]

I bet you would do really well man, my goal with all my soaps is to get the job done with as little negative effects as possible, so this degreaser hits hard without dulling paint or polished aluminum

[@miketowtruck13]

Poor Kenworth i hope bubba realizes shes gonna bleed oil for sometime cause that stuff gets EVERYWHERE at highway speed especially if you didnt notice the leak for as long as bubba did.

[@ChemX]

It did yeah I think we could have spent the whole day getting even more off, at least the frame is nice and protected from all that oil lol

[@MrMan-ol4ic]

Yessssss, new video!

[@scottycollins1829]

Nice FOOTAGE

[@David-yc9us]

Looks fire

[@yankeedoodle7693]

Hydraulic oil typically will not damage paint- staining may occur if left over time. Brake fluid however will. NICE VID BTW

[@ChemX]

That’s good to know thank you, customers have it come up frequently and are usually pretty concerned to handle it quick so I wasn’t sure what the long term was there

[@roy1531]

I think he's got an inframe in his very near future. He shouldn't have that much pressure in his crank case. I am beyond impressed with this product!

[@ChemX]

Thank you yeah Heavy Duty really gets the work done for me

[@garrettmckenzie9178]

Yeah came to the comments to say this, could also be compressor or even turbo

[@tucksmith8300]

Looks awesome

[@Cali_fishin]

Old video? The trees in the back look like it's fall again. But good to see u back on the tube

[@ChemX]

Thanks yeah I shot this back in November lol, ran outta time to edit back then but I kept filming, got tons of stuff to chop up and I’m training one of my guys to edit along with me so we will be pumping them out now

[@meanf1502]

When is the single stage no touch coming out

[@robertthiele1291]

He needs a PDI oil cap locks on

[@ChemX]

That’s a good idea I’ll have to tell him hopefully he’ll be at the Gearjammer show next month

[@MarianA-vu8tb]

brake fluid is very corrosive, if you get brake fluid on paint it is advised to wash it off right away so will not damage the paint, don't know about transm. fluid if it's corrosive or not but I'm inclined to think it's not.

[@ChemX]

Yeah I believe your right about that, in my research since it looks like hydraulic fluid could stain if not handled but may take some time to become a problem

[@colinsalisbury9055]

@Chem-X Any timeline on when I can pickup Awesome Sauce 2.0? Looks to be even better.

[@ChemX]

I’m still tweaking it a bit, I don’t think it breaks the surface tension on the water as well as the current one just yet

[@brandonw9784]

A double head for those Stars and Stripes on the pressure washer wond would be awesome so you don’t gotta take one off and put one on.

[@radonoah8855]

Interested in that one step wash as well as those powdered concentrate of Stars and Stripes you posted a while ago. Really want to try your stuff but shipping gets expensive

[@ChemX]

Are you up in Canada?

What kind of foamer was the second one you used

[@ChemX]

That one was one of my chrome cannons, I’m out of stock on them right now just waiting for the shipping container to get here from china on the next round

[@Wyattanderson12]

@@ChemX ok you said in the video it was cheaper than the garden hose one

[@ChemX]

Yeah I sell the chrome cannons for about $20

[@Wyattanderson12]

@@ChemX ok thanks

[@benjocaz45]

How much water do you think you use when you do a full stars+stripes wash? I’d love to see you guys make or at least prototype a 12/24v DC pressure washer that you could run off a truck, or maybe even off a hydraulic PTO wet kit. So long as you have a garden hose you could wash your truck right at the dock. Hell if you had an RV you could wash the truck while boondocking and not need to invert to AC power.

[@ChemX]

I have a 3.5 gallon per minute power washer, and I’d say a car takes me 5 minutes, a bobtail big rig takes me about 15, and a full size RV maybe 20-25. So you can take the gpm of your machine and multiple it by those minutes and see your water usage.

[@thewhitedemon0761]

I just gotta say man your bottom to top washing method also works for washing roofs and getting them cleaned off of course I’m talking about McDonalds and the get clean using your washing method

[@ChemX]

Interesting I wonder what the advantage of rinsing like that is in your industry let me know

[@thewhitedemon0761]

@@ChemX it actually gets dirt off the roof and it works so well I almost get color blind

[@ChemX]

lol nice

[@95dodgev10]

I've used snake oil before and had great results. After running out i got some comparable stuff from chemical guys only cause it was in stock at lowes. Their stuff works but snake oil works better.

[@ChemX]

That’s good to hear man thank you!

Where are you guys located?

Damn he must really trust a shipper to drop that beautiful trailer for a weekend load up. I have a trailer 10% the quality and I hate dropping at any shipper.

[@ChemX]

Yeah sucks to see staining pop up like that especially right after a good polish

[@jamesjournell867]

& didn't u ask him to de- tach the trailer 🤔

[@ChemX]

You mean to clean under the trailer by the fifth wheel?

What's your camera setup?

[@ChemX]

I use two Sony fx3’s, one’s got 12-24mm glass and the other 24-70mm. I set them both to s-log 3 cine ei for color grading and lock the base iso to 12800 for the most flexibly on exposure in post.

[@r.ccustomtruckingsydneyaus4632]

Yes hydraulic fluid will eat you paint if left on too long . That's why its a hurry hurry job when it comes to hydraulic oils

[@ChemX]

That’s what I thought yeah, this was just motor oil fortunately

[@Retail590]

It would be wrong to say hydraulic oil doesn’t ruin paint
