You've Been Eating Pomegranate Wrong All Your Life
• You've Been Eating Pom...

[@Finesse460]

Oil and oil based cleaners are extremely bad for plastic, vinyl, and especially leather dashes. As an experienced auto detailer, I was taught to use water based cleaners. The reason being because the UVA and UVB rays from the sun will fry your dash like an egg and eventually burn it, causing cracks and even shrinkage, which promotes cracking. Also, most new dashes are not lustrous, but rather matte in appearance; Leather is also matte in appearance when new.

[@ShivaTantrika]

I do think you are right.. olive oil doesn´t have UV protection and damage may occur in the long run.

[@Finesse460]

That's right! Shiva Tantrika

[@T3hRealMcCoy]

This man knows whats up.

[@Finesse460]

Haha thanks man! T3hRealMcCoy​

[@pitsonline]

Kenji if we need to go water based we should use KY gel

[@lalem91]

Don't forget to change your olive oil every 3000 miles

[@rmrider9697]

and don't forget to change your blinker fluid also👍

[@danielfl.9347]

+lalem91 3000 miles?? Every 9000 miles is good enough, but 6000 miles if you are driving a lot in the city with cheap oil.

[@inout9]

Hahahaa

[@AmpolyB]

leoleo. Funny!

[@bombakid8666]

KX Rider969 and make sure to change your muffler bearings too

[@CTrane88]

If you want really good results, let your dashboard marinate overnight.

[@DSpeir-pi6tm]

LOL thanks for the tip XD

[@pipocifra7751]

And it would really taste great too! Hahaha!

[@SinghTheMaster]

and if still doesn't look shine put one more bottle on it and let it marinate for couple more days. hahaa

[@ATL.Resa95]

Joe L LMBOOOOOOOOOOO HILARIOUS

[@oro5z]

Joe L, that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard! For best results add a dash of lemon juice and ONLY marinate for 4 hours. If you lay a slice of pizza on the dahboard, by late evening you'll enjoy "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" (make sure your girlfirend is there with you).

[@HunterShows]

Now I realize I've been cooking wrong. But I learned something: Armor-all is great on salads and spaghetti.

[@hotspur666]

You can also pour vodka and naphta in your intake and watch your hood fly all the way tp your neighbor's garden!

[@TheCousinDan]

+glumberty1 Yeah, I think I'll stick with Armorall...You know, the product DESIGNED for this

[@richardf911]

+Daniel Engling Armorall has it's own problems. Don't do it. Armorall is designed to make the company money by requiring you to reapply it constantly.

[@TheCousinDan]

Ehh, I've looked the results. What do you use?

[@Amathusukx]

+Richard F Like any cleaning product, that's the point

[@temperatechicken]

[@electronicsNmore]

Really need to add some Balsamic after the olive oil application.

[@Meech007USA]

I didn't have olive oil so i used all purpose flour

[@banjokazooie5394]

Next video: You've been breathing wrong.

[@timmartin1366]

I just use bacon grease from the fry pan to clean the dashboard. Then if I get hungry I can lean over and lick the dashboard for a quick snack.

[@COOLSODA5]

LOL

[@ashertaz]

Well, apparently , when running you should breathe air in through the nose and expel it through the mouth. Some people don't know that ( or don't do it).

[@AKShamu28]

asher taz But wouldn't that video be called 'You've Been Running Wrong'?

[@ashertaz]

Same rule applies to breathing while exercising. So, at the very least it should be called : "You've been breathing wrong... while running".

[@gamermatix2]

Erfan Hosseini then call it; 'you've been crying about stuff wrong'' -,-

[@Fucknuts4u]

olive oil is going to cook your dash as the sun hits it. you need to use products with UV protectant

[@dozer1642]

When my dash looks bad, I use a stick of butter on it. My car smells wonderful and I can make toast on my dash while I'm in the store. I also like to lubricate my door hinges with raw bacon. Quiets them squeaks right away. And when my seats get a little stinky I spread cake batter on them. So much better that those nasty trees hanging from the mirror.

[@uguegue]

You made my day I could not stop laughing for an hour , the best was the bacon on your door handle.

[@dozer1642]

+henry raneiri lol. I'm happy I can spread joy just like the cake frosting on my passenger seat.

[@BungeeRooster]

When my headrest is all blackened, I throw it in the deep fryer. This way I can have a snack while I'm driving too!

[@macster1457]

IRTEHLEETOKNPBB roaches love olive oil.

[@IRTEHLEETOKNPBB]

Mac Pelao have you ever in your life seen a roach in any car? even in the ones that are not cars but simply a trash bin?

[@macster1457]

IRTEHLEETOKNPBB of course I have.. why do you think I left that comment?.. I've seen roaches in lots of cars..specially in cars where there's left over french fries or any kind of food.

[@rikkiace01]

[@33virt]

Try rubbing a Big Mac and Fish and Chips on your dashboard for a better effect

[@ATL.Resa95]

virt ual LMBOOOOOOOO

[@joa8593]

You ruined my car you fucker. The dealership says to only use filet-o-fish.

[@canadaeast]

Such an awesome idea, Now I will park my car in the hot sun, wait a few minutes then toss a steak on the dash, thanks commrade.

[@Acecool]

Oil is one of the worst things that you can use for your dash -- the sun will heat it up and it will cause cracking after a while.

[@SpiritBear12]

Cool, now I can have a non-stick dashboard to fry some eggs on in the sun and save on energy costs. I'll use a silicone coated spatula so I won't want to scratch up my dashboard.

[@PaSP_YT_DE]

Everybody please watch videos from ChrisFix if you want to treat your car the right way.

[@BSCCrimson]

STOP TELLING ME I AM DOING THINGS WRONG

[@CrazyRussianHacker]

LOL it is just a CONTROVERSAL tattle make a video more people want to see it that's all.... :P

[@Sinaeb]

***** You've been cleaning your leather wrong all your life?

[@CrazyRussianHacker]

***** maybe so ;) and maybe i will make a video about it hahahah

[@CrazyRussianHacker]

Rem something like that :)

[@CrazyRussianHacker]

Spacekat Tommy there is no wrong way to do it this is just CONTROVERSIAL title lol

[@TurboEspeon42]

Yea, but now your car smells like extra virgins...I mean olives...

[@mudemmeonick]

After a while the car will smell rancid. Guaranteed. And depending on the acidity of the oil, it might react with the plastics.

[@frogmandave1]

No doubt. Rancid indeed!

[@jennychiltoon7130]

Ive been using it for years with no problems

[@mudemmeonick]

Guess rancid smell is your thing.

[@FCFordLord]

I never used olive oil, though I used veggie oil on the floor board of my truck for years and never had it go rancid.

[@kitten_purrrs73]

your so right!!

[@19aas95]

Way to go, not only did you grease up your leather, but on hot summer days, its gonna heat up your dash even more and crack it. Why not put it on your steering wheel as well? Go ahead and make it shiny and slippery like the rest of the car and turn it into a hazard.

[@brandonwiley6530]

I know how you feel man I'm sitting laughing at how wrong this is

[@drewhall3958]

true coming form a car detailer

[@xq39]

His dashboard is made of plastic, anyone with brains and leather knows not to do that.

[@Finesse460]

.. Not to mention your car will smell like an Italian kitchen, along with oil stains all over your clothes. What an inconvenience.

[@drewhall3958]

it can cause cracking on the dash and make leather slippery

[@nikkolaus]

Your car is gonna smell like an Italian restaurant...

[@KStaaf]

I use bacon for the shine and smell. Even keeps the Talibans away.

[@charliewolf7500]

Spot on. I have been using Coconut oil in my cars for decades. No cracks or tears. The leather is nice and soft, looks like new and smells great, like a trip to the beach. Cheers mate.

[@thmpick]

When I clean my dashboard with olive oil, when & if I manage to park in the sun for two, three or more hours, All I need do is add 3 gloves fresh chopped garlic, spread italian cheese, onion, diced green & or red pepper, green & or black olives, mushrooms, basil & anchovies on oiled dashboard, leave windows up and solar heat to 110 degrees for 90 minuets……WOW talk about a great topping combo for the pizza & bread sticks I was cooking on the hot engine block…… Works best with longer periods of vehicle operation!

[@rofyle]

Sucks to be you, Crazy Russian Hacker, because I haven't been cleaning my car's dashboard at all.

[@zeroqp]

Joke's on you, I don't have a car!

[@wurly164]

Now add some cheese and tomato sauce

[@BL3ZER_]

[@skiperpraid2711]

i wood like some eggs also...please 😂😂😂

[@bokibo87]

And some pasta please.

[@jkchannel9494]

Kkkkkkkk

[@geraf33]

soon as the heat evaporates the oil you will have a film of olive oil on all of your windows and then dust will cling to it and you'll be driving blind lol

[@Vortigon]

Ghost Rodgers no oil doesn't 'evaporate unless your dash gets to about 900 degrees

[@geraf33]

Richard Clark the inside of cars get hot enough that some of it will find itself on the inside glass, I've seen it happen

Congratulations, your car is now greasy and smells like olive garden.

[@naimeshraj]

FYI .. Those dashboard clears don't attract dust ... And your idea is to attract more dust to dashboard ... Now you are doing it wrong

[@tibzig1]

Now your car smells like an olive oil factory! :)

[@ubb4me]

Olive oil turns rancid after a short time. Good way to make your car stink.

[@victorr_o4]

use baby oil then

[@ubb4me]

I do but not on my dashboard.

[@douglasnerge6701]

Victor Jaime of

[@Hudson1910]

It would probably smell divine if you soaked some garlic in the olive oil before using it. Then you could play some italian music very loudly while driving...

[@butterflyqueen9260]

[@the_unkn0wn_podcast]

You should make another channel called you have been doing it wrong and only show these type of videos

[@subaruanon]

Just use Meguiar's Natural Shine Protectant. It smells nice, has UV protectant (which means it won't bake in the sun and release fumes), and is water based so it won't dry out your interior or attract even more dust like olive oil will. Plus it's only $4 on Amazon.

[@Finesse460]

Yes!

[@PeterCieply]

Finally someone with some sense, just don't turn around and put Pepsi on your tires for shine k?

[@dennyshonda]

Jacob Burnette No silicone(glass) in Meguiar's. Better than armour-all, anyday.

[@geoffreybrowning6044]

Jacob Burnette Its only 3.97 at Walmart without shipping charges.

[@PeterCieply]

I really have to stop eating coffee and dohnuts in the car :/

[@macallanvintage]

If you want something that's natural, highly moisturising, totally non greasy, wont create a dust magnet and gives a very subtly rich, deep, low gloss shine, save your banana skins and rub it on your dashboards. Looks superb and no dust build-up. Fragrant banana aroma.

[@JohnDoe-pt4mc]

Non-organic Canola oil works pretty well too. The pesticides in it break down grime and grease, while the GMOs wear it away.

[@salleo406]

You are right and the pesticides will ensure you don't get an infestation of insects, the downside is your dashboard will eventually come down with cancer.

[@JoeSkutnik]

Sal Leo lol

[@UPlayNetwork]

This is great advice, better olive oil than those chemical filled polishes, and the natural way looked awesome, thanks for this

[@jesuscervantesj82]

Until it cooks and cracks ur dashboard

[@davelloyd6882]

On a hot day you can add bacon, eggs and sausage to your dashboard and when you arrive at work your breakfast will be cooked

[@911alps]

Can u do a video with vegetable oil, red wine vinegar and soy sauce to show which is best .....pleeeeeease 😀

[@TheMattynaught01]

Using an organic oil is a bad idea, this guy is pretty good but not this time. Organic oil will become rancid after a while and start to smell pretty ordinary, that's just a start. I wouldn't do this.

[@KugelSchwindler25]

THIS.

[@TheMattynaught01]

WTF?

[@KugelSchwindler25]

TheMattynaught01 It just means I agree with your post. Like "this is truth."

[@silk.bones.333]

its gonna look shiny and smells like...whale lmfao

[@VarnHomestead]

I use low fat butter.

[@gettricksdietryin]

I spread butter on toast... not my dashboard

[@jojodiver8706]

+nick carbo I just use my left over french fries.

[@VarnHomestead]

nick carbo I'm from america we put butter on everything. Paula Deen said its the best.

[@gettricksdietryin]

+nx2overide lol do you wipe it off with a pork chop

[@VarnHomestead]

nick carbo Yes, but you have to use one fresh out of the deep fryer.

[@everettholbrook2710]

And if you're hungry you can eat a healthy dashboard.

[@D34THAWAITSU]

A better idea would be lemon oil, because it would smell way better and isn't as thick and greasy as olive oil. plus olive oil is expensive anyways, the "chemicals" can't be that far off in price.

[@carrie6711]

except for the fact that lemons are acidic - which gives it the sour smell. Very bad for leather

[@D34THAWAITSU]

Adrian Bugajski He was rubbing it on his dash, im talking plastic stuff, i wouldn't use either lemon oil or olive oil on my leather seats and have to sit in that...

[@ElKab00m]

[@mactube37]

ok, usually you have some pretty good tips. but this is not a good idea lol. it will smell bad over time and if you touch it it will leave a stain you cant get rid of.... and probably attract all kinds of bugs.

[@paulstastny5583]

This is a terrible idea. Any oil-based cleaner actually attracts dust after you clean the item. I've used oil before on things and it's awful afterward.

[@starmazaheri7448]

[@rollerskateuniverse6763]

For real leather (not vinyl), the leather must be cleaned with glycerine-based leather cleaners or ph-balanced cleaners such as fiebing's or lexol. Follow up with oil, such as neatsfoot (or mink, if you're rich, lol). This will prevent the leather from absorbing water and cracking as well as keep the leather softened, further extending the life of your seats.

[@marcorubio2962]

Only problem with this is if you ever drop a lit cigarette in your car, you're as good as dead

[@ihatekpeng]

This is definitely NOT good for your car.

[@sheylascott6042]

cheapest and safest way is using....WATER *O*

[@pombamz1]

the dashboard should not be shining :D

[@gasgiant7122]

Great video’s, does it work on vinyl and plastic? Also it looks like a lot less effort with olive oil, great tip👍

[@jesuiscequejesuis2267]

Great idea. Plus there's an added bonus. On really hot days that would fry an egg on your dashboard, you actually can fry an egg on your dashboard - *_without it sticking._* Much more healthy than frying with butter. ;-)

[@sammwise865]

And much healthier than frying in those chemicals!😄

[@NormFasey]

So now your car will smell like the Deli Counter at Whole Foods. Hehe. Actually, to be more accurate, you aren't cleaning to dashboard. You are covering it in a thin film of Olive Oil which is restoring the shine. There must be a better substance to use that won't make your car smell like salad dressing?

[@Alexander-iq5yq]

Lemon oil. I use it on my guitars.

[@mineborders]

[@ivijuri]

I still dont see why he takes a five minute video to say that you can use olive oil to clean you dashboard.

[@TrapSquad]

Yeh its True it works & yes after a while it will attract dust but any kind of Dish Soap Will Deactivate the Oily base as a way to get it off Don't put it on the rim off the steering wheel because it is very slippery & can cause you to slip while operating the vehicle so just use it for the dash or the doors :) & the center console

[@theguy9872]

True it will get all greasy and slippery and your car can burn if it gets way too hot because you cook with oil

[@rafaelb702]

***** you're always on these car videos huh lmao me and you are exactly the same haha you're the one who watches acc0rd79 right?

[@rafaelb702]

Haha yup

[@DanNorth42]

I suspect it would be awesome to sit down and have a beer with this guy.

[@Arcamea]

Its not cleaning by any means, but if you are going to "USE" a oil to supposedly clean your car dashboard, use something like a mineral oil as opposed to olive oil which will start to go stale and rancid after some time.

[@EricWilsonrocks]

Nope, not by any means, removing dust while at the same time treating the leather is in no way cleaning.

[@Arcamea]

Yeah and with the oil going rancid after awhile you might as well smear urine on there.

[@EricWilsonrocks]

Aaron Mah yes, because he's obviously saying to use a huge amount of olive oil and leaving it sitting in a puddle on the dash. Also not like olive oil has antioxidant properties. Treating leather with oil has definitely not been being done for longer than either of us have been alive......

[@Arcamea]

It doesn't have to be a "giant" puddle or a little smear, its still going to go rancid after awhile. I work in a kitchen in a hotel and when we season our woks/heavy duty pans, we don't use olive oil or canola oil, we use mineral oil because we know when we put it in storage it won't go scummy or rancid after awhile. Same thing for leather, you don't use olive oil.

[@EricWilsonrocks]

Aaron Mah A light amount of olive oil redone every month or so is not going to go rancid, and the reason you don't season a pan with olive oil is because of it's low smoke temp. I was actually a chef before the world of restaurants drove me insane and decided I'd never work in a kitchen again. Way too much drama and BS for not enough pay. That doesn't really matter though.... Anyway, in storage for long periods of time, it would go stale, but lightly on a surface exposed to plenty of air circulation, sunlight, etc. it would evaporate off before it went rancid, and it can easily work even better if you add a couple drops of essential oil to the oil. Mineral oil would work too though, and probably better, but that doesn't mean olive oil wouldn't work. I'm honestly not sure why I'm even typing this right now, it may be the large quantities of caffeine over the past few hours, or that I'm waiting for my wife to get off the phone so I'm bored, I don't know.

[@SuperRajududesyoutub]

Although leather does indeed become a little suppler after applying olive oil, this instant gratification comes with a price. Olive oil, and every oily substance for that matter, will not "nourish" your leather, but actually accelerate its deterioration. Leather is extremely permeable, and will soak up any oils you put on it. When oil first saturates leather, it seeps to the back-to the part you can't see. Eventually, the oil ends up spreading throughout the leather and naturally resurfaces. Once this happens, your leather will have unsightly oil spots. That's not good. We love our clever, DIY cleaning solutions, but sometimes they're not quite as good as they seem. That's the case with oil, or oily substances like peanut butter. Keep them off your couches, shoes, and other leather. Do not use olive oil to fix your leather!
