Hey I’m currently living in Jamaica and I’m thinking of buying a 5 series however I’m a little bit skeptic, what I would like to know is how to get any parts that would wear without going to the dealer, brands for the sensors, plugs, great oil for oil change and all,
“I’m really not that into detailing.” Now off we go with a pressure washer, foam canon, two wash buckets, grit protectors, various soaps, mitts, sprays, brushes, towels, blowers, etc. 😂
seriously, i have purchased so much stuff and have stuff in my amazon cart...apartment living...if all of this will save me coins in the long run, i can dig it. 😅
I cracked up at the comment "I'm not that into detailing". My man, I hate to break it to you, but you are MOST DEFINITELY into detailing! Welcome to the club!
I don’t think there’s anything better than a subtle, OEM+ build on any car🔥 Love the car and the video, Justin! Makes me excited to wash my GTI tomorrow😂
This video came out so great babe! I’m so proud of the time you take to make your videos and the steps you go through to make sure every video is high quality. You don’t rush for the sake of getting out a video and the care shows in everything you put out. So proud of you! ♥️
This definitely is one of the highest quality videos that get straight to the point. Will keep this as my go to video for getting better at washing my car.
Hi Justin…..I do almost the same process with one exception. Rather than rinsing the microfiber mitt in a clean water bucket (which might not clean all the grit out), I fill one bucket with soapy water and put 5 mitts in it to pull out for each section as I go. Then I wash each of the mitts in the washer. Like you, I use a dedicated bucket for the wheels and use a clean microfiber for each rim. Really good tutorial by the way.
Although I recently sold my f30, most of the car care ideas you have applies to any car. Keep up the great content sir! How about an interior cleaning video to follow up this exterior one?
Hey, one thing I'd recommend is to avoid using the green tip on the pressure washer. Although your pressure washer has a low psi, it's generally safer to use the white tip (or one with a larger spray degree) when washing to ensure you don't strip anything if you accidentally get too close.
I always smile when I see you uploading vids like this because it means you don't need to do a bottom end rebuild, replace mosfets in your dme or any other similar nonsense. Guess the B58 is really what they say it is? Right on! P.S. that fakie varial flip was bolts!
Great video. I use a DeWalt leaf blower to blow the water off my car. Works great and some days if the snowfall is not too deep, it’s great to clear my deck and driveway. A clean microfiber towel makes the paint pop. Battery powered is the way to go!
amazing video and production quality as always, living in Michigan, especially with the winter months coming up; our cars will need a lot of washing. this tutorial was very in depth, and thank you for including links ot all the products!
Using a Stubby power wand works wonders with a foam cannon. Also, for those with black paint, use chemical guys blacklight foam soap, and blacklight wax. Keeps my M5 brilliant.
I will say using a leaf blower only really helps if your are ceramic coated, without a coating I have noticed the water grabs the paint and doesn't move very far
Great video! Best one I’ve watched on RU-vid up to now. Makes me want to wash my car. Where you get the wheel studs from? They look good on them wheels
Learned somethin new on this… think I’m gonna try & section off my car with the foam. I normally foam the whole thing… then wash. But I think I may start incorporating your method of foam, rinse, then foam and wash by section.
I’m looking at buying a 17’ 340. It has lived all its 104,000 miles in Wisconsin. So I’m guessing it was a daily driver and wasn’t put up for the winter. I’m wondering what your take is seeing all the BMW’s in your area after 10 years? Will you keep yours garage most winters or drive and clean the underside during the winters? Thanks for your time.
The pressure washer is good. I've had mine for 4 years. I would recommend replacing the hose with a kink free ones like Uberflex or Flexilla and get quick connects. It was a game changer for me.
I liked the video a lot! Your camera work is really nice! For the keyless go thing, I just put my keys inside the car, then it won’t lock and open all the time! :)
Again a great video as always,unfortunately I don't have the oppertunity at home to do it like you. So I just go through the car wash to keep my E90 tidy👊
Hi Justin, I'm from Mexico and I've been following you for quite a while. I love your videos. I just wonder how do you clean the interior door frames and when in the whole process of washing? Nice rotating caps btw, I might get ones.
My advice if anyone didn't mention it is to use a different "sponge" to clean the lowest part of side skirts and bumpers due to the biggest collection of dirt in these spots. So after you dont bring any solid particles in the upper body and scratch it! Nonetheless your car wash is one of the best!
Still hitting 80F in Vancouver, Canada so my handwashing is extended for a bit before it starts to rain...but seriously it's October why is it still summer? Great video like always!
Hi Is using ph neutral soap for prewash snow foam is useless? Or it fits the purpose of pre-wash? Does it remove more dirt than just using pressure wash only?
You need to prime or pre-wash the car first before spraying foam soap, so dirts are removed and prevent the surface from scratched by them later otherwise.
