What would you use for rust spots on Alloy wheels? I have a 20 inch RR Autobiography wheels and I don’t want to resurface them and have to repaint them. It’s hard to match the OEM color. Any suggestions?

You’re going to be the new Auto Detailing Guru. Man, this is the kind of video that the average Joe Shmoe needs. I-as I’m sure many others-have found themselves in that Walmart aisle overthinking and wasting precious time trying to buy the basics. This stuff ain’t cheap, and buyer’s regret is real. I saved all your recommended products and will be going back!
For my wheels, I use the Meguiars hot rims wheel cleaner, which has been my favorite for many many years. For the tire shine, I use Meguiars hot shine tire coating. Love the wet look it gives. For my interior cleaner, I use my chemical guys non scented total interior cleaner/protectant. I personally like it because it's non scented.
I think this is one of the better information videos that anyone has made recently. Great information good presentation, keep up the good work. Stay humble.
Great video. I’m a mechanic but love detailing my own cars. I hate Walmart stopped selling all the Jay Lenos products and replaced them with Adam’s. I had great luck with the Jay Lenos Garage stuff. Personally I like the Turtle Wax wheel cleaner the best and their wash as well but good wash soap isn’t hard to find. But I grab Sprayway glass cleaner over anything else but that’s just my opinion.
I stay stocked with Stoner's Glass Cleaner, its one of the best out there and been using them for over 20yrs. Diablo is weak, i use it to wash my rags with 😅😅😅😅😅 but that VRP will get you right as it has mutliple uses.
For drying, what I usually do is I have a leaf blower, I blow off all the excess water and come back with a microfiber drying towel to get what's left.
Best tire shine in my opinion is cover-all you can get it over at autozone has an amazing shine that actually lasts, even after some rain. And it doesn't sling on the body as much
As a soon-to-be ex-Detail Garage owner, you were spot on for why it’s locked up. 😂 Shits trash. 4 years ago I would’ve recommended it to anyone, hence why I owned the store. Since they sold out to an equity firm in 2021, everything is different.
You have a lot of "no-go" items but you don't say why they are not recommended. I think we need to know why you don't like products like Chemical Guys Diablo. What does it do or not do that you don't like? I use the Absorber drier after using a leaf blower to dry my car. What do you think is wrong with The Absorber?
That’s what’s up James. 👊🏾Appreciate this Walmart shopping list that you recommended. Just getting started myself. And like you said we got to start somewhere. I Discovered you throw Hunter’s Detailing video when he came into the shop. I love how you brake things down. Keep up the awesome work. And my god continue to bless you and yours 🤙🏾👊🏾👍🏾 🙏🏾
Meguiars hyper dressing is great for interior dressing and wheels. The chemical guys had water spot remover works pretty good. Supremes dark fury is great for bug and tar remover and wheel cleaner.
Just finished watching your video and the recommendations are good. But I do agree with you on Armor All. All their products are garbage. I use to use them but didn't know any better and saw how the results weren't as great as McGuire's or Chemical Guys. Thank you for the information.
Highly impressed with your channel. Your knowledge is outstanding, and the style of your videos and the delivery is excellent. Respect from the UK. Errol.
Haven't watched yet, but when I was younger, we used bleche wite on tires, and the dirt just ran off of it....We used armoral on all the plastic....Now i would say, bleche wite for tires, Tire shine for protectant. The spray called "tire shine". Awesome for cleaning surfaces and removing scuffs, armoral for protectant n shine. maybe a spray bottle of alcohol for windows. I don't understand why people buy expensive products. We use to make cars look fresh when we were young. Now I'll go watch the video n see your pick.
Purple Power Concentrate will strip everything, so no need for a bug cleaner and brake buster. I use the Chemical Guy's citrus gloss and shine, then Meguiar's Hybrid ceramic wax. It seems to be a kitchen sink method, but it works. The only downside for me is i did all this with hard water. So, a hard water removal is needed for me.
What do you use to remove water spots? Do you ever use any kind of compound, wax or polish? I understand that you mention the spray on detailers, do you use any rub on applied wax, polish, coumpound, clay bars? Great video thank you for the advice.
Thanks for the tips….just bought a new 2024 Lexus and I need to know what to use to keep my car new. I know there are pros and cons at the car wash, I want my car safe as possible. This video, I thank you.
I can’t believe you forgot about SuperClean! It’s the handy way! I use it fully concentrated by spraying it all over the car and letting it bake in the sun for ultimate shine 👍🏾
I only had a $75 dollar budget for detailing and, I am sorry but I had to use Armorall. As I make more money, I will use something like Chemical guys, Adams polishes, suds labs and Meguiars.
I honestly can’t complain with the meguires ceramic sprays……. (Blue and green bottles by his shoulder at 4:32) use the blue bottle as your initial wax coating and touch up with the green bottle ceramic detailer. Both have fantastic results if you spray on a clean wet car and power wash from the bottom up then top down to rinse.
Lmao placed my comment before you said the same thing…….. one thing I would add, in my experience I get the best results if you let the blue bottle cure for 3 hours or so before stacking the ceramic detailer. Love from Canada 🇨🇦
McGuires wax quick spray is amazing .. purple power for the win also the mcguires wheel cleaner works great for decently abused wheels … Wally world is the the shiet 1 stop shop for me 🤣🤣
There are two distinct formulas. One is commercial grade and the other is consumer grade. You can usually tell by the label. You can always tell when you use them side by side.
Armor All is not very good but when i started i used it because it was a good price and well cleaned i thought when i started try using the stuff he mentioned in this video its pricey but it works.
The wheel cleaner I agree with,suds lab does make some quality products. I really like their ceramic spray sealant. The maguires spray on rinse off stuff,ill pass on that,used it and left my truck streaky. The turtle wax bug and tar remover,ill pass on that too. The maguires is far better imo,I used the turtle wax last week ,left it sit for about 5 minutes and still smeared all over the hood. Don't sleep on the turtle wax minute wax streak free mist bottle,wet or dry you may be surprised in the gloss and slickness.
Back in my days back in the late eighty Mothers car wash and to dry with the leather Cham and I waxed with Mothers California Gold. Armor All was the only plastic product. Now I detail completely different products.
Well, I made the chemical guys mistake too😂 blew 1k so far with them. Ima be honest the invisible cleaner or leather cleaner didn't help me as much tackle alot of stained seats but some of the chemical guys products are good
Yo this is great fucking video. It’s exactly what I was looking for! You gave me somewhere great info, never a dull moment!! 👍🏽👍🏽 I’m about to run to my Walmart see what they got in there.
