Some call me lazy some call me efficient. I'm definitely gonna use that line

Like Yvan I'm was born in the 60's. I'm a c3 fan but I'm also a corvette fan of any years. I have my 78 corvette for 34 years. Now all I use is Diy detail products on it. I use a mist of rinceless wash and ceramic gloss every time I drive back in the garage. My interior have the interior ceramic coating and my tire are wash with all clean and topped with diy detail tire shine.

Great video, love that your doing what the customer wants.

Discovered your channel a few months ago and working through your videos - you guys are great and really deserve more subscribers!

You guys are awesome. Thank you for all of the hard work and content 🤘😎🤘

Great and informative as always, love this format. 🤟

Started using DIY rinseless wash in the hot weather and shade ..Really speeded my process up with its great cleaning ability...Keep the great videos going have learned so much..

Awesome video! Yvan,you sure did look good in that corvette!

Exactly the video I need, since I haven’t gotten your polish test, but do want to ceramic coat. Thanks guys!

Just what I needed! Pretty awesome you can spray the water spot remover and let it dwell for a long time.

Great video!

Great video guys. Can't wait to apply this to the truck this weekend. (minus the ceramic coating) Waiting on my All Clean and Gold Standard wool and waffle pads to arrive. As always go team mullet.

I have a 2004 Z06 which I love! 541whp. It's fun! Red with Mod Red interior. That's a nice Z06 droptop. Lots of nice tips and tricks in this video. I've also had a Lingenfelter 4th gen Corvette with a 383 stroker engine.

Keep up the ‘full videos’ of doing cars. I love the process and detailed description of the steps. I also like the small talk between those steps. Let’s see you wash a minivan.

I did my first ceramic coating kast weekend using various diydetail products and i absolutely love them. If you're not sure about buying it i haghly recommend diydetail. Since I'm in Mexico i would love to see you guys ship internationally

I’m in the UK so I don’t have an iconic American car in mind (although the original mustangs are pretty cool). However in terms of iconic British Cars for me it will always be the classic Mini. I had one as my first car (sadly rolled it within 6 months 😭) and 20 years later I’m determined to get another one when I have the spare money and a garage to store it. When I do that thing is gonna be detailed within an inch of its life 😂. For now my car is a 2006 Yaris with 116,000 miles on the clock but it’s proving a very good learning car for trying detail things on without worrying too much about any potential damage I might do. When DIY Detail products hit the UK I’ll be trying out polishing for the first time on it as watching the Gold Standard system makes me feel comfortable doing so.

Regards from México!,,,

Pro Tip - wash with the sponge or decontamination towel the lower parts (ie rocker panels, wheel well openings, etc) AFTER you have washed the hood and sides of the car. This way you have less chance of carrying the dirtier area’s debris to the upper parts of the car.

Nice!

Uggg I got one of those dusters. Used it lots when I digest got my brand new Jeep. It worked great to keep it clean after a rain storm. But now I know a lot better. Better to do a quick rinseless wash then a dusting. I’m going to toss mine. I’ll also be polishing with gold standard to fix my past mistakes.

I usually use APC full strength when prepping for a coating

Hey I didn't know you were in Omaha! 402 represent! I'm from Nebraska but living in Iowa currently. Hope to see you in person at some point!

Great stuff guys. I applied a coating to my daily driver and did pretty much the same process. Wash, clay with iron remover, acid based soap foam Carpro Descale) and wipe in. Then panel prep and good to go. Also I love my Ryobi 760 cfm leaf blower for drying 😁

Great videos guys. Question: Can one use a clay lubricant instead of the iron remover for the PSD towel?

Every time I see Nick bending down to hit a wheel, I can feel it in my knees. There was a time when I could do that, too. One gets older and it's not necessarily a pretty picture. If you don't mind my saying, perhaps introduce the use of a rolling stool to your audience. Saves knees and backs, and makes life easier all around.

This was a very informative video, thank you! One question, if you don't have a way to touch less dry the vehicle would you re-wet the surface with rinseless and then dry with a towel or will that interfere with the ceramic coating?

1969 Camaro Z28 is my altime favorite

New to your channel and love all the DYI videos. Can you tell me about your products as far as environmental safety. My home is on our own private well and no sanitary sewer. My concern is the chemicals leaching down into my well. Can't find anything on your website. My first order should be here soon cant wait!

Hello We need your advice to get our shop to the next level.

Would you guys ever consider putting product in store somewhere? I would love to be able to run out an pick up some DIY detail stuff if I was running low.

The link for the video about the tunnel washes didn't appear

A very educational channel, great job👏👏👏 May i ask what type of foam are you using on the IK? wet, dry or intermediat? Thank you 🤗

I ceramic coated a brand new toyota without polishing. Car landed at dealer, I told them not to wash it, I picked up car and brought it straight home. Washed, decontaminated(had lots of metal dispite bring brand new), IPA spray, then cermaic coated. Yes there were some paint problems from the factory, not a big deal for me. Its a toyota, wasnt worth spending hours polishing. I just wanted to coat the car right away.

Would it still be beneficial to do these extra steps if we plan on polishing?

Hey! Why didn't you just dry with a microfiber towel? Asking as I don't have a leaf blower 😅

Can you use the RinseLess wash in the windshield washer system if so what dilution ratio do you recommend?

What if said cleaning tool that was found in the trunk was used very carefully? Or 100% get rid of it?

I have a 2003 C5 Speedway White Corvette. It has a marring type issue on the lower back driver side corner, it looks it may have been created by the factory GM non-lined cover. Recommended steps and product to correct the paint?

Did a 2023 Bronco recently, but seem to have some sort of protection on it after prepping, before polishing. In this case, would you still polish??

Ready, lets roll

Hey guys... was the car dried before the water spot remover was sprayed on ?

If I don’t have foamer, will it still be effective to spray on the All Clean, let it dwell, then spray on rinse less, then agitate with the legacy sponge while contact washing?

Do you guys sell your products in europe too?

Once you polish a car and apply one of your ceramic coatings, is there any reason to polish again before the end of the ceramic coatings intended life (3, 5, or 8 yrs) if it is well maintained with weekly hand washes, water spot remover and iron remover as needed and perhaps topped off with ceramic gloss every couple months? Will polishing with the gold standard diminish some of the ceramic coating? Thanks!

Would your prosses as shown remove a spray on ceramic coating?

I like the Dodge RAM and I have now my one Gen4 in Germany! Bye the way I'm a car detailer as well!

❤

I use a leaf blower? I take it with me when I go to self car wash too. Thanks to rechargeable batteries!

If I've been using Ceramic Gloss on my vehicle, would All Clean be able to remove that too? Or would Ceramic Gloss _require_ machine polishing?

What coating is on that car? It is extremely shiny without being polished?

Chevy Nomads are the bees knees.

Is there a time limit on rinseless wash in a pump sprayer?

Water spot remover in gallons please!

10:02 "wife gets in a way" 😉😭

Can you apply any of the ceramic coatings to RVs? I’m guessing the process is the same?

70s for me

20:07 ups, "accidental discharge"... 😉

Even if the car was brand spanking new there would still be swirls and blemishes from factory. Never seen a car without them new. I’d still polish at all times before a coating

I dry mine with TW wax-it-wet some thick microfibers and vaccuum that also blows :D

There are so many iconic Chevrolets, and it's hard to pick one. But if I had to pick one, it would be a 69 ZL1 Camaro.

C5

74 stingray. While the new ones are nice, they don't have the soul and sex appeal of the old split windows.

That's Still way to much work. Can you just cut all those steps in Half? Surly washing and degreasing should be good enough?

What a shame.
