You know a huge thank you to Pan the Organizer for showing us the DIY, as I'm just a guy who loves keeping my cars clean. I'm not a professional by any means. Ivan you guys come out with some amazing products that just make the detailing funner than hell to do. I think when I run out of my KC Gentle Snow Foam I've got to try the Incredible Suds. The foam looks like shaving cream, top-notch products Ivan. And thanks for the education we all get!

one of the biggest game changer for me was using a clay towel and iron remover as lubrication. Saves time (clay towel has more coverage compared to regular clay) and also money (since I am using so much less iron remover). Learned this from one of the DIY videos! Thanks guys!

Love that friendly tutor style! I had to smile about the lesson on pointing the pressure washer away, as I just had that lesson in real life: The two-part lance would not snap in and silly me sent the first half flying against my brand-new Tesla. At least it was far enough not to leave a dent, and Kaercher puts some soft plastic at the tip. Now there‘s a new gadget to buy: Those decontamination towels. Fwiw, finding a cheap way to ship to the EC would probably give you some extra business :)

The 8 year ceramic coating looks awesome, do you recommend 1 layer or two? I have a BMW 1 Series hatchback, do you think 30ml would be enough for 2 coats?

@diydetailofficial 9 ай бұрын

One layer is all you need! If you want to stack products, we recommend putting the 3 year coating on top (wait 2 hours after applying the 8 year coating). As for the BMW, one bottle is all you need (if you’re just planning on using the 8 year ceramic. One bottle can get you a couple of vehicles)

I've always disliked the two bucket method. I've never used it in the 3 years I've been detailing. I am a firm believer in foam on dry car let dwell and re foam to keep it from drying as I live in florida and then after a total of 5 minutes I rinse and rinse extensively, then re foam heavyish and I have a 6quart bucket and I foam it from the foam cannon then fill it a little with water and do contact wash with the mitt you guys sell. Rinse and dry with my towel and drying aid...

It seems they don't need the lone bucket either. The girl washes the entire truck without soaking new shampoo. Cleans in heavily soiled areas and then goes to areas where it should have started. I think that talking too much causes us to make those mistakes. While doing homework, there is nothing better than listening to Johann Sebastian Bach.

@@diydetailofficial Another detail, it is advisable to use protective gloves for the skin. It is known that cleaning products contain polymers that enter our body in case of contact with the skin. They cause cumulative damage to our body, which generally manifests itself in the long term. You are welcome.
