Thank you. No one else would answer my question about the dust because they wanted to continue to get free stuff from the company’s. Thank you for being honest

You are still the undisputed King of Understatement. Love your type of humor. I also love the projects you take on. My father in law and I used to do fun projects like these, and we had a blast frankensteining up a fun vehicle to tool around the ranch in. I sute miss those days, and I sure miss him.

The dust forms a protective patina that acts as a barrier to protect against things like gravels and boulders, so I think you did it right in the first place...

You have become my new favorite KZfaq’er. Keep it simple and stay real forever.

I saw Derek using the shine oil some time ago and thought I would try it on my old garden tractor. I never got around to doing it and then I saw you putting on the Jeep P/U and it looked great. Then I see this video and I won't be trying it on anything now. It would probably help with stopping some rust, but the dust gets real bad here sometimes. Thanks for the update and keep on having fun I'll be watching.

I use my own mix of "shine juice" for vintage bikes here in Georgia and I've found that if I need to keep anything I've coated to have a hard and glossy sheen that repels dust I use 3-4 coats and let it cure in the garage for a couple weeks.

I wondered too, after watching VGG do it, I had always thought of doing the same to my '77 J10 with similar patina but knew it might just make a mess. Our area has heavy winds that blow fine grey glacial dust (pretty similar to the desert dust) around for hundreds of km!

That's a great old Jeep, and I watched it come up from a frame and a pile of parts. Great job 👍☮️

One of my new favorite channels 👍👍

Another episode full of great tips. I have gained a renewed appreciation for Jeep vehichles here;but I especially like the gear in Granpa's backyard ! Greetings from N.H.

Good morning everyone! This channel is a well kept secret. Always great to see you all in the comments. Have a super weekend!

Hay all, Derek recently came out with his own developed and redesigned shine juice from some manufacture and its way improved, check it out in one of his new video's. It dries fully with no stickiness. But hey, if you have no other option and you need it rite now it will fill the bill. I love watching this guy, he knows every hack and trick to get the job done. I always learn something.

Thank you so much showing every one haw to wash and scrub the mud off the car with a green brillo pad! just finish a car that did that. Stingray 2020 he did all of the car this way. I made $6000.00 fixing keep the good work and videos this keep food on the Tabell for my kids LOL

Hi , as you say , just keep moving on ,have fun .

I'm thinking the Shine Juice is probably best used back East - but maybe here it would collect leaves. It does look slick, but the linseed oil kinda raised a red flag for me - that was my dad's cure for everything, including rust - I remember it being sticky. I'll bet it does wonders (temporarily) for the dreaded white clearcoat that used to be so prevalent. Maybe the Shine Juice is a secret formula used by used car lots that has final gone public.

All this truck washing is getting out of hand. It is tarnishing an otherwise perfect reputation. KZfaq, let this channel shine!

No bolts on the leaf springs... Isn't that what is known as 'quick release suspension'..? For when you need to do super quick pitstops at the race track. That's a feature, right there!

This is such a beautiful truck, amazing work bringing it back from the dead.

"excessive washing" 🤣

I have heard that modern 'boiled' linseed oil is chemically different than traditionally boiled linseed oil and doesn't harden fully or in the same span of time. This appears to be a side effect of this difference.

*_why am I having so much fun watching you struggle and having to MacGyver so many parts... ENTERTAINING CONTENT, that's why_*

Loving the sound of that 6

That shine juice may work better with some hardener added. Since it's based on BLO, Japan Drier might be a good choice.

Could always lightly sand that off and hit it with some clear coat. Once it dries it’s at least not sticky. Problem with Boiled linseed oil is how long it takes to harden. Yeah dry to the touch in 12 hours or whatever but still tacky for weeks. Great for wood stocks though if you’ll keep them inside until they’re cured.

Looks like a feller led a feller wrong?

Great metaphor for everything I do. Now where's that random LEGO I've stepped on twice barefoot?

I like that rig! even the jacked up paint, fuel tank and the hookey spedo rig, I bought a couple of those made in China GPS spedos on sale at amazon for 18 bucks (couple years ago) they all work still! I cant figure out how to set em up though as far as clocking milage for my fuel gages that dont work...

The VGG brand shine juice isn't sticky. If you did a diy with boiled linseed oil that's probably why you have dirt stuck to your truck.

My Grandmother told me a story about sometime in the 1950s or 1960s she coated their car with a silicone gel from my Grandfather's work, said it was the worst decision ever when it snowed and all of the road grime and salt stuck to the car, she said the blue Buick turned black on the bottom.

I heard someone invented a pressure washer.

I have always wanted a CJ10.

Thank you it was very informative video.

For a more permanent solution, check out Poppy’s Patina. While it can be sprayed, it’s made to be wiped on as a clear coat. Works well!

Wax and grease remover is what is needed to remove all of that oily concoction. Painters use it with two rags, one on rash had so you wipe the wet rag with the remover solvent, and dry with the other. On really bad contamination it may need more than one application. If the contamination is not removed you will get fish eyes in your new paint and also poor adhesion. Never use oily products on paint. The dirt that sticks becomes sand paper and will remove a finish

Well dust is part and parcel of your location. I do think the paint work looks really nice now anyway. I will call that a win. By this time next year you'll still be winning.

Glad I found this video I was just about to buy that stuff .

I laughed all the way through this episode. I don’t know why.

Don’t worry - it looks beautiful flat

So, what should happen now is you sell me that truck and I'll do the shine juice test in Indiana where we don't have sand storms...lol. One thing I've found that's great for washing grime is Mr Clean Magic Erasers. We use them to get 30mm gun soot, hydraulic fluid, and grease off of our A-10s when we wash them.

Looks like you need some SHINE AWAY 2000 lolol . Hay I spotted the older tan Mercedes in the background. Always kinda liked that body style. Any future plans for it?

hey mate, only with testing can you tell if something works

about them mud wasps, did you check the diff/transfer case/gear box vents? can cause trouble when blocked.

You should have simply clear-coated your vehicle since it has a neat weathered patina. Wonder why the contents of the shine juice mixture do not go well with driven sand?

Hmm, so I'm not in the desert, I'm in the southeast but in the spring we get a coating of pollen/yellow dust for about a month.. It's going to stick anyway but I wonder how much worse It will be with the shine juice

It’s like the truck was a big oil stain and the desert laid its cat litter down to soak it up😅. Cool truck for sure

Did you ever finish this?

One more wash with Dawn dish washing liquid. That'll take your oil off. Or most of it. Or use a degreaser first.

(UK) Dust? We have dust every 10 years or so - freak stuff from Africa or a volcano somewhere.

I wondered how the juice was gonna work with all those weather condition! It looked good while it lasted just not desert approved!

Try mop and glow if you get the juice off.

A full tank of gas is worth.....more than a piece of dirty plywood and three old two by fours....which is $200

What does the machan als have to do with 5he shine juice.?.

Sounds like u may need a set of rod bearings. Common problem in the 300 but my dad put 70000 miles on his with no oil changes and #1 hammering like a caveman. So it will probably be fine

I'm convinced there's nothing this guy can't get running or fix

Dawn is good for BABY ducks! It has to be good for dusty Jeeps!

Duck does rhyme with truck🤔

*- James, would a linseed oil solvent {mineral spirits} work to flush away the boiled linseed oil that still has not dried fully?*

Rod Knock?

I am guessing you're in Las Crusas? We're on the north side.................................................of New Mexico.

unfortunately you may have scratched the paint a little while washing

👍

Start from the outside next time. Gentle on psi

I'm a little slow. On any things. But .I know. Honey. Attached. Ants...bees.. .

"Good enough for a duck, good enough for a truck!"

don't ever believe a Jeep gas gauge!

Your are the only good stupid videos. Keep it up.

What's the purpose of the windmill?

VGG is a menace. He has convinced everyone that shell rotella T6 is the best thing to put in your engine. Now I can't find any for my diesel truck. Never mind that API doesn't even rate it for gasoline engines. And now he had you tar and feather your jeep, he must be stopped.

Sue the company

Sounds like a rod wants some attention...

I LIKE YOUR HOME MADE WIND MILL / DOES IT POWER ANYTHING ?

Dawn is the absolute worst soap you can use to wash a car. Instead, buy designed soap from parts house

shiny is over rated

Don't take advice from rip-off merchants. You're not a crook trying to off-load garbage, like that boring feller.
