I’ve put in the time polishing, waxing and cleaning my jeep. This winter, I’m taking my jeep to one of those self car washes, but I’m bringing my own soap, cleaning mitt and towels. I’ll just use their water and not that nasty brush.
I heard from Yvan on DIY Detail that using a leaf blower might not be the best, because the water evaporates, BUT the minerals and sediments in the water still remain on the paint, this is if you don't have a sealant or coating.
If you don’t have paint protection, using a blower to dry a car is not efficient, it’s counterproductive. If you do have paint protection (wax, sealant, coating), using a blower is super fast and efficient, and a touchless way to dry the car.
Every vehicle in the driveway is ceramic coated. 😎😬 it still amazes Me how the water flies off. I love the sno-broom. I get them from My job. I'll definitely try a micro fiber towel on top this winter. Not totally clearing to the paint is spot on! That will totally prevent swirls and scratches. For powdery snow, I will use the leaf blower. Lol, the neighbors think I'm nuts using that to dry the car. I get some strange looks from them when I foam cars too. Lots of great tips and tricks. Thank You!! Enjoy the weekend.
I have dedicated summer tires for my Mustang GT. Right now I'm just using all season tires on a separate set of wheels for the winter. You think I have to have dedicated winter tires? I live in Central Illinois.
Snow tires are not required everywhere in Canada. Just like the different US states, provinces here have different regulations. On the West coast of Canada, in greater Vancouver, they are not required as we get very little snow if any. However if you are travelling through mountain regions, ex. driving to Whistler, they are required in the winter months.

Hi, great video. Sorry newbie question. I will be going to get my vehicle rust checked soon. I've gotten this service before, but this time it will be on a new vehicle with a graphene coating. There is always some overspray that occurs during the application and I was wondering what you would recommend afterwards in getting rid of the excess gunk? They recommend not washing the vehicle for at least 48 hrs, so I'm worried this might screw up the paint/coating. Thank you!
It shouldn’t screw up the coating, assuming you have a quality coating. Wait the 48 hours as instructed, and then simply wash your car. Welcome to my channel.

Winter tires are huge, especially if you own a smaller car that doesn't have a ton of weight to dig into the snow. I got away without them on my big SUV for many years but after spending a winter in my much smaller elantra on some used all seasons I did not hesitate to get a full set of dedicated winters and the difference was massive. Soo much better to drive on.
Absolutely. And in many provinces and states this is now the law. Like here where I live, in the province of Quebec (Canada), winter tires are mandatory as of December 1st at the latest. Given the harsh winters we have, this law saves many lives. Welcome to my channel.

I've long thought that cleaning products for use in sub-freezing temperatures would be the next "front" of development, since so few people have access to a heated garage or wash bay. Keeping a vehicle clean in the winter is really the ultimate challenge.

This is so good. Just walked in 8°F snow to put wiper wash liquid in my car. Who knew that just buying a car wasn't enough?! xD TIL, wiper washer != Anti-freeze for the engine.
My brother used to spray his car with Waxoyl just before winter, then clean it off in the spring. It was black by then! Now he puts his car in to a detailer to have it ceramic coated every couple of years, and does regular washes.
These are fantastic, very practical winter tips, Pan! One tip I can add, following Tip 15 regarding the battery is to keep in the vehicle a Boost Pack such as the one I picked up from Canadian Tire for $148: the NOCO Genius GB40 Boost Plus Booster Pack/Jump Starter, 1000-Amp, 12V. Super handy when in a pinch if your battery accidentally drained or if you need a boost or to help anyone else in a bind. Happy Holidays and stay safe!

Winter tyres I fit to our rear wheel drive BMW's in the UK, but some people recommend due to the milder winters here to fit all season in the winter and fit summer tyres in the summer months.
I would really appreciate if you could make a video on winter outdoor washing. You have few vids of winter washing inside your nice heated garage, but for many of us that live in the cold climates, who do all their washing in the driveway, lacking a garage, it would be great to see some safe simplified winter washing methods, thanks for all the great content.
Unfortunately there is no way for me to do that, as we are below freezing temperatures here in Montreal in the winter. I can't do a wash outside when the weather is -10C or -20C (14F to -4F). There is no miracle solution to freezing weather. You need a heated garage, or you can bring your vehicle to a professional detailer and have them take care of it for you. If you live in a climate where winter is gentler (say 10C to 4C or 50F to 40F), then you could watch this video: th-cam.com/video/yTsUSDD0Zzk/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you, that was a great video. Looks like I'll need to keep making the best of the days above freezing when they occur with my 2 bucket wash.
You can’t if your outside any temps are below freezing even if you use hot water it’s still going to freeze if it’s above freezing temps just wash like normal
Never heart tip #13 before! Thank you! These are really good tips! Something I would add to every car is a bic lighter! So many kits have candles but absolutely no lighter. It could save your life!
I used Fusso Coat for the paint, Glaco for the glass and max guard for the wheels. I’ll do a chemical decon every 2 months to keep the paint and glass coatings in good order and reapply the wheel wax at the same time. We don’t normally get bad winters in southern England, it’s the salt spreaders that are the biggest pain in the exhaust
I keep a bottle of ps epic mixed with 2oz of mckees graphine rinseless mixed in and certain mf towels in the truck. I gotta say it keeps snow, ice, and water off my worry list. I haven't used my wipers in the mountains/winter climate at all. I'm impressed with combining older and newer products. It's just a lot of fun and I blame you, Pan, for all the fun I'm having 🤣🤘
Thanks Igor! There aren't ways to prevent ice and snow, but you can certainly make it easier to clean/remove if you have protection on the paint, and you can use a fabric protectant on the inside arches if they are in a fabric/felt material, or a plastic coating if they are in plastic.
Great tips. I have Husky floor mats that go up the sides and the drivers mat completly covers the space under the gas pedal and completly covers the dead pedal, makes to hard for the salt and snow to reach the carpets. I avoid the wax undercoatings as if there is any rust they just cover up the rust and it can still spread under the wax coating. I've been using Corrosion Free for my last two vehicles and rust has not been an issue. My snow brush has a silicon head on it and use the techinque that you mentioned, leaving about a quarter of an inch. Once again great tips.

Pan, I just picked up a carbon fiber spoiler for my SS sedan. It has been clear coated and polished. Do you have any videos of products to protect it from UV rays etc... would love to see a video on tips for storing a car for the winter
My entire channel is dedicated to car detailing, so yes I have many videos on protecting the paint. It depends on what protection you want to apply. A wax, a sealant or a ceramic coating? I have a popular video explaining the differences between the types of protection here: th-cam.com/video/4ejfPHan3k4/w-d-xo.html Here's a tutorial on how to wax your car: th-cam.com/video/KZjiPcsPBrA/w-d-xo.html And a tutorial on how to apply a ceramic coating: th-cam.com/video/sqQYVjxFqK0/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Pan, thank you. I've been enjoying the channel for some time now. I was looking for protecting carbon fiber specifically but I guess if it's been clear coated it's the same as the rest of the paint correct?

I've noticed no one really checks their tire pressures, especially the customers at my dealership, also the way the electrical systems are on VWs if the battery is getting weak we get a lot of random system issues not just starting issues. These systems are very voltage sensitive and will set faults.
Hi Pan. Tip 5 (checking tyre pressure) if the owner has changed the original tyres for something different best to check psi on the tyre) as I made the mistake and under inflated my tyres for a couple of weeks after buying the car. See you on the next one.
Interesting comment. The PSI indicator ON the tire is the Maximum pressure the tire can hold safely. This is not the recommended tire pressure for driving, big difference. If you follow your advice you will be driving on severely overinflated tires resulting in irregular wear and early tire failure. Unless where you live they also include the recommended PSI on the sidewall, not so in Canada.
Never rely on the PSI rating on the tire. That's the maximum pressure the tire can safely hold. What you should be doing is looking for the proper tire pressure on the tag on the door frame on the driver side, or in your user's manual to see what the manufacturer's recommended pressure is.
I switched to one of those foam snow brushes from Garant that Canadian Tire sells. They work great and are fairly gentle on the paint. I apply Silicone Lube to the weather stripping & spray lithium grease on the hinges at every oil change year round.
Loving the video Pan Was wondering, would you be able to do a video about how to maintain your detailing equipment and how to store it away especially during the winter e.g draining pressure washer, hoses etc and putting them away to avoid them freezing up and basically any other equipment that will get effected by the winter temperatures
I live in CO and am doing my first complete paint correction and Avalon King ceramic coating. Is it adequate to wait 48 hrs to cure before taking it out on snow, slush, and the scoria they spread on the road?
It is CRUCIAL to let that specific coating dry and cure for 48 hours without exposure to the elements, rain, moisture, snow, etc. And make sure you apply two coats, 1 hour between coats. I have a tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/Rgli6VNLsK4/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks! I've watched virtual all of your videos and the products and process I use almost exclusively come from your recommendations. Applied 2 coats and will definitely wait 48 hours. Avalon King suggests waiting longer if possible, but my wife is getting impatient as I started this complete detailing and paint correction process 7 days ago!
No. To remove wax, a quick machine polish alone will be enough (after you wash the car). Polishing (mechanical abrasion) is what ensures 100% removal of any protection. To wash the car, you can use a stripping shampoo that helps to start the breaking down process of older waxes, like this one: amzn.to/3VkzH8j
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks, one more question would you suggest carpro descale for a nice strip wash ? Or also adams not sure if they work around the same or if car pros is way better than adams
Hi Pan, love the channel been watching for a while now. I sold my golf R and now have a BMW M4 Competition. I am going to polish it with a DA polisher but just wanted to know can it be too cold to polish as it’s the winter over here in Scotland? Then I am applying a 5 year ceramic coating from pyramid car care a British brand I use quite often on friends cars. Have a nice Christmas Pan. And thanks for your support with your videos.
Hi Gary! Congrats on your new M4! Sweet ride. What color is yours? Ideally you always want to detail in temperatures above 10C especially to apply a ceramic coating.

@@PanTheOrganizer Hey it’s Yas Marina Blue. I have been following your channel for best part of 4 years now. Found you on TH-cam when I was looking for tips on how to apply a ceramic coating and now love watching your videos. My temperature is around 7 degrees here in Scotland. What issues would I come across if I tried to give it a polish then apply a ceramic coating? The coating I use says I need to remove it’s extremely quickly bottle says 15-20 seconds for flash time!!!
Great tips man! When you mentioned the wiper blades you reminded me of a great question for you. What the heck would you recommend for keeping the top part looking clean and dressed? Mine always look dull and flat and would prefer them to have that fresh new look! Hyper dressing or perhaps a vinyl/rubber conditioner? For reference I run BOSCH wipers on all my cars.
You mean the top part (exposed part) of the rubber blades? Yeah just use a plastics dressing. But I don't do that. I just keep them clean and change the blades every year or so.
I learned something new thank you Pan! The silicone spray is gonna be great. I was watching the rag company and diamond body protech has a coating that prevents frost and I'm debating that
It’s the law in my province (Quebec). I don’t know about other provinces. But it saves lives. Summer tires with 30 inches of snow and ice makes zero sense.
Always enjoy the vids. Living in Virginia, our winters are mild but we get lots of road salts and calcium that attack’s the paint. I’ve typically used a paste wax for more paint protection because of that. With my new ceramic coating, I’m topping with TW Flex Wax. Do I still need the paste wax?
Pan I had a question and I thought I'd ask here in your latest video. so I just received my first Gallon of "Iron remover" I wanted to get "Meguiar's Wheel & Paint Iron Decon" but I went with "Adam's Iron remover" because it was cheaper and faster to ship Anyway my question: After opening the gallon and refilling my bottle, now the whole room where I store my iron remover (Gallon container) STINKS. I tried cleaning the gallon with APC and some Alcohol which helped a bit but it still reeks. Any tips on how to store iron remover? now I have the gallon wrapped in a couple of plastic bags which helps but not completely eliminates the smell
I don't know that tire, but a quick research on the Continental website says it's an all-season tire. So it's not a dedicated winter tire. Don't you have a law in Ontario that states it's mandatory to have winter tires at a certain point? We have that law in Quebec. But as you live in Canada, you guys get pretty crazy winters like we do in Quebec, so I would highly recommend that you get proper dedicated winter tires.

Love the choice of a topic! About to watch the video to see if you put something on door gaskets to prevent from freezing. EDIT 1: Which fabric protector do you recommend? [Value for money please, 303 one is about 15 USD and only lasted for floor mats for 1.5 cars] EDIT 2: tip 13 for the win! I used Sonax Rubber Pin [Sonax sztyft do uszczelek {PL} ]
Good timely video. Nice. Yeah winter is terrible brutal. When I go to touchless wash, I use the water wand only to rinse off the road salt. Any recommendations I could use to "pre spray" the road salt with a foamer or pump sprayer before rinsing? Here comes Wisconsin winter. I hate it!
Another very helpful video! Do you ever apply paint protection film? We have lots of gravel/rocks on roads in winter in Colorado mountains and PPF was recommended to me.
Hi Paul. I am just not a fan of the look or feel or PPF. Plus, as I get a brand new car every three years, and do low yearly mileage, scratches and stone chips are of no concern to me. My cars are always pristine when I bring them back to the dealership. But for people who want absolute protection from stone chips and scratches, PPF is the only solution. I would apply a ceramic coating on top afterwards, for the best of both worlds. I have a video on that here: th-cam.com/video/7RCgqdGrvrA/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizerthank you! I’ve never been a fan of PPF either. I prefer gloss of paint and not having to deal with reapplying PPF as it doesn’t last forever. I recently took delivery of my 2022 Mustang Mach 1 and have several friends telling me PPF is a must in our state. 🤷♂️. Thank you for the link to your other video.
You can usually use the same coating as for exterior plastics, but check with the specific coating you purchase to see if it can be applied to powder coated surfaces.
@@PanTheOrganizer thats the one! Im getting a new car. Can you help me by checking and confirmimg that its for paint only? Maybe run some tests. Its a good product so it wont be a waste either.

Soo much better to drive on.
Absolutely. And in many provinces and states this is now the law. Like here where I live, in the province of Quebec (Canada), winter tires are mandatory as of December 1st at the latest. Given the harsh winters we have, this law saves many lives.

Pan! Help a brother out! I’m trying to get more of an outreach to spread my videos! I hate to be THAT GUY but we see you as a father figure! Let me know how I’m doing!
I've long thought that cleaning products for use in sub-freezing temperatures would be the next "front" of development, since so few people have access to a heated garage or wash bay. Keeping a vehicle clean in the winter is really the ultimate challenge.
I also spray the silicone lubricant on the hood latch and hood hinges.

This is so good. Just walked in 8°F snow to put wiper wash liquid in my car. Who knew that just buying a car wasn't enough?! xD TIL, wiper washer != Anti-freeze for the engine.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Pan! Thanks for the useful advices!
Thanks for the feedback Jaz!
My brother used to spray his car with Waxoyl just before winter, then clean it off in the spring. It was black by then! Now he puts his car in to a detailer to have it ceramic coated every couple of years, and does regular washes.
A ceramic coating is my favourite form of paint protection for sure.
These are fantastic, very practical winter tips, Pan! One tip I can add, following Tip 15 regarding the battery is to keep in the vehicle a Boost Pack such as the one I picked up from Canadian Tire for $148: the NOCO Genius GB40 Boost Plus Booster Pack/Jump Starter, 1000-Amp, 12V. Super handy when in a pinch if your battery accidentally drained or if you need a boost or to help anyone else in a bind. Happy Holidays and stay safe!

Winter tyres I fit to our rear wheel drive BMW's in the UK, but some people recommend due to the milder winters here to fit all season in the winter and fit summer tyres in the summer months.
Big thanks for doing this video. Happy too give u some heads up about what subject so talk about.
Thanks for the feedback Kim!
Great tips that I follow as a fellow Canadian.
Cool! Where in Canada are you from?
I just wrap a microfiber towel around my snow brush works great!
I would really appreciate if you could make a video on winter outdoor washing. You have few vids of winter washing inside your nice heated garage, but for many of us that live in the cold climates, who do all their washing in the driveway, lacking a garage, it would be great to see some safe simplified winter washing methods, thanks for all the great content.
Unfortunately there is no way for me to do that, as we are below freezing temperatures here in Montreal in the winter. I can't do a wash outside when the weather is -10C or -20C (14F to -4F). There is no miracle solution to freezing weather. You need a heated garage, or you can bring your vehicle to a professional detailer and have them take care of it for you.
If you live in a climate where winter is gentler (say 10C to 4C or 50F to 40F), then you could watch this video: th-cam.com/video/yTsUSDD0Zzk/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you, that was a great video. Looks like I'll need to keep making the best of the days above freezing when they occur with my 2 bucket wash.
You can’t if your outside any temps are below freezing even if you use hot water it’s still going to freeze if it’s above freezing temps just wash like normal
All solid advice! and I will say I do every one of these, especially not clearing the snow right to the paint for that very reason. Thanks pan! 👍🇨🇦
😁👍🏻
Realy enjoy your educational videos
Glad you like them! What's your favourite video on my channel so far?
Never heart tip #13 before! Thank you! These are really good tips! Something I would add to every car is a bic lighter! So many kits have candles but absolutely no lighter. It could save your life!
Thanks Gary!
I used Fusso Coat for the paint, Glaco for the glass and max guard for the wheels. I’ll do a chemical decon every 2 months to keep the paint and glass coatings in good order and reapply the wheel wax at the same time.
We don’t normally get bad winters in southern England, it’s the salt spreaders that are the biggest pain in the exhaust
Good picks on the sealant and glass coating! :)
Amazing video! Would be interesting to see how to prepare a Convertible for winter storing
Just ordered a 50lb bag of snow melt from home depot. Might as well have them deliver it. I use a seed spreader to disperse it over my driveway
That works!
I keep a bottle of ps epic mixed with 2oz of mckees graphine rinseless mixed in and certain mf towels in the truck. I gotta say it keeps snow, ice, and water off my worry list. I haven't used my wipers in the mountains/winter climate at all. I'm impressed with combining older and newer products. It's just a lot of fun and I blame you, Pan, for all the fun I'm having 🤣🤘
Hehe thanks for sharing Gregory!
Cars need all the protection you can get driving on the Northway in Upstate NY! I call it the Saltway!
This is a really good video
Thanks Juan!
Great and useful TIPs. Thank You!
If there any Tips for preventing ICE and SNOW collecting on side skirts and inside arches?
Thanks Igor! There aren't ways to prevent ice and snow, but you can certainly make it easier to clean/remove if you have protection on the paint, and you can use a fabric protectant on the inside arches if they are in a fabric/felt material, or a plastic coating if they are in plastic.
Great tips. I have Husky floor mats that go up the sides and the drivers mat completly covers the space under the gas pedal and completly covers the dead pedal, makes to hard for the salt and snow to reach the carpets.
I avoid the wax undercoatings as if there is any rust they just cover up the rust and it can still spread under the wax coating. I've been using Corrosion Free for my last two vehicles and rust has not been an issue.
My snow brush has a silicon head on it and use the techinque that you mentioned, leaving about a quarter of an inch.
Once again great tips.
Thanks Scott, and thanks for sharing your tips with us!

Merci pour les conseils. Si je ne peux pas laver mon véhicule à l’intérieur pendant l’hiver, est-ce une mauvaise idée de laver à l’extérieur lorsqu’il fait -10 degrés.
Merci pour tous les trucs et astuces.
Il n'est jamais recommandé de faire du detailing dans des températures sous les 10C. Encore moins dans des températures sous zéro.
Pan, I just picked up a carbon fiber spoiler for my SS sedan. It has been clear coated and polished. Do you have any videos of products to protect it from UV rays etc... would love to see a video on tips for storing a car for the winter
My entire channel is dedicated to car detailing, so yes I have many videos on protecting the paint. It depends on what protection you want to apply. A wax, a sealant or a ceramic coating?
I have a popular video explaining the differences between the types of protection here: th-cam.com/video/4ejfPHan3k4/w-d-xo.html

@@PanTheOrganizer Pan, thank you. I've been enjoying the channel for some time now. I was looking for protecting carbon fiber specifically but I guess if it's been clear coated it's the same as the rest of the paint correct?
Correct. ;)

I've noticed no one really checks their tire pressures, especially the customers at my dealership, also the way the electrical systems are on VWs if the battery is getting weak we get a lot of random system issues not just starting issues. These systems are very voltage sensitive and will set faults.
Yeah it's important to check tire pressures regularly.
luckily I am in California ,not much to do for winter. I grew up in New England so I can sympathize !!
Lucky you living in California!! When I went to the Monterey Car Week in the summer of 2021, the temperature was pure bliss for me!! 68-75F every day!
@@PanTheOrganizer it's beautiful down there. I am in San Francisco area. Just matenence washed the X5MC. Wow suvs take a while to wash
Like always, great tips Pan! Awesome work👍🏻👌🏻.
Thanks Konsta! :)
@@PanTheOrganizer 👍🏻❤️
Hi Pan. Tip 5 (checking tyre pressure) if the owner has changed the original tyres for something different best to check psi on the tyre) as I made the mistake and under inflated my tyres for a couple of weeks after buying the car. See you on the next one.
Interesting comment. The PSI indicator ON the tire is the Maximum pressure the tire can hold safely. This is not the recommended tire pressure for driving, big difference. If you follow your advice you will be driving on severely overinflated tires resulting in irregular wear and early tire failure. Unless where you live they also include the recommended PSI on the sidewall, not so in Canada.
Never rely on the PSI rating on the tire. That's the maximum pressure the tire can safely hold. What you should be doing is looking for the proper tire pressure on the tag on the door frame on the driver side, or in your user's manual to see what the manufacturer's recommended pressure is.
I switched to one of those foam snow brushes from Garant that Canadian Tire sells. They work great and are fairly gentle on the paint. I apply Silicone Lube to the weather stripping & spray lithium grease on the hinges at every oil change year round.
Thx for advice...... winter îs coming ..... 😉
Hehehe. Hopefully I don't see any White Walkers from Game of Thrones anywhere near my house!
Loving the video Pan
Was wondering, would you be able to do a video about how to maintain your detailing equipment and how to store it away especially during the winter e.g draining pressure washer, hoses etc and putting them away to avoid them freezing up and basically any other equipment that will get effected by the winter temperatures
Thanks Abid! Great suggestion!
@@PanTheOrganizer sweettt!
Hopefully that’s soon before the winter closes (wishful thinking 😝)
I live in CO and am doing my first complete paint correction and Avalon King ceramic coating. Is it adequate to wait 48 hrs to cure before taking it out on snow, slush, and the scoria they spread on the road?
It is CRUCIAL to let that specific coating dry and cure for 48 hours without exposure to the elements, rain, moisture, snow, etc.
And make sure you apply two coats, 1 hour between coats.
I have a tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/Rgli6VNLsK4/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks! I've watched virtual all of your videos and the products and process I use almost exclusively come from your recommendations. Applied 2 coats and will definitely wait 48 hours. Avalon King suggests waiting longer if possible, but my wife is getting impatient as I started this complete detailing and paint correction process 7 days ago!
😂👍🏻
I had a question on wax removal would you suggest super clean diluted to remove older wax? So then later polish the car
No. To remove wax, a quick machine polish alone will be enough (after you wash the car). Polishing (mechanical abrasion) is what ensures 100% removal of any protection.
To wash the car, you can use a stripping shampoo that helps to start the breaking down process of older waxes, like this one: amzn.to/3VkzH8j
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks, one more question would you suggest carpro descale for a nice strip wash ? Or also adams not sure if they work around the same or if car pros is way better than adams
CarPro is a more powerful shampoo.
Hi Pan, love the channel been watching for a while now. I sold my golf R and now have a BMW M4 Competition. I am going to polish it with a DA polisher but just wanted to know can it be too cold to polish as it’s the winter over here in Scotland? Then I am applying a 5 year ceramic coating from pyramid car care a British brand I use quite often on friends cars. Have a nice Christmas Pan. And thanks for your support with your videos.
Hi Gary! Congrats on your new M4! Sweet ride. What color is yours?
Ideally you always want to detail in temperatures above 10C especially to apply a ceramic coating. Ideally you would be working in 20C temperatures.

@@PanTheOrganizer Hey it’s Yas Marina Blue. I have been following your channel for best part of 4 years now. Found you on TH-cam when I was looking for tips on how to apply a ceramic coating and now love watching your videos. My temperature is around 7 degrees here in Scotland. What issues would I come across if I tried to give it a polish then apply a ceramic coating? The coating I use says I need to remove it’s extremely quickly bottle says 15-20 seconds for flash time!!!
Great tips man! When you mentioned the wiper blades you reminded me of a great question for you. What the heck would you recommend for keeping the top part looking clean and dressed? Mine always look dull and flat and would prefer them to have that fresh new look! Hyper dressing or perhaps a vinyl/rubber conditioner? For reference I run BOSCH wipers on all my cars.
You mean the top part (exposed part) of the rubber blades? Yeah just use a plastics dressing. But I don't do that. I just keep them clean and change the blades every year or so.
Hi what’s your opinion on using car covers in winter for cars that are not garaged.. I see they are mixed views on covers scratching paint work
Well done
Thanks Sunny!
I learned something new thank you Pan! The silicone spray is gonna be great.
I was watching the rag company and diamond body protech has a coating that prevents frost and I'm debating that
I am looking forward in testing the Diamond Pro Tech products soon.
@@PanTheOrganizer from what I've read and heard, you will not be disappointed
So in Canada you have to buy an entire winter tire set?? What if you’re broke?
It’s the law in my province (Quebec). I don’t know about other provinces. But it saves lives. Summer tires with 30 inches of snow and ice makes zero sense.
Hi Pan would you be willing to do a zoom call so I can talk to about detailing and business
Always enjoy the vids. Living in Virginia, our winters are mild but we get lots of road salts and calcium that attack’s the paint. I’ve typically used a paste wax for more paint protection because of that. With my new ceramic coating, I’m topping with TW Flex Wax. Do I still need the paste wax?
Don’t apply waxes on top of a ceramic coating. Flex Wax is all you’ll need. No need for a paste wax.
Pan I had a question and I thought I'd ask here in your latest video.
so I just received my first Gallon of "Iron remover" I wanted to get "Meguiar's Wheel & Paint Iron Decon" but I went with "Adam's Iron remover" because it was cheaper and faster to ship
Anyway my question:
After opening the gallon and refilling my bottle, now the whole room where I store my iron remover (Gallon container) STINKS.
I tried cleaning the gallon with APC and some Alcohol which helped a bit but it still reeks. Any tips on how to store iron remover?
now I have the gallon wrapped in a couple of plastic bags which helps but not completely eliminates the smell
I don’t have an answer to that unfortunately.
What products to clean and prep a snow blower for the winter?
Another tip is to use an fuel with cleaning properties
are ceramic topper sprays (not ceramic coatings) typically more durable than paint sealants?
The short answer is yes.
I am in Toronto and I don’t drive daily. Would I be okay with Continental DWS06+ and xDrive?
I don't know that tire, but a quick research on the Continental website says it's an all-season tire. So it's not a dedicated winter tire. Don't you have a law in Ontario that states it's mandatory to have winter tires at a certain point? We have that law in Quebec.
But as you live in Canada, you guys get pretty crazy winters like we do in Quebec, so I would highly recommend that you get proper dedicated winter tires.
Master 🙏

Good timely video. Nice. Yeah winter is terrible brutal. When I go to touchless wash, I use the water wand only to rinse off the road salt. Any recommendations I could use to "pre spray" the road salt with a foamer or pump sprayer before rinsing? Here comes Wisconsin winter. I hate it!

Great tips brother! Y’all use salt in the great white north right?
Yeah they use road salt on the roads in the province where I live (Quebec) in Canada. I'm not sure about other provinces in the country though.
why does the windsheild after you clean it, show the shapes the wipers left...i cant clean it to make this disappear? .
You can machine polish the glass to help remove those streaks. I have a tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/yMi5PtyqUI8/w-d-xo.html
Another very helpful video! Do you ever apply paint protection film? We have lots of gravel/rocks on roads in winter in Colorado mountains and PPF was recommended to me.
Hi Paul. I am just not a fan of the look or feel or PPF. Plus, as I get a brand new car every three years, and do low yearly mileage, scratches and stone chips are of no concern to me. My cars are always pristine when I bring them back to the dealership.
But for people who want absolute protection from stone chips and scratches, PPF is the only solution. I would apply a ceramic coating on top afterwards, for the best of both worlds. I have a video on that here: th-cam.com/video/7RCgqdGrvrA/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizerthank you! I’ve never been a fan of PPF either. I prefer gloss of paint and not having to deal with reapplying PPF as it doesn’t last forever. I recently took delivery of my 2022 Mustang Mach 1 and have several friends telling me PPF is a must in our state. 🤷♂️. Thank you for the link to your other video.
Congrats on your new Mach 1!! Sweet ride. What color is it?
Hi Pan, I have powder coated running boards and was curious if I need to protect them even further? If so, what would you recommend using?
You can usually use the same coating as for exterior plastics, but check with the specific coating you purchase to see if it can be applied to powder coated surfaces.
Check the spare tire pressure too! :D
Good point Emiko!
Pan, what advice do you have for removing snow from a car that’s coated?
Same thing as mentioned in this video. ;)
