I got to say it was a pleasure working with you Rick, my car looks amazing, I keep popping out to the garage to look at it under the lights. Your attention to detail is second to none.
I don't know how you get anything done with that car in your garage. I'd be permanently planted in front of it with a hot cup of coffee. Take care Simon.
That is truly one incredible looking Renault. European only machine? Rally car homologation? I've never seen one of those before and didn't even know it existed. A real collectors item i'm sure. And that V6 must really have that thing screamin' going down the road. It's hard to believe that thing is a 2002 and is 19 years old. It looks modern in design. A machine any owner would be proud of.
Ricks smashing it out the park love the sq5 details but an integrale lancing now v6 Renault accompanied with 1st class editing and music he’s moving into the top league of detailing videos on you tube no messing no nonsense good quality content 👍
Wow!! Silver isn’t the easiest of colours to get really popping reflections. Under those lights it’s looking awesome! And who could imagine the sound of tyre dressing being applied could be so therapeutic, or is that just me...😆
I'm sure is was a long weekend for you, but you make it look easy and beautiful when you're done. My first car was a brand new 83 Renault LeCar. LOVED IT!!
Oh, the behind the scenes is definitely not always pretty! I had a buddy in high school with a Le Car. We used to pile in there and stand up through the retractable roof!
Sat and watched the Vid with a nice cup of Coffee while'st the Microfibers where washing. What a COOL Car. I really like the mix of subtle yet Racey design. RAD once again!
Great little car cleanup. I really like the Fireball foam...really grabby and thick. And as always, love the tire cleaning shots and the reverse foam shots. Love your videos.
Those tires exploded when the cleaner hit them! Thanks for tuning in Barbara. I'm sure we will cross paths on Eric's upcoming livestream this Saturday.
A very special car for sure. And as the winter is long hard and cold I appriciate your vids even more. It is a way to escape from our snow outside and just hang around in your garage. Some rally nice and unique cars even if I am a bit ssuspcious about italian and french quality ;)
Quality is a relative term. I will say the Renault had some very clever and contemporary design elements. The light that laminates the license plate was set into the bumper aiming up, the water spigot for the rear wiper was incorporated into the rear wing, and a few other clever little features that impressed me as I made my way around (and around and around) the car. The paint on the Renault was really nice as well.
You really do have to love working in your new redesigned Garage, pumping out these Videos for us on a weekly basis. Really do enjoy the effort you put in Rick, have a great week
Another great vid and great car Rick, thanks! I drove a mate’s Clio Turbo back in the early 90s. That was really nice, plus our wives could sit in the back seat. I had the Golf GTi 16V, another friend has Peugeot 205 1.9 GTi, great days. Btw, I still have not found anywhere to buy those bucket dollies here in UK.
Sorry to hear you can't track down the bucket dollies. I think one of mine is from Adam's, and the other two are from Grit Guard. Like this: amzn.to/39xwwEL
Fantastic car , I’ve had the pleasure of being a passenger in 2 of these. Both the mark 1 version & mk 2. I was fortunate enough to work at a Renault main dealer here in the UK during the later 90’s , early 2000. The dealer principal owned both the vehicles. The mk1 being identical to this one & the mk2 being a blue version. So it’s always nice to see cars you don’t see everyday & they bring back memories. Love the vid as always Rick 👍
Yes, I love how certain cars trigger good memories for me. My parents had a T-Bird when I was in my early teens and one just like it popped up on "Bring a Trailer". I am tempted to grab it just for the sentimentality factor. This is a MK 1 if I am not mistaken. Do you know if I am correct?
@@RADGarage yes it’s the phase 1 Clio V6. The phase 2 had the badge in the grill not on the bonnet. All phase 1’s were silver if my memories is correct. Phase 2’s has various colour options.
Another great job as always my friend. The car came out great. Video's are always relaxing as I'm busting my butt trying to finish my days worth of work!
Wow, just wow! The cool cars lately have been a blessing, but your detaling work and editing is what makes these videos to what they are: amazing! I got stressed out today over my study, but after such a video, I am fully relaxed ánd ready to kick back again. My favourite shot was at 9:42, I'm not lying when I say my eyes widened and my mouth opened for a second, such a great shot!!
I'm glad you found the video rewarding. I always try, as you know, to show the satisfying side of detailing in my work. Keep working hard in your studies! 💪
Hi Rick, fantastic video. So relaxing to watch. Great car, I used to ride a normal Clio in the early 20, same colour, this was my Dream car! What a great result, so glossy, Very nice job.
Glad you enjoyed it. It really is a quality paint on that Renault. I wanted to be as least aggressive as possible while providing the most reward - I think I hit that balance real well.
Glad you like them! At times, I wish I could just be happy with setting up the tripod and doing my thing without worrying about capturing each shot, but I just can't do it. I need that fluid motion and unique angles. It's what makes the process rewarding for me. Thanks for noticing and appreciating my methods!
New to your channel and cant get enough, fantastic filming and editing. I love that fact that when I watch your videos its time to relax and chill to the music.
Beautifully constructed video as always Rick, and an amazing job on that gorgeous Clio! I used to see so many of those cars around when I was a boy, they’re certainly a rare car nowadays but still just as good looking as I remember them. 👌
@@RADGarage one thing we’re good at is creating amazing cars. Another of my favourites was the Lancia Delta Integrale, such a beautifully designed car and so powerful for its time. It also handled like a dream! At the moment in the UK, the classic fast Fords such as the Sierra cosworth or the Mk1 escort go for insane amounts of money! I wish I’d of kept my Mk1 Fiesta now 😬🤦🏻♂️
@@RADGarage I hadn’t but I have now! Omg that is just a work of art! I’m so jealous that you got to work on that beauty! I bet you thoroughly enjoyed every minute of that one!😍
@@RADGarage Not at all, cat's sleeping on my lap and my eyes glued to the tv. Satisfying to see those dirty tires turn like-new again. And that snow foam was crazy good! So many intricate areas of that car I liked seeing you use 3 polishers to get the job done. Right tool right job!
Thanks. A guy ripped into me last video (comment since deleted) because my style was too cinematic and the music hurt his ears. I don't care, this is the style I like and I'm glad I'm not alone! Thanks again.
@@RADGarage can’t remember, but shortly after you started. I’m blessed to have found you and I have learned so much from you, keep up the awesome work my friends👍
We are fortunate that the government allows us to import cars older than 15 years with little to no fuss. We will be seeing more and more European rarities in my opinion.
Funny how it's renamedLutécia. Lutécia/Lutetia was Paris name under the Roman empire. The clio was renamed Lutécia for Japan market for what I remembered. Great video, as always.
You are correct! The Japan market already had a car called the "Clio" so Renault gave this the different name. I miss my years of living in Tokyo just because of all the amazing cars I would see on a daily basis. I had a favourite Starbucks on a pretty major road and I would sit there for hours just watching the most amazing cars go by.
I find it quite inspiring to work on these special cars to our market. I will admit they make me a bit nervous though since they are so rare and special.
I think I had a diecast toy rally version of the Renault 5. That's an AMAZING first car. My first car was a 1982 Plymouth Horizon with a whopping 96 bhp.
My second car was a turbocharged Shelby inspired Dodge Omni GLH. It had just under 150bhp and it was a real rocket off the line. Very dangerous as well. But, we both obviously survived!
@@RADGarage This is the most important thing Rick. And now we are petrolheads forever. After some other fast cars i became now husband and father... But one time my dream come true!👍
I prefer the Wheel & Tire Cleaner straight up. I do dilute when I'm getting low or working on wheels I'm a bit worried about but I don't dilute it too much. 2 parts cleaner to 1 part water is about as far as I go. It just becomes less and less effective and satisfying once you go more than that. I have an IK foamer but have never had much success getting it to work properly, so one day I just tried the little IK alkaline and it works great. The bubbles are just as good as foam imho.
I have had such good results with the foam that I haven't felt the need to introduce another pre-spray step. Our friends in some European nations get some really nasty road tar as part of the winter road maintenance in their centuries, but here I find quality snow foams have no problem cutting though the salt and dirt our cars are subjected to.
Ethos has a new product out now called Detox, but I haven't tried it yet. I think it is similar to Defy with more cleaning abilities, but don't quote me on that. I'm hoping to get my hands on it soon. (EDIT: "Resist" not "Detox")
Ha! Thanks. That AR 390SS has been a steadfast workhorse for me. I may have something new and exciting news on the pressure washer to share very soon though! 😉
I was just telling my husband about the one my friend's parents had then gave to her. Oh my goodness. That thing could not go over 35 mph and I honestly don't know how it didn't explode at some point. The engine had the funniest sound. Oh gosh it was the perfect first car for a high school kid!
@@txdeedee7783 Those cars were the worst. They were built in the USA though, which is why they sold a lot of them. I think it was call the Renault Alliance. The engine sound was terrible!!
@@txdeedee7783 it was this god awful gold color. It was a stick shift and would ding when you needed to shift gears. Man, I haven’t thought about that car in years!!
Yeah, Renault had a bit of run in Canada, but didn't really sell well. I had a buddy with a Le Car in high school that was "cool" but not a car I really wanted to own. Back then, we were just glad to have a car though!
I think that is mostly due to the video aspect. I usually shoot my video of the polish/correction process when I am just getting the compound spread over the panel I'm working on, so that tends to be quicker. Once I'm in the zone, I don't want to be setting up the camera, so the majority of the polish footage you will see will not be the slow, methodical, cross-hatch pattern. Then, like you say, this is a very light polish I'm doing on this car so that also has something to do with the speed I'm working at. I hope that all makes sense. Thanks for the question.
Why do I have to choose! LOL I have only used the Reset once as a contact wash and I loved it. The GSF has been used twice now as a foam and it was wicked as well.
E quem disse que carro na cor prata não brilha? Tá aí a prova Produtos da linha car pro chegaram forte por aqui mas com preços muito elevados A Vonnix aqui do Brasil exporta seus produtos pra 32 países Se um dia vc tiver oportunidade de conseguir algum produto da Vonnix gostaria de ver vc testar por aí Parabéns e sucesso sempre Abraço Luciano Jau SP Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
I think you have mentioned Vonnix previously, I don't think it has any representation here in Canada, but I will keep my eye out for it. We have way too much choice here if I'm being completely honest. We need no more products!
I am a firm believer that there's a product for every situation. In this situation, the car didn't require extensive correction but just a polish with a slight "bite". I had heard people speak highly of the combo and I think it worked well in this instance.
I got to say it was a pleasure working with you Rick, my car looks amazing, I keep popping out to the garage to look at it under the lights. Your attention to detail is second to none.

Wow!! Silver isn’t the easiest of colours to get really popping reflections. Under those lights it’s looking awesome! And who could imagine the sound of tyre dressing being applied could be so therapeutic, or is that just me...😆
I find the sound of anything being cleaned to be therapeutic. This car was in really nice shape prior to the detail, but it's a real showstopper now!
You were accurate Rick when you told me that I would likely enjoy the music selections. Always enjoy relaxing and watching your videos.
Music is quite possibly my favourite part of all of this.

Damn, the tires needed some love.
I thought something had gone wrong at first! The cleaner turned some weird colours right out of the gate!
@@RADGarage ...noticed that too. Thought, that's some pretty dang strong cleaner to turn brown on contact. lol... Great job my friend! Cheers...
Thanks Rich.
@@RADGarage Ha! I thought you were using a new cleaner at first!
@Barbara Me too! I had to recheck the bottle to make sure it was wheel cleaner. 😱
Great content! What ratio do you dilute the Adams tire and wheel cleaner in your Alkaline ? And why uses the bubbles instead of foam ?
I prefer the Wheel & Tire Cleaner straight up. I do dilute when I'm getting low or working on wheels I'm a bit worried about but I don't dilute it too much. 2 parts cleaner to 1 part water is about as far as I go.

I have an IK foamer but have never had much success getting it to work properly, so one day I just tried the little IK alkaline and it works great. The bubbles are just as good as foam imho.
@@RADGarage thanks! Will try the little IK !
Do you use any degreasers or TFR before foaming? So if the snow foam doesn’t remove all the stubborn road grime you don’t pick it up in your mitt.
I have had such good results with the foam that I haven't felt the need to introduce another pre-spray step. Our friends in some European nations get some really nasty road tar as part of the winter road maintenance in their centuries, but here I find quality snow foams have no problem cutting though the salt and dirt our cars are subjected to.

Everyone should just pitch in and help you buy a kranzle my friend. You truly do deserve it.
Ha! Thanks. That AR 390SS has been a steadfast workhorse for me. I may have something new and exciting news on the pressure washer to share very soon though! 😉
Awesome can’t wait Rick!!!
You're killing it, Rick! My mom had a Renault in like 1985 and it was the worst car ever. This one looks a tad nicer. :)
I was just telling my husband about the one my friend's parents had then gave to her. Oh my goodness. That thing could not go over 35 mph and I honestly don't know how it didn't explode at some point. The engine had the funniest sound. Oh gosh it was the perfect first car for a high school kid!
@@txdeedee7783 Those cars were the worst. They were built in the USA though, which is why they sold a lot of them. I think it was call the Renault Alliance. The engine sound was terrible!!
@@jp2421 yes!!!! Hers was an Encore. And the tires were so small. Lol. What colour was yours??
@@txdeedee7783 it was this god awful gold color. It was a stick shift and would ding when you needed to shift gears. Man, I haven’t thought about that car in years!!
Yeah, Renault had a bit of run in Canada, but didn't really sell well. I had a buddy with a Le Car in high school that was "cool" but not a car I really wanted to own. Back then, we were just glad to have a car though!
Hi Rick, it’s a masterpiece 👍
How many pads would you use on a car that size with a one-step? Thanks 👍
I used one 6", one 3" and one 1". It really didn't require extensive correction. Just a polish with a slight "bite". Thanks for the question.
Fairly quick machine movement is it because it's a aio? So cut is minimal?
I think that is mostly due to the video aspect. I usually shoot my video of the polish/correction process when I am just getting the compound spread over the panel I'm working on, so that tends to be quicker. Once I'm in the zone, I don't want to be setting up the camera, so the majority of the polish footage you will see will not be the slow, methodical, cross-hatch pattern. Then, like you say, this is a very light polish I'm doing on this car so that also has something to do with the speed I'm working at. I hope that all makes sense. Thanks for the question.
Between Reset and GSF, which one you prefer and why?
Why do I have to choose! LOL I have only used the Reset once as a contact wash and I loved it. The GSF has been used twice now as a foam and it was wicked as well.
@@RADGarage my bad!! I apologize, just looking honest opinion and non biased
I feel they are both 'top shelf' products from the limited experience I have had.
veri nice !
Thanks a lot.
1st from UK
Thanks mate!
I was hoping you would remove the rear bumper to polish the muffler that we can see through the grill :D lol
Haha. Next time.
Do they have trucks in Canada?
They do. Lots. They don’t often find their way to my garage since my garage is too shallow to allow me to get to the front and rear end.
E quem disse que carro na cor prata não brilha?

I think you have mentioned Vonnix previously, I don't think it has any representation here in Canada, but I will keep my eye out for it. We have way too much choice here if I'm being completely honest. We need no more products!

I love the support from my viewers!
I never understood why emblems have to be wrapped in tape while polishing. Isn't it gonna make them look shiny as well?
I hear what you are saying. I'm not sure why I do that. I guess everyone else does it so I just follow along!
So, what are your thoughts on the Uno Protect from RUPES? It’s my go to for one step. Amazing shine!
I am a firm believer that there's a product for every situation. In this situation, the car didn't require extensive correction but just a polish with a slight "bite". I had heard people speak highly of the combo and I think it worked well in this instance.
you should clean and polish the masterblaster sometimes
Haha. I should. Part of me wants to get it custom wrapped.
Excellence is a habit, not an act.
That Aristotle had a few good ones!
this should be viral! 🥴
I wish!!
1st from Puerto Rico 👍🇵🇷
Thanks Humberto! 🤘
Perfekt

Thanks. It is cool to be compared to all of those legends!
Une clio 2 v6 un véhicule très rare même chez nous en France pour moi renault est la marque française que je préfère
I didn't even need Google translate to understand your comment. I agree this is a very special export from France.
Stunning gloss and work! Too bad that in my experience durability of LSP is poor
This isn't a daily driver so longevity is not going to be a priority. I find some "Liquid Spray Products" are quite durable as compared to others.
@@RADGarage I agree that some can be. But Beadmaker isn't in that list. Nice work though.
I agree. What's your "go to" if you have to use a LSP?
Creí que quitarías ruedas 🤔
🤷♂️
