We have those Sand Grabba mats. They are now sold under the name No Bull Accessories. They are great. I actually put a rubber mat on top of the Sand Grabba mats so I can quickly remove 90% of any dirt without having to unclip them. Have a great trip to Fraser.
@@JafffaAdventures I haven't been back for 10 years. I hope Kingfisher bay has been knocked down and turned into a swamp again. I hate the place with a passion. The rest of the island I love - especially when it rains.
Of course for us ‘Mexicans’ driving on a beach is just a pipe dream. I’ve also found Armorall on the dash creates a milky film on the windscreen Another informative Vlog👍
Thanks mate, I fully appreciate how lucky we are to be able to drive on such an amazing beach. I did not know that about armorall so thanks for sharing that bit of info. Cheers👍😎
this is the best preventative video I've seen! your articulate measures will pay off I reckon ! fish oil works great too ! definitely gives you something to think about! well done ! hope you enjoy your trip away !
Thanks Brent, you are very kind with your words mate. Fish oil is definitely a good product also, I just find that Tectyl lasts a bit longer that’s all. I’ll do my best to get some footage of our trip away, cheers👍😎
Here in BC Canada they throw salt on the roads in winter at any hint of frost. I use Fluid Film which is too thick to spray on. Also what I do as soon as I can after driving through salt is obviously hose everything off, but also drive down the freeway at high speed in hard rain after it has washed all the salt off the road. That will drench every nook and cranny the hose can't get to. Also, you need to protect inside the frame rails. I use an extend hose from Eastwood frame paint, attach it to a section of plumber snake to give more rigidity, and spray the Fluid Film in through the frame holes.
Really good feedback and tips mate, thanks for sharing. When I lived in Canada (Ontario), I too sprayed down the frame rails. I’ve not done that since living in Australia and I’m really not sure why🤔. Good tips, thanks again mate👍😎
Thanks for the tips Terry. I'm planning a trip to Fraser in September where we plan to stay 10 days. I'll definitely be using some of them and I'll share this video with our friends we're going with. I'm looking forward to seeing your video's on Fraser. Cheers Jim
Good stuff Jim, I trust your companions will get some useful tips as well. I’ll do my best with the Fraser video but the weather is certainly looking sketchy😬. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Jim, I sincerely appreciate it 👍😎
Good tips mate as we are about to start to build in Hervey Bay. I was somewhat disappointed that you didn't lick your dashboard again LOL. Looking forward to the up coming Frasier Island vids as we were there last year but on a day tour which was great for a general overview. Keep the Tectyl side down mate ;)
Thanks Greg, I really appreciate you watching and commenting mate. No lickies this time, Tectyl tastes like crap 😂. I’ll do my best in putting something together on Fraser. Cheers mate 👍😎
I'm about to head for my 2nd K'gari (Fraser) trip in 6moths. Wish I had a hoist, but thanks for the knowledge. Got a few rust spots on suspension springs from the first trip (did a 2" lift the day before, so brand new) and will def use this advise. Cheers!
Awesome tips Terry. We’re going to Fraser in April. Some very useful tips. I’m using Lanotec for my underbody protection. Spraying 4 ways under the car is a great tip, didn’t think of that and I like duct taping the side of the mats. I hate tyre shine as we live in rural vic on a farm and the slightest bit of dust just sticks to it and looks like crap. I’ll putting on the tyre shine on at rainbow beach lol thanks again and enjoy Fraser mate.
Awesome stuff mate, you will love Fraser. Lanotec is great stuff mate, it will serve you well. I hear ya re tyre shine, I do mostly dusty travelling and never use it but for the beach it’s 10/10. Enjoy your trip 👍
@@JafffaAdventures cheers looking forward to our trip. I’ve just finished degreasing the trailer with lanotec citraforce holly heck that stuff cleans up real good 🙂
Now that is next level underbody protection! Great vid mate and some really handy tips there 👍 I bought a 4L lanotec UP a few years back and haven't used it properly yet because I haven't really known how to apply it without a gigantic mess on me. I planned to get a to get a pressure sprayer so good to hear thats the go! I don't have a hoist so I guess it's just time to get grotty 🤪 any tips for applying it on the ground besides overalls respirator and a garage creeper (trolley you lie on) my best idea is to get some jack stands and get all 4 wheels off the ground and that might give me an advantage . . . . I ritually use a Karcher under body sprayer attachment after a beach run which does a decent job
Awesome Ben sounds like you are all over this mate. If I was applying it without a hoist I would do exactly as you stated, get it up in the air as best you can to give yourself an advantage. If you are outside I would apply it on a grassy area. More for your own personal comfort than anything else. The grass will take a bit of a shit kicking from overspray but it will bounce back quickly. If you don’t have a decent prevailing wind, a cheap household fan will even help to blow it downstream of your position. Just remember, no matter how many precautions you take, you will still get covered in crap. Thanks for watching mate, I sincerely appreciate it 👍😎
I don't think the previous owner of my cruiser took those sort of preventative measures. I know what you're saying about dash care products. I still use them though, I just love a shiny dash and the nice smells.
Amazing video thanks so much. Maybe I am looking like a bloke but I cannot find the link to the video that you made about how to clean and care for your vehicle after you have been on the beach. Can you please reply and post it?
No worries Quentin, yep you were searching like a bloke😂😉. Here’s the link mate, thanks for watching and enjoy your stay. Cheers👍😎 How to Wash your 4WD (four wheel drive) after a Beach Run th-cam.com/video/gu6sj2IEYD4/w-d-xo.html
Just came across your channel Terry and have watched a couple of your videos, I have found quite informative and interesting, thanks. I noticed your head unit display is huge. Where did you purchase it from? Did you install it yourself, if so how difficult was it? Has it been reliable and can it take a couple of camera inputs? I do have the rubber type mats you have mentioned and would like to know where you got your mats from.
Thanks for the kind words mate, I sincerely appreciate it. I trust you find something useful here, stay as long as you like or move onto other better creators, the choice is yours mate😎. If you go into the Jafffa Adventures video library and type the word “tesla” into the search bar you will find a couple of videos on the screen. One is an install, and one is a review. Still going strong and I love it. I have one camera input into it but it can take more. I can’t recall where I got the mats from mate, they could be Sand Grabba brand, my memory is just not that good, sorry. Have a great day👍😎
How long before the trip do you spray to let that stuff dry a bit? I find a week with lanotec was needed otherwise it was still really tacky- I used the steel seal , which if let to set properly-the sand does hose off well.
Good to know Steve, thanks for sharing. Three weeks with the Tectyl and it’s pretty good, anything less than that and it’s still pretty tacky. Thanks for watching and sharing mate, I sincerely appreciate it 👍😎
I just read Ben Martrins comment underneath and learned that karcher have an under body cleaner, I didn’t know they existed & will probably grab one👍,thanks Ben. I also have a karcher attachment that I use - karcher pipe cleaning attachment 7.5m long and $80 at Bunnings-insert into my chassis rails and it’s unbelievable the sand that comes out.
I’m not able to do a snorkel specific video only because I have only ever run the Safari snorkel and I have no basis for a comparison. It’s entirely personal opinion, but I don’t like the look of stainless round pipe, it just reminds me of a stove pipe bolted to the side of the car🤮. Regarding the inlet, I prefer forward facing for the Ram effect, but you probably only get a benefit at higher speeds (higher then the velocity of the air entering the snorkel). This is all just supposition however, I have zero empirical evidence supporting my belief. What I am absolutely not a fan of are these stainless snorkels with laser cut logos at the inlet. Some I have seen would cover a full 1/3 of the surface area of the inlet. So if you have a 4” snorkel, you really only have a 2.6” snorkel due to the restrictions at the inlet. Thanks for asking the question mate, cheers👍😎
A minimum of a week, two if you can manage it. That will allow time to seep into all the nooks and crannies, and some time for the volatile compounds to flash off. Cheers mate👍😎
Thanks mate, I appreciate the kind words. Regarding suggestions on how to get things past the wife, you’ll need to seek guidance from someone far more experienced and wise than myself, I’ve got nothing mate😂. Will do my best to capture some special moments on Fraser. Cheers👍😎

Taking those bash plates off first. That's using your head 😅🤣. Another great video, mate. Just curious too; what is your background (job/work)?
Thanks Frank, that’s very kind of you to say. I did a University degree in chemistry and microbiology but I’m in childcare now🤔😂😎

Besides cost what are your thoughts of using inox over tireshine in the engine bay?
I find Inox leaves a thick residue, tyre shine comes off easily with mild soap if you want it to. For that reason, TS for me every time. Cheers😎👍
hey man whats ur opioin on forward facing vs backward facing snorkels. also steel vs plastic? be sick to see a snorkel specific vid

@@JafffaAdventures STOVE PIPE HA! thanks for your answer spesh bout the inlet size
Would CRC Lanocote be suitable to do the underbody?
Sure would mate, no worries at all👍😎
@@JafffaAdventures awesome thanks. How many days prior would you recommend applying?
A minimum of a week, two if you can manage it. That will allow time to seep into all the nooks and crannies, and some time for the volatile compounds to flash off. Cheers mate👍😎
Do you do this before every beach trip or once in a while?
I do this around 2x per year, a little more if I have done a big trip with a lot of dirt driving where the coating gets blasted off. Cheers👍😎
How good is that hoist…………. Mmmmm so how do I get this past the wife……… Great video again champion. Enjoy Frazer
