Great video! Just ordered the steamer anyway have u tried the tornador? I just got one and have been using it non stop lol! It’s great for cleaning pads, mats, interior and any hard to reach spots,
@@MirandaDetailing gyeah! Btw ur absolutely right on getting a “heated” extractor I’ve been using a regular and thought if it’s a hot extractor it’ll be a lot better and ur video made me decide to get one ✌️
Thank you very much for this video, very helpful. I just have a Karcher 1700 on order but heard the Gun and Hose are awful so will need to change that asap. I love Carpro Reset and find with my Ceramic it works awesome
Hi byes it’s the Vx5000. Here is a video we did a while ago on it th-cam.com/video/0gpUaTRiwvQ/w-d-xo.html If you any more questions search out TH-cam…we usually have a video on it.
Hi Phil and Jess. Great information. Thank you. I picked up a set of the orange work stuff brushes from CSW and they are phenomenal quality. One of my favorite tools 👍
Great video!!! Thank you for sharing the types of tools you use. I’m going to get one of the microfiber wheel barrow brushes 👍. Have a super duper day.
I've bounced around different products until I coated my car with CQuartz, now I used mostly Carpro products (Reset, Descale, Reload, Elixir, Perl, InnerQD, Inside and MultiX). I've been very pleased with their results.

If you’re pricing your services correctly you want have to worry about the products you use…in most cases. When starting out using Meguiars and 3D products for the cleaning and polishing aspects will be more cost effective.
My Ryobi electric pressure washer crapped out on me this morning while detailing a Mercedes GL450... no great loss, I got more than my money's worth out of it. ..already picked up another one!
I do this as just my hobbie but I gave myself a upgrade few weeks ago. I setup the nice shelf pressure washer with an Active VE52 and the hose reel so it makes using my presure washer super quick and easy. I also just decided to pickup the SPTA v2 cordless polisher. I have the V1 but that digtal button to select speed drove me nuts after a while. Also the V2 is so much quieter and less vibration then the v1. I opened it up anyway and removed the junk grease and replaced it with some good white lithium grease.
Hey guys with the IK foamer I find mine fouls the white little filters every few times I use it and I fill it with air but it runs out quickly and have to pump it with that cheap plastic pump handle which breaks little small black plastic particles and fowls the filter and have to change them out to get it to spray a good stream of foam. Do you guys get this happen?
Hey Phil…highly informative video. I’ve been vacillating about buying the IK Foamer. I’m a detail hobbyist, but like top quality products and tools…when washing , instead of a dedicated prewash, I put 100ml of GsF and 100ml of Green Star in my MTM foam cannon. In your opinion, is this effective?
As far as cloth interiors... I have found that ONR works wonders on carpets in conjunction with a steamer and extractor. I like P&S Terminator and ONR for cloth seats... steam and extract. I also have a small "cube" portable heater that I will put into the cabin to help drying times.
If it’s not freezing outside, cold air will actually dry the fabric faster (carpet cleaning trick!) because it’ll force the humidity out of the fibers and into the air as long as it’s warmer outside. So crack a window and blast the ac! Or air mover
I am a next level enthusiast. Seriously! I own a 3” and 5” Rupes polishers. I have a steamer and a Tornado tool and compressor. I have a small portable carpet extractor. All the mircofibre you could imagine. But the one piece I would really love to own is a Rupes iBrid polisher, but I just cannot justify the cost. I could have a lot of enjoyment with it, but imo, outrageously priced. Great video.
A great alternative for the Rupes hybrid nano as an enthousiast is the Carbon Collective hex nano. Worth to take a look into it. th-cam.com/video/lO_Y-icNAj0/w-d-xo.html Jim from WhiteDetails was using the Rupes hybrid nano and switched to Carbon Collective hex nano
The Invisible Glass cleaner works wonders with fresh towels and waffle weave towels but two products that have consistently worked for me under the sunny and hot conditions here have been ONR with waffle weave towels and Majestic Solutions glass gel cleaner with waffle weave towels.👌👌👌 Jess wanted to talk but today was shy😄😄

Upgrades help tons. Hi wife
Fresh towels for cleaning glass. I will def keep this in mind as glass can be such a headache.
Good morning ☀️🌻 Love us some new tools and chemicals. We have learned SO much from y'all's TH-cam channel 💯🙏 Have a great day!
i always wondered why cars and trucks in the US always seem to have to be double the size as everywhere else ...
One of the best videos I've seen for upgrading on detailing tools. Well presented!!! 👊 🇨🇦
Thanks Mr and Mrs Phil 👍😁
Thank you. I enjoy much of your recommendations.
Great video, Phil! Lots of helpful tips. Thanks so much. 🙂
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with different products as you always do. Always looking for the next thing. Love the videos!
You are so welcome!
Great topic for a video Phil, been gone for a couple weeks and need to catch up on your videos. Hope you and the misses are having a good week .
That turtle wax tire cleaner should come in a 5 gallon jug......love that stuff
Great video! Just ordered the steamer anyway have u tried the tornador? I just got one and have been using it non stop lol! It’s great for cleaning pads, mats, interior and any hard to reach spots,
Thank! Yes we now have a Tornador nozzle and it’s awesome!

What kind of a steamer do you use do you have a video on that? Vx5000? What exactly do you always put in the pre wash for apc or degreaser
Hi byes it’s the Vx5000. Here is a video we did a while ago on it th-cam.com/video/0gpUaTRiwvQ/w-d-xo.html
If you any more questions search out TH-cam…we usually have a video on it.
@@MirandaDetailing okay what do you always put in the pump sprayer for pre wash? Is it different for coated vs non coated cars what you use
So for coated vehicles we usually don't need a prewash or apc rinse, we just rinse, foam , and wash.
Excellent video! Definitely would have been a good opportunity to use the little hand... perhaps on the next one. Love you guys!
I used the Miranda10 discount to pick up the Ultra Black Sponge from CSW last week. Should be delivered today!
Hi Phil and Jess. Great information. Thank you. I picked up a set of the orange work stuff brushes from CSW and they are phenomenal quality. One of my favorite tools 👍
Awesome video Phil
What’s your coffee of choice this morning?
The first, important decision of the day. 😉

Great video as always!
Hi Phil just saw you had a sonax ceramic spray coating, do you like it? Do you recommend it?
Hi. Which Sonax Spray Coating? You mean the Spray and Seal?
@@MirandaDetailing Yes would you say that'd be the spray spray on and rinse off product?
Yes the spray on and rinse off sealant. It’s pretty good but it doesn’t last the longest. Maybe a month or so.
I've bounced around different products until I coated my car with CQuartz, now I used mostly Carpro products (Reset, Descale, Reload, Elixir, Perl, InnerQD, Inside and MultiX). I've been very pleased with their results.
Yes! CarPro products are amazing!

Nice video Phil. Explained very well

Hi Phil, is there any link to the tools cart?
Oh sorry. I forgot Rolling Cart. amzn.to/3NDCZ1T

Hi. That’s strange. We haven’t had that happen to us. Sorry man.
Great list👍 Phil, I'm a hobbyist at the moment. Is there a cordless blower you would reccomend?
The only cordless blower that is any good is this one, its pricey though, bit.ly/3NAvZma. USe Code miranda10 for 10% off
Heavy duty plastic cart reference please.....??

Definitely you got a quality apc mixed with GSF (lubrication + cleaning power)
Hi. yeah it can be depending on how dirty the vehicle is. At 1:1 ratio thats pretty strong so you should be good
