I love cars, I have two of my own that I can enjoy. But the cleaning was always a pain. But being able to watch your videos and learn how to do it right makes me really enjoy putting care into the car. Now I have not only the joy of driving but also the joy of caring.
This makes me very excited because I own one! Mine is a 2011 base 6MT and it's seen better days but the small gas tank and high MPG's make this the perfect daily driver for me!
That came up like new. Outstanding! I'm only a Honda fan-boy from a distance having never owned one, but still appreciate car brands / models other than my own. CR-X or NSX next please! I look forward to the engine-bay video as I have one with my name on it too. Great work.
I used to think blank interior was the only way, but I had a brown over wheat car for a few years and the lack of ambient heat and somewhat soothing nature of the interior while being surrounded by it helped on drives. A continental difference between the US and RHD CR-Z is that we didn't get back seats, just hard plastics. Always enjoy the videos, thank you for sharing!
I always loved that dash board layout in that car and digital instrumentation. It was the coolest one of ALL the Honda's at that time. I almost bought that car just for the digital dash configuration. The whole thing is very futuristic looking and now 10 years later you are seeing a lot more manufacturers using full digital layouts. The CR-Z was ten years ahead of it's time. It took inspiration from the Honda S2000 which has that beautiful full digital layout.
Always liked these little cars, I'm scared of light interiors though. The special edition MX-5 I got last year has nice light stone leather but I fitted some premium black seat covers to stop me getting it filthy, also I don't slide around all over the place. Having very little interior certainly makes the Mazda easy to clean!
Nice choice of cars - I run a 370Z and my lad runs a CRZ - there’s a pretty active fan base for each, and the CRZ certainly is a potential classic IMO. A great, quirky, modern design, years ahead of its time.
I would agree. Cleaning someone else's dirt really makes it your own. That car is in pristine shape, especially for being 10 years old! The previous owner seems to have been mostly conscience of properly caring for it.
Nice Job! I like using Steam & Forced Air when cleaning interiors. FYI, in the States, the TW Glass cleaner is about 3 times as much as my regular glass cleaner, Invisible Glass. Thank you!
Great work! I'll be arriving in the UK on Thursday. If I happen to see the CR-Z, for whatever reason, I'll be sure to throw out a respectably obscene gesture, with a smile on my face, to show my appreciation. Can't wait for the next vid.
I agree, always finish with a vacuum Thanks, was looking for inspiration for interior cleaning. I would still protect the boot, there has to be something thats dog friendly
Completely agree with "no sense of conditioning leather" - makes the surface too slippery and to my experience attracts dirt which then is much more difficult to effectively remove. The coating of the leather is best protected by avoiding it being dirty for too long which results in abrasive dirt particles compromising the surface.
Good job bud. Have you a tube of Honda Shin Etsu grease for the door/hatch seals. Bit pricey but it goes a long way. My 20 year old car is still on its original seals and rubbers everywhere. The stuff is excellent and great for lube on window tracks and wires etc. great vid. 👌
Second vote for the Shin Etsu. Great on convertible windows, which tend to build up grime in the seals to the point where you think the window motors might be failing.
Enjoyed this video! I have an idea for keeping your vehicle clean smelling. I stumbled on this process by chance in the spring while visiting Florida with my brand new truck. A rat decided to crawl into the airconditioning and subsequently expired. I had to pull apart the dash to retrieve his stinking remains. Afterwards I pulled out the cabin air filter and put a new one in after liberally spraying it with Febreeze. Now instead of hints of dead rodent I had the pleasant smell of spring flowers. It's been 4 months since that unpleasant experience - the spring flower smell is gone but so is the smell of decayed rat. The truck actually smells new again!
Great video, very satisfying indeed, love the Honda too. I'm a big fan of Garage Therapy Interior cleaner for general interior cleaning but must try that TWHS product, looks great. I do use Auto Glyms interiors sanitiser for my boot area re dog carrying, seems to work well. Also have found that using saddle soap and leather conditioner from Australian brand Oakwood works well for me, especially if you remove the residue so that it doesn't leave it too shiny and glossy. Love the videos, great content, thanks.
Must admit I always love and prefer a clean interior over a clean exterior so find this video calming to watch. Maybe it’s from having children inside the car 😂
Dodo juice stuff looks quality. Not so keen on that TW Graphene interior stuff. Dash looked very patchy to me. Personally I prefer to use an interior shampoo and then treat my dash with GTechniq Matt Dash. Looks fantastic. But I've gotta say, if that were my car, I'd have those carpets out and retrimmed with a nice off white vinyl to match the trim. Or, failing that, a nice set of diamond car mats and spend some time fitting them under the trim edges properly. So much easier to keep clean.
If that air conditioner duct sanitizer doesn't do the trick for the musty smell, try an evaporator coil cleaner. You will have to pull some interior panels and maybe sneak a tube down the duct, but I guarantee the musty smell will be gone after that
when I first decided to give my steering wheel a good clean I was shocked to find it was previously painted over by some dodgy car flipper and was completely mangled underneath, and so was the driver seat too, until now every time I clean it more and more black paint is coming off and clogging up all my towels, I'm only using purpose made mild leather cleaner/conditioner do not think its some turpentine, buts its melting right off anyways. I'm starting to think the odometer may be tampered with too, if they were dodgy enough to go that far. I'd like to say I'll never buy a used car again but I know I will
Just makes it a nicer place to be if its clean . Thats what bugged me with fellow work mates trucks when I would pamper mine once or twice a week so as to not transfer as much s**t from the wagon into my own car . Just because they look clean doesnt mean they are as your video proves
Hey Joe, really enjoyed watching more CRZ content 😊. Quick question is there any product you would recommend to maybe seal the leather on the steering wheel. I clean mine quite often but after a few days it starts to absorb the oils from my hands again.
Thought I would but not really, this suits day to day usage more so as long as it keeps me occupied will be happy until I can afford to step up to something nicer than the Z!
great video and content. Does no one own a big car in England? What a cramp mobile. especially for you, with your big purses of accoutrements being dragged all over the city. where does the hambone fido go? glove box?
Yes most people own massive FWD “SUV’s” for no apparent reason but I prefer compact stylish 3 door cars and if you don’t really need the seats in the back then there’s plenty of space for a 6 footer!
I had the glass cleaner, but in the interior cleaner. The bottle is the biggest pile of shite. Took the first one home and within the 5 minute the spray head had broke. Went back and exchanged it for another one and exactly the same thing happened. Just decanted into another bottle. Won’t be buying again lol

The design of your car was at least 10 years ahead of its time...brilliant...! 👍
Your detailing style is truly one of a kind and extremely therapeutic!!!!!!
This makes me very excited because I own one! Mine is a 2011 base 6MT and it's seen better days but the small gas tank and high MPG's make this the perfect daily driver for me!
First thing I do with a new car is give it a damn good clean, you're right about it making it your own 👌
That came up like new. Outstanding! I'm only a Honda fan-boy from a distance having never owned one, but still appreciate car brands / models other than my own. CR-X or NSX next please! I look forward to the engine-bay video as I have one with my name on it too. Great work.
The smooth talking squeaky clean scouser is back! HEYO!
Paddy Pimblett?
Hes from the wirral I believe..we are not scousers. 🤪🤣
@@Pipboy83 to the rest of the country we are
Great job once again. Great to see the dog - need to feature more often!
Love the Bull Terrier 👍. The Target commercial dog and the famous Spuds McKenzie beer commercials in the U.S.
Great clean, love the way you cram all your gear in, no van needed.
Arse sheen deserves an official entry into the Oxford English dictionary.

Yeh I’ve looked that up think I’d prefer that plastic shelf thing.

“Free from anyone else’s arse sheen!” Hahahhahahahahhahahah this is the best line yet. Thank you for the fantastic content mate.
Car is a beauty! inside and out. as always you done a fantastic job, never thought to use disinfectant in the air vents before, nice one.
Fantastic job as usual Joe. That new range from Turtle certainly looks the business
Quirky wee car, which I've never seen before in this guise. As always you never leave a spec of dust lying around for long, great video.
Brodit mount, legend.
"pull out plenty of the previous owners farts" has to be one of my all time favourite lines from you. Bravo sir.
Always liked these little cars, I'm scared of light interiors though. The special edition MX-5 I got last year has nice light stone leather but I fitted some premium black seat covers to stop me getting it filthy, also I don't slide around all over the place.

Top job. Love the light colour interior. Think it gives a great contrast to the grey.
Love the bull terrier
The brzee came with a dog. I'm impressed!
This guy makes any car look sick!?!
Nice job pal the Cr-z is looking very nice.
I love TWHS Inside Job, I'm on my 3rd bottle and along with TWHS Interior Detailer, helps me keep my interior fresh and clean👍👍
Wow! Alot more room in the trunk of that car than you would think, fits the supplies perfectly
Nice choice of cars - I run a 370Z and my lad runs a CRZ - there’s a pretty active fan base for each, and the CRZ certainly is a potential classic IMO. A great, quirky, modern design, years ahead of its time.
Mate that Bull Terrier is the dogs business, what a beauty.😂😂
Man could narrate Netflix documentaries and I'd watch them just for him
I would agree. Cleaning someone else's dirt really makes it your own. That car is in pristine shape, especially for being 10 years old! The previous owner seems to have been mostly conscience of properly caring for it.
So glad you’re back, it’s been worth the wait!
❤ melts when the dog makes a cameo.

Very similar interior colors to my RX8 Shinka, looks like a pleasant place to be in!
It's now a truly "hygienic Honda". Well done, sir.
Superb!
Love the light coloured plastics and leather myself, makes a nice change.
Yeh will be a welcome change with the glass roof come miserable winter.
Great work! I'll be arriving in the UK on Thursday. If I happen to see the CR-Z, for whatever reason, I'll be sure to throw out a respectably obscene gesture, with a smile on my face, to show my appreciation. Can't wait for the next vid.
Yeh give me a massive wanker wave lol.
How do you manage to find cars that are in such excellent condition! The door sills and door cards are amazing on your Honda. As usual top job 👏
I agree, always finish with a vacuum
Thanks, was looking for inspiration for interior cleaning. I would still protect the boot, there has to be something thats dog friendly
Great video, your poetic narration is truly impressive

The coating of the leather is best protected by avoiding it being dirty for too long which results in abrasive dirt particles compromising the surface.
I'm not a huge fan of the pale interior but it did look mint when you finished. Well done Guru another decent video.
Didn't need to think much at all. Superb content along with super results as always 👍🏻
I saw that Honda at my local dogging site last year...I'd do that dashboard a bit more if I was you
😂
🤣 FTW
Can wait to do mine over again ...getting my clearcoat redone ...
If I keep this I’m not sure whether to go full windows out respray or rub down and wrap 🤔.
Beautiful Bullterrier 👍
Brilliant vlog.. car look awesome.. inside looks brand new after using the products.. great motor👍🏻👍🏻
Looks great inside Guru! Can't wait to see how you manage to keep on top of the dog hair
Great video mate
Loving the Honda x
Awesome job as usual, thoroughly enjoy your videos!! I must admit I’m falling in love with that wee Honda ❤️

Very nice detail! Excellent commentary.
top notch job as usual and a look at your gorgeous pooch to boot! :)
Nice one Guru!
Always enjoy your videos and appreciate the effort you put in, Filming and editing isn't easy! 🙂
Brilliant.
Need to make a pov video in sport mode

Well done as always. Your dog is beautiful!
Those dogs are so cool looking!Who's a good boy?!Car looks new!😎👍
Man I miss my CRZ!!

Priorities!
Love it good job!!!

Yeh that’s were it’s coming from, if I turn the AC off 5 mins before finishing my journey it’s not as bad next time I get in the car.
Love the video's, can you do a video on how to clean and protect Alcantara please.
I love your videos man well detailed great products and you seem too really enjoy what your doing been following a while now love the crz
Love your videos please make more interior clean video's....
Fab job as always, thanks.
Fancy cleaning up my Honda collection sometime 🤞

always a good idea to a carvertical check or smth similar
Your videos are a master piece ✨
Looks great! 👍😎
Change your cabin air filter mate, it could be the source of the stink.
Have done with a nice carbon one, still stank of old farts 🤬
Beautiful bully mate ....
Just makes it a nicer place to be if its clean . Thats what bugged me with fellow work mates trucks when I would pamper mine once or twice a week so as to not transfer as much s**t from the wagon into my own car . Just because they look clean doesnt mean they are as your video proves
Should have just stripped it. A fully stripped CR-Z feels like a spaceship.
How might we address German Shepard hair in the headliner 🙏👍😎?
Thanks guru 🙏 USA
Did u know you can swap the intake manifold with the Fit (or Jazz in your case) to make more power? Same l15 motor
Yeh will look into it once I’ve sorted an induction kit and secondary decat.
Another great video, great Honda, and a lovely great dog. What's his / her name ?
Knuckles!
My old CR-Z didn't have leather, wasn't offered in the U.S. IIRC, I was stuck with that weird cloth stuff and always looked dirty☠️
Hey Joe, really enjoyed watching more CRZ content 😊. Quick question is there any product you would recommend to maybe seal the leather on the steering wheel. I clean mine quite often but after a few days it starts to absorb the oils from my hands again.
I’ve generally gone with Dodo Juice & Doctor Leather over the years but anything the likes of CleanYourCar sells should be up to the job.
@@CarCleaningGuru thanks Joe, ill look through Dodo Juice’s range for a leather sealant. Ive used Dodo juice products a lot in the past
You miss the Z?
Thought I would but not really, this suits day to day usage more so as long as it keeps me occupied will be happy until I can afford to step up to something nicer than the Z!
try vacuuming the engine bay, its so much cleaner than pressure washing
great video and content. Does no one own a big car in England? What a cramp mobile. especially for you, with your big purses of accoutrements being dragged all over the city. where does the hambone fido go? glove box?

I never cleaned the inside of the windows or the top part yet to this day it’s clean why is that ?
