The difference between Larry and everyone else is his ability to tell a story and how relatable his small business is for people getting out of the rat race.
I remember watching his videos in 2007-2008 timeframe, until then I had noticed, no one woudl tell you their polishing secrets. He just made it easy for everyone to understand.
@@80srenaissance67 of course. He makes real money from manufacturing his cleaners and coatings. He started very late in the coatings. he is an experimenting guy.
Yeah, and Larry just seems more...real than the other "satisfying video"-style TH-cam detailers (not all TH-cam detailers, of which there are plenty of great ones; I just mean the ones in that very popular style). Even when he does these "disgusting" style details, I actually can believe that this organically came up. With the other channels, it just seems like they're desperately on the lookout for the most disgusting vehicles they can find, for fear that a regular old vehicle might not get enough views. Also, I really can't stand all these style of TH-cam detailers putting out their own product line, which are just generic detailing products that they put their label on. I deeply respect that Larry at the very least puts in the WORK to make these products his own and does a lot of his own actual mixes/creations.
A lot of the young ones have probably learned a lot watching him. I want to say I was watching him over a decade ago, but seems like his videos go back only 9 years. Anyone know if he had an earlier channel or maybe deleted the really old ones that might just be updated?
Love your willingness to help out the people in your life and all of your relationships seem so warm and genuine. Thanks for being a great example Larry and teaching us all some great lessons that you may not even realize.
Not only is your skill and talent and dedication to your craft part of what makes your videos so satisfying to watch, but the wealth of knowledge you share with your audience to better the community that you've become such a vital part of is incredible. Your genuine kindness to the people around you and your willingness to help makes it that much better. The world definitely needs a lot more Larrys!
I like Larry's individualized approach to each detail. Detailing a work truck will be different than detailing a barn find or an exotic car for a museum.
Man I watch almost every detail channel and this guy effortlessly cleans in the most professional and scientific way. He's far and away the best made this car look damn near new
I think what I love most about Larry is that even though he is one of the top detailers in the world he still stays humble enough to detail the guys truck who is working on his lift. Not too many people that acquire skills like this, and work on a prestigious level such as he does stay humble enough to do stuff like this.
Good job, Larry. Out of all the TH-camrs out there producing content like yours, your somehow rises to the top. This video also reminds me that I need to restock soon, haha!
That was impressive! Between the headliner, headlights, bed protection and the amazing work on the interior if there was a concours for work trucks, this would take top honors.
Yes! For an enthusiast, detailing awesome cars is fine and dandy. But for me, seeing a work truck/ daily driver getting the love it deserves is a whole different ball game.
The fun fact is that they appreciatie the effort, but once they are alone in the car they will see the real deep detailing that has been done, and they will really appreciate it after 2 days by contacting about the changed car! Love it 🔥
You are the only detailer I watch on TH-cam. I have learned so much from watching your videos on top of what I already knew so now I can protect our brand new car we just got 2-3 months ago. Thank you.
Back to basics!! Love it Larry! I think doing some ‘regular’ cars here and there keeps the channel relatable and relevant. Thanks for the great content as always 👏🏻
Your videos never fail to grasp and keep ahold of my attention for the entire duration. You always have something informative and new every video. I learn something every time. I'm sure making your videos can be time consuming but I appreciate all that you are doing for us watching. Thank you sir.
I was just searching for how to detail my own car with a steam cleaner when I found your video. You come across really well on camera. You look like you love your job and explain things in an entertaining way. I would not be surprised to find out you had a show on Netflix. Further, you're a miracle worker when it comes to detailing. My husband is a mechanic, and his truck could really use your automotive resuscitative services. I hope you keep enjoying your wonderful work for a long time.
Best freakin car detailing channel in all TH-cam.. Period. Your immersive content is highly addictive. Once you start watching an episode, you want to watch it until the end. Kuddos for a great delivery and teaching skills, I'm 45, and I've been in the car world since I was a kid, and I've been wrapping cars for the past 12 years, and your content has pushed me to pursue car detailing to expand my shop's services, I recently became a Rupes Certified Detailer and I watch your videos to learn even more. Keep it up!
You're a good man Larry for helping out your friends! That DA on the headliner is neat, never seen it used like that, I was taught to use a DA with a MF pad used for leather seat cleaning but rarely do it in practice
I have many times tackled an interior like that with your products and I've had amazing results. Proof is in the pictures, and the happy faces of the customers. Not only that, but it is so satisfying to take before and after photos. Cheers!
Larry, I know you’ve heard this 100’s of times over but your work is very inspiring and I share the same passion that you do! Love watching the videos.
Respect for this Larry - realising that one man's dirty truck is his means to not only earn his livelihood but also to support your own business shows not just business sense but also human values too. These little things go a long way, right?
I love that you did this for the service guys that work in your shop. I respect that a lot and shows that you're a man that appreciates good business. Keep up the fantastic content. Thank you!
Larry once again you’re teaching me how to become a better business man and detailer! This truck is a perfect example of you scratch my back I’ll scratch yours. The steamer is going to be a machine I keep in my arsenal at all times! I’m learning techniques that I never knew before! The safety aspect is one that I never thought of and now will put into consideration every time I must! Keep up the fantastic work!
I admire your attention to detail. Coming from the used car business and doing buy here/pay here, I’ve seen worse. To get those ready for resale, you have to remove the seats and carpet for a complete cleaning. Although we usually take about a week per vehicle. So what you did with time allowed was great. Keep it up!
After a long week I'm sitting in my Sluggard-Boy chair, watching you work on my monitor. No idea why this is so relaxing but it works! Plus, I find new ways to spend money on my cars.
I love seeing clips like this. Nasty as they are, you bring it back to life. I (no professional. Just a weekend warrior) love projects like this. Not that my vehicles would ever be this bad, just having a project like this is so therapeutic. I’d do it for free.
Love this one!! I bought my dream truck, a 2006 suburban 2500 that lived as a farm truck for the last year or so. The interior was covered in dirt and animal hair, so I’ve been stripping the interior down to the body itself in preparation for a good power washing (and much more). Also cleaning every interior part that has been removed, inside and out, before it goes back in. Can’t wait to get it all back together and hopefully cleaner than it came from the factory! Thanks for the inspiration and motivation as always! Bonus points for the gmt800 detail!!
Great work as always, I will never understand how people can neglect their car/truck like that and never clean it. In this case the truck is your business card as well and cleaning it weekly part of a business expense.
I have seen all your videos but sending you a message with this randomly.I just want to let you know that your videos are pure inspiration very well edited and that you feed my hobby and dream with all of them Manyvthanks from Spain.
This is what I strive for. It's how I detail. Check out eastwood brand, rust convertor. Then top it with any media you like. I either paint over it, use spray on bed liner or seam sealer if on a pinch weld like the door skin you talked about. All fun stuff. Restoration detailing 👍👍😬
I don't understand how some people aren't going nuts when they see their old beater turned into a like-new truck. But then i remember that its the same people that let it get that way in the first place and couldn't care less anyway. This was a serious overhaul, great job on this one, Larry!
Just unbelievable, Larry you are as great at telling the story and keeping us engaged with your words as well as with your incredible skill and attention to detail as anyone in the industry. Please open a AMMO Detailing Studio near Atlanta lol I would love the opportunity to learn. I’ve Been a Shop Foreman for a large Honda Dealer for 16 Years now and Detail on the Side, I would quit in a heartbeat to make transformations like this everyday. Your truly a master in your trade. Keep up the awesome content.
As I've mentioned to you in other forums (read emails), I'd love to see Shag, Obey, Dygest, Syphon and Lather sold by the gallon. Without a doubt, the best cleaning products I've ever used and my wife continually takes my spray bottles to do clean-up in the house. #AMMOgallons
I love seeing regular cars/trucks being worked on. It's completely satisfying and all great info & tips for my 2002 Ram 2500, that I plan to keep on the road for another 200k miles.
Larry to say your part of my inspiration in working to start my own detailing business would be an understatement. Your perfection and attention to detail is awesome to see. Great video as always.
Larry is the engineering explained of auto detailing, sure there’s lots of detailers but when you think of professional results Larry is who comes to mind
A well maintained work vehicle says A LOT of your level of professionalism IMO. Whether you do it or have it done it represents the quality of what you do. I have more respect for a well maintained older vehicle than a brand new shiny one. I love the transformation of this vehicle and your friend has to feel good being in it again.
Larry amazing job as always, this was really fun to watch. I wanted to point out your great choice of music @4:58, it gave me flashbacks to The Last of Us video game. Nice acoustic sound.
I loved this!!!! We have a Ford F150 work truck we bought used and I have no idea how to clean it's nasty seats. They are like raw leather (think of a saddle) any suggestions, I literally thought about using saddle soap on them because it is meant for raw unfinished leather like that? Fun story we actually found gravel inside the panels of the bed when we first washed it 😲
Quite the incredible Before/After!! Great to learn about how you cleaned all of that grease and oil off of the interior panels too - what a difference!!
That was a very, very impressive do-over. Love that the tyres don't get too shiny with that stuff you use. That steam cleaner gizmo looks like it's a garage essential. Very impressed ! Greetings from Prague, CZ
I love detailing I love the fact that you don’t get emotional because you know the car will get dirty again but is enjoying what you do that matters 😎💪🏾
Awesome! I’ve used your stuff on our church plow truck. There have been times it was pretty bad, not to this level thankfully but I do enjoy making things look worlds better😁!
One of the most notable things about Larry is, after doing the entire detail, he says, ” *we* fixed the headliner, *we* cleaned it up, *we* painted this”, etc..

@@80srenaissance67 It’s hard to tell he does have really rich clients that probably don’t want their cars on camera. He’s definitely well off now.
Larrys buiseness is not so small as you would imagine Ammo products are selling great and as i guess he is an owner of this brand
@@80srenaissance67 of course. He makes real money from manufacturing his cleaners and coatings. He started very late in the coatings. he is an experimenting guy.

There are so many detailing TH-camrs these days, but nobody does it as well as Larry!
He’s the goat
Preach!!! 🤜🏻🤛🏻 The best detailing channel ☑️👌🏻
Agreed . Love all the guys shooting there shot and making good content. Larry and just making everyone better .
A lot of the young ones have probably learned a lot watching him. I want to say I was watching him over a decade ago, but seems like his videos go back only 9 years.
Anyone know if he had an earlier channel or maybe deleted the really old ones that might just be updated?
I'm going to have to agree with you there, sir.
Love your willingness to help out the people in your life and all of your relationships seem so warm and genuine.
Thanks for being a great example Larry and teaching us all some great lessons that you may not even realize.
Yes Levin’s a great dude! Thx for watching :)

You're not a detailer, you're an artist!
Arteest :)
this is such a cool thing to rock out your contractors !!! you sir are a saint :)
As a professional chemist, I'll vouch for the accuracy or your steam+detergent explanation! A+ haha
I think what I love most about Larry is that even though he is one of the top detailers in the world he still stays humble enough to detail the guys truck who is working on his lift. Not too many people that acquire skills like this, and work on a prestigious level such as he does stay humble enough to do stuff like this.
That is an MVP move, help a friend out, I love it!

I appreciate the fact that you can explain what you’re are doing and why it works in a way that easy to understand.
Came for Larry and his detailing expertise, stayed for Rizzy. Top content as ever
the front lights polishing is unbelivable!

The only car detailing Channel on TH-cam i could Can Watch hours and hours of without getting bored. No joke.

Larry is literally the king of detailing.

Some of the most satisfying and therapeutic automotive cleaning content out there. You have a way with words, Larry.
You have gone FURTHER than just cleaning a car, you make art man, cheers from spain!
Larry is the type of friend we all need.

This was a nice truck transformation. That truck is like, "Yes, I look good again!" I think it even ran happier.
That was super cool to watch! I've found those kinds of jobs to be super satisfying cause of how big a difference it makes! Awesome job!
It's so much more satisfying to clean a filthy vehicle isn't it? Larry, you're an animal - keep it up!

feels very good to see your skills and OCD applied to something as coarse and used as this truck.
I watch these on my lunch at work. Good stress reliever.
Love seeing this kind of work go into a everyday vehicle and not an exotic car once in a while. Job well done.

Your videos are so satisfying. You really do enjoy what you do. Not many people in life get to find that.
Larry, you’re the best
Thx for watching! :)
Great job on this! Really digging the jazz during interior cleaning!
Very satisfying episode! I know you did it for the pup and what a wonderful thing to do. Nice.

the truck looked amazing afterwards...love the point about sometimes cleaning things being about extended their life until a replacement...
Love these videos! The will to help, and be a good human being, is really humbling to watch. You're an inspiration :)
Only thing i can tell, is that you did not love the dog jumping right back in, thats for sure.
Excellent job like always.
Good on the both of you for looking out for each other.
“The dog’s already making a mess, I love it”…..said through gritted teeth 😜
Quite the incredible Before/After!! Great to learn about how you cleaned all of that grease and oil off of the interior panels too - what a difference!!
God, I love this channel, I always get excited everytime a video is uploaded. Thanks, Larry!
That was a very, very impressive do-over. Love that the tyres don't get too shiny with that stuff you use. That steam cleaner gizmo looks like it's a garage essential. Very impressed ! Greetings from Prague, CZ
These are probably my favorite videos of Larry's: the daily driver that needs to be practically restored, with that little extra flare.
I love detailing I love the fact that you don’t get emotional because you know the car will get dirty again but is enjoying what you do that matters 😎💪🏾
Love ammo products and Larry. He explains in great detail how and why you use a product and tools. Gives me confidence to be able to do it myself
Great video these are the ones I love to see. Average people in average cars and it really pushes me to keep my stuff cleaner.
Its like every video you post I learn something new lol. You rock Larry!
Thanks Larry hope you are and the family are well and so are all at Team AMMO. Regards
Wow that trick with the DA/microfiber pad on the headliner is awesome! I’ll have to add that to the repertoire
I have a "front yard find" project starting soon. Interior is a disaster! And this is why I watch your content. Thanks Larry!
This what makes me love watching this channel. Larry is such a great guy. Any update on the steam game? Still waiting on that
In the final stages of development! Stay tuned :)
SOOOO much better than the mud videos everyone else does. Great video very satisfying
Nice to see you work on a daily driver that’s not $100k. Hope to see more videos like this in the future. Nice work Larry.
Awesome! I’ve used your stuff on our church plow truck. There have been times it was pretty bad, not to this level thankfully but I do enjoy making things look worlds better😁!
The before and after shots of the rear seats and headlights are sooo satisfying 🤤
One of the most notable things about Larry is, after doing the entire detail, he says, ” *we* fixed the headliner, *we* cleaned it up, *we* painted this”, etc.. Maybe there are more people helping him off camera, but the fact that he doesn’t take sole credit for everything he does is highly respectable. I’ve had too many managers who never lift a finger, make *I* statements, as if they did anything and never credit the team that actually did the work.
What a beautiful video. Love the passion and dedication you have towards your art and skill. It is truly inspirational.
Wow, what a difference. Great job on the truck and also on helping him out.
