I have never watched a more pointless detail but here i am at the end already lol great job.
lol thanks for hanging in there 😂👏
One should always take pride in the care of their equipment and tools.........cleaning never hurts anyting. You brush your teeth then eat....no difference....take care of your stuff.
Ive always liked the saying take care of your equipment and will take care of you.
I mean I definitely get where you're coming from, its quite ironic to clean and detail earth moving equipment. But it does increase the longevity of the vehicle, as dirt and grime do increase wear and tear.
I always wondered how construction equipment gets cleaned like right out of the factory clean
guessing its off to the auction
Yesssss!! My dad was a heavy machinery operator and owner, I grew up driving those. It was my job to wash them after dirty jobs (bigger ones and excavators) and I just wish I had all your equipment 😂😂 hoses, big brushes and buckets are not as fun😂
That sounds like a lot of work lol, my next video is on an excavator and it was a LOT
@@ChemX omg I can't wait lol it was tons of work. But I couldn't mow lawns, I was so unlucky and clumsy with my feet, my dad was afraid I'd end up cutting up my toes 😅😅
@@_Julie_Bee Yeah.....payloaders and excavators are waaaay safer than lawn mowers.
….n of course his cleaning products……..
@@theloniousm4337 lol not much to do with heavy machinery that's turned off. It's not going anywhere and pretty much nothing is loose to move it. I mean, maybe my dad was weird after all lol we did spend time doing roofing when I was about 8 or 10. 😅😅 Tales of the Canadian great north. When you can't find workers, use your kids 😂😂
Oh man don't let the bougie detailers catch you destroying their beloved Kranzle! Heat definitely cuts your working time down for sure. Great video as always Bob.
Thanks Martin good to hear from ya!😁❌👏
You're right.
Warm water can help cleaning chemicals work better because it increases the rate of chemical reactions. When water is warm, the molecules move faster and collide more frequently, which can speed up the chemical reactions between the cleaning agents and the dirt or grime you're trying to clean.
In addition, warm water can also help to dissolve dirt and other contaminants more easily. Many cleaning agents are designed to work more effectively in water, and warm water can help to enhance their solubility and effectiveness.
However, it's important to note that not all cleaning chemicals work better with warm water. Some chemicals may lose their effectiveness or even become hazardous if they are mixed with warm water, so it's important to read and follow the instructions on the label carefully. In some cases, cold water may be recommended for certain cleaning products.

Nothing better than a Chem-X video on a Friday afternoon
Well it’s Thursday for me but yeah 😂
Heavy Duty is incredible stuff. I couldn’t believe how good it was the first time I used it. I’m used to 3-4 passes with a degreaser. HD does it in one. Highly recommend.
Heavy Duty is virtually Untouchable... I've tested it against quite a few others. It's powerful AND VERSATILE!!
I used to steam clean heavy equipment for a living. All day long for months at a time in all kinds of weather. It was always outside in the elements. -20C with 160C hot water at 4000 PSI was easier then a hot summer day believe it or not. You will learn after a while how to limit your time chasing grease around the machine. Like I said, it's easier when it's freezing. Simply get a layer of ice over everything, then blast all the heavy greasy spots. It won't stick to the ice. Then go around and rinse off the ice. That's the short version of many hints I learned the hard way. By the way, I was doing in preparation for sandblasting and paint. Big fancy workshops will get very messy in no time, which adds to the time of chasing grease. Sunlight dish soap is all I needed. I don't want chemicals splashing back in my face, the grease and dirt is bad enough.
That red bar you washed starting at 5min mark: it's the lock for the front bucket. Put the bucket all the way up, pull out the pin on the red bar and it will drop down on the hydraulic cylinder. This is how they are supposed to be secured. Great video! thanks
C - chemical
H - heat
A - agitation
T - time
This acronym is what is needed to clean anything. All you need is 3 of the 4 to clean you just have to do more of the other three if you subtract 1. For example you said that it took longer with the cold water machine than it did with the hot water machine. Less chemical would require more agitation and vice versa. Cool video
That's not dirty for a backhoe. And it's supposed to have grease in those spots
That was a lot of work. Great job. I wish my company cared for their equipment as much as this company does.
I really really really love ur workshop with all the chems and the ph-washers !
Nothing beats the heat of a hotsy!!,,& what a great job u did & an amazing video
The thing about full detailing heavy equipment is that it is 100% gonna get just as bad or worse as it was after some site work lol also on heavy equipment the grease gets everywhere from joint pins, I have found it easier to hit joint pins first so I’m not rewashing the machine every time I hit a pin. Great video!
Bob I just love your videos. You are a prince of a guy and a very astute business man!!!
Much appreciated thanks!
Would be cool to see you get some contracts with a few heavy duty equipment dealers to keep up with newly sold equipment on a yearly basis to keep them in pristine condition based off of this video. You do such good work not only cleaning wise but with your explanation of the process. Keep doing what you do brotha!
Heck yea... he's Back :) miss these videos mate :)
youre a sickkkkkk man to details!
awesome.. ty for sharing!
I don't know what it is, but it's so satisfying to see a clean heavy piece of machinery.
Editing on point! 💪
spectacular cleaning😍
Very satisfying 👍
Love watching these videos. Especially when I’m taking a break at work. I honestly want to say that “ heavy duty “ by far the best fuckn thing I’ve ever tried!!!. I mean it. I use it for my ram 2500 diesel truck underneath to clean the axels to get all that built up and man it works really good man especially on tires as well. Keep up the good brother your stuff is amazing and I will continue to make purchases
That was awesome
killing' it per usual!!!
Thanks bud good to hear from ya!
Hell yeah, new vid!!!
Goo gone is a really good tar remover set it on a big spot like spray it on then take a scraper and get big chunks off. And once again to wipe stain then wash with degreaser! It works for my skin anyways! Lol I’ve had to go into asphalt tanks and hydro blast so I’ve had to find ways to get it off beard hair and stuff
Excelente trabajo!!! Saludos desde tijuana BC
As a yard technician for a construction equipment rental company I prefer using heat when washing the equipment especially when it comes to stucko and pait
Paint
That stuff foams like crazy just in a pump sprayer!
great video. HD cleans pretty well. i see you got some new items i'll have to give you guys a call this up coming week
Much appreciated Karl thank you😁👏❌
Been a while but great video! Great before and after.
Thank you yeah had a lot of year end drama to handle with the business but I’m blowing all that stuff off at this point to make more videos lol🤷♂️😁
@@ChemX sorry to hear that! Hope things get better. I love detailing cars but watching these videos and watching the dirt melt off is cathartic. Thanks for your hard work!
Perfect video I need to see. I detail tow trucks clean an ones that look worse then this an I'm working on getting some of your products now.
Thank you!
It is always better to learn from your own mistakes because it humbles you. If you just learn from others mistakes you never learn the most important lesson of getting up and trying again.
That crust on there is good for it and protective. Now you have to grease it all up again to get the water out of everywhere.
Yes, full vidya!!
Here’s my question. I have watched enough of your videos to notice how you adapt tools to the situation that you are working to obtain the best results. So do you have an engineering background?
Thanks Wayne, no background in engineering here but I’ve spent a lot of time trying to look at things differently and imagining better ways to do stuff😁
Awesome video!
Had a quick question, how many oz of heavy duty do i use on an iK foam pro 2? For wheels and wale fenders of vehicles
Hey Bob. Question for you. I’m building my garage to have a decent setup to wash my trucks and my wife’s car. Not for business just for personal use on washing the cars. Anyways I like buying good brands. I am a true believer on how the saying goes “ you get for what you pay for”. Anyways the pressure washer that I’ve been using so far is the Ryobi 3200. I want a pressure washer set up on the my wall connected to the spotless water filter like yours. They say best out there is the “Kranzle” but I see you don’t like it. What do you recommend?.
Just a heads up if you want a pressure washer boil that doesn’t leave debris use a comet diesel boiler as they use copper coil tubbing inside
Should I buy the ALK9 Sprayer for heavy duty on strong on a greasy loader and foam battery sprayer for heavy duty at 80-1 for my trucks or can the battery sprayer handle heavy duty at a strong dilution ?
I wish I lived near you I would work for you for no pay, just the satisfaction of the transformation of the vehicles
I just got my truck washed in Maine I would to see how your products like mShine would do in comparison on my aluminum trailer
can you apply snake oil to a dry surface then buff off.. for better adhesion and durability?
Good video. I am confused though you are using the pro 12 with heavy degreaser, however on website says not with alkaline products. Is it because with dilution is below caustic levels?
Very good video, Can you tell me what type sealer you have on your concrete floor ? Thank you
I love it can you, do a school bus inside and out? Just curious, as a school bus driver it's part of my job to clean some of it on a daily. But with only micro fiber rags and spray bottles to work with , the end of year cleaning sucks bro!! Please help?!
It's a shame your products are not delivered in france !!! but great video. Love your channel
Can you agitate star and stripes, like use a microfiber wash mitt?
Very well done !! I’m a retired equipment operator & that was my ritual every Friday . 👍
That’s a great ritual to have thank you sir👏😁
Union ?
Do you have any grip on your floors?
I work for a logistics company and wash there trucks and trailers in a garage.
It used to be a old paint booth so there’s some over spray on the floors making it kinda rough.
Last week I slipped and fell on a spot with no over spray.
Just curious if your floors have anything to help with slips.
Great job! I thought for sure you would have started with a bottom wash 🤷🏻♂️🙂
In "CASE" you were wondering, CHEM-X is next level stuff lol it does an amazing job mate 👍
Lol thank you 😁👏
@ChemX no worries at all mate, I want to get some in the future to try for sure lol and the thing I appreciate with you, is that even though their your products. Your not stingey with them, like you don't hold back on the amount you use, just so you get the customer satisfaction 👌and the viewers too lol keep it up mate from Australia 👍
Is the pump sprayer what makes it foam like that or is it the soap itself ? Referring to what you where spraying on the tires.
Will Heavy Duty work on food grease using cold water? Given how it eats through heavy equipment grease, I'm gonna guess this may be a dumb question but ya never know.
The Hot Water might just help loosing up dirt and grease and other sticky stuff better then the Cold Water.
When it comes to Grease, you want it to become more liquid. So more Heat, will soften up the grease alot more.
Why did you remove the white etching on all the switches? That was there for switch identification.
In my country that first washer can make a living
Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill LOL!!! Degreaser, Steam Pressure Washer, and a little elbow grease. Its a backhoe not a lambo! 😂 Maybe a little Armor All for the seat. The Operator will have it tore up again soon enough. I will say they kept it greased good.
This machine works on a road crew. Its fate has already been set... HAHAHA!!! All joking aside, first time watching your channell and you do a good job.
When I clean equipment I hit it with the Hotzie first getting all the big stuff. If im feeling generous I'll throw some degreaser on it and then hit it again. No need for scrapers and brushes. Just let the chemicals and heat do their thing.
But i get it, its a youtube video. Definitely gonna check out some of your other vids!
I knew it would come, a simple but nice way to clean any kind of vehicle or equipment. I'm seventy three, back in the day when your car had to look its best, we spent hours detailing a car we were in love with that week. Good thing gas was twenty five cents cause the chrome store got most of our money for tailpipe extensions or panties and dice hanging off of the mirror in the center of the windshield. One of the prettiest girls around peeled her panties off and handed them to me for my car in front of the other girls vying for my attention of my lipstick red and white 57 chevy convertable. I saved every dime I could in 56 to pay cash for that car in december of 56. I wish now I had got the supercharger engine now as I had that car for years and years and it looked new when it went away. I have some cool stories on that old ride of mine.... but ya most likely not even gonna read this much
ugh I always wanted to destroy a Krazle.... so I can upgrade to your pressie washer.. way better.
what awesome videos, chemicals, and difference you make to this industry and your content is priceless. thanks man anyways learning from you.
WHAT ATTACHMENT ARE YOU USING WHEN PUTTING ON THE TIRE DRESSING. ITS NOT ON THE STORE. i need that hand held foaming brush
Should have had a count for how many times the word "grease" was said 😂😂😂. Awesome job, always love watching your videos.
Damn now that’s all I’m gonna see lol 😂🤦♂️
@@ChemX sorry, I had to point that one out 😂😂
My anxiety flared up as you were pressure washing the cab, possibly peeling stickers off along the way. I think I would’ve went old school with a garden hose around the cab, but that’s just me
Awesome sauce got a color change? Mine is a darker blue. Love your videos and products
Thanks bud yeah we had a limited edition that we gave out for free for awhile which was blue, this one is the normal color😁
Ayúdame a lavar mi fairlane!!!! Genio!!! Cómo me gusta tu trabajo!!!
so cute
I like my surecans. When i start to fill i crack the big cap loose just a little and they flow decent. They are a little slow but the "safety" design of them is soooo much better than all the other garbage safety cans that actually spill gas everywhere.
I’ll have to try that, I’ve never spilt more diesel in my life than I have since I bought this can lol
@@ChemX I've never had an issue except when i get distracted and don't pay attention to the hose. Its really handy for my tractor cause the filler neck comes through the top of the hood which is flat. So i can sit the can ontop of the hood with the hose down the neck and all i have to do is squeeze the handle.
I still prefer OLD SCHOOL! Metal can + funnel! OR, the bigger Race cans with the Long clear hoses and inline valves, cap and plug❌️
@@detailit if i were to replace my surecans I'd go with the race cans. There's a huge range of standard "safety" cans on the market but the ones available at the big box stores in my area are garbage. They suck for filling a mower and some of them the necks are so short i don't think you could fill a car or truck
@95dodgev10 Great info! My cans are about 15 years old and the and the safety spouts don't work any longer. I just screwed on an old school straight spout, no safety device just straight flow, then I cap it when not in use. My 2 cycle stuff I have the Stihl premix in a metal can. Good stuff. Take 'R easy!🤙
Just curious on how much you charge for something like this?
I like to clean up the greased pin and not leave old grease, gives the new grease a chance to actually get to the area doing the work and lubricate it. Greasing into a grease compacted pin does nothing and leaves the pin without lubrication. Use a plastic spatula not a metal one to scape off the grease so you don’t damage the paint or the bearing or pin seals.
Be careful using heat around grease zerks too, the spring in the zerk can take flight and lodge in your eye (true) and grease also flings, best to dissolve it with solvent and wipe it away.
How do you quote jobs competitively. I have been watching you alot and am thinking of starting my own buisness
I like your vids 👍 I'm amazed you don't have a hotsy!
Ahhhh! That was Nice! EXCEPT for the 187 of the Kranzle....holy 💩... I was like NOOOO! BOB, if you hate it that much, send it to ol' detail it😂😂❌️... good stuff as usual Bob! L👀KS like you have a ton of fun with these videos!! One of these days if I EVER do some mobile stuff I may have to grab an ❌️factor machine! Have a great week sir. Take 'R easy!
Hahahaha no way bud I wouldn’t wish that particular machine on my worst enemy your better off with what ya got now 😂 down the road if ya need a mobile unit let me know👏
@@ChemX 💯% buddy. Thanks Bob❌️
How do you dispose of the wash bay wastewater? Is it collected in a tank and removed under contract, or do you filter it on-site and send it down the municipal sanitary drain?
Really
Do you know any good pump sprayers for acid. They all just seem to stop working after a while cause of the acid or something
Yeah you just want to make sure it has no metal in it, the hdx sprayers from Home Depot hold up good and they’re practically free
Industrial power steamer!!! Basically only way to clean heavy equipment
Matts goin to be mad
😂
im in the cleaning house business and i want to up my game with sometime certain stains we cant remove with conventional methods i suspect sometimes if i had like a small portable heat pressure washer those stains would have been removed....is there any hot pressure washer that could be used in say bathrooms bout the only place i think i could use it interior wise ....any advice is welcome'd
A basic Mcullough steamer is all you need for your in home cleaning industry. 210* of dry steaming heat works wonders.
@@altillman1448 those come off as cheap to me and ive had it where certain stains woudnt come off either when i used to have another steamer it was either rust or years of hard water calcium that i would struggle with, i want something that i cab throw heat and no matter what kind of stain it would remove it like magic but inside of a home
Is liquid x a soap that will give a good amount of protection? I am thinking about buying some, if it has a protection to it
It’s a polymer sealant and it does work good, but being mixed with the soap it can’t leave as good a coating as a dedicated sealant like my snake oil product can
@@ChemX ok, thanks bob
Why destroy the pressure washer?
Agreed! Why? Just give it away if u don’t use it. Senseless.
D lime 90 is expensive 😂 but Chem has a hole warehouse full of it lol
What does it take to work with you!
Ik needs to start selling that stub wand for the foam pro 12 because I want one now 😂
It’s way nice😁
What do you charge for something like that?
If the dash lense gets moisture on the inside, I would not steam again. That will cause damage to electronics. Especially a regular vehicle or truck. Heavy equipment should be a little more resistant. So be cautious ⚠️
Glad to see another vid. I've been down for 6 weeks and have a ways to go still and been waiting lol. 👍
Good to hear from ya bud thank you for the tips too😁👏
@Chem-X yeah you need to crank out more videos because I'm getting cabin fever here LOL
I'm glad you got to see the hot vs. Cold.. heat definitely accelerates the process! I think Bob need to hire me to do weekly shoots and he can edit them😂😂😂😂. Good stuff👍
It aint gonna hurt anything if you blow it out.
@Sak 20012019 actually blowing it with air makes it worse around Electronics because you're blowing the moisture further in. And I'm talking on a regular vehicle, not heavy equipment. I like to take small vacuum to suck the moisture up and out of everything around electronics, knobs, and switches on the dash. Much safer practice.
How large is your holding tank?
Do you have a grease trap?
That poor old pressure washer lol😂😂
I don’t feel bad for it one bit😁
Late to the party so can you please explain the reasoning behind the annihilation of that Kranzle machine 🤣 love your work, end results are always chefs kiss
Much appreciated bud yeah I bought it to see how my soaps work with a nice residential machine that’s more common than the industrial stuff I normally work with, it was used though and not being 100% it was too weak to run a foam cannon. I was gonna fix it but the seal kits were expensive and I didn’t have the time, so I decided to stir up the comment section😁
Not even gonna l👀k at Bob's reply. I'll take a stab at it... ITS A COMPETITOR, and X-factor machines will SMOOOOKE Kranzle! Just sayin'! Now let's see what Bob Said....
Yeah is it a running joke or he really hate that brand
@Az92 i cant speak for Bob. I think Bob knows X-Factor machines are better... just a Guess!👍take Care!
I want to see a city trash truck clean down with a smell before and after test!!!
That heated pressure washer would prob clean the majority of 5he grease off without soap. You guys are the pros so you know better than me although I would have pressure washed it to get the heavy stuff off then hit it with the soap
I think that your next video should be detailing my skyjack
Send me some pics to orders@chem-x.com bud😁👏❌
I'm curious about the Kränzle in the US.
Because here in Germany, their Industrial Powerwashers with a water boiler have the same pressure and higher flowrate than your pressure washer and it's less than half the price.
Do you even have that version, as its 380v 3phase? And how expensive is it?
Ohh wow I just looked it up, their wall mounted version is more powerful than your 7.5hp version and about a third of the price.
So all you need is your foam injector and you have a full setup under $3500.
I think they make a nice machine actually, but this one was used and not able to run a foam cannon unless I rebuilt the pump, and when I was looking into it the repair kits were expensive and unavailable, and I didn’t have the time to tackle it regardless.
I think out here in the states the tariffs and shipping costs must drive the price up quite a bit for the units your talking about, the KWS1200TS runs anywhere from $4000 to $5000 with 600 lower psi but 1.5gpm higher flow which totals 12000 cleaning units. The 7.5hp wall mount I use normally costs $5000 and totals 10500 cleaning units because of the lower gpm, but I prefer 3.5gpm over 5gpm for both water usage and also soap consumption. I think the main difference is I offer a 100’ hose with kew connects and stainless hardware and high psi swivels out at the gun, and the pump layout is more cost efficient for maintenance, overall each piece is more industrial and designed for use in tougher environments.
We don’t use 380v out here but 480v 3ph is available for the same cost. If your looking to grab a machine for yourself though the KWS1200TS would be the way to go if your seeing that low of a cost over there.
@@ChemX I'm sure there is also some markup in price for the made in Germany branding for US customers.
Oh you're right, I wasn't aware that the hose reels were so expensive. That does make your kit very similar in price point.
Get yourself a replacement spout for that diesel can. They are one Amazon and I can fill my dads tractor with a 5 gallon can in less then 30 seconds.
Have you got a dealer in the UK?
Would be nice if you could leave the captions up longer because I am not a speed reader.
I use a rubber glove and bucket first. Get as much as you can. Then towel then paper towel.
We have 2200psi hot
& 3800psi cold
I love hot water yes not blaster like 3800psi but hot water just works like dream
👍 👍
Lol bro you sound like Eric the Car Guy😂
Tbh i like kranzle pressure washer products but that kranzle jokes really hard 😂
I like them too actually but this one in particular got what it had coming😂
