I thought you were going to stop after talking about what was on the first table. I get to the end of the video and not only is there a part three, I never realized I was watching part two. Now I get a prequel and sequel in addition to this great video. Thanks for the great content 🙏
You just earned a sub.
Thanks I'm a new start up detailer. I've detailed for a "fast food" style detail shop and left they have no passion for the profession. So I'm starting up my buisness while I work during the day thanks!
How does IT go?
This makes my OCD feel good
This is how I like things done 🙌 simple, useful, efficient and organized. This is the first video I watched on your channel and I'll definitely keep watching.
4 or 5 times is overkill. Buy good products , ceramic coat and everything will come off with ease. Product companies must love you as a customer
i love how you guys think ceramic coatings are the end all be all of car care, so many compromises and upkeep and everyone knows this, biggest gimmick are rim companies up-charging for the coating telling customers how brake dust falls off and the rims do not scratch, total BS and FYI my cars shine and look better than any ceramic coated car ive ever come across.
Ceramic coatings are pretty average, all their good for as a detailer is a money grab. I've detailed plenty of cars with $1000 plus ceramic coatings and they were some of the worst cars to clean.
I like your ingenuity, when you can't you find away to get it done.
That's the way, nice job, enterprising at work.
I lost it at the industrial wringer. Excellent video. Love the organization.
That wash mop is awesome! I love mine and makes washing my vehicles much easier and much more efficiently, especially my full sized SUV.
thanks for sharing your feedback it has changed hundreds of lives with my help.
The IK9 with Adam's wheel cleaner mixed 50/50 with water is AMAZING, also a little trick with the IK9, I remove the long tube after the trigger and pull the trigger at the same time I use my compressed air gun and spray air into the gun until the safety valve of the IK9 turns green, saves you a ton of pumping on the IK9.
I impressed with your presentation. everything discuss in short and easy way. you are a good teacher too as well as a professional skilled person.
Thanks for this video, it's EXACTLY what i was looking for, not another chemical guys advertisement lmao. I want to build my own kit
This is so detailed (no pun intended)
Best list I've found so far
"I was my car 4-5 times a week"
Subscribed.
Seriously!!! That made me feel right at home.
The yellow touch up tips i would also cut the ends off but to get into perforated seats.
You wash your car 4-5 times a week????
His car is well taken care, maintenance wash will take 15-20 min.
He's an auto fanatic, what else do you expect?
What he means is , as soon as anything gets on it . Hes washing it off. The joy of owning your own space allows for this.
After every use
Kenz Lipscomb hey babygirl
I think there’s an O-Cedar mop...I think that would be very useful for a two bucket method. A DIY, change the clothes and boom! It’s just that your two bucket method moves all around.
With the cedar mop, it spins.
I'll check it out!
Can’t argue with your product picks. Simple and effective.
I have had great success with the Amazon $15.00 foam canon and mine does not leak. It has been used a number of times.
give it time it will fail like they all do
Those trigger sprayers from CG are the best so far for me. And also the black sprayers from Zep are awesome! It's hard to find good sprayers now a days lol!
FYI I am giving these awesome style sprayers with my 007 Gloss Enhancer, those videos will be up next week stay tuned. No cheap stuff for the AF or for you guys supporting the brand.
I kept watching because I thought the LED light was a speaker! Wondered how a speaker could clean a car
ha ha ha that would be a cool portable speaker
Ha thanks for explaining that and good video man
Don't feel bad. I thought it was a cool speaker, too, and wondered what it was doing on the table.
@@jonny5777 my thoughts as well!😊
This guy is a DIY genius
thanks you must have seen some other videos ha ha ha. AF
As usual, another great informative how to video. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us and improving our car cleaning lives.
busy working on the new website I think your going to love the content especially all the stories I will be writing each week on everything automotive.
Plenty of good tips here in this video. The vacuum pump cap is a good idea. I subscribed.
i sell them check out my web store. thanks AF
Fantastic video. Thanks for including the links to buy the tools.
From a professional car detailed who owns his own body shop you could probably cut down on a lot of stuff there is a lot of good stuff though
It's my understanding, chemicals should be stored in a temperature controlled environment. I clean once a week, if possible, keep them in the house. Garage gets too during the summer.
Guess if you clean much more often, doesn't matter. Or throughout the winter..
Thank you for sharing your expertise. As always, extremely useful stuff.
Awesome products a nd thanks for taking the time to showcase what u use and the time efficent ways of doing things.
Good video. I'm having neck surgery next month, I'll be needing a wash mit on a pole!
I love your obsession!!
Good video and perfect products.
And you do clever modifications
thanks for watching and make sure you check more content on this channel. AF
Dont like the wash mitts. I use the wool looking ones. They seem to hold the soap better! Thats just me
I use the wool, with thick pile on most of the paint. Then I get the Wash Mitt for the bottom of the car near the trims. It keeps the paint clean and safe. So I don't blame you. More suds is more dirt carried away.
Have link to product?
Very Nice Set up!!!
super sweet. i like how you got the unit.set up... i follow matt too..lol
Amazing setup man! Applying a lot of your storage solutions to my trailer build... Subbed, thanks for the info!
This man must do everything holy shit
I'm 85 and enjoy detailing my cars and have for many years........
awesome thanks for sharing your passion
Very detailed :) ... 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 brill video !!
Would we have to wait to buy a wash mop on your website, or could we do that right now?
Does the power washer gun attatch to a conventional hose. If there is good water pressure, would 'it do?
Great video! Im a rookie who would you recommend for getting auto detailing training? Also who would you recommend for chemicals when starting out?
ZEP Bottles are a no-go for me. Couple of my cleaners have disintegrated the seals on the inside and the sprayer no longer works.
stop using acid based cleaners they hurt the car and your health pretty bad, i never had a Zep bottle fail on me.
@@autofanaticcars Not acid- based, one of them is Sonax Full Effect wheel cleaner and it's enough to break down the seals. I replaced the nozzles with chemical resistant ones from US plastics. 2 years, no problems. Maybe I got a bad batch of nozzles from ZEP, but they were done within 3-4 months.
that stuff is nasty as there are chemicals in it that eat the seals up in most sprayers then they leak and you get that nasty on your hands and its not fun, you should consider trying my foaming wheel cleaner and be done with the skunk piss smell ever again plus its way cheaper as one bottle makes 6 gallons of wheel cleaner. the smell of any cleaner with iron activator makes many sick from using it which is why i developed a safer system.
Another great video! What would you use to clean and maintain a 2015 Mustang GT convertible top? Any info on this would be great as far as products and regiment. Thanks!!!
great video Auto Fanatic …. keep up the good work
What do you recommend for a step stool for a mobile business?
I enjoy your videos immensely and thank you for the great content. Question: Have you figured out how to keep cats off the vehicles at night? They leave paw prints at a minimum, but lately, I have been getting scratches on the roof and hood of F150 and Explorer. I think what happens is when we let the dogs out at night, the cats gets startled and bolt off the vehicle, leaving scratch marks. Please help.
can not help on that one, i do know have cats to know much about their quirks and stuff.
Kenco here in Australia make a similar wash mop from Autobarn
I want to start detailing as a side hustle, never done it before but I realized this is something I would love to do. I dont own a home to work indoors , what are your suggestions for a beginner like myself to start and work my way up ? I want to offer better services than a regular car wash for $5 . Th is a lot .
buy a van and outfit it to go mobile
@@autofanaticcars was thinking that , will have to look for a cheap one.
Love the vids no BS keep up the good work.
How many time do you wash your car each week?
Wow is 4-5 times really necessary? Does it damage the paint
Michael Melchor it doesn’t damage it if you do it right, if anything it helps it. And it’s necessary if you ALWAYS want a clean car
@@alexnasiadka5140 clean is clean but man does a person have a life to wash their car that many times?
@@ericschmidt1987 and I run 4 business all on my own too, its called the NYC hustle to make time for what is important. ha ha ha
Great video seen some cool things, just the tone of the video seems like these are must have things
So are you a professional auto detailer? Or is this your hobby. What is your story? Your occupation?
I like the video but can I get the no touch wheel cleaner you advertised weeks ago...
4-5 times a week! my mom thinks its over kill for me to wash my c4 2 per week
Nice...
Hopefully I can get to your level one day
And beyond; CHEERS
*🌌**11:32** mints in Rain 🌧 in so Forth are great Weather’$ Or Rain storm are great For our Freshness We stay park or if we have to go out we take the easyes😇car🚘🚙🏍🛵🚛🚚🚤🛥🛫🛸etc..........that we can clean and Voilā great share keep the growth📈*
What are you doing to modify the griots garage wash mop base?
Great info Thank you when is the wheel cleaner package coming available
Some people like jogging , others like fishing and some like to care about they car. Plz dont be sarcastic :-) Nice movie , TY
Bleech White is the greatest white wall cleaner ever... I think I spelled it correctly
problem with bleach white is it prematurely yellows the white walls and white letters we always used that growing up and thats just the nature of bleach
You don’t need all that!
IK Foam 9 you can buy from the rag company. Great foamer
yeah they are the sellers for it on Amazon
Would you happen to know how i can remove dirt from car paint that had been sitting outside not washed for about 5 years ? Its on the top, hood, and trunk of the car and color looks dull, like there's no clear coat on it. The body shop wanted to do a full paint job but i wanted to check if i could fix it myself first. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
All purpose cleaner if the clearcoat is damaged it may need paint
Alot of the stuff you can get is the same cheap stuff you can get from China for 4/5ths of the price, just its got a label packaging and mark up on it.
stop supporting China after what the entire world is going through right now.
i would really like one of your modified wash mop kits !!!!
i have one left in stock ready to ship go to my web store
@@autofanaticcars thank you !
I cant wait to have one !
grab it now because they rarely are in stock, parts came in on Monday and i just finished it this afternoon and its ready to ship out
The vac brush at 2:10, where can i find one like that? Thats a really cool tool, i didnt even think about that since i already have the SW interior brush. Cool Tip:)
Amazon sells the micro vac attachments i may have it linked up top or you can check my interior videos on this channel its a must have
More like this plz. Love it.
Thanks for the Video.
Curious on the Jawhorse part of the video. MF is cleaned just by soaking with no agitation?
can you advise on equipment to buy for a commercial car wash business
brick and mortar location or mobile? that all depends on budget and sheer volume of cars.
4 to 5 times a week?! Dayum. I barely find time to do it once a week.
Link or more info on the wash mop kit please, thank you

Nice vid man👌👽
Sadly my power washers (I have an electric and a Honda motor gas Ryobi) and both have screw on hoses for the wands :( Wish it was a quick disconnect so I could use that gun.
you can convert over i hear
What ever happened in the old days after church,washing the car under the shade tree! This like anything else,you can spend any amount you want on car cleaning.
I got a question about the MTM, I'm looking to get a a budget electric pressure washer. are those pressure guns universal? If i get a pressure washer, buy that MTM gun, will it work? Also, what does the wand do, is it just for extra length? From the looks of it, I just want the gun and foam cannon, and attach it like so, without the metal rod in the middle.
Thanks a lot for the content btw
What do you use to clean all your microfibres and brushes for the wheels?
Griots Mirofiber cleaner usually
Great video as always!
Where did you get the plastic cover caps for the gallon pump dispenser? I got some pumps but they didn't come with the caps. I don't want product leaking on my garage cabinet lol.
i sell them in sets now, hit me up direct to order.
Is a synthetic wool wash mitt just as good as a microfiber? I have one of each and I'm trying to figure out which is better, if any
Nice vids thanks! What’s a decent power washer for around $150 less. I’m in the condos so space is limited.
try a Sunjoe lots of guys told me they work great if you change the nozzle or something else i do not recall,
What is the size of the black pump caps? I don't see the need in getting the assortment pack of the link provided.
i have stock and selling the caps now in a set on my site.
Thank you great video as always
Crazy then this dude will only have soap and a shampoo for himself haha
890th like!! Why do you have the gallon containers on the shelves facing that way? Id think it would be easier to have them facing the other way with the pump hanging over the edge
Great video brother. Keep it up
Hello sir, I have a question for the mtm hydro gun, does it come equiped with the stainless steel quick disconnect ? Can you also fit a lance on that one ? thank you.
yes to both questions, you just need a quick disconnect on the gun for the lance.
Link for the pressure washer?
What do you use in the griots hand foamer for a rinse-less wash? I’ve tried using regular snow foam soap and get this really tough soap residue left behind that’s hard to remove.
Those wall mounted shelves by Pit Posse/Prairie View starting at 19:50 look awesome. I will definitely be getting a selection of those for my garage walls in the very near future. I like the unpainted aluminum look and I have already checked on-line and Pit Posse's shelving prices are the lowest I have seen for wall mounted shelves compared to Griot's Garage (way too over priced for what you get), as well as some of the other companies out there. Even though the other companies may offer a color or powder coating on their shelving units, I prefer the clean look of the unpainted aluminum and as these shelves will be inside a garage and not exposed to any weather, the wall mounted aluminum will undoubtedly last just about the lifetime of the garage. The powder coated shelves, while nice, is just overkill for a garage setting. I'd rather have the unpainted aluminum for a much more reasonable price. It just gives a very industrial (like a nice industrial kitchen) look which I like. All the tools you describe hear are just about exactly what you need to effectively detail any vehicle. Thank you for taking the time to create and post the video as this is a very helpful video for people looking to get into detailing either professionally OR, like myself, just a detail enthusiast who wants to have a very organized garage and not break the bank creating it. Love that power washer unit from Matt Moreman at Obsessed Garage and really like the wheels and bracket you've personally created to make it a rolling unit which is what I would want over the wall mounted option for that pressure washer. Great video overall, thanks.
thanks for checking this out, im all about efficiency and maximizing my space and the stuff i use really solves the problem for many, AF
7:00 at my uncle's gas station people always are taking those squeegee with then he tell me he put out new one every months.
now you know why, you can not buy them anywhere around NY so insane not even Grainger had them in stock.
Auto Fanatic next time I go see my uncle i will ask him where he get his squeegee from n let you know if u need some more
What kind of light is that? Where can it be purchased?
Griots Garage sells these exclusively
I purchased a microfiber mob from Autozone. I’m located in Westchester County. Are you able to modify it for me?
Did you mount the quick jaw to the bed of your truck?
Great content !
Thank you for this video.
Do you still use the sure shot & solo sprayers since using the IK9 and Foam-It?
yes i use them all but with the foamers i am using the foam its since they are just a better design. i will have a video up for Black Friday of all the new gear i bought this year for the garage, detailing etc. so check that out next week
@@autofanaticcars I appreciate your passion for your craft! I've learned a lot in the few months that I've been following.
But most of all I appreciate how you stay in contact/interaction with the Auto Fanatic community than you've developed.
Continued success in all that you're doing.
@@brianbuchanan7215 thanks Brian stay tuned il have a really neat video up next week for Black Friday showing lots of cool stuff i bought this year for the garage and detailing and then il be doing a video highlighting all of my detailing equipment, and stuff in December you will also enjoy. Stay tuned
Hi, great video that I watch from France. Not a lot of french video ^^
The gun you use at 0:45, is there a model for the Karcher K7? My foam has the connection k7
What did you do to sand and polish that vacuum tip?
belt sander in my shop and polished it with my Baldor buffer on the wheel high speed
Auto Fanatic nice. I have been looking for a vacuum tip like that to fit my rigid vac
I love all this stuff
I have lower back issues as well, do you sell the wash mop?
Seeing OG selling the 1322 kranzle with a 3/8" hose - you are using the 1/.4" on yours; what's the impact on performance?
zero issues on performance
Is this Scott from Dallas paint correction???
