Nice one Nick, well done as always. And thanks for sharing your process and products used, very helpful. 🇨🇦
Bro remembered he had a youtube channel
😂
Useful video. Thanks!
Actually cleaning a dirty car (many channels clean already clean cars), outside, on a warm sunny day.
And to top it off, the car is the worst colour ie black.
This is probably the hardest clean, so fair play to you.
Can I ask, why are you only wearing one glove ?
Bo' Selekta' fan maybe, Sha'mone MoFo and all that lol ?
Thanks man!
I’m honestly not too sure. I might have split the other glove and not replaced.
There’s no secret to only wearing one glove if that’s that you are thinking 😂
@@HarpersCarDetailing 😆
Great work matey.
I have worked at main dealerships as a valeter, and been a hobby detailer for a long time, so I appreciate this was the sort of clean which requires some forward thinking.
Hope your channel keeps growing.
Hard to maintain and wash black car. need very careful to avoid swirl marks
It’s the same with any cars, but the swirls are a lot more pronounced on black/darker cars 👍🏼
Great work and lovely Audi SQ7 👌🏼
How much ml of touch-less did you use in the 1L foam bottle?
Thank you 👍🏼
I use 125ml topped up with water 👍🏼
Hi Nick,when you used the polar seal and stuck to the recommended 40ml product how much water did you mix with it,I have this and never know how much to mix,I know it say’s minimum 200ml of water but does more water dilute the product,thanks Colin.
I haven’t looked at the dilution at all. I use about 30-40ml and top up the litre bottle with water
Great video. How long for this process take you? How much do you charge for your exterior washes?
Including the interior it took around 2 hours. I don’t just do exterior washes 👍🏼
Nice to see an upload again, Nick.
How are you finding Touchless V2 vs your old favourite Autofoam?
Have you stopped using citrus nowadays? I notice no KKD products anymore, what led you to that, or are the IW equivalents just better? I've been reading many people have been unable to get hold of their stuff for a long while now, like citrus magic, wonder why!
I washed one of our cars yesterady but the sun was a problem, I haven't mastered washing in the sun yet, the water just dries out way too quickly or I can't work fast enough! :)
Hope to see more videos.
Thanks!
It’s very good. It’s cleans very well as is economical.
KKD have been tricky to get hold of and prices have gone up quite a lot.
I’m going to do a video on a rinse less wash type of product as some point which is great for summer washes 👌🏼
@@HarpersCarDetailing Oh a rinseless video would be great! So give your tips on how best to do it, I bought a bottle but hesitant about using it so far in case I end up scratching the paint. I'll wait for your video to drop before trying 👍
I like the look of the Polar seal, is it better than Protector wax do you think?
It’s pretty much identical IMO.
It’s Autoglym Coat It that I’m using, but I think that’s pretty much the same as Polar Seal 👍🏼
Great video Nick!! What are you using for your pre wash? Also, what dilution ratio would it be?
I’m using Bilt Hamber Touchless in the pump sprayer 125ml/5,000ml so 1:40
@@HarpersCarDetailing thank you very much!! The Audi looked amazing once you were finished. Keep the videos coming.
Harper's detailing videos just hit different.
Thank you very much 👊🏽
Great work as always. Love your videos. Learning a lot from you. Detroit Michigan checking in one time.
🥰❤️❤️🥰🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
Hey Nick I hope you are well and your business running well too thank you for your advice excellent video then touch less shampoo is it working well? 🙏🇨🇦
All good thank you 👊🏽
Touch-less is really good; I’ve been very impressed with it 👍🏼
Hi mate, how long did this process take you
Including interior, probably around 2 hours
@@HarpersCarDetailing good work,
Good to have you back mate, looks like lovely car to work on. Nice job.
another great video Nick! Can I ask what is the hose you use for your pressure washer please? it looks nice and lightweight, I had my current one as its bulky and heavy :( Keep up the great work chief
Thanks!
It’s from Gleem Detailing. They have a handful of colour options 👍🏼
Thanks for sharing Nick, good to see you back again. You're one of the few people I see that clean the wheel barrels last, something I do myself too 👍
Thanks Ally 👍🏼
I’ve never understood why people clean the barrels first as it drags the dirt out on to the face of the wheel!
Good job, nice too see you back it's been a while
Simple to the point ,great video , and a cracking finish as always 😊
Thanks man.
Really appreciate it 👍🏼
Nice result. Polar Seal vs Protector wax, what's your opinion?
Thank you 👍🏼
Pretty much identical. Polar seal is more economical for me as I can buy is in 5 litres 👍🏼
Another Another great job job Nick, its been a while but worth the wait 👍👍
Thanks Eamon 👍🏼 really struggling to find time to fit videos in at the moment!
Nice car excellent job , very good products too 😁😁
Thanks Tony 👊🏽
What’s the rinse bucket for after two prewashes?
There will always still be a little dirt left behind on the paintwork. To minimise the risk of marring the paint, I always keep the wash mitt as clean as possible with the second rinse bucket
Very nice
Still my favourite channel!
👊🏽
What shampoo did you use ?
Infinity Wax Pure. 25ml in 10 litres so 1:400
Thanks looks very slick @HarpersCarDetailing
Nice one pal, might give that wheel cleaner a go 👍🏻
It’s a great maintenance wheel cleaner. An iron remover would be needed for imbedded contaminants 👍🏼
@@HarpersCarDetailing thanks for the info! at what dilution ratio do you use it at for maintenance washes?
I just use it 1:8 for everything. You could easily dilute to 1:15/20 if washing every other week
@@HarpersCarDetailing great to know cheers for the reply mate 👍🏻
It’s a clear liquid as well by the way. I added a little colour to mine so I could differentiate it from other bottle quickly
