Just jumped into the detail world and Got myself a bucket and grit and now I see this guy exposing the industry lmao I guess I can use the bucket to sit on as I clean my wheels🤷🏻♂️🤣
The grit guard is great to seperate the mitt from the dirt on the bottom. I don't use it to rub the mitt at all. Especially for ONR washes. I'll finish a wash, refill the bucket with fresh ONR then leave the BRS in the clean solution covered.
Scott, what you need is an electric self-propelled wash bucket bot that has a track propulsion system that will follow you around on any terrain as you're washing a car. Oh, and you'll need two: one for the soap bucket and one for the rinse bucket. You'll be able to program the thing remotely with your phone. This will definitely impress your customers with the fact that you are fully on board with the high-tech evolution of modern business.
Scott once again you give us another common sense approach to car care. After viewing countless videos on the best way to wash a car and then watching your channel, I came up with a method that I feel works for me
I just finished washing my SUV for the first time using your method and I can't understand why anyone would do it any other way. Scott, I wish I would have started watching your videos when they first came out. I may have used a bit too much soap, but that's a pretty simple adjustment. I love your common sense videos packed with backup reasoning as well as your product evaluations.
My favourite detailing video! I started out with the two bucket method, and grit guards. I now use 1 bucket and multiple mitts. If I had a power washer, I would follow this to a tee! Love it!
Dude! I always wondered why you would foam your car, then rinse your car, then put shampoo in it and wash and then rinse again! Thank You! Love ya, Brother!
Exactly. I watched this a while back and blew it off. But, it's just plain sense. Too many opinions out there. Is it safe? Yes. Is it efficient? Yes. Boom.
Thank you 12 million how to wash car videos and only “one” says rinse the car first! I was told this 45 years ago, it removes all the loose heavy large grit that can scratch your car.
Rinse it from a distance to make sure you're removing only the light particles and not the heavier ones. The big particles are better kept for the foam cannon to "dissolve".
This is genius... i really enjoy detailing my cars but because of back issues and time constraints I'm now trying to find the most efficient way to clean and protect a car without compromising quality. this is definitely a process i'm going to adopt
Your new york essence and way of saying it as it is, makes me laugh so hard. I love the humor that you implement in your vids. Keep it up i am loving your channel more and more everyday!
After watching your video I decided to do research to see about this. I have actually found multiple sources that say this new, no bucket method is being taught to many detailers and is catching on, more so in Australia, but it is only a matter of time before it gets huge in the states. Your multiple wash mitts method, the phrase they used, is very good. Some state that the foaming is not truly useful at all but to still do the multiple mitts. Others say the foam is great lubrication for your mitts. I am someone who has detailed cars, out of pure enjoyment. I really like doing it and it calms me when drafting and architecture get annoying and I need a few hours break. I am glad I saw your video before buying useless buckets and all that. I am starting a detailing company on the side for the days drafting is slow. Your video was very, very helpful. Liked and subscribed.
bp 77 i started using 6 wash mitts before I started detailing. The reason why was I scratched my black paint and wanted to figure a way to keep it clean. I found a bargain on microfiber wash mitts it was like 10 mitts for $25 and started using multiple mitts.
I just purchased my 1st pressure washer and foam canon a month ago and washed my car this way before seeing this video. saves so much time and money. all though I only used 1 mitt I could go to wall mart and get as many as I need for 2bucks a pop and would be way cheaper than all that crap they try to sell you....thanx for saying out loud what ive been saying to myself for years...1 tip I would share on saving wheel cleaning products,,,i use dedicated sponges for the wheels and spray product on the sponge instead of on the wheel when most of it goes thru the spokes on to the ground and rotors and floats away In the air
stunning video, you make me look proper stupid with all the crap i buy ,buckets, grit guards etc lol. I found it really funny and entertaining to watch but also having a serious point about how we waste water, product and money, well worth the watch for me and everyone to take a step back and have a think about things first.
I'm going to add to the comments saying this same thing: now I have to buy more wash mitts! Aaaarrrrrggghhhhh! But you do have a very good point Scott. Thanks for the enlightenment. Once I buy a pressure washer and foam cannon, I'm gonna try this method. At least I have three buckets to throw my mitts into...
FINALLY! Somebody who gets it! I'm an old guy but only been truly detailing my car for the last 4 years - thanks to my son introducing the sport to me. I have two buckets alright - from Home Depot. One holds my water, shampoo, and 5 submerged super thick microfiber towels, and the other is empty. I rinsed the car thoroughly, then pull out one of the soaked towels, fold it and start to wash the car. I do one half of the roof, and flip it; do the other half of the roof and it and refold it and keep going. When I have used all 8 sides - I throw it in the empty bucket!! It never sees my car again that day! Rinse the car of the soap and continue. It's impossible to contaminate the soapy water! And my car is flawless. Thanks for confirming my method Scott! It's so simple.
Been in the body shop and detailing industry for 17 years. I just subscribed. You have a good passion for thinking outside of the box. The detailing products industry is meant for exactly that Geeks and dummies. You can easily strategize on a marketing plan to sell something to these idiots and they'll buy it. There's Millions right there alone.
What a great video, you're a natural in front of the camera and very entertaining. Thank you for the logic and common sense you disseminate. Look forward to seeing more!
I am sooooo glad that I saw this video before i purchased grit guards, and John Wayne's washing machine. Thank you Scott from Dallas Paint Correction for the PSA.
What you are saying makes sense. I work for SERVPRO and we are taught when wiping down walls on smoke damage to dip your towel once and fold it in fourths. Wipe then flip, wipe, flip etc. then on to a new towel. I watch AmmoNyc for his over the top ocd approach to detailing and combine it with your no nonsense approach. Like you say, it’s all what works for you. Thanks for sharing Scott!
Love this video! Sorry I was living under a rock and just learned about the "Foam Cannon". I was taught to wash cars the 'old school' way and been wondering why someone would double the process if you already have a 'Foam Cannon' to do what we did with two buckets!!
You make good sense! I dont want to bad mouth anyone but as a beginner in detailing, I watched many videos and went in the double bucket with gritguards direction and bought a whole whack of products.........for nothing. I Soon realized how clean is clean. The double washing and rinsing, my time seemed to be wasted. I believe now they are pushing their own agenda and products and probably bad mouth each other. Thanks Scott, your honest explanation is fantastic. I am going to watch every single video on your channel.
Detail guy in training wheels here salute you , appreciate your time, Thank you for the info and answer questions i had , you got your self a new subscriber !!!
You buying chemical guys or adams polishes news flash micro fiber is micro fiber. No such thing as a fake wash mitt only over priced ones you can get two of them for 9 dollars on amazon.
@@codyfrancis4474 he's not a fraud it makes sense plus if I'm being honest your gonna want more than 1 mitt if you wash more than 1 car so realistically you should have about 5 of them.
@@Mach1Chriss Yeah if you do detailing you go thru wash mitts like you're lighting them on fire anyway even if you're using the two bucket method... So asking you to spend $30 on 6-7 wash mitts is like asking you to buy a gallon of carwash soap.. It's just common sense.
Thank's Scott love your videos, learned so much since watching you. Can always tell when you are upset with the detailing g industry and when your not and enjoying the moment. Great to have someone willing to give great advise and not bullshit the public!
Brilliant! I'd come to the same conclusion, but lacked implementation. When I was younger/cheaper, I made my own "grit guard" from those square fluorescent tube panels used in drop ceilings. A couple bucks bought a panel that would make several grit holders. You're spot on about swirling the water and bringing up the dirt. That's why I abandoned the light panels and went to the real deal. Same problem. Then I noticed that organic matter (leaves or worse, nut dust - I have live oak trees and the nuts often shatter when they hit the concrete driveway) would float in the rinse and wash water. Grit Guard does nothing to get those out of your mit, and trust me, that organic crap can be just as marring/scratching/swirling as the sand and other road dirt the grit guard might stop (if you didn't agitate the dirt up off the bottom when dunking the mit). My grit guards and buckets are going to become Christmas gifts to a fellow car club member. :D
Been subscribed for a while now. Definitely just a hobbyist, but I appreciate how you work your ass off! I love these videos and can't believe how many you are putting out. Keep it up, Scott!
I bought into the grit gard bs starting out. Im selling it all now. Just have more wash mits. It makes more sense in the long run for mobile detailers. A pressure washer really doesnt use much water at all.
Dude, you just saved me so much time. I knew I was doing it the right way before. I could’ve bought a power washer with everything I spent on water alone.
Wish I watched this yesterday. Just bought the "DETAIL GUARDZ" because "it works better"! It does but why do I need it again? He makes so much sense I couldn't stand it so I had to add my reply. We all get caught up in the excitement of detailing and forget to "think"...Why do I need this fancy such and such? Luckily this time it was a cheap life lesson! Thanks, Scott for keeping it real! Anyone want a Detail Guardz for cheap?
Great video, Thank goodness someone has put this out, I just use the hose / pressure washer to blast the wash mitt / pad when it needs it generally after a panel or two then boom the dirt has been blasted away and its done with clean fresh water, McGuire’s wash plus is an awesome product for this method.
Owner of a 1998 3000GT VR-4 and I usually scour YT for great car detailing content. I've watched a couple of your vids and I must say, top notch brotha. This one definitely earned the sub tho. Keep up the great work 🍻👍
Scott, my fellow bald brother! Great work! I am in the process of starting a my mobile detail business. I have lost everything. I will make it work. Thanks for your inspiration!
My new favorite video. I love this guy. I'm not a detailer but want to keep my cars decent looking. Not showroom quality but clean. Love the foam cannon. Good job on the video.
Scott, really miss your videos and postings. I have learned a LOT from you. THANK YOU. This was a real eye opener as I couldn't get my head around the need for two buckets if I was making use of a pressure washer and quality soap. Hope you're doing well.
Scott... from one bald guy to another, wear a hat when you are in the sun more than a min or two. I see your scalp...please trust me and wear a sunblocking hat. I wear a bucket hat made by panama jack, claims UV proof. Super lightweight, I cannot wear baseball caps, they give me headaches. ;) just a thought...oh nice video ;)
As someone who isn't bald I wish someone would have told me something like this when I shaved my head years ago....I nearly died. Literally. I wish I didn't learn the hard way.
Hey Scott. I've been wondering what the correct way to clean microfiber wash mitts is. How do you do so? I usually just throw mine in the clothes washer with regular old liquid detergent.
Great video...the only change I would recommend for this process is to first wash off the initial snow foam and then do a second snow foam for when you use the multi-microfiber wipe down. Think of it this way, the initial snow foam will contain numerous dust particles that can potentially scratch your paint; however, that risk is minimized by adding a second snow foam for a mitt wipe down!
Ha great points! I just returned 2 dumb grit guards to Amazon and ordered another 2 pack of wash mitts. Just saved a lot of future hassle, soap and water. Thanks dude
Scott, honest question: Would you consider it of little benefit to use a 2 foam process? First application is allowed to dwell before rinse. Second to be washed then rinsed. Theory being the removal of contaminants in First application before applying a wash mitt.
I was literally just thinking this after i foamed my car for the first time and went to use 2 buckets. Like wtf am i doing putting more soap on a car that i cant even see anymore through the soap? So i just did the same thing, broke out my wash mits and threw out my buckets and grit guards!!
Marlon Estrella super scratched. Like so many scratches I think the paint is starting to peel off. Eventually I won’t have to worry once the car is bare metal!
Matthew Steinkamp I done exactly what this douche bag said a few months ago and it ruined the ceramic coating because the wash mitt was rubbing dirt back and forth leaving swirl marks. All to save $1.99’x 2 5 gal buckets at Walmart.... Even if you wash it with 20 mits that cost $5 each still not going to stop those scratches
Snow foam isn't lubricated like shampoo it's there to cling to the dirt and pull it off .... Shampoos which are designed for bucket use are lubricated so you don't scratch the car
This guy is the most sarcastic ever hahahha so good and also he just told us the truth! Ill remove them 2 buckets and grit guards from my basket which was going to cost $44 !!!
Ive watch a ton of vids on washing cars ,just watched this and I wont watch another ,thank you ,you have saved me loads of ££££ and saved my paintwork ,thank you sir
Remembered in elementary science classes we did experiments with dirt in water and how long it took for the dirt and water to separate. So the 2 bucket method never made sense to me. I just used multiple mitts. Thanks for the laughs and the great videos Scott!
Greetings from California. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. The truth is the truth, whether it’s said in Texas, California, or any where else. Thank you and God Bless you.
Same. The point of the first one is to get as much of the grit off as possible before washing it with a mitt. My 1994 300ZX with black paint scratches even with the softest of the most expensive microfiber clothes on perfectly cleaned paint. It's just too soft to even breathe to much near it. Just wearing jeans with rivets near the paint scratches it.
I've been doing like this since I drove my '84 Gran Prix. When I was told I needed 2 buckets, I thought????????explain why.....thank you for this video. So funny
Finally I found someone else who uses the exact same method I've been using for years. Time saved = more money in my pocket. I had a local detail guy tell me he can do 2 cars per day. I've told him I can wash and detail 3, so I can make the same money, while only working 4 days a week.
you need an ad on the internet "car detailers hate him, see how he is upsetting the industry." 😂😂
lmao so true
I told You already.
You are a natural born Detailer to break all the industry RULES.
God Bless You, Scott.
Love You Allways.
Buckets with bigger logos on them usually work better for me
Michelle Jasper CHEMICAL GUYS
It’s like putting stickers on your car. Guaranteed extra horse power.
Lmao!
They definitely clean the car better in the same way that a clean car drives better.
Where can I buy big logos for my cheap bucket?
I had people swing by my cubicle wanting to know why I was laughing so much...great video.
Get back to work
I have 2 buckets and some grit guards for sale if anyone is interested.
Lmfao
$$$ Buy more wash mitts!
Hahahaa
Lul
10 dollars, all I got.
Just jumped into the detail world and Got myself a bucket and grit and now I see this guy exposing the industry lmao I guess I can use the bucket to sit on as I clean my wheels🤷🏻♂️🤣
When life gives you buckets.... hahah
Add some wheels😂
Also a bucket is great for storing your chemical bottles
The grit guard is great to seperate the mitt from the dirt on the bottom. I don't use it to rub the mitt at all.
Especially for ONR washes. I'll finish a wash, refill the bucket with fresh ONR then leave the BRS in the clean solution covered.
You can flip your bucket and eat your lunch. In the shade.
Scott, what you need is an electric self-propelled wash bucket bot that has a track propulsion system that will follow you around on any terrain as you're washing a car. Oh, and you'll need two: one for the soap bucket and one for the rinse bucket. You'll be able to program the thing remotely with your phone. This will definitely impress your customers with the fact that you are fully on board with the high-tech evolution of modern business.

Its the same with hair shampoo. Wet hair, lather and rinse. Repeat the process.
I found your first video 3 days ago and now I've watched around 30 and this one twice. So refreshing, so real, so funny. Please do not change!!
Exactly. I watched this a while back and blew it off. But, it's just plain sense. Too many opinions out there. Is it safe? Yes. Is it efficient? Yes. Boom.
This video had me cracking up, keep being you Scott!
And me.
Great video.
This is idiotic. I expect more from you trap.
Lol
WTG Scott, another honest and true video for us newbies to reflect on when it comes to doing things right and saving time and money at the same time!
Thank you 12 million how to wash car videos and only “one” says rinse the car first! I was told this 45 years ago, it removes all the loose heavy large grit that can scratch your car.
Rinse car is not really needed if you snowfoam rinse then bucket wash
Rinse it from a distance to make sure you're removing only the light particles and not the heavier ones. The big particles are better kept for the foam cannon to "dissolve".
Scott, I'm one of those who fell into the trap!
...from now on I'm doing it your way, thanks.
Your're an honest man, great tip, great video.
This was very eye opening. Definitely going to revise my wash process to get rid of those damn buckets. Hate using them every time I wash my car.
This is genius... i really enjoy detailing my cars but because of back issues and time constraints I'm now trying to find the most efficient way to clean and protect a car without compromising quality. this is definitely a process i'm going to adopt
Your new york essence and way of saying it as it is, makes me laugh so hard. I love the humor that you implement in your vids. Keep it up i am loving your channel more and more everyday!

Martyn J-C I just bought 20 buckets🤔

10 wash mitt later
You're going to need two buckets to store that pile of mitts.
I just purchased my 1st pressure washer and foam canon a month ago and washed my car this way before seeing this video. saves so much time and money. all though I only used 1 mitt I could go to wall mart and get as many as I need for 2bucks a pop and would be way cheaper than all that crap they try to sell you....thanx for saying out loud what ive been saying to myself for years...1 tip I would share on saving wheel cleaning products,,,i use dedicated sponges for the wheels and spray product on the sponge instead of on the wheel when most of it goes thru the spokes on to the ground and rotors and floats away In the air

Tallishyeti27 plus you’d need a trolley and a lollipop 😂
Your joking. Right?
It's called a quick disconnect for a reason...

Best vid yet!!!
Gonna wash my mitt down by the river!
Toxictaxi , Never got this grit-guard BS...grinding a mitt against it seems like a good way to ruin it to me!
I bought into the grit gard bs starting out. Im selling it all now. Just have more wash mits. It makes more sense in the long run for mobile detailers. A pressure washer really doesnt use much water at all.
I have a grit guard in my toilet. Wipe then rub toilet paper against grit guard and can rewipe same paper. Yes I’m a baller!!!
Hi Scott, just getting into detailing my own car for relaxation, and just found your channel, as well. Many thanks for the great advice!
Finally someone who makes sense of it all! Thanks for your honesty.
Scott is on fire 🔥!!! I learned something about birds today... Thank you
Haha this is good stuff. So true. I’m just looking to make my job easier with one of these. Do you recommend a specific power washer and foam cannon?
Dude, you just saved me so much time. I knew I was doing it the right way before. I could’ve bought a power washer with everything I spent on water alone.

Except that they don't make McGuire’s wash plus anymore
This really helped me with my purchasing decision. Thank you. Your sarcasm and sense of humor made it fun to watch.
Scott, You just became the Patron Saint of Carwash ♥️👍🏼
Thanks for keeping it real. ...I appreciate your honesty.

Dang, this guy is automatically invited to any of my bbqs. Thanks for the info bro!
Love this guy, how he talks, and how smart he is! I never thought about this, and I'm getting rid of my buckets!
Ha, ha, ha! Funny. More of this transparency, honesty and humor needed.
Scott, my fellow bald brother!
Great work!
I am in the process of starting a my mobile detail business.
I have lost everything.
I will make it work.
Thanks for your inspiration!
How's the business going Matt.. I'm planning on starting mine soon
o m g , i have never laughed so hard in my life . nice rant bro
The sarcasm in this is relentless and appeals to me entirely. Great video. Love it. :)
My new favorite video. I love this guy. I'm not a detailer but want to keep my cars decent looking. Not showroom quality but clean. Love the foam cannon. Good job on the video.

Scott... from one bald guy to another, wear a hat when you are in the sun more than a min or two. I see your scalp...please trust me and wear a sunblocking hat. I wear a bucket hat made by panama jack, claims UV proof. Super lightweight, I cannot wear baseball caps, they give me headaches. ;) just a thought...oh nice video ;)
As someone who isn't bald I wish someone would have told me something like this when I shaved my head years ago....I nearly died. Literally. I wish I didn't learn the hard way.
So you’re recommending Scott get three buckets a soap bucket a water bucket and a bucket hat lol and yes very good idea
@@phil1973 yo...its 1am. Im working while watching this.
Your comment literally had me dying. Seriously.
@@phil1973 @dallasautopaintcorrection
Lol glad to make people laugh
You are the best brother. I love when people call bullshit keep up the great work
This is great 😂 sounds like a ton of frustration that just built up over time just finally couldn’t take it anymore.. you are the real deal my friend
Absolutely awesome video
this is the first video I've seen of yours and IM CRYING LMFAO
i get so much enjoyment out of these videos. Such common sense and a real world detailer for the common man. Keep it up!!
Well I didn’t know this whole process was so profound and so scientific
Hey Scott. I've been wondering what the correct way to clean microfiber wash mitts is. How do you do so? I usually just throw mine in the clothes washer with regular old liquid detergent.
I'm wondering the same thing.
@Help Me Get 1000 Subscribers what???
Great video...the only change I would recommend for this process is to first wash off the initial snow foam and then do a second snow foam for when you use the multi-microfiber wipe down.
Think of it this way, the initial snow foam will contain numerous dust particles that can potentially scratch your paint; however, that risk is minimized by adding a second snow foam for a mitt wipe down!
Only issue is foam shampoo and car shampoo serve different purpose.
Ha great points! I just returned 2 dumb grit guards to Amazon and ordered another 2 pack of wash mitts. Just saved a lot of future hassle, soap and water. Thanks dude
Scott did not hold back 😂 had youtube goin on auto play while i was makin breakfast. Best coffee podcast ever
Scott, honest question:
Would you consider it of little benefit to use a 2 foam process? First application is allowed to dwell before rinse. Second to be washed then rinsed. Theory being the removal of contaminants in First application before applying a wash mitt.
I watched another pro video that followed the method you described.
I was literally just thinking this after i foamed my car for the first time and went to use 2 buckets. Like wtf am i doing putting more soap on a car that i cant even see anymore through the soap? So i just did the same thing, broke out my wash mits and threw out my buckets and grit guards!!
Your car must be pretty scratched up huh
Marlon Estrella super scratched. Like so many scratches I think the paint is starting to peel off. Eventually I won’t have to worry once the car is bare metal!
Matthew Steinkamp I done exactly what this douche bag said a few months ago and it ruined the ceramic coating because the wash mitt was rubbing dirt back and forth leaving swirl marks. All to save $1.99’x 2 5 gal buckets at Walmart.... Even if you wash it with 20 mits that cost $5 each still not going to stop those scratches
Snow foam isn't lubricated like shampoo it's there to cling to the dirt and pull it off .... Shampoos which are designed for bucket use are lubricated so you don't scratch the car
@@TheHairyHouseWife is the kool-aid good? Just watched a video of the chemical guys using the same soap in the cannon and wash bucket 🤔
Haha... great advice! Watched this with my facility crew during our lunch break! We learned something and enjoyed your presentation! Cheers!
This guy is the most sarcastic ever hahahha so good and also he just told us the truth! Ill remove them 2 buckets and grit guards from my basket which was going to cost $44 !!!
"I'll put a dollar in the jar."
Laughing out loud on that one.
Thanks for making me feel like an idiot. lol, I was gonna pull the trigger on the two bucket method. What kind of mitt do you recommend?
Your not bro lol all marketing which sadly the detaling industry is filled with it!
You don't need $20 in buckets only need $200 in wash mitts
I love your sarcasm it’s awesome! Keep it up, excellent advice.
Ive watch a ton of vids on washing cars ,just watched this and I wont watch another ,thank you ,you have saved me loads of ££££ and saved my paintwork ,thank you sir
Remembered in elementary science classes we did experiments with dirt in water and how long it took for the dirt and water to separate.
So the 2 bucket method never made sense to me. I just used multiple mitts.
Thanks for the laughs and the great videos Scott!
What about if you need to rinse off your several mits to wash another car right away? We are already at 6 mits a car
I stack my buckets inside each other so the bottom of the first one doesn't get dirty on the driveway!👌
Greetings from California. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. The truth is the truth, whether it’s said in Texas, California, or any where else. Thank you and God Bless you.
Just got an idea for my two redundant wash buckets, now use one for clean mitts and one for the dirty ones, Thanks Scott great video.
I always did that ,but I rinse the first foam and I wash it with my second foam cannon
Same. The point of the first one is to get as much of the grit off as possible before washing it with a mitt. My 1994 300ZX with black paint scratches even with the softest of the most expensive microfiber clothes on perfectly cleaned paint. It's just too soft to even breathe to much near it. Just wearing jeans with rivets near the paint scratches it.
Adam Richardson How do you dry it? Air dryer?
I've been doing like this since I drove my '84 Gran Prix. When I was told I needed 2 buckets, I thought????????explain why.....thank you for this video. So funny
I had an 84 grand prix. T tops and console shift. Loved that car
You are so right about this and thankfully I found this video before i started buying anything for my business.
Finally I found someone else who uses the exact same method I've been using for years.
Time saved = more money in my pocket.
I had a local detail guy tell me he can do 2 cars per day. I've told him I can wash and detail 3, so I can make the same money, while only working 4 days a week.
