Other than the more powerful and expensive generator I mentioned I did buy probably the biggest vacuum cleaner on the planet, did not make much odds :(
I’d just like to give a big thank you to you personally David for sharing your advice and guidance on TH-cam. Due to your channel I had my first VIP customer yesterday Who wants his cars to have a maintenance valet every 3-4 weeks after carrying out a full valet first. Thank you! I really appreciate the time and effort you put into your channel you have been a great help!
Thanks Greg. Genuinely love this. Out of interest which types of videos help the most for you? Talking head ones, or me being out and about Sharing tips as I go?
@@epicautomotivedetailing all your shows are full of great content! From watching you at work, to the business points you make clear that no one likes to talk about. And when you say things like “I just can’t live without it” I know I need to use that tool. All your shows are to the point and never watched one that I thought was rubbish! You present content clearly and with personality which makes it fun to watch and lean!
I'm a detailer, working out of my shop, but I use a cordless Stihl leaf blower for drying. It's insanely fast, and I think it could be good for you mobile guys, because maintenance drying cars with good protection takes literally a couple minutes. 👍✌
@@epicautomotivedetailing Oh that would be cool! It'd be interesting to see your opinion on them. Alot of people like those Big Boi style dedicated blowers, but they weren't for me. Way too slow and tedious. Good for emblems and gaps, but I use regular forced air for that.
@@jdisdetermined the blowers are actually just as good on exterior for the emblems, mirrors and other cracks/crevices. Especially if you’re mobile a compressor is something to consider with space and other factors, if you’re working out of a van or truck then I see why you would have both but personally I detail out of a hatchback.
Great information here. Absolutely SPOT ON. I've fell victim to almost every product you bring up in this video and you are definitely telling the truth my friend. Most practical information about detailing this year! If you are a weekend warrior or just getting started in detailing........LISTEN TO THIS MAN! He is giving great information here. Every time I go into my garage.......I cringe......because I have a serious problem watching TH-cam and then thinking "Oh man...I NEED this......and as quick as possible too! or "There goes that wallet going empty again!". I recently got to a point in my life where I just want to get rid of every single product (with the exception of a few quality ones I use all the time) and completely clean out my garage. Another sickness I had(have) is with microfibers! My wife is like "Do you really need 500 microfibers?!" Yeah......she speaks the truth once again. I have surmised that I really just want to find a good quality product line (one company) and purchase the basics needed to detail my vehicles from that product line. Keep it all in a cabinet neatly in the garage. Something like Optimum, Koch Chemie, Swissvax, Polishangel, Autoglym,.......or whomever. I am an enthusiast so I don't mind paying a premium if the product line is really good. But I truly need to consolidate down to the basics of everything including my tools, etc.
I have recently purchased a warm air dryer, it is really good for removing water from door shuts , grills, engine bays etc. It also works really well on coated cars, just chases the water away. But I agree that it is slower so I only use it on the high end maintenance details where my time is priced accordingly and not on the run of the mill valets.
This channel is a gold mine, touching subjects no one wants to talk about or share but you go there and give us strength not to be pushed around. Good tools cost money which I think customers don’t realise then it takes skill and time to get the finish they want which is not always recognised. One thing I am struggling with is how do you go about getting a website so I can get listed with google business . Plus do you offer driveway training days so people can get hands on experience with yourself (similar to what car cleaning Guru offers) something I definitely would take up!
Dave I enjoy watching your videos and I started watching your channel about 7 months ago so I am catching up on them. You mention air freshners and I sprayed a strawberry scent in a client's Corvette it smelled nice. I found out later that the client was allergic to Strawberries and I had to go back and use an ozone generator to get rid of the scent. Great tips and it's funny to see how many detailers buy all the stuff you mentioned and the latest and greatest toys. Your knowledge and experience is very helpful the mistakes you made in your business will help others be successful and avoid these mistakes. Have a wonderful day and another great video.
As a mobile detailer i suggest to try some time not those bs car dryers. Try a big leaf blower , like worx or similar witch you can find in UK market with circle wide nozzle mouth ...it makes the drying piece of cake.... I hate those funcy car dryers like this on th video. Much love from Greece keep up your great chanell
Good to impart some of that life wisdom you have collected along the way Dave. The simple formula though is 'don't buy cheap'. We've all done that and I am sure have bought stuff (I know I have) that turned out to be mostly pointless, either through deficient quality or lack of return through low use. Eventually (assuming possession of enough brain cells) we funnel down to the 'good stuff' and carry on from there. Making mistakes has it's upside too. You learn from them (the bigger the cost of mistake = the greater chance of learning from it). ... and yeah - those air fresheners do not last ... and smell crap ... mostly :) Big thumbs up Dave!
Thanks Karl. Brushes need to be tougher. I could design something that would be amazing. Think companies need to think more the user instead of releasing advanced versions of a big brush 😅
I was given a free air freshener at a car show. Hung it on the dash where it was touching the front of the stereo. Big mistake. Stuck to it and dissolved the plastic where it was touching. Just discovered the channel and enjoyed the content. Keep up the good work.
great video as always Dave, yes I've learned my lesson with cheap wheel brushes too, the amount of stress and strain those things go through means you definately need to buy the more expensive ones as they will last a hell of a lot longer.
@@epicautomotivedetailing I've had zero luck with all wheel brushes unfortunately. The handle on the EZ Detail brush keeps falling off on me, and with the Speedmaster the tip keeps falling off
@@epicautomotivedetailing no didn't put me off, quite the opposite. Should just buy the right gear. I only do car detailing part time, so haven't put a lot of money into it. Video was great information none the less. Love your videos, very informative
@@josephodonnell6994 thanks mate my business playlist is more informative to help people starting out. Not everything I say is right for some people but happy to share what I learned over past 15 years
Agree on the car blower, for valeting, they're a time killer, I remove most of the water with a towel and finish off with the blower on door shuts etc. If I've got a detail in then I'll remove all the water with the blower. Got to use the right tools at the right time👍
It's not all bad. I bought a set of 3 microfibre type wheel woolies on Aliexpress for about £7 and they've been brilliant for someone doing their own car at least. I've had them nearly a year now and they're still good.. Again for my own use, I bought a Hyundai pressure washer. 1700w for the same price as the Karcher 1400w and it's quieter too.
@@epicautomotivedetailing Yep, just noting that not everything is bad. I always buy the best I can, but sometimes the cheaper stuff isn't all bad. Sometimes you can spend a lot of money on a top name brand and it might not be as good as a cheaper one that costs less and performs better, hence the Karcher washer example. The Hyundai one is better in just about every way.
Wow this video is brilliant. The part on the rubbish foam pads made me laugh as I’ve learnt the hard way whilst been a tight wad. My car dryer (GT) was the best thing I ever bought as it couples as dog dryer also, hehhehe. I agree I wouldn’t use a dryer in a valeting service.
Yes been there with the wheel brush etc yes the first three buy once and quality and not cheap. As for pressure washers be very careful as lots are total crap. The Karcher 5.10 I just rebuilt for £200 and it's working great now but I stick with one make and then swap bits, as hoses are expensive. I have a expensive electric Kew its about 20 years old and use it for motocross and it's has never been apart and works great but heavy, but have it fitted in my van with a water tank it has never let me down.
This man is very good I've have had a lot off tips of him I've just started a little thing with cars and started to make a bit off can now so many thanks to you 👍 😀 keep up the good work it's very much appreciated good on you 👍
Done the same with other products or equipment, I think most valets do, glad you made the point how different it is to been a mobile valeter compared to a detailer in a workshop, it is a different world, great funny vid.
@@epicautomotivedetailing I think my worst purchase was getting a more powerful and expensive generator, lasted half the time as my cheaper one, you live and learn.
Really good vid. And have wasted £s on things. (Had a wheel woolie that also just fell apart from a big brand)😂 good advise as always. Thinking of a car dryer too👍☂️
Thanks Paul, my current wheel Woolies have been used for 12 months a good 5 days a week and started to have tiny bits come off but when I look at cost per month to own these it's a no brianer for my business. Absolutely love them 👌
Hi Dave Yep, I have also gone a bit mad with kit that never gets used. The bigboi pro has come in handy for blowing the dog dry though. Its also very handy for motorbikes. Anyway Great video Cheers
Too negative about most of the products. I'd venture a guess that most of you're subs are, like myself, enthusiasts. We're not necessarily fighting the clock or turning a pound note. We're simply enjoying our hobby. An air blower, for example, sure it takes longer to dry a car compared to a towel so I get you want to avoid it. I really do. But, for an enthusiasts it a god send. Not just for touchless reasons or engine bays. It has many uses that us driveway warriors can enjoy. I would have preferred to have seen, perhaps, the odd comment on how products can be invaluable yet a hindrance if under time constraints. Still, enjoyed the video and your channel.
The jet wash bit sounded like my tinder reviews. Air blower is a good tool but wish I spent them money on a water filter first. That’s so much more usefully for even an Armature.
tbf as a halfords employee the majority of halfords brand car care is rubbish but i do have to say the snow foam gun and the big green microfiber drying towel are very good and if your on a budget dont shy away from them, they are worth the money imo.
Agree with all of that except the vortex gun. If you've got a big enough van with space for the compressor you can use them for various jobs on every valet but I understand what you're saying if you've only got a small van.
The most recent one I’ve bought and hated was that turtle wax 3in1 ceramic Detailer. It’s probably a personal preference thing but just was so hard to work with. I was having to go back over it with other detailers to get the streaks off. I was using it as it instructed but yeah, that one just isn’t my cup of tea at all. However my warm drier is great for warming up my hands on the hose after washing in the winter haha!
@@epicautomotivedetailing glad it’s not just me that has experienced it! Just for the price tag of 18 quid or s, the results and user experience just weren’t what I would expect of a “premium product”. I’m sure some of their new range is great but that just put me off a bit! I like infinity wax’s rapid detailer. Really glossy and easy to use. Not the most durable detailer in the world but sure that is what wax is technically for haha! Thanks mate! Enjoy your weekend😁
Hi I looking at your videos I appreciate everything what you doing your job your TH-cam videos!! Thank you for the videos! I just think to start and my self my company Mobile Car wash because I wor to a car wash 4 years and I know you can make a good money when you work for your self! My pressure washer it a petrol ⛽ one 3600 psi 240 bar. I can say it very powerful !
Even as a weekend warrior im guilting of buying a cheap wheel cleaning brush and the metal insert rbristles are arrached to scratched the hell out of one of my alloys the first time I used it, the wheel was quite badky kerbed anyway so in the end it made little difference but the lesson was leant
I've got the Halfords wheel brush. It's only done 2 washes so far. The main thing I regret is not researching more before I bought all my cleaning stuff. Wasted money on some things.
Good video. We've all bought 'cheap' things, thinking they will be great, but most are an absolute waste of money. I have a phrase That I tell people all the time, "No one was ever sorry they bought the finest". Buy cheap and you keep telling yourself, I should have got the good one. I bought a refrigerator in 1995, the best one out there. It still runs like it did in 1995. Lots of money, but how many refrigerators has the 'price conscious' person bought in 26 years. Buy a new car that doesn't have all the 'sh.t' on it and you be kicking yourself in the ass every time you get in it. Buy the finest and enjoy every day you have it.
Crack on mate have fall into the same pitfalls but great to hear you advice the blower I only use on the wheels and the brake calipers and yes sometimes on the engine bay door shuts rest of the bodywork get the Shami out
Great video Dave , cheap wheel brushes bought a few of them ,shedding more bristles than a tree sheds leaves in the autumn !!! bought a cheap clay bar of Amazon ages ago now that was shit !!! Fake lambswool wash mit off ebay that was like a molting dog !!!! 1.1mm orifice nozzle/jet for my snow foam lance didn't work to well on a 1800psi pressure washer ! Thought my jet wash wash f##ked nealy went out and bought a new one . Turtle wax ceramic spray/coating to much pi##ing about to get it right. All the best :)
Great heads up Dave! I hate air fresheners, simply couldn't find the best one so far and bought so many in the past, waste of money. Same with the stuffs ordered from Aliexpress, all ended in the bin.. Although, I would love a car dryer lol :D
i bought something like that wheel wash noodle out of homebargains and looks the exact same but it was a duster in there and only £3 lol... worked ok on my multispoke alloys as the gap was large enough to get it in
I can share with you some of these experiences being a former mobile car valeter and being Too eager to please my regular customers with magic trees and auto smart blast cans they preferred smelling the natural interiors of their cars. Also buying very cheap nylon bristled wheel brushes the same experiences of tips cracking and dropping off and the bristles matting together- did you find the heat shield behind the brake callipers used to eat through wheel woolies and brushes?. I can agree with you that using an air dryer was time consuming especially as it was a vacuum cleaner/blower it added another hour on a job! No I have given it up and just concentrate on my car and my wife’s car in our garage. I have now binned the bottom of the range machine mart pressure washer in favour of my new kranzle k7/122 ts with all the bits and bobs and foam cannon- what a machine I wouldn’t go back to anything else it’s the best money spent.
Thanks Ian yes those heat shields were the biggest killer of brushes. I now got the thinnest of wheel Woolies which pretty much fits in all wheels now so it makes life so much easier. What people don't realise is not only do the cheaper products waste money they also waste time eg short hose pressure washers are a prime example. Thanks for sharing it will help others for sure 🙏
I bought 5litres of cheap shampoo and regretted it! Dave remind me the link for the fb advice group please I have a few questions about starting up 👍 loving your work
Since I have a house and yard no sense buying an auto blower. Got a 200 mph ryobi leaf blower i use to blast out the leaky trim parts, nooks n crannies and after engine cleaning.
I must agree ive bought the odd 1 you have mentioned and they have been a complete waste of time and money. As for the blow drier again i agree if your mobile doing 6 - 8 vehicle's a day it just isn't going to work out, but its good if your only doing 1 or 2 cars a days where you'll have the time to use it without slowing you down
@@epicautomotivedetailing its a wired one as there's times i just don't get the chances to watch any 😆 but its always good when i do as always something new or can relate to
Using a warm air blower to get all the water out of wing mirrors, window rubbers and my Audi honeycomb grill makes the 2 minutes of effort more than worthwhile IMO
In my experience the only product that I’ve really really hated was meguiars ultimate wash n wax. At first I thought it was great; really foamy, smelled really nice and left a nice shine after washing. However if you plan on using this product along with a wax or other sealant protection etc. Don’t buy it. After applying meguiars hybrid ceramic wax to a fully washed and clayed car, a week later following a wash with megs wash n wax - the hydrophobics are gone! This is apparently because the wax (within the wash and wax) sits on top of the wax/sealant underneath. Therefore blocking your protection. I continued to have this experice with other waxes like meguiars gold class paste, BILT hamber and turtle wax ceramic. All because of that goddamn wash n wax
I got wash n wax. I also bought their ceramic spray. Both worked well together. But I want to wax my car this month. Will the wash and wax have a negative effect on that.
@@Bikertyke yeah I’m using Autoglym pure shampoo now because it’s just a pure shampoo, no gloss enhancers or wax. So therefore it works perfect for maintaining matte/satin paint jobs and ceramic coated cars. It removes the dirt and brings the hydrophobics back to heavily soiled protection
Regarding paint touch ups. Don't ask! When I do paint correction, or scratch repairs, I also do the paint touch ups. If it's a non standard color, anything other than black, white or silver, I explain to the client he should get his touch up paint from the dealership or a car paint store before I get there in case it's needed. If it's black, white or silver, I carry those color. It takes 10-15 minute to do all the touch ups unless the car is a disaster, so for me, it's part of the paint correction or scratch removal, I just do it and explain to the client that I did it and it would be important for him to have his touch up paint handy in case more paint chips appear because a paint chip will turn into a rusted pannel if left unrepaired. In 11 years, no client has ever complained.
I almost thought about one of those little steamers.. the glad I read some more figuring out they have such a tiny amount of water in it, waste of time. So I'll be moving looking to a bigger unit
I can vouch for the fake wheel woolies being a poor buy. They looked great when dry and were nicely made to be honest. However when I first dunked it into a bucket it shrunk down to a diameter barely bigger than the handle. This means that the handle then ends up very close to the surface of the wheel at all times. To top things off mine had the little conical sleeve thing behind the wooly head as shown in the video. The edge of which caught and flicked off the paint from two areas of corrosion on two consecutive spokes. So I've now got two very obviously different coloured spots on one of my wheels 😤
Car dryers are great for that but in reality if you're doing a basic clean for maintenance valet I wouldn't bother. If it was a major detail for example then definitely
I got the Autobrite woolies and the swines have come off the handles , only had em 6 months . Done all the things your suppose to do with em so well pee'ed off with those .
Thank you for this vid some amazing “real talk” I wanted to ask in your links below section you have put Yum Cars I checked out there site and came across this MTM Magnum 28 kit which cost £130 I’m currently looking for a decent snow foam lance or kit and wanted to get your take on it any help and advise would be much appreciated. Thank you!
Hello Bharat, it all depends what you want it for. For regular valeting the mtm pack is the best For me and what I do. There are cheaper options with stubby guns but they do come with negatives
@@epicautomotivedetailing thanks for the prompt reply So to keep it simples I’ve only just got into the detailing game and I’m building my Arsenal currently work on my own ride however soon going to be expanding this onto detailing friends and family rides and then I’ll see it goes I’ve so far purchased mainly Meguiars products and a little bit of Halfords very little Halfords stuff tho lol! Oh and I’ve purchased the Rupes Bigfoot LHR 15ES I don’t have thousands and thousands of bucks to spend in one shot nor do I even want to however that being said I’d rather save up for decent equipment than to double buy for the sake of going cheap (I guess exactly what your vid is about)
@@bharatsoni52 so if it's a long term thing then yes mtm is golden with stubby gun. Alternatively go for something like nilfisk p180 which is a good all rounder with many customisable options
@@epicautomotivedetailing Good morning I have a question to ask please and can not find a clear simple answer online and was hoping you can help. What is the difference between the Gtechniq C1 lacquer ceramic coating and the Gtechniq Crystal serum light? As always any help is appreciated.
@@epicautomotivedetailing I know but if Ime being honest it's turned me in to a bit of a brand snob lol. Great video though picked up a few tips n tricks from you over the last 18 months thanks👍👍
My worst buy was definitely a cheap crap patent copied Chinese stubby gun. I used it for the first time on my brand new cupra ateca's first wash having used quick release fittings before and the nozzle blew out and put a 20p size dent in the A pillar just missing the windscreen. When I checked the nozzles to the quick release fittings I realized with a hard pull they all came out but the lovely Chinese seller ignored the picture of the dent and said they will part refund me as a kind gesture which was nice ......... NOT!!!!!!! . I only now pay the extra for quality , learnt my lesson for sure
I am planning to buy a pressure car washer. First time buyer and I just want to clean my car with it like I clean my car once in a week. Can I suggest. I'm in Pakistan so here we have these ones. Hyundai , total, kracher , pioneer 110 to 135 bar, samco, ingco high pressure washer 1400w with maximum pressure of 130 bar psi 1900
Cheaper products from Halfords for example are more aimed at the weekend washer than someone using them every day , that being said, my dad used to say when buying expensive gear - buy once cry once 😂
My car dryer is God 🙏 doesn't matter what drying towel you buy you can never get the water from under the wing mirrors grills etc i don't know how IV coped without it 👍
Work smarter not harder and you gotta realise buy cheap you buy twice .. I don’t think valeting should be done on a budget it looks unprofessional in my opinion , I use premium products , not only does it work better it saves loads of time and the results speak for there’s self
I think the cost factor might put few people off who are just starting out. Along the line many people do use it but your average Joe it's not a big enough deal for them
Car dryers are a nice idea but with the evolution of hybrid ceramic sprays that you apply to a wet car, they are not needed anymore. Everyone buy's into them because youtube "detailers" like to use them but the only reason they are using them is because they're mostly paid to!
To be fair I know pretty much every other TH-camr detailer and there is only one I know who got one for free which they said in a video. Sadly we don't get any money unless it's to make a high quality commercial. Having said that I just bought a £50 Amazon let dryer and it's more powerful than my old expensive car dryer that blew up so interested to film it next week. I mainly make do with towels as I go through loads of maintenance valets
What's the worst car cleaning purchase you ever made? Let me know in the comments ⬇️
Other than the more powerful and expensive generator I mentioned I did buy probably the biggest vacuum cleaner on the planet, did not make much odds :(
@@HitchinValeting I got a Charles which is great

@@josephodonnell6994 thanks mate my business playlist is more informative to help people starting out. Not everything I say is right for some people but happy to share what I learned over past 15 years
Dave some good advice as always, totally agree about cheap brushes, we’ve all done it and learnt!
Thanks Alistair 🙏👍
100% agree with the top 10!
Agree on the car blower, for valeting, they're a time killer, I remove most of the water with a towel and finish off with the blower on door shuts etc. If I've got a detail in then I'll remove all the water with the blower. Got to use the right tools at the right time👍
It's not all bad. I bought a set of 3 microfibre type wheel woolies on Aliexpress for about £7 and they've been brilliant for someone doing their own car at least. I've had them nearly a year now and they're still good..
Again for my own use, I bought a Hyundai pressure washer. 1700w for the same price as the Karcher 1400w and it's quieter too.
I've been buying some cheap products and nearly got enough for another video but this time around I'm showing the good ones I found
@@epicautomotivedetailing Yep, just noting that not everything is bad. I always buy the best I can, but sometimes the cheaper stuff isn't all bad. Sometimes you can spend a lot of money on a top name brand and it might not be as good as a cheaper one that costs less and performs better, hence the Karcher washer example. The Hyundai one is better in just about every way.
Wow this video is brilliant. The part on the rubbish foam pads made me laugh as I’ve learnt the hard way whilst been a tight wad. My car dryer (GT) was the best thing I ever bought as it couples as dog dryer also, hehhehe. I agree I wouldn’t use a dryer in a valeting service.
Thanks mate appreciate it 🙂
Yes been there with the wheel brush etc yes the first three buy once and quality and not cheap. As for pressure washers be very careful as lots are total crap. The Karcher 5.10 I just rebuilt for £200 and it's working great now but I stick with one make and then swap bits, as hoses are expensive. I have a expensive electric Kew its about 20 years old and use it for motocross and it's has never been apart and works great but heavy, but have it fitted in my van with a water tank it has never let me down.
Have been following you for a while and Pan, love your videos thanks 🙂
Thanks George 🙂
Great content and good channel- glad to have found you !!
Thank you Craig
Brilliant I like your videos man because get knowledge about beginners and more funny way but reality how people behave about your efforts 😂
Thanks mate I try not to be too serious as the world would be a boring place if everyone was like that
This man is very good I've have had a lot off tips of him I've just started a little thing with cars and started to make a bit off can now so many thanks to you 👍 😀 keep up the good work it's very much appreciated good on you 👍
I meant cash 💸
Thanks Martin 🙏
I laughed aloud at the first 3 as this was me all over 🤣
Lol we all been there my friend
Done the same with other products or equipment, I think most valets do, glad you made the point how different it is to been a mobile valeter compared to a detailer in a workshop, it is a different world, great funny vid.
Thanks mate. Wasn't trying to be funny lol. If anything I was in a fowl mood . Spent way too much time with the family for school holidays 😅
@@epicautomotivedetailing I think my worst purchase was getting a more powerful and expensive generator, lasted half the time as my cheaper one, you live and learn.
Spunked £100 quid 😂👊🏻 yep been there great video mate I really enjoy watching your videos..
Thank you Colin. Not everyones cup of tea but try to be as real as possible
Hi Dave,I have the same thing,bought wheel brushes and wheel Woolies,best to get the dearer brand and will last longer in the long run.
Hi Steven, wheel brushes are so important as they get a hammering so 100% on the expensive ones
Really good vid. And have wasted £s on things. (Had a wheel woolie that also just fell apart from a big brand)😂 good advise as always. Thinking of a car dryer too👍☂️
Thanks Paul, my current wheel Woolies have been used for 12 months a good 5 days a week and started to have tiny bits come off but when I look at cost per month to own these it's a no brianer for my business. Absolutely love them 👌
Hi Dave, it's evening time here in South Africa, so I'll keep it simple and say Hi😅... another great video, thanks for the tips, keep them coming.👍
Hello from UK hope you enjoying weather. We have rain again 😅
You guys are blessed with the rain, it's bad here by us, can't even remember when last we had a lovely thunderstorm🙈
Hi Dave
Yep, I have also gone a bit mad with kit that never gets used. The bigboi pro has come in handy for blowing the dog dry though.
Its also very handy for motorbikes.
Anyway
Great video
Cheers
Thanks Kevin how's the DJI osmo action going? Are you filming
@@epicautomotivedetailing I have done some filming, but I've been soooo busy of late, I've not had time to do anything with it.
@@dalydetailz2120 it's good fun definitely worth it if you get time
Well done Dave and you made me laugh a dead rat on a stick ha ha ha Aussie guy here 👍🇦🇺
Thanks mate. Hope all is well in Australia ☀️
So with the exception of #10, it's very much a video pushing the old addage of "Buy cheap, buy twice".
I can relate to a LOT of these.
Yeah mate so many mistakes. I thought I'd chuck in number 10 because i like a bit of controversy lol
Brill vlog Dave....very near bought a tonne of air fresheners but cancelled last minute....bought my fair share of cheap brushes but have learnt...
Lol we all do it
Hi dave ,love the videos, helped me alot valeting ..
Thank you 🙏
Too negative about most of the products. I'd venture a guess that most of you're subs are, like myself, enthusiasts. We're not necessarily fighting the clock or turning a pound note. We're simply enjoying our hobby. An air blower, for example, sure it takes longer to dry a car compared to a towel so I get you want to avoid it. I really do. But, for an enthusiasts it a god send. Not just for touchless reasons or engine bays. It has many uses that us driveway warriors can enjoy. I would have preferred to have seen, perhaps, the odd comment on how products can be invaluable yet a hindrance if under time constraints. Still, enjoyed the video and your channel.
Thanks Adrian I'm just sharing my own personal experiences but fully understand 🙏
The jet wash bit sounded like my tinder reviews. Air blower is a good tool but wish I spent them money on a water filter first. That’s so much more usefully for even an Armature.
Thanks for watching mate
tbf as a halfords employee the majority of halfords brand car care is rubbish but i do have to say the snow foam gun and the big green microfiber drying towel are very good and if your on a budget dont shy away from them, they are worth the money imo.
Agree with all of that except the vortex gun. If you've got a big enough van with space for the compressor you can use them for various jobs on every valet but I understand what you're saying if you've only got a small van.
Thanks mate. If I had the demand for air cannon cleaning then I'd definitely reconsider.
The most recent one I’ve bought and hated was that turtle wax 3in1 ceramic Detailer. It’s probably a personal preference thing but just was so hard to work with. I was having to go back over it with other detailers to get the streaks off. I was using it as it instructed but yeah, that one just isn’t my cup of tea at all. However my warm drier is great for warming up my hands on the hose after washing in the winter haha!
Yep 100% with you on that. I've tried to be fair with it but it's just good enough for the everyday user
@@epicautomotivedetailing glad it’s not just me that has experienced it! Just for the price tag of 18 quid or s, the results and user experience just weren’t what I would expect of a “premium product”. I’m sure some of their new range is great but that just put me off a bit! I like infinity wax’s rapid detailer. Really glossy and easy to use. Not the most durable detailer in the world but sure that is what wax is technically for haha! Thanks mate! Enjoy your weekend😁
Hi I looking at your videos I appreciate everything what you doing your job your TH-cam videos!! Thank you for the videos! I just think to start and my self my company Mobile Car wash because I wor to a car wash 4 years and I know you can make a good money when you work for your self! My pressure washer it a petrol ⛽ one 3600 psi 240 bar. I can say it very powerful !
Thanks mate appreciate the kind words 😁
Even as a weekend warrior im guilting of buying a cheap wheel cleaning brush and the metal insert rbristles are arrached to scratched the hell out of one of my alloys the first time I used it, the wheel was quite badky kerbed anyway so in the end it made little difference but the lesson was leant
I've got the Halfords wheel brush. It's only done 2 washes so far. The main thing I regret is not researching more before I bought all my cleaning stuff. Wasted money on some things.
For weekend warriors it will do better but for regular users its not so good
Good video. We've all bought 'cheap' things, thinking they will be great, but most are an absolute waste of money. I have a phrase That I tell people all the time, "No one was ever sorry they bought the finest". Buy cheap and you keep telling yourself, I should have got the good one. I bought a refrigerator in 1995, the best one out there. It still runs like it did in 1995. Lots of money, but how many refrigerators has the 'price conscious' person bought in 26 years. Buy a new car that doesn't have all the 'sh.t' on it and you be kicking yourself in the ass every time you get in it. Buy the finest and enjoy every day you have it.
Such a true saying my friend. Thank you for chipping in and commenting 👏🙏
I use a battery powered leave blower to blow out the nooks and crannies, works a charm and is very fast. No fuss with a hose and stuff.
I’ve got one of those Halfords brushes mate. Apart from been pretty flimsy, it’s not that bad except when you get splash back 🥲
Give it a few more weeks 😬. Mine started ok but didn't take long till it was ruined
Crack on mate have fall into the same pitfalls but great to hear you advice the blower I only use on the wheels and the brake calipers and yes sometimes on the engine bay door shuts rest of the bodywork get the Shami out
2:21 are the ones from RAC good
Just found your channel. This was a great video. Well done.
Thanks so much mate
Great video Dave , cheap wheel brushes bought a few of them ,shedding more bristles than a tree sheds leaves in the autumn !!! bought a cheap clay bar of Amazon ages ago now that was shit !!! Fake lambswool wash mit off ebay that was like a molting dog !!!! 1.1mm orifice nozzle/jet for my snow foam lance didn't work to well on a 1800psi pressure washer ! Thought my jet wash wash f##ked nealy went out and bought a new one . Turtle wax ceramic spray/coating to much pi##ing about to get it right. All the best :)
The list never ends lol. We all do it 😅
Great advices Dave! 👌🏻🤩👍🏻
Thanks mate
Great heads up Dave! I hate air fresheners, simply couldn't find the best one so far and bought so many in the past, waste of money. Same with the stuffs ordered from Aliexpress, all ended in the bin.. Although, I would love a car dryer lol :D
Thanks mate 🙏
i bought something like that wheel wash noodle out of homebargains and looks the exact same but it was a duster in there and only £3 lol... worked ok on my multispoke alloys as the gap was large enough to get it in
Nice one we don't have his me bargains round here but I'll keep my eyes peeled 👀
I can share with you some of these experiences being a former mobile car valeter and being Too eager to please my regular customers with magic trees and auto smart blast cans they preferred smelling the natural interiors of their cars. Also buying very cheap nylon bristled wheel brushes the same experiences of tips cracking and dropping off and the bristles matting together- did you find the heat shield behind the brake callipers used to eat through wheel woolies and brushes?. I can agree with you that using an air dryer was time consuming especially as it was a vacuum cleaner/blower it added another hour on a job! No I have given it up and just concentrate on my car and my wife’s car in our garage. I have now binned the bottom of the range machine mart pressure washer in favour of my new kranzle k7/122 ts with all the bits and bobs and foam cannon- what a machine I wouldn’t go back to anything else it’s the best money spent.
Thanks Ian yes those heat shields were the biggest killer of brushes. I now got the thinnest of wheel Woolies which pretty much fits in all wheels now so it makes life so much easier. What people don't realise is not only do the cheaper products waste money they also waste time eg short hose pressure washers are a prime example. Thanks for sharing it will help others for sure 🙏
I bought 5litres of cheap shampoo and regretted it! Dave remind me the link for the fb advice group please I have a few questions about starting up 👍 loving your work
Thanks mate the group is detailing network
Spot on this video
Watching it already 🤩
Thanks my friend
A "friend" bought a leaf blower as an air dryer and thought he was the dogs bollocks because it was cheaper 🤣
Fair play guess the principal is the same. That's worth a test 👍
Since I have a house and yard no sense buying an auto blower. Got a 200 mph ryobi leaf blower i use to blast out the leaky trim parts, nooks n crannies and after engine cleaning.
I was in autozone needing some car cleaning supplies. Just don't go with their brand, instead go with Mother's, Turtle Wax, and the names we know.
Amen
I must agree ive bought the odd 1 you have mentioned and they have been a complete waste of time and money.
As for the blow drier again i agree if your mobile doing 6 - 8 vehicle's a day it just isn't going to work out, but its good if your only doing 1 or 2 cars a days where you'll have the time to use it without slowing you down
Thanks for watching mate 🙂
@@epicautomotivedetailing its a wired one as there's times i just don't get the chances to watch any 😆 but its always good when i do as always something new or can relate to
@@LothianValet yeh I know what you mean I spent way too much time working
I had one of the halfords wheel brushes, useless was an understatement I got my money back and bought the ez brush and never had any problems
Its a shame because the idea is great but surely these companies should see what people are saying and make them better
@@epicautomotivedetailing it's like they only want your money and don't care about the quality of the products they sell
Great idea for a video 👍🤙
Thanks Tony 😁
You forgot them shitty pack of detail brushes you can get on Ali express. Bloody terrible but had to see what they were like 😆
Using a warm air blower to get all the water out of wing mirrors, window rubbers and my Audi honeycomb grill makes the 2 minutes of effort more than worthwhile IMO
Fair play very good point 👏
Me too. Front grill, door mirrors, wheels and around number plates. Anywhere water runs after drying with towel. Takes too long for rest of car.
What is the best protection for the body side molding keeping it looking great?
Thank you,
Steve.
So many choices my friend each has its own benefit depends on what for
Wow. I have a shelf of shame, sounds like you have an entire shed! Haha
"Shelf of shame" 🤣🤣 love it 😀
I have a shed of shame dude lol
"Rat on a stick"....made me laugh!
closest thing i could describe it as lol
In my experience the only product that I’ve really really hated was meguiars ultimate wash n wax. At first I thought it was great; really foamy, smelled really nice and left a nice shine after washing. However if you plan on using this product along with a wax or other sealant protection etc. Don’t buy it. After applying meguiars hybrid ceramic wax to a fully washed and clayed car, a week later following a wash with megs wash n wax - the hydrophobics are gone! This is apparently because the wax (within the wash and wax) sits on top of the wax/sealant underneath. Therefore blocking your protection. I continued to have this experice with other waxes like meguiars gold class paste, BILT hamber and turtle wax ceramic. All because of that goddamn wash n wax
Thanks for sharing your personal feedback. This will certainly add value to people who read the comments section 👌
I got wash n wax. I also bought their ceramic spray. Both worked well together. But I want to wax my car this month. Will the wash and wax have a negative effect on that.
@@Bikertyke really! That’s great, I’ve had terrible experiences with wash n wax and ceramic spray. I wash the car and all the hydrophobics are gone
@@fraforgt-350r2 Mine as worked for 3 month's with Maguire's ceramic spray. But I didn't include wax before I did it.
@@Bikertyke yeah I’m using Autoglym pure shampoo now because it’s just a pure shampoo, no gloss enhancers or wax. So therefore it works perfect for maintaining matte/satin paint jobs and ceramic coated cars. It removes the dirt and brings the hydrophobics back to heavily soiled protection
Would you recommend a nilfisk presher washer and if so will a stuby gun fit it .thanks
I have a nilfisk p180. It's my favourite one out of all of them
100% with you on all you said
Lol my scholl concept blue spider pads were flying away just the same way polishing in full sun in +28 black cars
gosh yeh im not a fan of polishing outside
Great video
Thanks Mike
I have had a good experience with the halfords wheel brush
Nice one good to hear 👍
Regarding paint touch ups. Don't ask! When I do paint correction, or scratch repairs, I also do the paint touch ups. If it's a non standard color, anything other than black, white or silver, I explain to the client he should get his touch up paint from the dealership or a car paint store before I get there in case it's needed. If it's black, white or silver, I carry those color. It takes 10-15 minute to do all the touch ups unless the car is a disaster, so for me, it's part of the paint correction or scratch removal, I just do it and explain to the client that I did it and it would be important for him to have his touch up paint handy in case more paint chips appear because a paint chip will turn into a rusted pannel if left unrepaired. In 11 years, no client has ever complained.
Is that super resin EAU de toilette or EAU de parfum? Asking for a friend 👍 good vid btw
thanks mate
I almost thought about one of those little steamers.. the glad I read some more figuring out they have such a tiny amount of water in it, waste of time. So I'll be moving looking to a bigger unit
i hardly use steamers these days now
I can vouch for the fake wheel woolies being a poor buy. They looked great when dry and were nicely made to be honest. However when I first dunked it into a bucket it shrunk down to a diameter barely bigger than the handle. This means that the handle then ends up very close to the surface of the wheel at all times. To top things off mine had the little conical sleeve thing behind the wooly head as shown in the video. The edge of which caught and flicked off the paint from two areas of corrosion on two consecutive spokes. So I've now got two very obviously different coloured spots on one of my wheels 😤
Thanks for sharing mate this will help people for sure
What wud u say is the best thing to get water out behind the wing mirrors?
Car dryers are great for that but in reality if you're doing a basic clean for maintenance valet I wouldn't bother. If it was a major detail for example then definitely
I got the Autobrite woolies and the swines have come off the handles , only had em 6 months . Done all the things your suppose to do with em so well pee'ed off with those .
Haven't tried those yet mate so wouldn't know myself. My yum ones have been a godsend
Same happened to me cheap wheel woolies I was left with the handle 🤣🤣
You live and learn mate 😉
Thank you for this vid some amazing “real talk” I wanted to ask in your links below section you have put Yum Cars I checked out there site and came across this MTM Magnum 28 kit which cost £130
I’m currently looking for a decent snow foam lance or kit and wanted to get your take on it any help and advise would be much appreciated. Thank you!
Hello Bharat, it all depends what you want it for. For regular valeting the mtm pack is the best For me and what I do. There are cheaper options with stubby guns but they do come with negatives
@@epicautomotivedetailing thanks for the prompt reply
So to keep it simples I’ve only just got into the detailing game and I’m building my Arsenal currently work on my own ride however soon going to be expanding this onto detailing friends and family rides and then I’ll see it goes
I’ve so far purchased mainly Meguiars products and a little bit of Halfords very little Halfords stuff tho lol! Oh and I’ve purchased the Rupes Bigfoot LHR 15ES
I don’t have thousands and thousands of bucks to spend in one shot nor do I even want to however that being said I’d rather save up for decent equipment than to double buy for the sake of going cheap (I guess exactly what your vid is about)
@@bharatsoni52 so if it's a long term thing then yes mtm is golden with stubby gun. Alternatively go for something like nilfisk p180 which is a good all rounder with many customisable options
@@epicautomotivedetailing awesome I’ll look into the P180.
Thanks again for the help and advise
@@epicautomotivedetailing Good morning
I have a question to ask please and can not find a clear simple answer online and was hoping you can help.
What is the difference between the Gtechniq C1 lacquer ceramic coating and the Gtechniq Crystal serum light?
As always any help is appreciated.
I've made the same mistake with fake wheel Woolies. Bought them off eBay think I got 4 washes out of them then they just fell apart
We all been there mate. It's all part of the learning curve
@@epicautomotivedetailing I know but if Ime being honest it's turned me in to a bit of a brand snob lol. Great video though picked up a few tips n tricks from you over the last 18 months thanks👍👍
@@cartorque4202 thanks mate appreciate it 🙏
My worst buy was definitely a cheap crap patent copied Chinese stubby gun. I used it for the first time on my brand new cupra ateca's first wash having used quick release fittings before and the nozzle blew out and put a 20p size dent in the A pillar just missing the windscreen. When I checked the nozzles to the quick release fittings I realized with a hard pull they all came out but the lovely Chinese seller ignored the picture of the dent and said they will part refund me as a kind gesture which was nice ......... NOT!!!!!!! . I only now pay the extra for quality , learnt my lesson for sure
Been there my friend
Dave, you need to use some of the Angel Wax, AM Details or Infinity Wax air fresheners. Avoid the Chemical Guys ones, other than Honey Dew. 👃😁
Lol I'm not sure I'll make an air freshener video. You never know though
@@epicautomotivedetailing Dave, you know you will at some point 😁

Thank you 😁
@@epicautomotivedetailing I reviewed the blo rs on my channel good to have but not essential
@@APASSIONFORDETAILING yeah think my first ever video was on that one 👍
Cheaper products from Halfords for example are more aimed at the weekend washer than someone using them every day , that being said, my dad used to say when buying expensive gear - buy once cry once 😂
My car dryer is God 🙏 doesn't matter what drying towel you buy you can never get the water from under the wing mirrors grills etc i don't know how IV coped without it 👍
Don't get me wrong it's good when it's used for the vital bits and I just bought a cheap pet dryer now.
Work smarter not harder and you gotta realise buy cheap you buy twice .. I don’t think valeting should be done on a budget it looks unprofessional in my opinion , I use premium products , not only does it work better it saves loads of time and the results speak for there’s self
Yes 100% true
Toilet brush for wheels and leaf blower to dry
Why don’t people use dionised water, let the car dry while you work on the interior and then pat dry any water left on the vehicle saves so much time
I think the cost factor might put few people off who are just starting out. Along the line many people do use it but your average Joe it's not a big enough deal for them
Can we get a part 2 please?
Car dryers are a nice idea but with the evolution of hybrid ceramic sprays that you apply to a wet car, they are not needed anymore. Everyone buy's into them because youtube "detailers" like to use them but the only reason they are using them is because they're mostly paid to!
To be fair I know pretty much every other TH-camr detailer and there is only one I know who got one for free which they said in a video. Sadly we don't get any money unless it's to make a high quality commercial. Having said that I just bought a £50 Amazon let dryer and it's more powerful than my old expensive car dryer that blew up so interested to film it next week. I mainly make do with towels as I go through loads of maintenance valets
2:23 savage lol
Yep. I'm a victim of those exact Wheel woollies . Crap.
You live and learn mate. To be fair the pictures look great so it's easily done
Been there and I did buy expensive disasters, sold them off and won't be looking back.
Most of the time you get what you pay for so always buy the best you can afford.
Yeah one step at a time
I am yet to find anything of AliExpress that is any good
Me too
I’m very surprised that the sort of people that pay money for a car detailing don’t care about chips in their paintwork being sorted
