The thing with the wheel cleaner is considering it’s listed as an iron remover, the sulphur-like smell is spot on. The chemical in most high quality iron removers (like Iron-X) leads the solution to have a bad smell. If you find an iron remover that actually smells great, it probably won’t remove much iron.
It's not actually the iron-removing part but rather the progress indicator-chemical that's responsible for the rancid sulfur smell. The stuff that turns contamination into a visible redish/violett color. There are very potent wheel cleaner / fallout remover products out there without a progress indicator and these smell much better. :)
Honestly, my favorite part of these type of D-List videos, is James painstakingly reading the entire, often incoherent, titles of these products as if it mattered, and I say that unironically, just him reading out the whole title usually leaves me in tears laughing lmao
Guys that swiffer thing is meant for the inside of your windshield, I have a similar one and it's super useful if your dashboard is very long and you need to dry off condensation in wet weather. It gives you more reach and on the end is a microfiber towel you can just toss in the washing machine.
My dad has one that I've used before, and every time I use it for cleaning or condensation it doesn't work any better than the super absorbent paper towels
@@adamthompson4072 I think you don't understand the purpose of this product, a towel is not going to give you the extra reach if you want to get all the way across the windshield from the driver's seat. It'd need to be longer than the one the D-list crew received though.
Thank you! I have had one of these for years and LOVE it! As said , it is designed for one specific function. Inside of windshield. It works fantastic!
Yeah that heart attack he had a while back really must’ve made him change his ways. I feel bad he had to go through that but I am happy he’s taking care of himself
The car vacuums are very much helped by the car running. The extra voltage makes a noticeable difference in the speed and suction of the vacuum, also the window cleaner on a stick is best used on windshields.
@@derangedemu it's less about it being glass and more about reaching easier. Also, a good one would have a more triangular shape, to get into corners better.
The best part of all of these d list videos is james reading out every word of the sentence long titles that just get copied and pasted from the description of the product🤣🤣
That little spray bottle for your wheels is an iron oxide solvent like Carpro Iron-x or Monello Non-Ferro. It stinks like hell, will turn purple when it reacts and works wonderfully to pull iron particles out of painted surfaces. It won't work on crud coated steelies though.
Glad its not just me. Also thought the little handle for the windshield could be better used. Getting your hands all the way forward on the inside of your windshield is a pain 😅
@@007.3l I know. I have a bottle sitting about 30 feet from me right now that we only use in the most dire of circumstances. It fumigates the whole shop.
My mathematician uncle told me there are infinite numbers between 29.98 and 30. Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that $29.98 is infinitely less than $30.
I got one of those "window wands" at the dollar store and like it for cleaning the INSIDE 🤔. It works quite well, that said for the outside get a decent microfibre cloth 😎
8:44 The purpose of this blue wiper on a stick thingy is actually to clean the front window from the inside, which can be an absolute pain in the ass, especially if you own a car with a really flat front window, this thing is totally legit and helps a lot. I am using it since years, you can get in every corner in the of the front window pretty easy.
i used a $10 ceramic coating from amazon on my 2019 charger...that was roughly 6 months ago and its still holding strong to this day....not bad for 10 bucks i say
Bruh what a video I slept 2 times in this video. loved it. first time I started the video and unknowingly slept. after 5 hr when I woke au I again started the video to complete and again felt asleep. love you guys keep making such videos.
You won't notice much of the iron remover on a black wheel. Try on something clearer with lots of brake dust and it will pay for itself. Also, the window cleaning rod-thing is meant for the inside of a windshield, where in some cars it's a PITA to reach the corners. It will get insta-dirty if you use it on the outside, it's better to use just soap and water with a microfiber cloth.
12:29 I guarantee it's the same stuff we used at discount tire I always urged people not to do a tire shine when they asked for it because it only lasts the first few days before all the dirt and dust stick to it.
5:30 "i hate how that feels" that is pure gold i know that exact feeling of that weird foam thing thats foam but like as if you were rubbing it on a chalk board XD
@@JaredConnell yes iron particles stick and cause rust. If you spray the meguiars wheel cleaner on a dirty whee and just spray it down it’ll look almost perfect.
Playing the Devil's Advocate, the "Swiffer on a Stick" (wraps up at 8:39) Is CLUTCH for us vertically challenged folk in regards to cleaning the interior of the windshield. ...but it's total balls to use on any exterior glass. It's an ultimate "uni-tasker" but goddamn does it come in handy.
For someone as small as I am with my short little arms? That windshield washer stick thingy is amazing! I can’t really reach the bottom portion of my windshield on my own without twisting myself into a pretzel to reach the bottom end, so this is one car detail tool I can’t live without. Mine came with 4 microfiber heads, so I use one with solution and one without to buff it out and done; a crystal clear clean windshield!

The "window wand" is meant for the inside part of the front windshield, especially for cars with a long, smaller angled windshield for the hard to reach part 🤦♂️
powdered soap actually has the ability to hold more ingredients, that if suspended in a liquid would react with each other and become ineffective in the bottle before the soap was ever used. chemistry yo!
That "window cleaner" is just for doing the inside of the windshield and the back glass. Avoids the awkward reach around. Works well for what it's actually intended for.
“Hey man, enjoying art shouldn’t be a competition” mans was able to open my eyes on a car yt channel named donut dressed like a demon while doing an ad. Speechless. It’s also currently 2:05am and I’m sleep deprived 🥰
I actually use that microfiber cloth on handle for when the inside of my front window is damp and want to clear it. That works pretty well and I dont have to reach all over the dash to get to the window!
5:13 - I bought a scratch remover from the same make as the dry cleaner from Aliexpress a while ago. Still haven't used it, but now I am a bit skeptical that it would work. Also, I have the next product(the window brush) - it is a lifesaver for me, I hate washing the front screen.
Magic Eraser is fantastic for certain things. If you own a boat they are a must have for when mildew rears it's inevitable head, particularly when it rears it's head and you don't clean it in a timely manner and the mildew stains your vinyl upholstery. Mildew stains can be really tough to get rid of, but magic eraser will do it with just a bit of water. It does take a lot of elbow grease because you do have to scrub anywhere that you want to use it, but often times it will restore the vinyl to "like new" condition. It really is quite impressive how well it works.
I have that mini Swiffer thingy and it's a lifesaver on cold days when condensation builds up during the night and I have to wipe it all away from my seat. Love the thing!
The window cleaner thing with the handle I find useful. It is not for exterior cleaning as you have found. It is excellent for getting down where the windshield meets the dash when you can't reach it properly. With some proper window cleaner it works well for interior windshields and rear windows where access is tough.
Iron X does work and wreaks. I’m assuming that stuff you guys sprayed on the wheels needed to sit for a while and it would break down the brake rust specs and you spray it off. IronX is like $40 a bottle though…
Glass cleaning trick: 50/50 mixture of water and 91/70% alcohol. Use a waffle weave towel for the initial cleaning and then a microfiber towel to wipe off any excess. Bonus tip: clean your inside one way (up and down) and exterior window the other way (left and right). This will help you figure out which size you have streaks on if they occur.
Santa: "What do you want for Christmas?" Me: "I want a Upgraded Mini 7000PA 120W Super Suction Car Vacuum Cleaner Handheld Dry Dual Use Vacuum Cleaner for Car Home Computer Cleaning!" Santa: ...."You'll suck your eye out kid!"
The window wand is usually used on the inner windshield, it makes it easier to get in there and reach all of it. I bought the cleaning wand from Walmart and it makes it a lot easier to clean, of course mine is a Rain-X brand.
The microfiber cloth for window cleaning is meant for cleaning the windshield from the inside as it it hard to reach. That said, these things work as "good" as on you door’s windows from personal experience.
