As a 56 year old man I absolutely love seeing the younger generation doing things and making there on way. I've watched your channel for a while. I can honestly say young man im so glad I don't have the bank note that you have, it would be way to much stress for me today. I have the upmost respect for you and your crew. I'd like to also say thankyou for being part of the future young man. I wish there were alot more young people that had your mindset. Much love and respect from Georgia. God bless you and your family and your business 🙏
Should do a small example of each tint shade and brand on the exterior glass wall so customers can get a feel for how dark it’ll be on their car seeing outside
I'm assuming the smell is coming from the pit. You probably have to fill it uo with water to block out the stink. That's how it's designed. Kinda like a toilet or sink drain
You are correct Nicholas! Those lines likely have a "P" trap in them that needs to have water kept in the trap to keep the sewer gases out. Just like your toilets and sinks in your house.
My only issue with the tint on the lobby windows is it makes it appear that you are not open for business. Potential customers like to see in as they drive by and notice that people are hard at work.
I felt a similar way, it also can give the impression that they're trying to hide stuff as far as the lobby goes. I get tinting the garage doors but I feel like you'd want to be known for clarity in your business, physically and figuratively. Can just make people feel uneasy, I know I would
Yup, when the doors are closed it's gonna look like the shop is closed, permanently. You'll get those "You never see anything going on around there"-rumors. The tint is also completely useless for theft prevention. As you can see, when there are lights on inside when its dark out, you can see right through it. Any serious thieves will scout ahead of time anyway, and an opportunistic crackhead will break in anyway, because they don't care and just want something. I get the idea, but it won't do anything. It's nice to block the sun though, especially if those doors face south or west.
You could get a ozone machine for the smell and just air out the shop afterwards. They use it in detailing cars when they smell terribly. Look into it! :)
Hopefully there is a Ptrap between the shop and the tie in to the city sewer. That will seal any sewer gases from getting back in. You could probably add one if needed.
Take the wand off the pressure washer and stuff the hose in the drain, pressure clean the drain. Could even buy a extra hose and put a cap on it and make a nozzle by drilling a single front hole and angle a couple small holes back wards help wash the pipe wall.
I have to admit I miss the "revive this old truck" videos. Been a long time sub, it's cool to see the growth and progress. Any plans to do a throwback and revive some mid 1900's trucks? I'll be watching anyways, but don't forget your roots. haha
Repaint the yellow on the entryway sidewalk area on the concrete. Or maybe even have it poured again. First impression around the entrance looking rough. Just a suggestion. Nice window tint nonetheless!
Hi Caleb, You must have had a lot of foresight when you talked a few vlogs ago about your dream shop. The old Napa shop is having a complete refit and it already gives me a good impression how it finally will look like. I think when all is done you must be the most proud person in the region. Thanks for your great vlogs as well and send you love from the Netherlands
Been watching the videos since the original outlander, it’s awesome to see your new business doing so well. Keep up the amazing work, hopefully more working on truck vehicles soon. Great content
As you move into auto repair you might look into a uniform service like unifirst. They’ll provide shirts, pants, jumpsuits and floor mats to keep your guys looking professional and they’ll launder them weekly
Great job. Suggestion. Cascade dishwasher powder and hot water on dirty stuff and windows, use a soft brush on windows and rinse, the sheeting action, bleach and detergent kills mold and grime
Maybe just pour some beach with "spic and span powder" down into the main drain once a week; should work wonders once the pit is cleaned out thoroughly in the beginning.
You should look into a karcher drain jet it attaches to a pressure washer and uses water to push itself forward while spraying a jet of water forward to break down any debris
I'm surprised there isn't a professional grit trap cleaning service that get get all that sludge out for you. the garage i used to work at used to do it every couple of years to keep things running.

I only think that maybe it's too much dark... It's always nice to see inside before entering a room (psicology) and see people inside, i would have choose a lighter tint (from the inside it's ok, but when watched from the outside I can't see anyone inside) I speak about the lobby, the workshop area i think that darker it's better to not be able to see at a glance what is inside
The tint is way to dark. You do want potential customers to see the work that happens inside. People do need to want to walk inside and make an apiontment.
Great progress. All that frontage glass looks great but boy it's a real pain to keep clean! Storm is a trooper, you got some good employees. Did you also buy the two post lifts and alignment rack with the building? If not I'm shocked the old owners didn't pull them up first thing. Looking forward to more videos.
A snake may break in drain from sludge build up need to have lines hydro jetted go to amazon order kit goes on pressure washer. Sewer Jetter Kit Pressure Washer - 1/4 Inch NPT, 50 FT Drain Cleaning Hose, Button Nose and Rotating Sewer Jetting Nozzle with Wrench, Orifice 4.0, 4.5, 4000 PSI, i have used an air hose and blow out lines too have to use a lot shop rags to hold pressure to blow out clog then hydro jet i think there is suppose to be water in bottom of pit to keep sewer gas out , call plumber and ask about water . there are some videos on you tube
There’s some stuff Napa sells, called ozzy juice, orange jug, it will eat anything petroleum based like that sludge. Bio friendly and it realllly helps with drain smells, check it out man!
If that smell persists talk to a local waste disposal company. I worked as a bus mechanic for a bit. Safety kleen would charge us 750 to 900 to truck vac all the lines and pump our 3 pits that were large enough to swallow forklifts in their 150k sqft shop. Im sure a local operation might be cheaper.
Place is looking awesome if I ever am able to drive again and walk I'll definitely drive up to you so you can do all this to my truck. BTW why not put mirrored tint on the front windows would actually be a better thing so people couldn't see inside at all except nighttime when the inside lights are on. Good job bro
Just a FYI on the grease/sand trap. It won't stop stinking till you put enough water in it to seal off the sewer gas. Since there is no pee trap like a sink in a house the smell will just keep coming in until you add water.
Looking good I always noticed with multiple bay shops however, those doors have such poor insulating costs that I spend a ton on heating monthly in our winter climate… and don’t even bother with ac Are you planning on using all the bay doors ?
Probably should have snaked those drains before cleaning out that pit. Also if you still have sewer smell you will need to keep water in the pit to prevent sewer gasses from escaping
See how you get those hazy shots like when they’re ppfing the car? It’s because you have smudges on your lens. Gotta remember to wipe the lens off well on your phone before you record. You’re a detail shop and details matter.
Just noticed as you panned across the front of the building while cleaning the glass, the original sign work had a spelling mistake, it read alingments instead of alignments, no one noticed in the original NAPA shop for how many years? Ha Ha.
I would like 3 of my vehicles down. Who or what number do I contact for me to get mine done. Willing to pull all three states away to have his company do it.
Hey man been watching for a very long time....is that your brother hunter....aka wat tha duck...just curious shop is looking great....been watching since you was in Hawaii with the silver 2nd gen
I wonder if anyone at the NAPA noticed “alingments” was misspelled on the front of their building for what I’m guessing was a decade or more. Glad you guys are making it look so much better now.
14:30 What in the Alabama fuck made someone leave that horrible misspelling of alignments up on that shop? 🤣🤣🤣 I don’t want no mf alinging my car Glad you’re saving this spot Caleb, it needs help lol

I'm assuming the smell is coming from the pit. You probably have to fill it uo with water to block out the stink. That's how it's designed. Kinda like a toilet or sink drain
Yeah it does look like the pit is supposed to have about a foot of water to block the smell (and trap heavy particulates).
yes ya gotta fill it up with water to cover those pipes at a minimum as you have nothing stopping sewer gas right now....
You are correct Nicholas! Those lines likely have a "P" trap in them that needs to have water kept in the trap to keep the sewer gases out. Just like your toilets and sinks in your house.
All about presentation, modern and clean is a good sign that you care about your business. Love the progress so far. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍
I love channels that show bizz progress and growth! Keep it up!

It's nice to block the sun though, especially if those doors face south or west.
I agree, and it’s a bad idea. I have made that mistake before. Should do the upper lobby windows but not the lower.
You could get a ozone machine for the smell and just air out the shop afterwards. They use it in detailing cars when they smell terribly. Look into it! :)
We have one, I’ve been meaning to leave it in there overnight but I keep forgetting haha
Alingments haha.
And 'engine swap'. Was def a napa shop
Hopefully there is a Ptrap between the shop and the tie in to the city sewer. That will seal any sewer gases from getting back in. You could probably add one if needed.
Better and better each video.. ✌
It’s coming along👍🏼…could look into renting a Vac Truck to suck out all that sludge and clear those other drains…Aloha 🤙🏽
Take the wand off the pressure washer and stuff the hose in the drain, pressure clean the drain. Could even buy a extra hose and put a cap on it and make a nozzle by drilling a single front hole and angle a couple small holes back wards help wash the pipe wall.
Awesome that tint is wonderful!
Great to see new life being given to an existing building!!! Shows what hard work can accomplish. I subscribed to follow the progress. Keep it up!
Looking forward to the shop content. Awesome progress on the shop
Thanks Tyler!

Man, I’d paint the whole outside and inside of the ship black. Keep it up
Thé Shop looks amazing guys.
The hard work is paying off.
Enjoying the progress, thanks! I think most professional window cleaners use DI water to rinse the panels off after cleaning.
Wow,you have made that Old Napa Buildingi into something productive,
Hi Caleb,

Hey my boy Hunter, puttin in that work. Things are coming together nicely.
You keep motivating me bro!

Life in Alabama is so great. We live in South Carolina and want to buy land in Alabama. The cost of living is amazing compared to where I live.
Great job. Suggestion. Cascade dishwasher powder and hot water on dirty stuff and windows, use a soft brush on windows and rinse, the sheeting action, bleach and detergent kills mold and grime
Maybe just pour some beach with "spic and span powder" down into the main drain once a week; should work wonders once the pit is cleaned out thoroughly in the beginning.
Pressure washer snake ftw! Better than the auger for that kind of gunk.
You should look into a karcher drain jet it attaches to a pressure washer and uses water to push itself forward while spraying a jet of water forward to break down any debris
Try liquid fire to clean the drains out.
One pass of some fine steel wool would have probably saved you guys hours on those windows.
I worked in a shop where we each got dedicated bays. Id always wax the windows on my door. Made cleaning a breeze.
I'm surprised there isn't a professional grit trap cleaning service that get get all that sludge out for you. the garage i used to work at used to do it every couple of years to keep things running.
I only think that maybe it's too much dark...

Local KFC remodeled and went super dark tint. I cant tell you how many times ive drive 25 minutes past it just to realize they arent closed.
Great video 👍
The tint is way to dark. You do want potential customers to see the work that happens inside. People do need to want to walk inside and make an apiontment.
Hope you fix your sign, especially if your going to do Alignments. The old Napa Shop sign says alingments over one of the bays!
I dont need smell-a-vision for that drain i can smell it all the way from ky haha... keep it up cant wait to see it finished
Coming along nicely!

Storm needs a Cold Beverage for all the Hard work he does !!!

Thanks Collin!
Loved the music in the video it doesn't overpower the video
Once the tint is done do you plan on putting a coating on the exterior glass? Might make future cleanings easier….
As others have said, the pit needs to be holding water up to the pipes. That will fix the smell.
Looking good
Love the Channel... Have you thought about doing mobile jobs for windows on residential and commercial sites?
If that smell persists talk to a local waste disposal company. I worked as a bus mechanic for a bit. Safety kleen would charge us 750 to 900 to truck vac all the lines and pump our 3 pits that were large enough to swallow forklifts in their 150k sqft shop.
Im sure a local operation might be cheaper.
Looking good brother, so very cool watching y'all grow.
Place is looking awesome if I ever am able to drive again and walk I'll definitely drive up to you so you can do all this to my truck.

I think the parking lot and concrete need some work! But looks good
You need to hire a window cleaning company for glass maintenance.
Looking good
I always noticed with multiple bay shops however, those doors have such poor insulating costs that I spend a ton on heating monthly in our winter climate… and don’t even bother with ac
Are you planning on using all the bay doors ?
Probably should have snaked those drains before cleaning out that pit. Also if you still have sewer smell you will need to keep water in the pit to prevent sewer gasses from escaping
It's so satisfying to see the transformation! Where do you get the patience to tint by the way? Really nice work and progress brother!
Did anyone else notice how alignments is spelled alingments on the building?
You came a long ways glad to see you makeing it can't wait to see the next video
Keep killing it shop looking good 💪
Love the videos of the shop thanks
good to see you guys are super busy with cars/trucks
So what’s your plans for the lift bays??
Looks good bro. Post more videos.
Electrician by trade and we always left a couple night lights on in buildings so if someone did break in you could see him from the road.
should have got a power vac company to clean those sumps out they would have got the sludge out and cleaned the side also
Tried. Nobody around here would do it
That drain definitely needs water sitting in it. You’re just getting gases coming back in because there’s no water trap!
Love what your doing keep up the good work !!
I would use a jetter system instead of a snake it's safer from the pipes
This is the part that has me excited
Hopefully that's single pane glass. 5% automotive tint is not a good idea for dual pane flat glass.
See how you get those hazy shots like when they’re ppfing the car? It’s because you have smudges on your lens. Gotta remember to wipe the lens off well on your phone before you record. You’re a detail shop and details matter.
Y'all keeping those lift's
Bleach the floor drains to kill the smell
👍 👍
Are you guys gonna paint the bay doors? Shop vides are great!
For the drain pit at my old job we would put some bleach tablets in there.
How do you dispose of the waste retrieved from the pit? Curious on what your options are on that type of waste?
Local recycling facility , options a very limited
How did the old shop have alignments misspelled that badly for that long and nobody noticed or fixed it? That's hilarious. Noticed it at 14:42.
Goldmine location so much traffic. It just needed a little refreshment. So many owners don't give a damn about cleanliness.
What if you try aluminum cleaner on the doors?
Yes! Use a industrial acid wash (made for aluminum) will clean and brighten up all on the aluminum frames of the roll up doors.
Hell yeah keep it up love it!!
If it had been me I might have used different tints on each window then you can show the customer what each tint looks like next to others.
Just noticed as you panned across the front of the building while cleaning the glass, the original sign work had a spelling mistake, it read alingments instead of alignments, no one noticed in the original NAPA shop for how many years? Ha Ha.
The shop is looking good, I wish I was local to you I would love to get both my new cars setup there
The 6.7 Cummins video brought me here and I just kinda stayed.
same hahaha
I would like 3 of my vehicles down. Who or what number do I contact for me to get mine done. Willing to pull all three states away to have his company do it.
Hey man been watching for a very long time....is that your brother hunter....aka wat tha duck...just curious shop is looking great....been watching since you was in Hawaii with the silver 2nd gen
I wonder if anyone at the NAPA noticed “alingments” was misspelled on the front of their building for what I’m guessing was a decade or more. Glad you guys are making it look so much better now.
I noticed that too. lol
Is your shop in Washington state?
I can't believe they left the door labeled, "Alingment" lmao
Get a company to pressure wash those drains instead of a snake .
are you going to epoxy the part of the shop with the lifts?
14:30
What in the Alabama fuck made someone leave that horrible misspelling of alignments up on that shop? 🤣🤣🤣 I don’t want no mf alinging my car
Glad you’re saving this spot Caleb, it needs help lol
Why in gods name didn’t you just hire a sewage pump company for the pit? They would’ve had that done in 20 mins. Good grief.
Thanks but no thanks for being able to small that I've cleaned them out before and can still smell that years later 🤣
The old shop didn't know how to spell Alignments they put the N before the G LOL
