- Auto Fanatic New Winter Wash 2023. Each Year I do these videos and I change up my processes and techniques a bit. This year I once again did things a little different from last. First I modified my chassis cleaner to shoot foam to do a better job cleaning the underside. Second I have experimented with this tip for months was adding Auto Fanatic Hyper Gloss to my soap and bucket mixture to increase lubrication and working time in the freezing cold temps and it works awesome. Hope you enjoy the tips and tricks shown in this video and if you have used any of them please post below and share. You can order Auto Fanatic Car Care Direct or Amazon

Your driveway must the most coated drive in the world with all the product testing you have done...seriously, I started watching you for the GT350 vids and info but I really appreciate your time and passion for the automotive community.
Beautiful
Car looks really good Phil!!
Thanks for the video. I storage the PW for the winter, So I use the foam gun/ik foam sprayer during the winter season. Thank you
That's a great idea! I still use the Adams Pro foam gun on occasion works great
You are a lucky man Phil to have access to drive (and own) all those incredible vehicles Phil. I am definitely jealous. It just proves what rewards working hard all your life and having drive, ambition, and a passion for something can produce. Looking forward to seeing what innovative modifications you come up with for this particular vehicle. I have enjoyed watching your journey through all your new vehicle acquisitions over the past several years. It always amazes me how you come up with all these cool and effective gadgets (you are like the "Inspector Gadget of Detailing" and I only mean that in the most complimentary way) and turn those gadgets into the most effective tool for the job at hand. For example the new BMW has those beautiful wheels on them with the diamond pattern which is sort of unusual. I saw you had that cool wheel brush that neatly fits into all the nooks and cranny's of that particular wheel. Whenever it seems one of your cars presents what you conceive as a problem, you quickly come up with your own solution to the problem or issue which makes it easier for you to complete the task! Thanks for posting the informative videos. You are one of my "go to" car detailing channels on TH-cam and I have actually purchased several of the items you review after seeing your opinion and your opinion is always 'spot on' when it comes to the review of that particular product or just your honest review about something related to cars or car detailing and to me that speaks volumes of the character of a person. When I see a TH-cam channel hyping up all this stuff and claiming it's the best ever and making all these ridiculous claims, that's the last time I will probably be on that channel. I want to go to channels where I can trust the person presenting the information is giving me their 100% HONEST opinion and I feel you provide that to the best of your ability. Granted, opinions are subjective and one person might love a product and the next person absolutely hates it after having the exact same experience, but I know when I watch your videos, I am getting what you honestly feel about the product. You also post all those great deals such as the Harbor Freight Lightweight Jack along with the Ryobi Foam Blaster which I bought the next day after watching your video and I have already blasted the siding on my house this past summer. It's a good cannon for BLASTING dirt off the paint if you have heavy build up. I also like it to BLAST away the dirt on my rims on the first knock down rinse which it works great for!). I also like the fact that you offer some of your gadgets or "better quality product" finds on your website such as the high end foam sprayers, that washing brush with the extended handle, among many other cool products. (If anyone reading has never been to Phil's Auto Fanatic website, do yourself a favor and check out some of his cool products, chemicals, and other stuff including useful detailing tools and gadgets, many of his own design, you may find something interesting for your detailing needs. Phil put's a lot of thought and YEARS of experience into his innovations, many of which are simple, but yet work so effectively well. Phil also seems to be a QUALITY fanatic too. I have noticed over the years that when he see's something and it is poor quality or could be made better or more effective , he's constantly thinking how he can improve it or make it better and often times will engineer a solution to the problem himself which could be a simple solution or a very complex solution. Thanks again for doing what you do Phil and also your honest reviews. That's what elevates Auto Fanatic TH-cam channel to the next level.
P.S. Phil, can you maybe do a full interior cleaning (top to bottom), everything you are going to do it. That way it will showcase that incredible orange interior in closer detail It doesn't have to be right away as I totally get the fact you just got the car and I'm sure the interior both smells and looks brand new inside so you might not even do an interior detail for a while, but when you do decide to do a detail on the inside or any modifications inside, make a video for us out here.
Hi Joe thanks so much for taking the time to share those kind word this means a lot to me for my dedication towards all aspects of my professional career in automotive. This is what motivates me to continue sharing glimpses of my life through social media. I do this for passion and for building relationships which is so different than most social media outlets. Thanks again and I will do a full interior detail soon enough. If you ever need anything or have questions on anything you are always welcome to contact me directly anytime. Phil
@@autofanaticcars Thank you Phil!
Never seen undercarriage sprayer shoots out foam, thats neat!
There's some things I absolutely dislike about the new M3/M4 but that color is definitely a positive and nice!
BTW using a salt neutralizer prewash with a Ryobi Foam cannon works our well too since that Ryobi puts out lots of psi
i love the Ryobi Foam Blaster because I can blast the paint and rinse without having to stop and attach the Mosmatic lance, great little gadget i am glad i bought i use it often.
I actually like the new style grill. 🤷🏾♂️
its growing on me but i have a new grill im installing this weekend to try out the front lips totally changed the look up front
That extended brush is sus. Sweet ride, though!
How did you modify the undercarriage sprayer to spray some foam? Did you just use the pressure washer’s built in foam dispenser with the salt away + the foam nozzle tips on the sprayer?
this is a prototype right now I am still fine tuning this to shoot foam like a foam cannon, once I do i will post a video.
That car is awesome. What pole and wash mitt are you using?
custom made we no longer sell these kits
Great wash…. I am a little jealous lol. Are your tires A/S 4? Or PS 4. Either way beautiful car. I too live in NY. Picked up a factory ordered triple black G82 manual in December.
Hi Jay I have the AS 4 on here I am taking them off soon would you be interested in them? Located in Westchester NY FYI shoot me an email if anything I rather not ship tires these days.
Do you think it’s advisable to use the same foam cannon for say your wheel soap and also car shampoo? OR is it better to have separate ones?
I use a separate older MTM foam cannon for our Auto Fanatic Wheel Cleaner as shown it is too much effort to clean them out to switch over to different products and so much easier to have two foam cannons for dedicated tasks or use our wheel cleaning in one of our pump up foamers we sell as another great option
It would drive me nuts seeing all that salt and grit all over the car! Very clean though 👍
You and me both!
I have a 3m underbody coating do you think it's a good idea to leave salt and not clean until summer? It's very difficult to wash car when it's 30 degrees
I specialize in restorations of cars and undercoating is never applied perfect and always has crevices, pinholes etc that salt and water creep into, over time it creates rust and rust is bad. I suggest if you have high levels of salt to clean the underside weekly before your undercarriage gets nasty and rusty, including all the nuts and bolts and plated surfaces will rust almost instantly from salt.
How do you feel about the steering? I noticed on my G80 there is some play in the steering from factory that doesn’t inspire confidence. Also it doesn’t return to center easy, sometimes not at all.
I will comment and discuss more about the steering and car itself in a new video next week so stay tuned on that.
A software update did help with that on the g30, just thought you should know
good to know I will mention this at my 1200 mile break in service end of this month but i hear many are complaining and getting zero resolution from dealers
That doesn’t sound “normal” to me. I have no play in my steering and it feels as expected and returns to center no issue, ‘21 manual.
Are your wheels coated with anything? I’ve been using brake buster diluted in an IK sprayer and it does nothing without serious agitation, although my wheels aren’t coated. These wheels are a mission to keep clean
no coating on the wheels or car, you should try our wheel cleaner way different that that stuff your using.
Glad I live in Houston with no snow and salt to attack my vehicles, you NY’ers are a tough group
i wont be doing this for much longer which is why I did not buy winter tires on the new car. these clowns seem to salt the roads when everyone is sleeping yet we have no snow go figure just rain and salt = mess
@@autofanaticcars O no, being from Ny I look forward to your vids which help me wash my car in a simulator environment the correct way
glad these videos help
@@autofanaticcars Where do you plan to go? I am in Chicago and have been thinking going someplace else like Florida for example. No snow and no state income tax and lower property taxes are some of my reasons.
contact me directly to discuss locations and suggestions i have explored them all. IL is almost as bad as NY so i get it. My email is in my video descriptions on channel or via website.
Hi, "What Odor?" is discontinued. What do you recommend to clean an interior that doesn't smell flowery??? Thanks.
What Odor is not a cleaner but deodorizer there are lots of options on the market
Love the new car! What were you using to dry it off?
Hi I used my EGO Blower and afterwards our Auto Fanatic 007 Ceramic Detailer as a drying aid with a 16X16 Griots PFM towel, works amazing and is easy and effortless.
@@autofanaticcars man I need that EGO! Is it just a leaf blower I can get from Lowe’s or something?
yes Lowes sells them, well worth it
Where did you buy the microfiber car wash mop ?
i made it we use to sell them but no more
At first I thought converting that underbody spray caddy was a good idea. I have the same unit. Then I just priced out the cost of 4 SS plugs and 4 soap nozzles and thought that just using the long 22 degree wand with a soap nozzle was nearly as good and no coast. I guess if u had all the pieces you needed for this it makes sense since it avoids squating down and aiming the long wand.
i have the longer attachment for this chassis cleaner but it was cold and i was sorta rushing to get this done and didn't search in my cabinet to get it. I have modified this unit several times and i am close to getting it to shoot out like a foam cannon just waiting on some parts to machine and test. To get real foam you need a very powerful pressure washer since there are 4 jets.
@@autofanaticcars So probably not good with the Kranzle? I guess I'll stick with the long wand and a soap nozzle with upstream injection, or just use the Ryobi on the long wand (dont think that is very maneuverable). Use the caddy for the rinse. That caddy was one of you best recommendations from a few years ago.
Joe the Kranzle has not enough balls to make the undercarriage cleaner shoot foam, tried it already total fail.
What brand of tyres are using atm?
Michelin Pilot 4 All Seasons i plan to do a review video on these tires on the G80 on other cars they are amazing on the G80 they are just ok which is very surprising.
Is the salt away safe to use on paint with a ceramic coating?
yes just do not use too much and mix with soap as demonstrated in this video
@@autofanaticcars great, thank you!
I have a set of oem 829m with michelin aplin pa5s that have about 500 miles on them if you are interested. Just took em off the car and decided to store the car instead of drive it.
yeah i got the M3 in a pinch and did not plan it at all but not planning to do winter tires as we are leaving the north east this year for good. those Alpins are impossible to find you may consider listing them online ASAP. today was 60 degrees how insane is this weather.
I just popped them on bimmerpost for $3,400 just might be too late in the season. Setup was over $4k through BMW.
Excited to see the build progress!
Using the wash pad on a pole, you are not able to clean all of the smaller areas/crevices (windshield cowl, door handle pockets, grill openings, ect). Are you not worried about contaminants remaining in those areas, then marring the paint when using the ceramic detailer/microfiber towel.
the car was spotless when done using this method no need to bend and spend two hours freezing my ass off with a mitt on my hand. The modified wash mop literally gets into all areas based on my core strength on how I use it and the weight and way I made the mop. It was freezing that day it is all about efficiency and techniques to get perfect results and each year I change things up a bit
@@autofanaticcars Thanks for the response. I find this process really appealing in the wintertime, it just feels like it goes against conventional wisdom of spending 2 hours with a wash mitt on my frozen hand!
Not sure if you know this, but that chemical solution that you put on the car salt the way pretty much stripped everything off the car.. I’m going to assume that you’re going to be doing a full paint correction and ceramic coating on the car in the spring..I would use CarPro lift, which is formulated not to strip and it will still do the same job necessary with removing salt and grime, and it’s pH balanced
Carpro is overpriced not worth it for the amount of washes and cars I own. after mixing the Salt Away with our soap it does not strip the waxes or protection left on the car that is why I always mix it with our soap, works awesome and plenty left over for the entire season using a 32oz bottle for $20
@@autofanaticcars that’s all I use on my BMW is Carpro products we just have to disagree to agree no worries.. :-)
Bilt Hamber Auto Foam works very well for prewash and literally eats away the road grim and salt. Pretty cool stuff. Carpro is top notch but I also think it is pricey.
Did i miss front lip video?? Damn
yes full video posted last week on the channel check it out
With running water and outside, not sure what really makes this a "winter" wash....except it is winter.
was 35 degrees when I did this wash
He used "Salt Away " in the Ryobi foam blaster. Both not typical for a non-winter wash. He also used the undercarriage pressure sprayer to remove salt from the bottom of the car. Certainly not a rinseless wash in the garage but whenever it's above freezing I prefer doing just what Phil did here .
What was mit is that?
custom made we no longer sell these in our web shop. we may bring back an alternative in the spring.
I miss the wash & talk
spring time too cold during winter to do those with my nose running and me trying to catch my breath lol
Winter is not over yet!
I think we still have something to look forward to. Phil will be happy to confirm :) .
Awesome car. That hideous grill though. It’s gotta go.
we are installing a new grill in a few days to see how it works out I am still working on designing my own grill
Fantastic music choice in your videos ….respect 🫡💯🤘🏻
Thanks ✌️
