“I know most of you only clean your engine maybe every couple of months.”
I’m currently on the -every other decade plan myself.
:) :)
YUP
My landcruiser is twenty years old gets washed when it rains, never been waxed, no rust at all.
And as for cleaning the engine bay, WHY.
Barney Bear some of us are crazy and like to look at our engine bays.
I don’t clean the engine if my current heap because it isn’t much to look at, but if I had a nicer car I would. :)
@@MicahS70T5M I dont clean my enginge because im worried i might damage something :D
mato matlak I probably wouldn’t do more than wipe it down myself. The idea of spraying water on the electronics is not a fun one for me :)

+NicholasG28 Sweet! Nice work!
+AMMO NYC No problem! Feel free to put it in the description so more people will be able to see it
+AMMO NYC What are your thoughts on using silicone spray on plastics for a shiny look?
+MrPungnylle b I'm sure he's not for them. I assume he would more so recommend a water based product. I say this because he uses a water based tire gel instead of silicone based, which actually you can use AMMO MUD tire gel on your trim; however, it won't necessarily be super shinny if that's what you're looking for. It will look good but not totally shinny.
nice
Just wanted to add my suggestions on things I've learned over time. 1, I vacuum the seats before the carpet. A lot of times things jump from the seats onto the carpet..it saves time. 2, I do the windows AFTER the tire shine. The smallest amount of wind carries that tire shine onto everything..also saves time. 3, I clean the interior first always because when cleaning/lifting dirt/dust from the inside, it can end up blowing around to the paint. It's comforting to know when I'm finished the inside I can close it up n not have to get back in.
I definitely feel the same way, I always get the interior before the exterior. I usually do the engine bay first and foremost
I do this unless I'm extracting that way everything has time to dry but usually my extraction jobs i schedule for a little longer toake up for drying time i hate giving back a moist car .
I'm 19, just got my first car, which is a 1998 Dodge Neon. I know it's not a really nice BMW or Charger, but it's a start. I've been getting really into caring for it, even more so because the previous owner didn't take much care of it (he sold it after he dented up the front from when it went under a trailer home). I've been trying to care for it and restore it as best as I can and your videos have been a great help. Thanks a lot!
Bro, my first car was my grandmoms 96 Dodge Caravan. Then I got my brothers 96 GMC Jimmy. My first brand new car was my 2009 Dodge Charger SXT. Just traded that in for a 13 Charger Daytona. Worked for it all. You'll get your dream car, just work for it man!
SPaoline4302 Definitely motivating. Thanks!
+SPaoline4302 so very true and, important; always keep your dreams in the back of your mind to keep your motivation to not give up and achieve them. my dream cars: 1967 shelby cobra 427; 2014 Nissan GTR; 2011 FORD Mustang w/ new tail lights.
John Meda but you definitely have the right mentality! And all the practice you are getting now will be able to keep your next "proper" car all the better! Good luck on your car ownership journey!
J M kjjf!,...u,,Lyme You
Larry, its great to see you openly promoting your products. Some companies have been ramming pointless products down our throats for a while now & Its a breath of fresh air to see someone like yourself share his knowledge & integrity with out an agenda. Kudos to you mate.
Thank you so much!
***** Here at chemical guys, we have 46 types of wax and we will make sure to mention each of them 4 times a piece in each video. lol
AMMO NYC Larry, can't thank enough for an excellent video you have done.
"your car is not as dirty as this" *Shows me a car that looks like mine after i cleaned it*
Pete Thompson thats what i was thinking. Minus the bird poop. Thats gotta go
🤣
I love old videos... Compared to the 2023 & 2024... Its so wholesome and authentic.... Seeing his foam gun compared to foam guns now is crazy....
Legend has it, he's still washing this car.
I just bought my dream car and have spent so many hours learning about car maintenance, care, modification etc. Your videos have been so extremely helpful to me, I can't thank you enough. It's a really great feeling knowing that I have the knowledge to keep my car looking fantastic for years to come. I also really admire your passion for what you do, you clearly take pride in what you do and I have not found anyone that goes anywhere close to the detail you provide. Thank you so much for all the time you spend making great videos to inform others!
I come back to this video to show myself anything is possible. Larry stays killing it!!!
Thank you for mentioning the seat position. I have even had details done where they have changed the steering wheel, mirrors, seat and radio stations. It's the small things customers remember.
Rice Crash that’s absolutely right. I didn’t go back to a dealership because they refused to give me an owners manual for a vehicle I just bought. When I went to buy another vehicle they were blowing me up trying to get me down there. Won’t even glance at the place as I drive by now. The details matter for sure.
Salty Honkz Why did they refuse? That is just stupid. I’m assuming they had one available- I can’t think of a single reason to do that which makes sense...
Look it up online or buy it idk where you could purchase one.
Funny, when I take a shower I only use one body wash, but for my cars I use twenty different products.
peter g I use bar soap and a scrub brush first to thoroughly knock off the body oils and dingle berries and then follow up after that with body wash and a mitt and rub that solution deep into the pores. I pat dry and then rub moisturizer oil control with some spf to protect the man suit...have that fresh feeling for hours and chicks dig it.
scroonie 1976 yes, be careful of those Klingons circling Uranus😂
And when the wife wants to know why you need all those products to wash the car, just point to the twenty different bottles she has in the bathroom and say "that's why"!!
Dude that's funny. Thanks for all your info and humor
Well your skin is probably not made of metal, fabric, cow leather, rubber, steel and plastic
Finally found a vaccum with a "low" setting for those days when full power removes too much dirt.
Larry, I can't thank you enough for shooting this video. I'm currently very much amateur level when it comes to auto cleaning and detailing, although I have had a few "customers."
It seems that I have no pattern for my washes and with so many different videos, opinions, and methods, I'm even more unorganized in the way I perform my washes. This is a well made video and really helps me to understand the importance of creating a pattern or routine when washing and detailing a vehicle.
So again, thank you for this video!! Glad to see a new video that goes back to the root of your profession of washing and detailing. Have a great day!
U got it!
Great job mate.
Mike FARE you a pro detailer?
fisephalnoxt No. I am not. I have detail several cars, but I would not claim to be a professional.
Oh ok.I asked that because i am going to start my own auto detail business soon, so i wanted some tips.
Absolutely love how finicky and fussy he is with cleaning, can entirely relate and I'm entertained the whole while. I've been watching car cleaning videos for the past 4 hours and I keep finding my way back to AMMO, Love it.
Larry is such a great, standup guy making all these videos. Thank you Larry! I love the professionalism and attention to detail.
thanks for the kind words Neil. Thanks for watching and supporting AMMO.
This is really awesome. I started watching these videos a year ago when I bought my dream car. I started studying care taking for my car and I have almost the exact same process when I clean mine. With all the videos that Larry has made, I have been able to educate myself enough to maintain my car. Thank you Larry. Your videos are really nice. I appreciate them alot.
the level of ocd is comforting. Its almost as if you are speaking for me. Love your videos they are HIGHLY informative
I wonder what this dude's shower routine is like....
hah omg best comment haha
hah omg best comment haha
hah omg best comment haha
Carefully apply soap into the crevices of your toes..
make sure u get all the gunk from the cracks as it can build up there
LARRY, What can I say that you don't already know: Your videos are top-notch. I just discovered your car-cleaning videos and am mightily impressed with your style of communicating and the methodical way you approach a dirty car. I'll be following your advice from now on and telling my friends to look you up too.
thanks so much for your videos. you've single handedly gotten me into car detailing.
:)
giantenemycrabX Same here, and i missed hes vidz hehehe
Maar
He's the only reason I got a black car!!!!! Was gonna go silver.
This guy knows what he is doing.. Very professional
Thanks for the awesome video. I wish I watched this before doing my first wash with my new tools and new car. I skipped the first step and didn't notice that there was a bunch of sticky tar on the bumper and a gooey bug splatter on the windshield so I got this mess all over my brand new wash mitt and it was almost impossible to get clean again. I also tried washing my black car in the sun (oops) but I've learned my lessons so hopefully the next wash will go smoother.
One thing I love seeing is someone that is so passionate and thorough with their craft.
Perfectly made video and totally correct in the level of information needed. Helps those who just want a good wash system/method without going down the moe refined detailing route. Thanks Larry and continue to enjoy those adventure weekends.
Oh shit I read the title and was like is this another stupid chemical guys video, then I realised it was from the one and only, Master Larry. Definitely excited.
Tommy T ahhh jaja same here man!
Exactly!
Ya, their videos are pretty stupid. They usually follow the same formula as well.
Step 1: Dubstep.
Step 2: Lens flair.
Step 3: Expensive pressure washer.
Step 4: Stupid foam cannon.
Step 5: More Dubstep.
+Kelf Ruston You forgot their useless "fire hose" sprayer.
have u seen the "ultimate CG water blade" ? :D "it's so awesome "
Hey brother, I can't tell you how refreshing it is to watch a video, plainly laid out and to hear "to each his own". Your explanations are great and you seem to guide the viewer along instead of beat/drag them along, as I've seen others do, who come across as opinionated and arrogant.You also seem like a very humble person although very sure of your abilities. Just wanted to say thanks.
So I’m going to say I’m very appreciative of this content for a few reasons. I don’t have a fancy expensive car but I do have a new fully loaded Kia Soul Exclaim that I love to clean and keep shiny and new looking. So having some free time for once in a very long time this weekend I want to clean my car again but this time I’ve got build up on my Driver leather seat and I found your channel on how to remove leather stains. Then I’ve found this video. And let me say that this video either reinforces what I already do or has shown me new techniques I’ve never even considered. So thank you for sharing your expertise with the world to see and learn. I don’t use expensive products to clean but I’ll definitely have an idea of what to do from now on. So thank you very much for making videos like these so I can keep my Kia Soul exclaim professionally clean 👍🏼
I so enjoy watching your videos. Im glad to see Ive been doing a lot of things right when I wash my vehicles. I, however, always vacuum first. I have an inexpensive Craftsman vac and the dirt on the garage floor gets blown around when I run the vac so I dont want that dirt, or "Gunk" getting on my car. Secondly, I NEVER put towels over my shoulder and then use them to dry or do glass. I find that sweat and/or oil from my skin gets on the towel and then on the glass or paint.
This is definetly the best tutorial 'How to wash your car' in the world
Best 25 minutes ever spent. You're amazing Larry!!
Larry, thank you for all your car care how-to videos. The procedures you use makes the most sense. I'm getting a new mustang gt soon, and plan on hand washing it no less than every 2 to 3 weeks. Love the idea of drying with hydrate.
Nice find. Your attention to detail is impressive. As a newbie to this arena I appreciate the instructions. Thank you
Not sure if I should be glad that someone else has this ocd too or feel bad, but great video man. Thank you
Best instructional wash video ever! This morning I've watched over 40 videos and read several articles on the subject.
Thank you for your time and effort in doing this.
I must say it's nice to see someone promoting their products that actually use them on a car that has more than shop dust on it.
Pause at 16:22. Thank me later.
😂😂😂
Thats probably the best shot of how its inside Larry's head. Awesome!
He should use it as a thumbnail! Omg gunk! Lol
Cheers Dan
+Alberto Pettine Died laughing.. lmao
+sleepybird09 if you stop the video on the late end of 16:22 hes making his (OCD) face about how much he loves vacuuming
Facial expression at 16:22. PRICELESS!!! Love it! Hahaha!
Oh my God Larry, two grit guards in one bucket! You are next level man.
AMMO NYC Larry I am simply amazed with your service. I requested to get my products as soon as possible and it came from half way across the country in one day. You are truly amazing and I couldn't thank you enough. Keep doing what you are doing! I will be 100% buying from you again and again.
you should also have a count meter for "microfiber towel" LOL
Top quality and very useful.
Larry. Thanks for the very informative wash video. It is really great to see someone who takes such pride in doing a job well. I learned that even though I thought I was washing my car correctly, you can always learn something new. Thanks again and I will continue watching.
The fact that you pay attention to detail such as the seat position shows how conscientious you are of your customers...Of course paying attention to every DETAIL is what makes you a great DETAILER...Iv'e learned a lot from your channel...
By the end of the video, that thing looked better than it did brand new. Jesus this guy's amazing.
I've been binging on all these over the top detail videos lol
I love Larry's video's. He has taught me to really take car of the paint on my black car. Best car detailer I have come across. Thanks Larry!
Thanks for taking the time and sharing! loved the idea of filtering water for no water spots. by far one of the best step by step how-to videos I've seen!
Am I the only one who thinks he looks like linustechtips
54321ib
oh lawd jesus...
kingfisher Singh they're cousins
god damnit
Yes they look similar
I would say he looks like Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson, the UFC fighter.
I cringe when I think back to the days where i used to dry my car with old shirts.. oh god why
I see your "where i used to dry my car with old shirts" and raise you "using dishwasher detergent as car shampoo"
I raise my own "using dishwasher detergent as car shampoo" and double raise it with "using wd40 and the jet steam spray wand and my dad's work place used for cleaning big rigs"
I used to put the cheapest carnauba wax on my car which used to be my dad's with an old sock that I'd set down on the ground between panels. #ThrowbackThursday
My dumbass 16 year old self use dawn dish soap to wash my accord thinking I was doing myself a service..... TWICE A MONTH 😂😂😂
I had my last car for 12 years, washed it 5-6 times a year using the cheapest shampoo I could find and a sponge. And I had just one bucket. And after 12 years it still looked like new...
Wow! Love how thorough you teach. Please don’t change your style, it’s motivating!
Thank you for taking the time to share your skills, much appreciated !!
I am nervous about cleaning inside of the hood. Can you make a detailed video about how to properly clean the engine and the DOs and DONOTs for it?
Rommel Enriquez Most of the time all you have to do is cover up the air filter (if exposed) and the distributor if it's an older vehicle. Been spraying engine bays for 8 years now.. Not once have I caused any electrical problems or hydrostatic locked a motor lol
@@BadassEFdriver I usually use a pressure washer, or a self service car wash lol
But I am a mechanic, so I know where not to spray...
But generally, unless something is wrong, you can hose an engine down with no problems.
Run it for a while afterwards to warm it up and make sure everything dries out so nothing seeps into connectors.
pretty much a bad idea to spray water in your engine bay, not worth the risk.
@@steveneumeyer681 I assume that you also don't drive through puddles, or when the road is wet?
And be careful, if it's foggy outside and the fan turns on, it will blow moisture directly onto your engine! Lol
@@BadassEFdriver you do that in a Pontiac you're fucked lol.
5 dislikes? ...nice try Chemical Guys
kidzero1943 holy crap I laughed way too hard to that lol!
more like dislikes from 3 minute drive thru car washers, using brush at the self service bay folks, armor all addicts, chamois drying, cheap $2 car wash soap washing, 1 bucket for a muddy truck washing idiots
LMAO.. 3 year old post... still getting laughs..
I absolutely love this video, by far the most applicable video make by Ammo NYC
Larry, first off, thank you SOOO much for your comments, tips, insight, and your valuable experience. I have to tell you, I was laughing a bit during this video and I'll tell you why. . . . . because that's how i approach my weekly wash n dries too :)). I mean almost to a T.
The funniest part was when you got to the fabric cleaning of the seat. . . you know...when you pulled apart the seams to expose hidden dirt ! ! ! LOL I do that too. It's good to see someone else that's "anal" about detailing. I mean, afterall, that's how you got to the top of the detailing food chain.
Even still, I'm going to watch this video a few more times and then take notes. I am always looking for ways to improve my technique. I know you probably have already heard this a million times but Thank YOU for helping me take care of my cars (I have a 2012 Mazda3 Sedan in Crystal White Pearl, and my wife's is a 2015 Mazda3 Sport in Soul Red). They're not Ferrari's or Porsche's, but they are an important investment to me. And I love to detail cars, so I consider myself a serious enthusiast.
My polisher is just a Porter Cable 7424xp but I like it. I have all the necessary foam pads and cleaners as well. I will be watching your videos on your products to see if they are what I can use. In the meantime, keep the videos coming. By the way, I noticed in another video, someone posted some dumbass comment about you talking too much and not enough info ?!?! O say screw him and keep doing what your doing ok? I like your style, I like how you explain things, and I like your personality. You have a way of explaining things so people get it.
Ok, enough rambling, have a great 4th of July ling weekend ok bud ? :))
Mike
Thanks for the kind words Mike! Glad to help and glad to hear people appreciate it.
Love your videos man, they are so relaxing to watch and contain so much good information, sadly i just found your channel
the tip about being mindful of seat and mirror settings before the cleaning is so on point. I have a weird eye for things like that and after a wash if I go to get in the car and the seat is left moved up it kind of stalls my appreciation of the fresh wash. i don't even know how i ended up watching this but great video!
You sir are a TRUE professional. Much respect.
I use the 12 bucket system
I use a no bucket system because i have a pressure sprayer. No buckets = no bullshit.
3 grit guards per bucket or it's a no-go!
@@barristanselmy2758 wonders why his paint is magically coming off....
watch any detail video. When do they ever use a “pressure washer..” = no thinking to his “BS.”
Hey Larry, was wondering if you could do a video about detailing exhaust tips and what products you would recommend for cleaning and polishing. I've read articles that recommend using things like 0000 steel wool and I'm not sure if that's really safe without high risk of scratches.
I recently got into washing/detailing my own vehicles and iam enjoying it more and more thanks for the tips brother.
Thank you for sharing with us your knowledge about car detailing. Your videos are always excellent and help me to maintain my car safely. I have purchased your products and look forward to using them.
What did you cover with the bag and water on the alternator and battery isn't an issue???
Hey Larry. I'm sure you've answered this before but I can't find it. Which car manufacturer would you say has the "best" paint? What I mean by best is most durable and easiest to look good once cleaned.
it's refreshing to watch an old video
Just found your videos; Excellent. Thank you for taking the time to teach.
Hey Larry, I wanted to hear your opinion about Chemical Guys, as another professional detailer.
Hmmmm.... Not sure it matters how I feel about them. Sometimes it best to hold ones tongue. :)
Bro I can't afford all these products lol
Meguiar's gold class soap. Works well. Use more than directed to make sure you have plenty of lubrication. Double the dose for your wheels.
Armor all wheel cleaner. Spray it on your wheels like the "plum" pre spray. Use it as a pre spray yourself. Then, using your over-concentrated gold class soap, clean the wheel like normal.
Get his "skin" defense coat. Easy as pie to put on and buff off, and is amazing stuff. Yes, it's 65 bucks....but I've kept my car skinned to the max for over 2 years, and have about have the bottle left. It's actually enjoyable to apply.
You can always start washing cars with a Thong so you earn money to buy these products lol 😂
@@marlonestrella8105 .
Thank you for making your video Larry. I get everything you do 100%, even the thought of cleaning the drivers side area of the window first! Watching your video helps me ensure I have done everything to keep my paycheck.
Thank you for showing people the right way to clean a vehicle. I was so impressed with Larry's videos I bought products from him and his products are as impressive as he is. Products are great and his personal online support is fantastic. Larry Rocks!
Thx!
Damn man. I spent 5 hours this weekend washing, claying, compounding and sealing my car and it doesn't look anywhere close to as sharp as your Subaru after a "Sunday" wash.
hes using professional detailing products. much more exspensive.
A. N. Thanks, I'll give that a try.
A. N. lol, but you look good when you hit the streets and the looks make it all worth it! =]
Might have something to do with the time frame, 5 hours to wash, clay, compounding and sealing? think you went way to fast!
Compound will haze the surface without a follow up polish
The OCD of this guy is great, almost like a perfectionist its wonderful to see haha
This is not OCD.
Being neat and tidy =/= Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Dude you do not have to be so literal come on now
I'm big into professional car washing, and I do almost the same as you! I'm like you I get the wheels wet first before applying wheel cleaner-i find that it makes it cleaner when you do that. One thing the inside, you said clean the floor then clean back seats, it's best to clean the back seats before you do the floor cause it will push dirt onto the floor. I only use two buckets though, I wash the car then do wheels last so I can still do the 2 bucket method. It's nice seeing people that know how to wash a car good!
Bought my first real sports car a few weeks ago and got hooked on your series from Drive, another happy subscriber and soon to be customer when I switch to your products!
shouldn't you rinse after the foam gun to take off all the loose debris then you start washing? I've always done this.. I just think more scratches will occur while the foam is still on the car?
Tony F i also thought of this question whilst watching.
OCD porn lol
haha true
haha true
Ark Wood lmao 😂 so true
Thanks for the great video! I wash my truck every week and it was nice to see your techniques. Keep em coming!
Your best video dude. i enjoy seeing you work on cars like this and going through start to finish steps
This is the bob Ross of car cleaning
You mean Martha Stewart....lol
If you came to Calgary (Canada) in the winter, you'd see our definition of a dirty car.. It's absolutely horrifying
I love your work Larry .
574 dislikes? While Larry is fanatically crazy about the quality of work (and pushes his product) the guy is a natural and it's obvious this is his passion. Keep up the quality work Larry!
I'll pay ANYTHING for dust extraction. *itches nervously*
That's considered very dirty? Lol
+Darnihx if you care about your car(s) yes.
+carlos boudry I care about my car but it will be constantly dirty because where I live there is mostly dirt roads and going out for a drive will make it instantly dirty
He's a car detailer living in New York, yes sir that's dirty.
I saw lots of good reviews about this ceramic coating sites.google.com/site/SupremeNanoCoating and it's quite cheap
Darnihx iii
Awesome video Larry, I like you know the importance of washing a car and how to properly wash and detail. I have been doing it for about 15 years as well and everyone always comments on how clean my car is. I never understood how someone can purchase a vehicle for crazy money and not take care of it.
I have been following you for a while now. I am also looking into buying your products to keep my car clean. Thanks for the videos man!
Always very informative Larry! I always learn something new from your tutorials.
This is ocd to the MAX!! I'm surprised you don't wash the car inside of a filtered air room!! Lol
And it because of that he detail very expensive cars
And I thought chrisfix's steps were extreme...
I watched his video and did what he said and i thought im a pro now. Then i found this guy.........
@@trainsoffinland651 Chris is good for when you need to do a reasonable DIY job, this guy is next-level-pro.
@@darkonnis ikr 😂
Really respect your work man
I've watched a few of your videos now and they're absolutely outstanding. The level of detail you take into account is unreal.
thank you!
Best detailer by far but man his products are expensive! Like seriously 60+ dollars for a fucking wheel brush really!?
fuck his products
Go onto ebay and you will find everything you need from china dirt cheap!
I'm not sure how good that wheel brush is but the Brute wheel soap and Plum brake dust remover do work as advertised.
60 bucks??? I paid 40 for the wheel woolies, and I got 3 of them. Bought them when I got my 15 around July of 2015. Still work fantastic. The woolies rinse out the brake dust very well. Highly recommend.
As for his products, you're right. The "foam" paint wash, and the "plum" wheel spritzer, and the "brute" wheel soap is a bit much for what you get. Solution?? Get the Meguiar's "gold class" soap, and use twice the directed amount to baby your paint. Do the same for your wheels. It's cheaper even when you use dumb amounts of it!!! LOL
GET THE ARMOR ALL WHEEL CLEANER. Works just like the plum pre-spray (but I think it's better) You spray the wheel cleaner on the wheels, and it feels super slick on the wheels. And it's the same price of the plum, but you get more than twice the amount..........and no shipping.
The "skin" protectant is theeeeeeeeeee shit. GET IT!!!! Yes, it cost 65 bucks, but again, I've had it for over 2 years, and still have more than half the bottle left.
hes based out of Manhattan, NYC. fucking cigarettes are like $14 (seriously) and you hardly can smoke them anywhere.
Hey Larry, don't mean to be rude but do you think you could put the link to your website in the description?
There is an option for it in the TH-cam settings but you probably know that c;

Great work, Larry. Please keep the videos coming when time allows. Best to you.
If he calls that filthy then he has never seen someone who lives on a gravel road. Or someone who goes muddin.
Or someone from southern france.
Or 99.999% of cars that are not off the factory line, and some that are.
