Mistake # 11 buying a Chevy Corvette 🙄
Chris, I live in an apartment. I can't clean my car myself. How do I find a place that cleans car the way you do without get ripped off. What do I look for in a car cleaning service?
I want to formaly apologize to my Car !!!
I def just swirled tf outta my black paint 😣😣😖
Before watching this
I didn’t read all 7300+ comments so this might have been mentioned already…remember to remove the tags from the towels. Those will scratch too. I was surprised you didn’t mention that in the video.
You care a lot for your cars yet don’t seem to mind doing the detergent rinsing right beside the lawn.
I saw your face in one vid you were going down on the hood in a different vid
Don't lower your windows right after washing car..
Wait at least 10 minutes.. it will leave water streaks.
Chris, what about drying with a synthetic chamois?
One car cleaning mistake I made is cleaning the exterior before cleaning the interior.
0:13 #1 taking car to carwash
0:48 #2 cleaning car in hot direct sunlight
1:24 #3 using dish soap/degreaser
1:55 bonus tip, clean bucket before washing
#4 not using lubricant
3:22 #5 using any towel other than a micro fibre/tuffeled towel
3:44 #6 not cleaning car from top to bottom
Bonus tip, snap towel out to get gunk off it before washing
5:28 #7 don’t clean car in swirling motion
5:44 #8 not using two buckets
7:15 #9 reusing a towel after dropping it on the ground
7:39 #10 putting any chemicals on parts of the car that would make driving dangerous
Smh yea car wash ruined my finish
Always open/close the door for your girlfriend/wife. She’ll think you are super considerate and you’ll get chivalry bonus points. You’re just ensuring, however, that she doesn’t scratch the crap out of your car with her fingernails or jewellery.
Do you have some tutorial video that teach how to clean the microfiber towels? I am from Brazil, and unfortanately, the products, including the towels, are high expensive
I agree with everything except the car wash. When you live in a state that has tons of snow and you get salt all of the roads and you don't want your car to rust you have no choice. ( No I am not hooking a hose up to my hot water heater & running it outside so I can wash off the car.)Plus when you live next to pine trees and all sorts of debris that gets on your car again sometimes you have no choice. I do fine detailing on the car always( clay, wax,etc) but I do have to use a car wash. Sorry bro. My paint is fine in the car looks brand new.
Car washes that has jet streams cleans your car without rubbing in the dirt, idiot hahahah
Whats your opinion on using a chamois to dry a car?
Just a quick warning: NEVER EVER GIVE TO YOUR DOG ANY OF THE FOLLOWING: Pizza sauce, onions, avocados, peaches, plums, persimons, raw eggs, milk, fish, salty and sugary foods, and of course, the infamous chocolate!
I thought you of all people would understand rims vs wheels but nope
is a water absorber cloth good to use?
Hi
Well my car starts at 1900 RPM (on tachometer)when it is cold and it takes 3 to 5 minutes to get to normal round 800 RPM. What can I do?
Ive always used one bucket.. gotta get another bucket now 🤙ðŸÂ¼
gonna take the bus
Great video Chris! I would like to add using a leaf blower or vacuum in blow mode, to remove the water from the car surface. This reduces the wiping required with any cloth (microfiber is the cloth of Choice!). This is especially beneficial with ceramic, wax or synthetic wax coated cars. Thanks again – keep up the great work!
error number 11: washe your car using shoes and socks
weelll technically, our sense of touch is always "hurting" because what we feel is pain yet its not bothering pain like a sting or such so basically i should use a power washer only if its off
hey chris can u pls link some good screw drivers:)
When you make your soap and wodder spray, how much soap and what kind of soap do you mix with your wodder?
Now I realized I've been doing the wrong things in our car for years
DON'T take your heand in front of any powerwasher.. pls.. I did it once accidentally and it ripped off my skin
I have hard well water. Washing a car at home makes it worse.
good advise , i will do in my car, now I FOUND MY MISTAKES
This guy just loves cars
Hey, im a classic car cleaner definitely aint a builder but i saw you always recomend microfiber and never old t-shirts ive been using them but i dont see the need have you done a comparison video?
This is the common sense we need
Any plans for the corvette in future videos?
Awesome info
HeeeeHhheh waduh maadest finisH: 'i obviuslee dint kuver everyth' ðŸ˜â€Â
that guy in the yelloW shirt waZent chRisFix* ! Wadduh jip! 😤ðŸ˜ÂÂ
😉
my top cleaning car mistake is taking the car to those self serve car washes. sometimes they dont get all of the dirt off and when your doing it in the day, when you go back home the car will be looking exactly the same when you took it to the carwash.
didnt you use dish soap in your super clean video? lol
hey chris, what gsm (Grams per square meter) rated micro-fiber cloth would u suggest for cleaning the outer body of the car and the glass parts of car such as front & rear windshield (rear windshield has defogger lines), windows, IRVM & ORVMs?
i assume it would vary depending on which part of the car we gonna clean & whether if it is wet cleaning using water/soap or dry cleaning/dusting off of already loose dry-dust particles before wet cleaning ?
im too busy to clean my car so going to the carwash is my only option. ðŸ˜â€Â
That Chris Fix knows it all!
I use a self service $2 for 300min power wash, it has soft water, and has a wax mode so the car shines next time you clean it, it also has a degreeser so you can strip your old wax and apply new one, and most importanlty the water is constantly 30deg C
