I played baseball with Chris as a kid and he loved the car washes we'd put on to raise money. He just didnt want them to end. It was pretty crazy, he'd run one most weekends for fun and even during the winter he wanted me to help him put on a carwash. We lived in Minnesota and it would be freezing and he didnt care. Good to see him still washing cars.
These guys are as dedicated, knowledgeable and detail-oriented in cleaning your cars as your mechanics are with repairing and maintaining them. Amazing work!
I'm not going to watch a 23 minute video on washing a car... 23 minutes later: Wait, is that it? Nothing earth-shattering I didn't already know, but this video is just awesome. Great explanations and demo. Perfect amount of information without rushing or been boring. These guys rock and Jay is the best as usual! Thanks!
The Porsche 356 Carrera 2000 GS happens to be my favorite car in Jay's collection. The video revealed a lot of important detailing advice that prioduced fantastic results. Jay looks slimmer.
Clay bar and using a polisher has been extremely stressful to me and so I never did it, but now I feel better about it and will try my hand at it over the next few weekends....a sincere thank you to your guys and yourself for making this video.
One of the best things about detailing your own vehicle is you can often catch little problems before they become big ones. On my motorcycles, for example, it seemed there was always a fastener or two working itself loose. It's mostly simple, mindless work, and for me at least, very therapeutic.
@@terry94131 The good news Terry, your truck and Buick may look like they came from Jay's garage! He wouldn't miss those two. Tim Allen says Jay has 600+ vehicles with some outside and others in storage. The bathroom in his building is the size of my 1 & 1/2 car garage. I lost my big garage when moving here but the wife wanted it. It is sunny in his garage. It's the glow from 130+ trickle chargers.
To be fair Jay, this process is easier said than done . The first time l used a polishing machine on my mk 2 M.G Midget way back in the warly '70's l left burn marks all over the place ! Back then it was T-Cut or Brasso and coarse cutting compound and very heavy , single speed machines . But practise makes perfect .....so they say ! Since then l've won many accolades for my restoration skills . And today we have a miriad of machines and polishs for all finshes . Thankyou Jay.
I love seeing these cars you wouldn’t normally see on the streets and see them here on the channel. From the earliest electric cars through VW bugs all the way to Ferrari and the newest McLaren. But. My heart still is with the 1000bhp Olds Toronado.
Of all the cars Jay has that’s my favorite. I have been trying to buy one for 40 years. Even when 356’s were affordable, this was a fortune and so hard to maintain.
At 12:00 the Detailer mentions maybe going to a Body Shop to test the polisher on an old an old body part. That's a good idea, or you could do what I do, which is to test my polisher on my neighbors car.
When I was in college in the early 1960's the 356 was my dream car. My first Porsche was a 1971 911-E which was a great car but today at 81 I would still like to have a 356.
As Jay said in a previous video, he most often just dusts off the cars to not put any water to it, but actually exactly this creates such terrible swirl marks.A wet car dried with microfibre cloth and then driven to dry out certainly will not be damaged by a water cleaning.
@@theundergroundlairofthesqu9261 in such a climate like California, after a wahs, driving the car dry during 10 minutes or let it 15 minutes in the sun cures any humidity at once, so not a real argument. In Northern Europe's terrible climate it's another question
That Porsche is so beautiful and now even more classy and elegant. And I don't even like black cars because they are so difficult to keep them clean and shiny. Nice work guys 👏👌💨🏁
Jay, since you asked, I'd like to see your Pierce Arrow detailed, because my maternal grandfather worked at the Pierce Arrow plant on Elmwood Ave. in North Buffalo--he might have worked on your car. 🙂
I would love to see the detail on one of the 1930's cars. I think that would be fascinating and one can learn about paint back then, maybe how to clean nickel plating and brass. Thanks Jay!
Great video, thanks. I would have loved to see the cleaning of the wheel wells. I’ve just purchased a ‘64 356SC “driver” that needs plenty of detailing and I have lots to learn. Interior detailing information from these very professional guys would be cool too!

Hey Jay! How about detailing one of your Steam Cars like the Doble or White. With so many different materials, brass, leather, paint and chrome it might be a lot of fun to see that done!
Excellent "how to" video. I've seen others on this topic, but the explanations of the "why" for the steps is quite helpful. The specific multi-bucket technique and the comments on clay mitts vs pads were enlightening. As the owner of an older black Porsche this video was inspirational - just maybe I can get my car looking close to that good. Btw - did they wax the car? I am curious about Chris' recommendations about waxing the car, both materials and techniques.
Good morning. Very cool and helpful video. If I may suggest I would like to see the guys do a detail job on the 1999 Corvette you have. Take care my friends and keep these wonderful videos coming.
Jay, would love to see a wash and detailing of a classic motorcycle. With its insides exposed, I’ve always found it more difficult than washing a car. Also worried there will be hidden moisture/eventual rust so I rarely wash. Thanks!
You guys don't need to explain yourselves to the internet trolls. Some will always have something neg to say about any process. Congrats on the opportunity to work with such a nice collection and Jay.
its funny that i just got my driving licence and im looking for a 1k car and im looking at those works of art 🤭 Anyway You're the best Jay , always remember that 🚗🌹
Jay, did you use any ceramic sealer on top after the polishing? And- how about a video on cleaning up any of the challenger's that you have. Thanks for the info you provide!
I might try bringing my 52 Pontiac with original paint back to life. I will practice on a junker with single stage paint first, though. Jay, you're getting trim there, buddy. Why I would mention that is weird but I guess I care about you pal. Oh, nice 356 and detail job by the boys. Cheers 🇨🇦
It would be great if you could do a spot on deep conditioning old vinyl convertible roofs. We have a family car we recently acquired that has the original vinyl from 1967. The Barracuda has been garaged most of it's life and has sat since 1978. There is no cracking at all in the vinyl as it has been out of direct sunlight. I would like to do some kind of conditioning of the roof after cleaning it to give it the best chance to survive putting it up and down.
Interesting last step you guys did using a microfiber pad with your jeweling compound you know, I’ve always felt that once you correct single stage it actually has more pop to it than clearcoat car in my opinion, especially if you put an awesome wax or sealant on. I wonder how a resin-based coating would do one single stage like this I would assume it’s pretty porous?

I'd say he's reached the pinnacle of car washing. Level complete.
Jay is the benchmark for all things automotive - history, collectors value, maintenance/care/detailing and just pure enjoyment - wonderful stuff!
These guys are as dedicated, knowledgeable and detail-oriented in cleaning your cars as your mechanics are with repairing and maintaining them. Amazing work!
I can't believe how good that paint looks for a car this age. Simply remarkable

I read this comment before watching and couldn’t agree more now after watching
Detailing videos without all the clown shoeing….very satisfying.
@tatocorvette Your comment screams desperate for attention, and a thumbs up… Simp
I love this type of video and seeing the professionalism of these guys.
hey Jay I've been watching you for 40 years and I'd like to just give you a hug
Great zot! I just realized it's been 40 years for me, too!
Yes we are aging as fast as Jay while he eats his samich
Great demo/tutorial! Seeing the masking process, and the polisher demos were really helpful for me.
The Porsche 356 Carrera 2000 GS happens to be my favorite car in Jay's collection. The video revealed a lot of important detailing advice that prioduced fantastic results. Jay looks slimmer.

then dont clay is like very fine sandpaper and can ruin your day
The 356 looks fantastic in Black! I think the 918 looks best in Black too!
Jay, you're team is pushing out contents like a champ!
One of the best things about detailing your own vehicle is you can often catch little problems before they become big ones. On my motorcycles, for example, it seemed there was always a fastener or two working itself loose. It's mostly simple, mindless work, and for me at least, very therapeutic.
I would love to see the detailing of the Lamborghini countach. I really enjoy your content Jay
It is healing to see a car wash/detailing job turns a car from "please clean me" into "look at me!"
Looks at filthy car outside.
Decides to watch Jay having his car cleaned.
The crappy cars we all can afford to own aren't really worth cleaning.
I bet you'd do it if you had your own personalised buckets though :)
@@johndavies8946 Jays shop is so large, the bird poop may been an inside job! Are buckets in merch? New business; screen printing buckets!
Was going to wash the truck and the Buick. Weather says rain tomorrow. Always sunny at Jay's Garage.

Chris and Jeremy, you guys are true professionals. I studied the application process for a DIY normal everyday driver.
Beautiful car in every way. Thx Jay and crew
I really enjoyed these videos. Those two guys are great and very natural on camera.
What????😂
Would love to see a full detail of the Carrera GT - including engine bay cleaning!

Great job, the car looks amazing.
These guys are PRO'S Just beautiful results.
One of the most beautiful cars ever made. If you have a Ferrari 250 Lusso that'd be nice to see detailed, especially those borani wire wheels!
I would say typical waxing, buffer speeds and interior video. Great stuff, Jay!!!
Fantastic looking Porsche!
Thanks for sharing, its a beautiful car. well done everyone.
Be keen to see one of your 70’s - 80’s spoke wheel motorcycles detailed & paint corrected
Yes! A motorbike detail would be a great next video.
I love seeing these cars you wouldn’t normally see on the streets and see them here on the channel.
From the earliest electric cars through VW bugs all the way to Ferrari and the newest McLaren.
But. My heart still is with the 1000bhp Olds Toronado.
What a car, Thank you Jay, those guys work magic, not as easy as it looks
I've been using your products for quite some time. I like them.
Of all the cars Jay has that’s my favorite. I have been trying to buy one for 40 years. Even when 356’s were affordable, this was a fortune and so hard to maintain.
Great video on how to detail a black finish. Thanks.

The old neighbor trick 😂
I had no idea liquid dish soap was bad for automobile paint.
Thanks for the tip Jay!
strips all the wax off, kinda what it is designed for... found out the hard way...on my Harley, of course...
I have a cheap Corolla, so I don't care about washing it with dish soap.
yet mechanics in the MotoGP paddock use it for everything...
@@tedsmart5539 that doesn't mean it's the right thing to do. It's the VERY worst thing for car paintwork.
@@tedsmart5539 they are mechanics, not owners, not detailers.....

I worked at several carwashes as a kid. Even got to drive a Pantera off the line. One of the highlights.
Gorgeous little car. I would love to see the new Ford GT detailed. Stay awesome!!!
Love this channel, and I love everything you post on youtube..
The products look Jay Leno's garage are making the Porsche fantastic. I love the creeper chair
As Jay said in a previous video, he most often just dusts off the cars to not put any water to it, but actually exactly this creates such terrible swirl marks.A wet car dried with microfibre cloth and then driven to dry out certainly will not be damaged by a water cleaning.
I think he's worried about rust in the nooks and crannies, and that's why he doesn't like water.

This is exactly how I wash and detail my Corolla every Friday afternoon. Nice job guys!!!
Honestly I kinda want to see a Corolla that well kept!
Mr. Leno ..Outstanding...!

The 70s soft-core p 0 r n music makes this perfect with my Saturday-morning coffee.
Products and techniques worked well; quite noticeable difference.
Wow, pretty high level of bathing your car. It’s all good. Great job
The Bugatti Atlantic type 57 would be a real treat to see detailed!! Great video Jay 🎉

Detail one of the brass era cars!!! 😍
The OCD displayed in this video is very satisfying.
Absolutely helpful and entertaining to see it be brought back to like new 👍👍
I buy your stuff at Walmart and use it on my Vette. Good stuff! Wife loves the smell!
Beautiful porsche!!

Jay’s ceramic car wash keeps my cars beading and shiny for a year. It’s remarkable stuff.
Great job guys 🎉 , more detailing vids please !
How about detailing the Citroen SM? Such an interesting car.
Or a ton of views on this but I hope you keep doing videos like it. I watched the entire thing. Good stuff!

Any simple tips on cleaning the inside of windshield and rear window?
Have used several products and still see smudges.

I love this car.
I would like to see one of your favorite cars - the Duzi detailed :)
Another great J Leno video

Thanks for sharing Jay! Enjoyed the VW video.💯👊👍
I would love to see your team do a full detail on a motorcycle with lots of chrome.
Amazing detailing beautiful job
I want those Jay Leno buckets!
How long did it take?

Oh, nice 356 and detail job by the boys. Cheers 🇨🇦
You guys make it look so easy!! ;-)
Back in the mid 90s I would use Murphy’s oil soap for the older cars. It did its job for what for what I needed.
Beautiful car.
Great video! Mike from Missouri

😂
2 creams, 1 sugar. 😊

Dang….This guy takes car washing to a whole different level.
No doubt it seems that way to most people, but among detailers this is a fairly average day’s work.

Great episode. Let’s see them take on a convertible top.
❤great video
Curious if just washing with that ceramic wash that comes in the kits is all you do, or does it need some sort of wax after?
Please do more of these how-to videos.
I was curious about how the paint correction is sealed/protected. Is the ceramic wax the sealant, or is the sealant a different product?
