    The lug nuts that showed being screwed back on looked to be on backwards but done right on one wheel at least in the after panning shot. Other than that tiny thing, cleaning is totally my jam, especially vehicles. Seeing the attention to detail and pride you take in your work makes me want to deep clean my car again. You've done that car and Jimmy a great service, be proud.

      yeaaahh. I kinda scratched my head at that. If you're going to replace the wheels/tires, then spring for some new Acorn lung nuts (can't put those on backwards). ^~^

    • @grantf220
      @grantf220 Год назад +11

      thinking about it, there's no way this guy who has cleaned thousands of cars doesn't know how to put on lug nuts. He probably put them on backwards to generate comments like this, in order to boost his metrics on engagement.

    • @AkihikoTakeba
      @AkihikoTakeba Год назад +4

      @@grantf220 You’d think. Or maybe he was just mock putting it on for the camera and they were going to take it back off to clean more. Or he got distracted/has done this before. Bros front left tire fell off on the interstate because the shop didn’t tighten the nuts after doing the brakes*.

    • @Gu1tarZer0
      @Gu1tarZer0 Год назад +5

      Scrolled down for this.. I was already questioning why the car "needed new wheels because it doesn't roll"
      as if you can't just change those little tires with a tire iron in 20min.. and there's definitely no bearings in the wheels lol

    @garybush6117 Год назад +5

    Hey Foster, hello from Ocala again. Another great transformation. This episode REALLY highlighted the MAD Acid and Iron Eraser, more than any I have seen. Even though you replaced the wheels, the originals were almost, with a little more work, ready to be primed and painted. I am subscribed to Jimmy's World already, and was wondering why he was in your video. A nice guest appearance, and a great reaction at the end. I also watched the video on his channel about this car. It would be cool to see you take on his nasty motor home, and others have mentioned, perhaps an airplane some day. Great job and looking forward to the next.

  • @brucemadden1626
    @brucemadden1626 Год назад +4

    hello, nice work, do you want to be even more efficient and pragmatic?
    in Belgium we call this the Ano Method, in my opinion it is the best method is: first clean at high pressure, then go quickly without going into detail with a blower (the Revolution blower is a killer) to remove the film of water and droplets, then just drop your superb extrem APC! you will see you will have a much deeper result because it will settle on the varnish and clean it in depth.
    the reason is that the APC must be deposited either on the dirt but in this case it will be effective to soften only the dirt, or you deposit it on the varnish but dry, so no water, otherwise the water will play a role of dilution, the apc or the foam will settle above the water (the density of the water: 997kg/m2, the foam is barely 2kg/m2 or 500 times less dense, the soap will stand above the water and have a sliding effect, like a caress :-)
    therefore also effective for pre-washing with foamer.
    the Ano method is truly the best of the best.
