being new to the culture im now learning the different ways to do a decon wash. I would have to say a 3ph wash seems better than a clay step, one less step to potentially mar the paint. Think I might have to pick up some frost bite and crystal wash I already have the radiance........... and some jtc clean maker as well!!👍🏻
I’ve been doing the same with crystal wash and griots foaming surface prep for a little while now. I think I’m going to switch to frostbite after getting a bottle from Eddie. From there I’ll rinseless with diy or absolute, and then clay towel with an iron remover.
@@NickEscoyneon super trashed vehicles, white and grey especially, you still might need an iron remover and clay, it’ll just be much easier and quicker. If I don’t have any visible iron or contamination I skip that step. It’s all about assessment really.
That Chevy grill will drip soap and water for days. I have a 2022 1500 with a similar grill. Rinse it like crazy, blow it out, 3 hours later soapy water drips out.
That’s why I always flood the car with a high volume hose after pressure washing. The pressure washer is great for knocking off grime but with these new high foaming soaps any small amount will keep getting reactivated. The hose floods out all the cracks and crevices to remove any remaining soap. You’ll still have to deal with water dripping but I’ll take that any day over soap residue especially the higher ph stuff
The only issue I have with crystal wash is that there are no visible indications that it’s removing anything, when you put it against things like iron buster and IronX it’s just tough to pick it 🫠 like why can’t it crystallize and become red or something youno
I have used the crystal wash and then wait until it crystallizes and then foam.over with higher ph snow foam. issue is that even after thoroughly washing it off ypu may still see some stains from the crystal wash. I then.habe to go.over with contact wash to.remove them.
So if I understood this correctly, you don't need to prep the surface with APC treat, Iron Decon. and Clay Bar/Mitt Decon with this system for polishing?
Do you like using Crystal Wash on ceramic coated vehicles ?? I’ve never tried it but doing a decontamination on a truck that was ceramic coated 12 months ago today thinking about trying it out
Which orifice do you prefer in that MJJC? And how much psi you running, jus got mine in and wondering if i should go 1.1…im running a cheap harbor freight 2000psi 1.2gpm i think. All upgraded hoses and gun, same nozzle you have shown
Around 7:15 in this video, while the emblems were being brushed….what was the residue (3spots) in the of that door? Those looked nasty almost as though clear had been removed. Have not tried Crystal or Frostbite.
Just put grahpene coat on my i plan to do weekly washes. Will the crystal, frostbite, and radiance combo beto strong and strip my coating. Still not to well versed in wash phs. It seems like in every video i watch someone uses something different.
@@PolishedMobileDetailing503 pardon my ignorance but I rewatched the video with headphones and I heard Jamie say that it was a 9.5 I believe on the scale with a 10:1 dilution ratio ? So genuinely curious what the case is cause I would love a product like this to have.
Crystal Wash is good, but it doesn't play nicely with all the wet weather up here so unfortunately not the best fit in my regular arsenal. Might give Frostbite a try though.
Super cool P&S has a version of this. We're slacking
BRING ON THE ACID 😤🧼💪
Make an APC first!
Referring to crystal wash? That thing has apparently been in the basement for 25 years 😂
@@JamieTheCleaner Just please no ABF like Jimbo's Pure Magic (or HF) :).

Simply can’t go wrong with some P&S fantastic work👊🏼👊🏼

Speeds up the decontamination process, nice. Time is money!

Was trying to grasp what role the Frostbite has. I am familiar with Griots foaming surface prep. Good comparison! Thanks for the insight
@@benkneisley3001 sure thing, frost bite smells much better too lol
Isn't the point of using crystal wash so you don't have to use normal iron remover ?
@@NickEscoyneon super trashed vehicles, white and grey especially, you still might need an iron remover and clay, it’ll just be much easier and quicker. If I don’t have any visible iron or contamination I skip that step. It’s all about assessment really.
Mannnn that was legit. Thanks for the video. I’m always scared to do the pre wash w chemicals but I think I’ll try the ones you showed today.
I've gotta get on the Crystal Wash train so I can try this out.
It’s nice if you can keep from inhaling it. Also would recommend an ik because trigger spraying the whole car ain’t it 😂
@@ethanblan435 my lungs are well seasoned lol
@@ethanblan435 definitely IK sprayer it up I just like to use the labeled bottle for video purposes 💪🧼
Is the smell super caustic?
@@DetailsNMe it’ll make you cough for sure but it’s not too bad
Great video and products Jamie appreciate the content.
I need to start reaching for Crystal wash more often

Yep!
Any Chevy/gmc grill 2019+ are my worst enemy.

I like big trucks and i can not lie, Thats a super nice truck. I'm glad its in good hands.
I have enjoyed using frostbite in the cannon and the bucket. How often can I use it on a ceramic coated car?
Awsome combo!💯💪🏼
Fantastic video
Very Cool
Video! Thanks JTC

Great video Jamie. What part of Louisiana you in? I’m in NWLA (Bossier City) area. Cool to see another Louisiana guy doing his thang lol.
Great prep video 👍👍
P&S came to play!
If crystal wash is acid based will it remove watermarks off glass?
It will help but not completely remove 💪
I always hate finding tar specks after the drying process..
Is crystal wash safe for headlights and tail as well?
Yes
Hmmm, decisions, decisions...P&S 3-pH system or Labocosmetica 3-pH system...Opinions please!
Labo is gonna be the stronger wash system so depends on how dirty the vehicles are 👍
Dope video,bro
So if I understood this correctly, you don't need to prep the surface with APC treat, Iron Decon. and Clay Bar/Mitt Decon with this system for polishing?
@@daj7750 you have to test spot but yes on most vehicles this will fully prep for polishing
What nozzle spray you have on that crystal wash sprayer?
What pressure washer do you run?
Do you like using Crystal Wash on ceramic coated vehicles ?? I’ve never tried it but doing a decontamination on a truck that was ceramic coated 12 months ago today thinking about trying it out

Where did u get those buckets and guards?!
Around 7:15 in this video, while the emblems were being brushed….what was the residue (3spots) in the of that door? Those looked nasty almost as though clear had been removed.
Have not tried Crystal or Frostbite.
That's water
I think I’ll stick with Carpro.
Will a good decon destroy the Resist I used as a topper for my coating?
Nope should be fine resist is pretty stout
Just put grahpene coat on my i plan to do weekly washes. Will the crystal, frostbite, and radiance combo beto strong and strip my coating. Still not to well versed in wash phs. It seems like in every video i watch someone uses something different.
No won’t bother it at all 👍 will actually help it perform better in the long run
Will the 3 PH system affect sealants or waxes?
Strips waxes and restores coatings 👍
I want to get some frostbite but what is the ph once diluted thru the cannon? Is it still alkaline ?
It will be closer to a 7 once diluted.
@@PolishedMobileDetailing503 pardon my ignorance but I rewatched the video with headphones and I heard Jamie say that it was a 9.5 I believe on the scale with a 10:1 dilution ratio ? So genuinely curious what the case is cause I would love a product like this to have.
@@joerossi4231 in a foam cannon it’s a 9.5, in a bucket dilution it goes to ph neutral approximately. 10:1 in a cannon vs 150:1 or so bucket dilution.
@@PolishedMobileDetailing503 appreciate the info thank you very much !
Cinderella gloves were the real takeaway
First!!!
ese carro esta limpio...no se que se puede ver la diferencia...nos guataria ver un carro sucio de verdad
I am looking for a high quality Citrus APC /degreaser. hat have ypu used that really looks well?
