It's ALWAYS a pleasure using Chem-X, Bob! Thanks for the opportunity! Have a great week sir!✌️... U think a 3 X 3 machine would cut that time in half? (3k psi X 3gpm)...

@yasserabbady7854 hey Thank You! I appreciate the compliment and your support. You can use my link and save some money on chemicals... you will save the most when Bob has a sale though for sure! Take Care!
Phenomenal results! Great tutorial with Chem X stars & stripes. Thank you for the great tips. Starting bottom to top. Finally rinse off top to bottom. Another great video! Keep putting out this quality of content
Hey Buddy, yer too kind! I had a great time making this one today! The results were mind boggling AND I didn't even have to touch it! Amazing! Have a great week Tim and thank you for ALL the continued support!
Haven't seen much in the way of chemx products being used in anything other than equipment, nice to see someone using it. I've been watching chemx and other detailers including M.A.D detailing who also does the bottom up pre-wash/pre-rinse. I've done both approaches myself, anybody who doesn't think bottom up is superior has either never tried it or is just disingenuous. Doing a touch less wash is awesome for 2 scenarios IMO. 1 doing a pre wash in something that the paint is in great shape underneath a bunch of crud, this will help prevent introducing scratches b4 hand washing something you don't want to put the time into polishing. 2 for maintenance washing vehicles that are already waxed/sealed. I think the problem is some people think the touch less system is a supplement for a hand wash, and iron decon. Both are superior for different purposes, touch less is great for productivity and economically. Hands on approach is super if your looking for perfection, touch less will rarely give you perfection but it gets you most of the way there and save a considerable amount of time. I think I'll have to give the stars and stripes a shot, I've been hesitant to try them because the machines he uses are both heated and way more powerful than my little Walmart pressure washer and I wasn't sure how much effect the soaps had compared to the heat and 4000psi he uses.
Wow man, Thank You. I'm so glad that you are open minded to this process. Yes, bigger machines like a 3X3 or a 3X4 would speed this up but it is NOT NECESSARY to get awesome results. I've used this system for over 2 years now and I would argue that for 99% of the people wanting clean and Shiney cars, this is the quickest, easiest and BEST way to get it done.thanks for watching and yes, definitely give Stars & Stripes a try. It is the BEST touchless on the market. I have tried about 5 of these touchless systems and Nothing compares. One or two are close but Chem-X is King of this type of system. Good luck and have a good 1 !
@@detailit I remember you saying something about a easy to turn horizontal or vertical foam foam cannon, the one got I found from another detailing channel doing a review on it. It's a sooprince foam cannon, it's like $20 on Amazon, it foams close to as good as the top dollar ones in all the reviews I've seen (haven't personally tried any high dollar cannons). Just make sure you got the right orifice in it and it foams nice and thick, even with my little 1.2gpm pressure washer, and it has a adjustable pattern, angle and a nice clear bottle.
Hi yes I av have seen that one b4. Seems like a great value! I can't knock cheaper cannons. I actually have like 8 cannons in my garage🤣 It's some sort of addiction🤷♂️... I enjoy messing around with all sorts of things... Thank You for the info I appreciate it. Take care!
If u watch Bob on Chem x…. He always uses cold water to show what it does…. Rarely he uses heat… but when he does, he clearly states it. I’ve been using touchless washes for years on my semi and there’s two main reasons to rinse bottom up…. For one, it’s just to see where you have rinsed…. Second is that with touchless… your not rinsing your just wash the soap off…. Your supposed to be within 12” or do from the surface… keeping the wand a constant distance from the paint ( which means you can’t stand in the middle of the car and rinse in both directions) you have to walk the wand back and forth … basically like painting a car…. And you overlap your passes by 50%… …. People think washing is washing… but if you don’t overlap your passes, you will see where the wand got farther away from the panel…. The chemicals do 90% of the work…. But there is a technique that has to be followed… I love using it for the frame/ intricate areas that would take slot of time to wash by hand
That's absolutely incredible Doug. I am gonna start calling you "The Chem-X King!". You have really changed my view of touchless washing and I am testing the process for myself now. I think I am a convert. At least for 80% of the washing I will be doing from now on. The rest will be supplemented by Rinseless washing and then finally, maybe 5% bucket/mitt/soap washing. That Chem-X system with the low PH, then followed immediately by high PH is a brilliant system. Compared to almost every other touchless type wash you see on RUclips, all the other ones always have at least a little film of dirt left someplace. Not with Chem-X. It literally dissolves any dirt on the vehicle and flushes it away. AMAZING! And it saves so much time too. Doing this type of wash once a week is all you would need to keep a daily driver in good shape, and it would only take you a half hour at most, even with the drying stage if you used a leaf blower to blow off the vehicle making it a true touchless from start to finish. More companies need to invest in making great (and effective) true TOUCHLESS type wash systems like Chem-X has. It's a great way to wash and maintain a vehicle and there is certainly a market for these type products. Currently, only a few companies have what they market as "touchless". Have you tried the Bilt Hamber Touchless product yet? I was just curious how it compared to Chem-X?
Wow! Thank You! What MUSIC TO MY EARS! Ya know what's funny? Years back I was super intrigued by Bilt Hamber and I never could afford it and then there was shipping and delays bc it wasn't really available everywhere in the U.S. at the time. I think now it's definitely n Italy one that has gained popularity and is much easier to get. Honestly I still have not tried it. I think it's because I have found so many really good products that are great pre washes or touchless that I don't even look their way anymore. I have no doubt that they ate excellent! My "Go-To" is Stars & Stripes but I do like trying competitors and trying new options for sure. I love what I do as a hobby; It's just so fun! I think you have a great theory, and I like how you have a plan and exact use for the Chem-X stuff. That's awesome! BTW, that Lexus wash took way longer than it should have. Less talking and a bigger pressure washer would have made that about an 8 minute to 10 minutes wash. Flow is key. Hey Thank you so much for all your support and kind words. I appreciate you. HAPPY WASHING!!!✌🏼
I’m a huge fan of Chem-X. Love the snake oil 💯 I use on my vehicles, but Griot’s garage wash & wash ceramic 3-1 works pretty damn good too & is $21 for 48oz bottle and lasts months. I use that on my clients vehicles.
Hi and Thanks for the share! Griots makes a descent touchless system too! Have u tried that one?.. actually very affective. I have heard amazing things about Griot's 3n1 ... I'm glad u stopped by. Thank You and Take care!!
i love Stars n stripes but pivot is it on cars in good condition. it worries even better truly cleans without touching if you wash your car every two weeks after its really cleaned the first time, this is the best option with way less effort. but if your car is filthy per wash 1st then switch to Chem X touchless
Hey Mr. Seem! Ty for the comment and the continued support brother! I really appreciate it. I Just Love trying different methods to find that Sweet spot! This process Crushed it today... Phenomenal! Have a great week Richard, Take Care!
Hi and Thanks for checking it out. Yeah, this is their spare vehicle so it sits curbside 99% of the time. IT needs the hood redone badly.... I have some ideas I want to try on the paint... maybe one day.. hey, have a great week!🙏✌️
Mr King of touchless. The car was hammered. You did have me cringing when you didn't blow the leaves off. Inhave never had good results with touchless. Stars and strips looks like they have a good set-up. I was really surprised with the results. It would be a major time saver for doing RV's. Brother thanks for the great video and review.
🤣🤣🤣King of Touchless..... Under 2200 subs🤣🤣. I couldn't resist! Honestly, I have used 4 touchless systems and one more I just received to try. No one has impressed me like Chem-X. WashChems Pro 50 is very good too, but that one can streak bare aluminum... I have NEVER had that problem with this set up, Stars & Stripes! Good to hear from you Timbo, have a great week sir! Take 'R Easy!!
Im agree with my bud detail it, until now chem x is the king of touchless you haters, I use this stuff since it was released and I’m getting almost 100% or even 100% results every time now I learn how to do it it took me seven minutes to wash and dry a car with a leaf blower so that way I can make it 100% touchless
Hi and THANK YOU for the kind words. Chem-X is amazing, I'll continue to use it no matter what! It's nice to see there are other HARDCORE Chem-X users out there! Enjoy and Take Care ✌️🤘🙏
Hi and Thank You. If doing a touchless it's the beat way to rinse, bottom up. It makes life much easier and you won't zebra stripe the vehicle. Enjoy and take 'r easy
We started using touchless soaps at the fire house for the ambulance and engines and the trucks come out amazing. For a large truck, touchless is the way to go to keep it clean. We use Wash Chems Pro.
Hey there! Man, Eddie is amazing. He's always trying to help someone, a great dude! Man, I've been pumping this stuff for two to three years now. People shun it and I cannot figure out why? Maybe it's bc they aren't mainstream auto detailers... I don't know... Anyway, this stuff is the BEST #touchless wash available on the market that I have seen and or used. I've used Chem-x, Image, mirror finish, renegade, washchems and Jimbos. So far there hasn't been anything that does a better job! In the winter this stuff is #PRICELESS . Thanks for watching and for the inquiry. Be 👍🏼 good!
I have to assume you’re in cali. Based on the construction company truck. Recognized the company. Used live in that area of the state. For a touch less wash it came out really good. I did a touch less when I’m short on time and in between a full wash. Great job.
Hi and Thank You. I really like this system. A hand wash then the next time using a great touchless system makes sense. I like it! Thanks for taking the time. Take 'R easy!
Yes, certainly. Cat by active pressure washer. MTM 50'X3/8" hose MTM mezzo valve Chem-X chrome cannons X2 Mjjc V3 foam cannon X1 Active stubby gun MTM bent lance .... I think that's about it... hope this helps
Wow! That thing was hammered! I think there is definitely a benefit to having a touchless, but for some reason it always leaves a film behind. This doesn't seem to do that! Great video!
Mornin MillS ! How have u been Brother? Have you ever tried this system? It's amazing, Chem-x is the KING of touchlesss. No other system that I have tried has done it better... close but not quite as good... I just think this system is a Huge asset for mobile guys.. with a 3X3 machine, you can WASH a small car in like 6-8minutes... take care man. Have a great week.
Hello, yes, it would. If it's hot and sunny, you'd have to rinse to cool the paint, then do this process. I've washed in low 90's without issue in direct sun....
Yes! Bottom up is the best way to track your last pass. This is very important when doing a touchless wash so you don't zebra stripe the vehicle. Also, when rinsing top down, you may get stteaking... go bottom up THEN top down!
Hey there! Honestly this car has horrible paint so the neighbor just wanted it cleaned. It was the perfect canvas for Stars & Stripes... thanks for watching, much appreciated
Couples years back started out the trunk of my car mobile detailing. Coming back better setup better equipment. Considering the real deal kit to save the hassle of all the soaps and sponges. Save time and efficient with my spotless water system.
Right on pre washing with the heavy duty with the leaves all over it. I keep wash chems pro 50 for that, stuff is a heavy hitter, but not as good touchless as stars & stripes!
😆😆I couldn't resist plus you know how the haters are. I HAD to leave the leaves on it. This car turned out great for how hammered it was. I was very pleased with it! Good to hear from you Martin! Have a Merry Christmas Brother! Take Care!
Hi. I believe I did my "PRE-WASH" with Heavy Duty which is an AMAZING wheel & tire cleaner. Then the Stars & Stripes. Completely touchless, zero brushes or mitts. If you need to "DEEP CLEAN" the wheels, just follow up afterward and spend some time on your wheels... or do that 1st. Whatever works for you. Thanks for watching
Hey, I cannot remember. It was done in December so I'm guessing 55° ish... I have used this in low 90° weather u just need to pre rinse to make sure the paint is cooler and then move quick....
Hi. I have never seen anything like that when I wash with this system. I'm wondering if the soap has dried on the panel? Even with that as a possibility, I'm not sure you would have spots. The next time this happens, redo it right away, dry it, and see... keep me updated if you don't mind. If this continues, wash smaller sections before moving on.
@Smllc22318 I have never seen any nor heard of any. When you layer the acid then alkaline soaps, they neutralize, then rinsing dilutes again. I believe this is an absolutely safe system. I have used it dozens of times without any problems. Hope this helps Take care!
Hey brother I always coment on your videos , you have the best tutorials for washing cars and testing products, I just wash my car today, is white, I use only 4 ounces of each on a ryobi foam cannons, are you familiar with it? Those are the best sprayers for this kind of touchless washes You actually don’t need something that foams, just put a layer over the other like you say, Im getting all the time pretty much 98% results depending the season, its weird but on summer time works better and always get 100% results
Hey Brother! Thank you very much for the compliment and for your support on the channel! I have not used the Ryobi cannon , and I believe, like you stated, foam isn't critical. The chemicals still do the heavy lifting and maybe even better without heavy foam! As far as the summer versus winter, these chemicals do work better in the heat, but it makes me 😓 nervous! Bob from Chem-X told me that anytime you can add heat (sun or hot water washer), the Chemical works better!! When it's warmer outside , I just move faster.. Thank you for sharing and watching. I really appreciate you!👊🏼 Take care!
Can anyone help me out i got this product ..got 5 gallon containers and put 1 gallon of product and 3 gallons of water..just like guy on u tube from chem x said..I'm getting real bad water spots on vehicle and real bad spots on window..I have to clay bar windows to get spots out..
It may be your water. If not, make sure you rinse it thoroughly, and dry before any of the spots dry out. If it's warm out, you have to move kind of fast especially of you are in direct sun. Also, you should use 4 gallons of water to one gallon of soap... 4:1 =5 gallons. Let me know if this helps. Take care
If you were to calculate it, minus the chatter, I'm betting it was only like 15 gallons 25 max... I haven't calculated it but this machine is very efficient.. personally I like 3gpm.... this one is near 2gpm... not nearly as bad as it seems.... now, if I were to have used the garden hose this much, it would have been 50,60, or maybe even 70 gallons... it was an overall win.
@@detailit how well would this work if you don’t pre rinse. You just quickly do both stars and strips. Followed up with a rinse from top to bottom. I get yelled at and fined if I use to much water were I live in cali.
@jordyworley91 it's actually intended to be put on the panel dirty and dry. ALWAYS rinse bottom up with a touchless washes, it just makes tracking your passes easier. The only reason I pre-rinsed was because of how Hammered this one was..
Indeed! The paint was in really bad shape.. tons of road rash. I figured a wash was the best I could do here.... I'd love to buy this one. Japan built Lexus. One of the good ones... it needs some love, so I'd make it a project car... commute to and from work... This was a fun video and Chem-x delivered as always! Thanks for washing!
I don’t think you need to use the APC to get those results I get those results before without the degreaser and my car was black, dark color and even filthier that one do another video go a little bit heavy on the stripping stars and you’ll get the same results
This is just a demo. If I did this for a living, first off I wouldn't have used a 2x2 machine. It would have been at least a 3x3 which would effectively cut the time in half. So roughly 12 minutes. Also worth stating, a car this dirty wouldn't have been a great hand wash option. This was several months of neglect. Touchless is perfect for vehicles like this. Check out the Chem-X channel on RUclips. Bob can wash a car in 6 minutes..... flow and psi play a HUGE part in this.
I dont think you know how to use these products. Stars then stripes to shock it, no rinsing in between. Also, youre right, your videos are long winded.
Apparently you have No idea what you are talking about. They go right over each other before rinsing. My lungs are in great shape. Now re watch it and pay attention!
Oh heck yeah nice wash Doug👏💯
It's ALWAYS a pleasure using Chem-X, Bob! Thanks for the opportunity! Have a great week sir!✌️...
U think a 3 X 3 machine would cut that time in half? (3k psi X 3gpm)...
Yeah the higher gpm allows much faster washing, for cars that would be a great spec, for big rigs the fastest guys use 8gpm generally@@detailit

I just think this system is a Huge asset for mobile guys.. with a 3X3 machine, you can WASH a small car in like 6-8minutes... take care man. Have a great week.
I love the process and would be interested in trying it with one of my clients but this process would be difficult to do in the sun though right?
Hello, yes, it would. If it's hot and sunny, you'd have to rinse to cool the paint, then do this process. I've washed in low 90's without issue in direct sun....
@@detailit Thank you
How do you dry it at the end so it doesn’t leave all the nasty etched water spots
You can blow dry it or towel dry it.... waterspots will depend on your TDS level in your water.
Can you explain WHY do you rinse from the bottom up? 🤔
Yes! Bottom up is the best way to track your last pass. This is very important when doing a touchless wash so you don't zebra stripe the vehicle. Also, when rinsing top down, you may get stteaking... go bottom up THEN top down!
nice video Doug am a hughe fan of ChemX curious why no snake oil
Hey there! Honestly this car has horrible paint so the neighbor just wanted it cleaned. It was the perfect canvas for Stars & Stripes... thanks for watching, much appreciated
Couples years back started out the trunk of my car mobile detailing. Coming back better setup better equipment. Considering the real deal kit to save the hassle of all the soaps and sponges. Save time and efficient with my spotless water system.
No arguments here! You Nailed it!
Right on pre washing with the heavy duty with the leaves all over it. I keep wash chems pro 50 for that, stuff is a heavy hitter, but not as good touchless as stars & stripes!
😆😆I couldn't resist plus you know how the haters are. I HAD to leave the leaves on it. This car turned out great for how hammered it was. I was very pleased with it! Good to hear from you Martin! Have a Merry Christmas Brother! Take Care!
I like this for a black car set up deep clean once and touchless 2 to 3 times until another deep clean
Amazing way to do it! I Like the theory! Thanks for checking this one out. Much appreciated!!🙏✌️
What did you do for rims and tires? You just sprayed that on? No deep cleaning them?
Hi. I believe I did my "PRE-WASH" with Heavy Duty which is an AMAZING wheel & tire cleaner. Then the Stars & Stripes. Completely touchless, zero brushes or mitts. If you need to "DEEP CLEAN" the wheels, just follow up afterward and spend some time on your wheels... or do that 1st. Whatever works for you. Thanks for watching
Awesome 👌
Stars & Stripes is a BEEEEAST!
What's the temperature outside there
Hey, I cannot remember. It was done in December so I'm guessing 55° ish... I have used this in low 90° weather u just need to pre rinse to make sure the paint is cooler and then move quick....
No Problem I'm have try the Starts out
Does anyone have little white soap spots after wash and dry. Works great just wondering what I’m doing wrong
Hi. I have never seen anything like that when I wash with this system. I'm wondering if the soap has dried on the panel? Even with that as a possibility, I'm not sure you would have spots. The next time this happens, redo it right away, dry it, and see... keep me updated if you don't mind. If this continues, wash smaller sections before moving on.
Why not wipe different parts of the car
It's just a DEMO of "TOUCHLESS" washing. With the bigger pressure washers, this would have been done in under 10 minutes.
Is it safe for Ceramic Coated cars?
I have never had an issue with it on A ceramic coated vehicle. I'd say Yes it is!
What is in that stuff that isn’t in “normal” foam?
Hi, it's the Ph. Levels. Stars is 2, Stripes is 13.
@@detailit so what happens if it accumulates in a door jamb or something and just sits there. Does that area develop any paint damage ?
@Smllc22318 I have never seen any nor heard of any. When you layer the acid then alkaline soaps, they neutralize, then rinsing dilutes again. I believe this is an absolutely safe system. I have used it dozens of times without any problems. Hope this helps
Take care!
@@detailit didn’t know one was alkaline the other acid. That pretty much answers any questions I’d have. Thanks for the replies. I’m going to try ig
@Smllc22318 don't let the PH levels scare u. They Neutralize once layered. Completely safe as long as they don't dehydrate on a hot panel.
What brand/model is that 3/8 hose?
That is an MTM Kobrajet smooth blue hose. It says Pressure Flex 4150 3/8 on the hose.
Any discount codes for chem x?
Hey John! There should be a link in the description section. Click it and shop. The discount is 10% on Chemicals. Thanks so much!
Hey brother I always coment on your videos , you have the best tutorials for washing cars and testing products, I just wash my car today, is white, I use only 4 ounces of each on a ryobi foam cannons, are you familiar with it? Those are the best sprayers for this kind of touchless washes You actually don’t need something that foams, just put a layer over the other like you say, Im getting all the time pretty much 98% results depending the season, its weird but on summer time works better and always get 100% results
Hey Brother! Thank you very much for the compliment and for your support on the channel! I have not used the Ryobi cannon , and I believe, like you stated, foam isn't critical. The chemicals still do the heavy lifting and maybe even better without heavy foam! As far as the summer versus winter, these chemicals do work better in the heat, but it makes me 😓 nervous! Bob from Chem-X told me that anytime you can add heat (sun or hot water washer), the Chemical works better!! When it's warmer outside , I just move faster.. Thank you for sharing and watching. I really appreciate you!👊🏼 Take care!
Can anyone help me out i got this product ..got 5 gallon containers and put 1 gallon of product and 3 gallons of water..just like guy on u tube from chem x said..I'm getting real bad water spots on vehicle and real bad spots on window..I have to clay bar windows to get spots out..
It may be your water. If not, make sure you rinse it thoroughly, and dry before any of the spots dry out. If it's warm out, you have to move kind of fast especially of you are in direct sun. Also, you should use 4 gallons of water to one gallon of soap... 4:1 =5 gallons. Let me know if this helps. Take care
Tks ill try that I'll just fill up cannon half way and add other half of water see what happens ..tks a whole bunch..
Everything looks good wet though. I'd like someone to show the car after it's just blown off and air dried.
You'll have to take my word for it or buy a 32 oz. Of each and try it. I'm telling you, Stars & Stripes are the BEST touchless you will find. Enjoy
I feel like you used so much water though 😢
If you were to calculate it, minus the chatter, I'm betting it was only like 15 gallons 25 max... I haven't calculated it but this machine is very efficient.. personally I like 3gpm.... this one is near 2gpm... not nearly as bad as it seems.... now, if I were to have used the garden hose this much, it would have been 50,60, or maybe even 70 gallons... it was an overall win.
@@detailit how well would this work if you don’t pre rinse. You just quickly do both stars and strips. Followed up with a rinse from top to bottom. I get yelled at and fined if I use to much water were I live in cali.
@jordyworley91 it's actually intended to be put on the panel dirty and dry. ALWAYS rinse bottom up with a touchless washes, it just makes tracking your passes easier. The only reason I pre-rinsed was because of how Hammered this one was..
Pressure washer don’t
@@RICHYSUNCLE 🎯
Just needs little Snake Oil to put the cherry on top.
Indeed! The paint was in really bad shape.. tons of road rash. I figured a wash was the best I could do here.... I'd love to buy this one. Japan built Lexus. One of the good ones... it needs some love, so I'd make it a project car... commute to and from work...
This was a fun video and Chem-x delivered as always! Thanks for washing!
A reasonable place to work wouldn't hurt...
True that!
Not for this little black duck but impressive chemical no doubt.
🤙🏼...It's not for everyone and it is Impressive. Thanks for checking this one out!
I don’t think you need to use the APC to get those results I get those results before without the degreaser and my car was black, dark color and even filthier that one do another video go a little bit heavy on the stripping stars and you’ll get the same results
Oh wow! Great info, I'll have to try that next Time! Thank You!
Ok mel gibson from wish do it to my car
All that for it just to be mid it wound have been better to just hand wash it look better cost less and take less time
This is just a demo. If I did this for a living, first off I wouldn't have used a 2x2 machine. It would have been at least a 3x3 which would effectively cut the time in half. So roughly 12 minutes. Also worth stating, a car this dirty wouldn't have been a great hand wash option. This was several months of neglect. Touchless is perfect for vehicles like this. Check out the Chem-X channel on RUclips. Bob can wash a car in 6 minutes..... flow and psi play a HUGE part in this.
I dont think you know how to use these products. Stars then stripes to shock it, no rinsing in between. Also, youre right, your videos are long winded.
Apparently you have No idea what you are talking about. They go right over each other before rinsing. My lungs are in great shape. Now re watch it and pay attention!
