Can we all just take a second to appreciate how hard Yvan works every single day it seems to push out content as well as teach and run DIY Detail as a business. We are very lucky as detailers to have someone like him in the space that has done, and continues to do so much for the community. Cheers to you Yvan (and Nick)!
Thank you.
Where’s Nick, i don’t see him?😂
@jacobheinz8236 comfortably in Utah.
Pretty sure Yvan and Nick pre record batches of videos. But that in of itself is a task only dedicated individuals can do. Much respect to the DIY squad.
Yes definitely, so true
Always appreciate IVAN for what he does and the fact that he is also Transparent and honest! That I value the most! Thank IVAN!
Thank you.
So true
Timely posting? Here is the process I used on my BMW today. I sprayed it down with ONP using my 1K sprayer. Then I wiped it off using a wash mitt and a bucket of warm water. Finally I wiped the paint dry with a drying towel.
Good
$300-400 dollar keg, plus whatever the attachments go for i.e. hose, trigger and etc, then throw in the Ryobi with batteries and a charger, gotta be pushing $600, 2 keg applications, rinse, rinseless wash etc etc, take it to a car wash, get that crap off asap, worry about a detail in the spring. Nice that he hit the drivers inside door jamb, yet didn't do the hatch or the passenger door jamb ? I'm not knocking him, I do use the rinseless wash on my vehicles but only light dirt/dust/pollen. The whole foam cannon with a compressor, quick disconnects, wands, tips, et al kinda cool to do, but in all reality it's just as much perhaps less work to drag out the hose and buckets...always interesting videos....thx
Thank you.
I have over 1k in pressure washer half the time I'm lazy and trust me I don't feel like taking any of them out. I walked away from traditional washing, sometimes I feel weird washing the old way lol
What is the battery-pressure washer used in the video?
Ryobi
I think it's so cool how you can wash your car anywhere with rinseless washes.
Thank you.
There is something very satisfying about rinseless washing. Traditional washing is a chore, but rinseless is not.
Thank you.
Yet another example of using TWO BUCKETS for a ONE BUCKET wash. I'm gonna guess that having the bucket inside the other bucket helps with ergonomics so you don't have to bend quite so far ;-> I'm absolutely loving your products and great to see a variety of PRACTICAL applications. Keep rocking it!
Correct
left front rim is really bent ??????
Yeah I saw that, must have been a serious pothole.
Very rough ride from Cleveland to Atlanta.
Yvan thank you so much for this video. I was wondering the best way to deal with road salt without easy access to a hose. I was about to buy a salt remover but now I have reconsidered and will try it this way. Kudos, I love the full-length video showing the entire process and explanations rather than just snippets, great for us learning the ropes. Can't wait to christen my Ryobi EZClean and sprayer for the rinseless!
Glad to help
Thank you sir! Finally the myth of rinseless not able to clean a dirty car has been put to rest! And with no pressure washer but rather a pressure cleaner!
Thank you.
Anyone who’s skeptical about the rinsless or the sponge I’ve been there and let me tell you that it’s totally worth getting the stuff you see DIY doing is actually what the stuff does it’s not a gimmick they’re really awesome to use highly recommend adding it to your arsenal
Thank you.
I haven't watched all your videos but I have watched quite a few. This is definitely one of the best I have seen. Real world dirty car, overcast skies, excellent results, and great filming, plus a beautiful setting with animals included...so #1 video! 😄😍
Wow, thank you!
Loving the simplicity and efficiency of your videos Yvan. A great example of how someone with no utilities can wash their dirty car. Keep up the great content!
Thanks 👍
I’ve enjoyed using Rinseless so much I’m almost finished with the 16oz bottle….so I bought a gallon today😂!
That is awesome!
What if you had added rinse less wash to the bucket before using the handheld power washer? Also, I don't have a keg to pre-soak the car, but I DO have a battery powered power washer similar to the one in the video, couldn't I use that to apply the pre-soak?
Yes you could for both
Great Video- You completely validated my post snow wash method I have been using this winter. Only thing I have been doing different is I do initial rinseless application with an IK sprayer and I have rinseless in my battery pressure washer bucket. Love your rinseless wash!
Thank you.
I thought my car was to dirty for rinseless wash, I’m impressed, great video 👍😁
Thank you.
What do you recommend to do to the undercarriage of the vehicle. I’m sure it’s just as full of salt and magnesium like the paint?
Yes, unfortunately not the scope of this video, I like to use a touch free wash at the end of winter.
Washed my Tundra this am with rinseless wash. Used my IK Foam Sprayer filled with H2O, All Clean, and a splash of Incredible Suds to get the road grime off. Cleaned the tires, rims, and all along the sides and tailgate. I don't have a power washer, so I used a garden hose to rinse. Applied a coat of Ceramic Gloss just before the rains hit here in CA a couple of weeks ago. Truck looks great!
Tu
Yvan in the interest of efficiency, why not use rinseless solution in battery powered pressure washer to avoid the second re-application of rinseless from the keg. I have been doing this for 5 years using a Worx hydroshot (another battery powered pressure washer) in order to avoid further dilution of rinse water laying on panels with application of rinseless solution from sponge. Note my current rinseless passing through pressure washer is pure polymer based with no bad effects on the battery pressure washer. Would the surfactants in DIY rinseless potentially cause issues with the pressure washer pump? The other advantage is no need to worry about water spots with rinseless solution being used for rinse step (just polymer spots which are easily removed in final rinseless wash) in case your water source is hard (high mineral content).
Great idea, I just didn’t think of it.
What if there is no pressure washer (battery or not) or garden hose but only have pump spray? Can I simply pre-spray with rinseless wash, contact wash with sponge then dry?
Yes
Great video. Noticed you didn't use a drying aid like Ceramic Gloss. I would have thought that it would be even more important to use it in this case.
Drying aids are not required with DIY Detail Rinseless Wash
Yvan, what are your thoughts about simply piping in the rinseless solution through the ryobi as a replacement for the keg? I ask because I have a Ryobi but no keg and am wondering if I can use the Ryobi for all of my rinseless applications.
Would the rinseless ruin the Ryobi?
That works well, but will use more Rinseless solution
@@diydetailofficial great point!
How can you say it’s rinceless when you just rinsed it lol wth is this?
This will help explain it best.

My car was just like that one last week, as im in Cleveland as well. Presoak with rinseless, then another rinsleless spray followed by the Legacy Sponge. Only needed to touch up some areas around the emblems and front grill the next day after dirty water seeped out.
Thank you.
Less than half a gallon?? Of rinseless wash? Or the total out of the keg?
Less than 1/2 gallon was used of water and DIY Detail Rinseless Wash mixed at 256/1 dilution in the keg
I have been doing something similar with my ryobi sprayer and rinse less wash. Been loving the results all winter long less prep just having to grab a couple things. Plus it keeps my pressure washer stored away. Grad to know DIY is encouraging the process and definitely showed me a couple ways to improve the process. Thanks you guys rock!
Thank you.
Great video guys. I always appreciate a good rinseless wash! A respectful suggestion to the editor: the music playback volume is a little heavy-handed on this one. Maybe dial it back by a third? I found myself reaching out to adjust the volume a lot... Up to hear Yvan speak and down for the musical interludes. Keep up the great work! It's gotta be tough keeping up with the pace at which DIY cranks out content. 😂👍👍
Thank you.
One could use the stubby gun attachment for the keg, but it seems like it puts a lot more liquid out and drops the pressure very quick. Is that why you didn’t use it?
Correct
I'm always curious what's the upper limit of dirtiness for using a rinseless wash when no hose is available.
You will find out soon.
@@diydetailofficial thanks, although I was thinking without a hose (or cordless pressure washer)
My morning ritual now consists of drinking a cup of coffee watching Yvan rinseless wash a car. Best way to start the day!
Good morning!
What about the salt underneath the car on the metal framing How do you clean that what works best any tips tricks thanks DIY detailing, you’re a legend
There are attachments for pressure washers, or you can also take it through a touchless wash that has an undercarriage wash.
But will The Salt turun the car into a rust bucket
salt can lead to corrosion and rust over time so it's best to get it cleaned off as soon as possible
Big pothole hit the driver side front wheel
Correct.
Hi. Thank you for this video with a very dirty car. What about swirl with this method ? Thank you
No swirls
I use your product to wash my fifth wheel camper (full body paint) as well. Need to show the viewing public that has RVs how easy it is to wash the big RVs like your bus. I think this is really where your product stands out as it is hard to wash one of those all at once. Washing methodically on an RV trains you to wash your vehicle with ease. :)
Good idea
RIP the Hyundai 😢
Thank you.
i use your products already. However every new video i watch you make my life easier. I can"t thank you, ERIC, Amy, and Nick enough I love to keep my vehicles clean and your products do the job in a very short time. These products are GREAT for an older guy like myself. God Bless. Tom
Thank you.
The transformation is as awesome as the cust was frightening. Now, what to do about salt in the cavities, like doors, wheel houses etc?
That gets taken care of when we can do a wash with a hose.
I see you had a cat come over for some quality control inspection at about 15:49. Looks like you passed muster! 👍
Oh yeah! lol
Thank You for all you do for the detailing industry and individuals that take pride in thier vehicles!!
Thank you.
Suggestion: Shoot your videos in 60 frames or more for that smooth slow motion :)
Thank you.
Idk if someone asked already but whats the name of the keg thanks!
ruclips.net/video/5mTSak_uPFg/видео.htmlsi=kB7XxY-3dPReI_y4
Great video! That Ryobi, I could pee harder. It's like the pressure I get from my well water. That's why I go to self-serve car washes. What was the temperature? Im now 72 and STILL was my car by hand, even in the winter! My car is red also, & really enjoyed your filthy car video. Its what cars look like in MY rust belt. Again, thank u. Already sub'd, gave u a 👍'd.
Thank you.
Great video Yvan 👍 Your hard work and dedication is much appreciated 👍
Thank you.
Really demonstrates the effectiveness of DIY Detail Rinseless Wash!
agreed!
my car doesn't look as bad, but the amount of salt they used (maybe because they haven't had much snow for over a year) is a bit too excessive. Thx for the guidance. BTW, looks like your driver front rim looks dinged.
Thank you. Yes the potholes on I75 took their tool
I just ordered Rinseless and Water Spot remover and when I received my order both products were rock solid due to it being frozen. Are both products still OK to use after they thaw out? Yvan knows what it's like living in Ontario Canada.
They will be fine
Very appropriate music to this video. DIY Rinseless wash is an amazing product and can do heavy work. We will miss the Veloster but look forward to the Jeep. Thank you for another educational video.
Thank you.
Music is subjective which means it should not be used as background noise.
2 New Product requests ! Could you guys develop a gallon sized Water Spot remover concentrate that can be mixed with water in a sprayer bottle. And secondly a strong hand cleaner from all the chemicals don't want to come off. Just my personal suggestions to expand your sales 🧐
Thank you.
So I've decided to go "all in" on rinsless and acquired a keg from Scott. I did a salty car yesterday (although not as bad as this) and went around the car once with the keg to mist on the rinseless and let it start to do it's job. Then I went around again and set the nozzle for a bit more pressure and essentially used it as a substitute for a pressure washer and sprayed top to bottom trying to push down the gunk off the paint. Used about 1.5-2 gallons total through the keg. I did not rinse before the contact wash. Was that foolish? It seems with the keg you can spray a lot off the car before the contact wash and perhaps avoid rinsing in cases where a rinse might otherwise be best.
That’s great
We need a video of you & Nick washing the Lacroix Cruiser
Soon
@@diydetailofficialMake Nick wash the wheels.
Awesome results!!! Incredible transformation from salt-covered to immaculately clean!!
Thanks so much!
Wait, are you guys in CLE?? I'm in CLE and want to pick up your Rinseless wash but I'm not thinking it's available at retail. Absolutely love how the red on your car POPS after the wash. Btw, I have a Veloster too. :)
No we are based in Omaha, but were recently teaching a class in Cleveland.
Does it matter how many gallons of water w/ rinseless I have in my bucket when washing my car? I use only 3 gallons for my hatchback and that includes dunking my IK sprayer for the pre-rinse (maybe another dunking if I need to rinse more before contact). In my head it's because the dirt will just fall under the gritguard anyway.
No particular qualities.
Hey Ivan, great video! I believe rinseless wash is a surfactant and polymer combo, does it leave dry polymer spots? I saw that most of the car dried so I was just curious
Correct, it leaves polymer spots that wipe off effortlessly.
I don't get it. If its a rinseless wash why do you have to rinse it? Sorry im new at all this but I love Meguires products I have used. ie: compound and polish.

ruclips.net/video/i1I6rrgPt4Y/видео.html
Great video promoting the power of the rinseless wash. When a car is that bad, doesn't the water get very dirty, thus your using dirty water on the last panels of the wash. Thus, drying off dirty water. For dirty cars, I usually use a second bucket of rinseless to rinse out my sponge, then go dunk sponge back into original bucket. More work, yes. Am I over thinking this?
There’s nothing wrong with added safety. That said yes, slightly overthinking.
If I may make a suggestion for efficiency. Skip the detail keg. Fill the bucket with rinseless and pretreat with the Ryobi sprayer. The solution plus the pressure will push the heavy stuff down and start the cleaning process. The rinseless will not mess up the Ryobi as it's designed to be chemical resistant. I use a Worx Hydroshot 750psi model in the same way for my winter wash. I usually do this on the 25 degree nozzle setting. I usually go through 3 of the 5 gallons during this process on my VW Alltrack. I then go into my wash process using 6 double flip rinseless towels. Using a separate towel for each panel keeps me from having to go back to the bucket to clean the media and also keeps the water in the bucket clean. Also from my testing a grit guard leaves about a gallon of water that can't be used in the bucket once again decreasing the efficiency. This works for me and keeps the tools to a minimum and I can wash quickly as here in the Midwest winter wash means it's just above freezing and windy. I can fit everything I need in one 5 gallon bucket.
Good plan
Hi Yvan, when doing a similare method, if the car is particularly dirty in some cases is it ever worth to pre spray/foam some APC on lower panels to break down the soil/grit before flushing with a rinseless keg? Or is it not worth the extra APC/product?
Yes, that can help.
love the product. love the person. this type of music has no business being in a detail vid however. it’s like going down an olympic ski jump naked. might sound interesting at first buuutt…
Lol
How come you’re not using a drying aid? I’ve been using a drying aid Every time I use rinseless wash with ceramic gloss
Nothing wrong with using one. With DIY Detail Rinseless Wash it’s optional.
Great video as always Ivan👍 I have one question when my car is covered in mud and traffic film (its raining all the time here in Poland) is it better to use Rinseless Wash or All Clean as a pre spray?
Start by trying DIY Detail Rinseless Wash, if it’s not strong enough then DIY Detail All Clean .
You’re doing the lords work Yvan , thank u
Thank you.
Thanks for the great vid. Useful for MN folks lol. Y’all should partner up with Autofiber to make a mitt on a stick legacy sponge wash pad - would make washing my F-150 easier when it’s cold out
not a bad idea!
So you and the bus crossing state lines.
Why am i getting Smokey and the Bandit vibes
What were you guys illegally transporting? 😅
Nothing illegal.
Your left front wheel has an dent. That is a huge safety hazard! Please fix 😢
Keep up with the good content!
Yes it was replaced after the video.
how is this rinseless when you are rinsing it?
Rinseless isn’t waterless. The term Rinseless Wash has been used in the industry for 30 years to describe a product that doesn’t require rinsing after the contact wash.
@@diydetailofficial but you still rinse the car before the contact wash. you did rinse the car. the industry needs a new term because it is a lie
I would just throw some rinseless into the bucket for the "pressure washer" then you dont need to go back around with the keg...
That’s an option.
no pressure double wipe. easy enough ! love this
Thank you.
I like seeing Yvan use a rinseless wash, but I like the fact that he uses the sponge on each panel, twice. In the winter I do the same thing. I am not sure why I do that. I feel like the car comes out cleaner.
Yvan, why are you washing each panel twice?
Oh, and to be that guy.... Yvan, you missed a spot. :P
Thanks for sharing this. I use the Hydroshot by Worx in the winter when I can. If it is really warm I will get out the garden hose so that I can rinse off the wheel wells, the undercarriage, and wash the car.
Washing twice is to make sure the panel is flushed of salt.
Very possible a spot was missed.
Is there DIY Detail ceramic gloss on the vehicle? Kind regards and thanks for the entertaining vid!
It has the DIY Detail stack of 8 and 3 year coating.
Rinseless wash is god sent especially during winter season
Agreed
Do you ever use degreaser for tar, asphalt etc or does claying take that away?
Always been doing my decon washes before polishing with tar remover, alkaline, iron remover, then schampo, clay and polish. Wondering if I can skip all the chemicals and just wash and clay with iron remover and then be ready for polish, saying time, product and energy?
Leave the tar removal ( DIY Detail Tree Sap Remover) until the end. The wash will remove a good portion of it, and so does DIY Detail Iron Remover . Only if needed after .
Is the diydetail Rinseless wash safe to use on ceramic coated cars i have a cquartz coating on my vehicle
Yes, very safe.
that was awesome. Thanks Ivan that was a truly dirty car
Thank you
Great vid! I do something similar but use a worx hydoshot. Takes me an hour through. Ha. Id like to see how u wash the big bus! 😂
Will do!
Is Hank replacing Nick?
Kidding aside, this convinced me to try rinseless wash.
lol
Yikes, I wouldn't even spray that car with a hose as it might taint my water system. lol
It was salty
I'm gonna miss this car. This is a better way in helping our eco system. Easier, quicker and, safe!
Thank you.
What if it's not ceramic coated like your veloster? Does it still work as well or is it a different process?
Works the same.
I like using two buckets for when the car is very dirty as 1 bucket gets dirty really fast.
That’s fine
Rip veloster
Thank you.
LET’S GET IT ON!!!
Thank you.
Next week Yvan will school use on the BUBBLE MACHINE Rinseless wash 😆 🤣 😂
Lol
@diydetail are you guys moving to the usa? I thought you lived in Canada?
I’m from Canada, DIY Detail is based in Omaha Nebraska.
Could you do a video on how you built the keg and list the parts you used? Thanks great videos thanks
ruclips.net/video/5mTSak_uPFg/видео.htmlsi=kB7XxY-3dPReI_y4
Bonjour Yvan, tu utilises régulièrement ce Keg. Je n'ai pas trouvé dans les commentaires ou la description d'où il vient. Pourrais-tu nous indiquer où on peu se procurer le Keg ainsi que tout les accessoires (tuyaux ect...)? J'habite au Québec. Merci
ruclips.net/video/5mTSak_uPFg/видео.htmlsi=kB7XxY-3dPReI_y4
Why is the pressure of that keg so low? I don’t see any psi at all
Not looking for pressure, only coverage.
I feel like having all this other stuff but no hose is a very unlikely scenario
For an appartement dweller it’s common
I bought one of those Ryobi power cleaners last year when my marinas well went dry. Had to clean the boat with out the hose and I was pretty impressed for what it is. I brought water from home and at least was able to clean the boat. Now you are giving me some ideas for more uses for the Ryobi
Excellent.
I don’t know anything about keg sprayers, but I’m interested. Any suggestions on a keg sprayer you would recommend? Thank you as always for your knowledge!
ruclips.net/video/5mTSak_uPFg/видео.htmlsi=kB7XxY-3dPReI_y4
@@diydetailofficial Thank you!
I love that pressure cleaner! I have the same one and I usually run rinseless through it and use it for my apartment details.
Great.
Couldn't you run it through an ik sprayer
@beijingbiden5931 Most definitely, but with the EZClean, you have a shower setting, a 15° tip and a turbo Nozzle along with 0.8 gpm, so you can use it to rinse off the wheels after cleaning them as well. It's totally not a necessity, but I've really enjoyed it for rinseless
Merci pour cette vidéo, très pratique cette façon de garder notre véhicule propre l’hiver ici au Québec . Je vais regarder pour le Ryobi, semble très pratique!! 🚗
Merci. Les autres compagnies de outils sans fil font des laveuse similaire.

Hello, im a mobile detailer and I’m really intrigued by your products but my account has been under verification for a week. It says 24-48hrs so I sent an email and tried to use the chat feature but no response .. my next resort is RUclips comment section .. heard nothing but good things about customer service but so far not so good
Unfortunately our IT team is having trouble with our provider, please be patient, they will get to you once the updates are done.
Thank you for replying .. I will use Jamie code and continue with my purchase
Thank you.
that cat was big also! where is this location, if I can ask?

Man, why is that sponge so expensive? Almost £30 here in the UK. No way am i paying that much just for a sponge.
Easy, because it’s by far the least expensive wash media on the market when you factor in cost per use. For many people a sponge will last for years. Other than that it’s safer, more efficient, and more effective.
@@diydetailofficial Well you talked me into buying the legacy sponge. I must say i felt violated paying so much for what is essentially two bits of sponge stuck together but it does work extremely well. I also bought the rinseless wash and ceramic gloss. I must say, im very impressed with the products. The rinseless is better than ONR and the ceramic gloss leaves a lovely radiant wet look on the paint. Ill be trying some of the other products in the future.
Hey Yvan! Is it possible to somehow get more pressure out of those battery operated pressure washers like the one you are using in this video? I read somewhere that you can connect them to a tap with a hose and get more pressure that way but then the battery will run out faster, I'm not sure if this is true. Would love some advice on this please.
I’ve never tried it
@@diydetailofficial Ah okay, thank you
