That is an awesome looking Landy. We need to see more of it!!!

So lovely to Finally see some Defender stuff. Keep them Coming

Before drying off, grab the garden blower (or some shop vacs you can move the hose to the other end and it blows warm air) to get a large amount of water out of the mirrors, door jams, handles, grill, headlights. It really makes half the work and stops runs later once you’ve grabbed that microfibre drying towel and gone over the car to dry it. I use a flash version for detailing but a garden blower or shop vac is going to do a nice enough job all things considered.

A blower is good advice. A short drive can also do the same, as long as it's not dusty! The drive also clears water from brakes, bellhousing, bellows etc.

@@stco2426 downside there is that it also dries the rest the car and that will leave water spotting and lead to etching. After a short drive, water will continue to drip out of headlight, grill, around handles messing up the work and time spent cleaning. Just blow out the places a microfibre drying towel can’t get into. Then wipe down with a thick microfibre drying towel while moisture is still on the car.

It doesn’t. I’ve done it for years and years. Theres still loads of water on the car, just not trapped in all the crevices. There are actual professional blowers for cars that detailers use, they are heated. I’m just suggesting a hack using a common household item. BigBoi is one brand of detailers blower. (That’s what she said)

That is one hell of a neat Defender. Good to see one on here

My paint is done by the woods. Lots of pinstriping. I've done it to a two day old Ram with 38 miles on it. Gotta break em in how you're going to use it.

damn right...

You completely ignored 1 massive thing, the engine bay, when I was a detailer, my 5 tips is, 1. if it's bad, fork out the cash for a professional, we have the chemicals and acids and disposal to do it right, 2. cover the computer. 3. use a range of brushes to get into the nooks and crannies, 4. when using high pressure be extremely careful and don't get too close, especially around wiring/connectors spark plugs, let the detergent do most the work, 5. Avoid sun like the plague.

If youre worried about scratches in your paint, dont take it bush.

The odd scratch when going bush is different to rubbing the whole rig down with, effectively, sand paper, removing microns of paint each wash. This starts paint peel and clear coat lifting off.

Awesome video as always Shaun.

Nice tips on how to give your 4WD a nice clean bath without scrapping the paint

A bit advertorial but great content. Products and techniques have come a long way since the 'sponge and two bucket method'. Foams that stay foamy really help soften all sorts of road and off-road muck. Pressure washing is ok but keep the lance away from sensitive bits. As said here, low pressure high volume not the other way round. These wheeled under cleaners are also great, including where roads are salted. There's loads to really like here and I've not seen the installed chassis hoses. Very trick. Keeping a vehicle clean when used only on highways is hard. 4WDs needs even more care and it's often more difficult to do. Thanks!!

It might just be a car washing video… but I’m always up for learning about new products that keep my life simple, and my car looking great. Cheers

I think once I get another 4wd I'll have to try this stuff. Great video guys thanks. Have a ripper fellas!

I'm not convinced unless these instructions are applied to Sooty and that Hilux that did the 24 Hour 4WD the other week.

@@4WD247 I seem to remember you did a wash video with one of your cars on 4 axle stands Shaun and you were wearing goggles. It's important to remove salt and mud and wash and try to dry any vehicle. 4WDs aren't special when it comes to better coatings and they often lead a (very) hard life. Bet there's some inaccessible Tassie mud stuck from recent fun!

Big beauty Land Rover!

Well there you go Noodle Mit I'll be keeping an eye out for a couple of those next time I'm at the shops.

I clean mud off my car with a wire wheel on a grinder and puddle water. It’s a 4wd, I park it in hedges and go tree dodging for fun. We aren’t worried about scratches

Love these products! Great advice! No more circular motions for me! 😂🤗

Thanks Guys awesome to see a cleaning product work. Just had my Gladiator in the snowys and was full of bog holes that couldnt be avoided 7 days later and still mud coming off. Just jumped on your websiye Justin and must be popular a lot of care packs sold out is there a wait and how long.

Hey guys I've done detailing since I was 7 but I was taught you rinse the car down first to get rid of excess dirt etc is that still so or is the foam that strong that it does a 2 in 1 job keen to learn

That chassis rinsing system is great idea if you live near the beach ⛱️

My god that chassis is mint! I wish my defender was that sparkly I got some work to do!!!

Gotta say I used the chassis shield about 4 months ago and it’s actually amazing! Even now the mud barely sticks underneath

Here in my Village, we wipe the vehicle down with a chamois cloth to remove all the water spots after washing it

haha. after each mud trip, i do a deep fresh water crossing several times forward and reverse to wash under the car. there are enough pinstripes all over that washing mud off with a sponge is no issue too, though of corse i do wash it off before the scrubbing starts. when i service the car, i remove underbody protection and clear all mud, sand and debris out too just as an added part to the maintainance. it would be great to have a beutifully immaculate 4wd but i just go bush and it never lasts. i'll worry about how it looks when i sell it. get it polished or even resprayed. 🤷😅

I used to polish the D1 2 times a year with Autoglym Super Resin Polish, dirt would just fall off with a hose pipe. for the chassis, park in a river for about 10 mins! :-D I suspect as the old D1 has been sat up for a while now that it might need a good flush out, but better wait until the Robin's have fledged as almost guaranteed there is one nesting in there somewhere! The 110's new galv chassis has been done with Buzzweld's products and they are awesome. It's still got to have it's first trip, but honestly, you can't beat a 300tdi 110 for being the most awesome vehicle off road. Get Justin's on the show more, you will get a higher class of viewer! I might even crack open the Moet! 😛

gotta love it when the lazy way is also the correct way. Pressure washer ftw

When I served in the Air Force, we used to have exercises where we’d have to prep 5-ton military trucks for airlift. They would refuse to accept a truck with ANY DIRT, including the hard to see places under the chassis and wheel wells. They called it a “frustrated chalk” whenever they’d refuse a vehicle, and boy that name accurate!

Pressure washer pushing it further lol😅

Use these simple tricks!: Don't wash the inside of the snorkel with a high-pressure hose! Don't use diesel to clear the stains from your carpet. Be sure to use a toothbrush to clean the dirt out of your tyre treads. Keep your mouth closed! You can't suck the chrome off a lowball, no matter what they tell you!

Be good if you could do a separate video for the engine bay

I have a question - when you say "pressure wash it off" I assume that is not using the high pressure powered cleaners, and instead mean a normal tap water pressure with a nozzle? Surely the high pressure cleaners will cause scratching?

goddamn that is a beautiful-looking rig I can just stare at it that shot at 2:08 (close-up of the headlights) is so cool looking ooh, ahh

I use snow foam, rinse and then Maguire's Gold Class and 2 buckets, one to wash and the other to rinse the mitt using a grit guard. Finally dry using a Maguire's towel. Do need to get a clay bar and wax done.

My trucks exterior is entirely bedlined. I wash it with the same push broom I use to sweep the shop 😂
