I never stop learning from this channel! One of things that make it so good is that the recommended products and tools are down to earth products that are affordable and easy to get. The viewer is never made to feel that the tasks are too difficult or that the desired results are really only achievable by professionals using expensive high end products and tools. Thanks Josh for making videos for us ordinary guys!

Yeah he’s a good dude. I trust his insight and respect his tact. He’s set up a smart revenue stream and is not overbearing and obnoxious. Many channels are simply infomercials disguised as detailers.
Thank you for your mentorship Josh I was intrigued that you would choose air compressor over the other 2 options. But makes sense to me. 95% of the time fabric seats and carpets you can get away with just APC and towels and a vacuum. Heck even using foam can cleaners like Meguiar's carpet and upholstery cleaner or blue coral is enough especially when you're mobile your client will love the fact that they would have no wet seats, especially in the cold months.
I just got an air compressor, and I couldn't agree more. I use my steamer alot less now. I used to steam the vents and cracks in door panels now I use the brushes and air compressor. Another excellent tool is the scrub pads from auto fiber I believe. They really get into the texture of the plastics.
Comparison across the board. You sure have cost me some money since I started watching your channel. I am a detailing fool now. I am very grateful that I find you because your guidance is spot on. Now I'm headed off to buy this polisher with your discount code. Thank you sir!
I have a Cadillac with the leather seats, and I love the way the chemical guys leather conditioner smells. I love that clean leather smell.
IMJOSHV you are sooo genuine and so entertaining!!! Thank you for your mentorship!
Love that air compressor. I added a kobalt tank to it to more than double capacity and can be pulled off for portable. Really enjoy the quiet!
I love how simple you are. Thank you so much. I have no idea what I’m doing and soooo many videos are WAY to much to understand. So thank you!!
good video - never thought about edgeless microfiber towels, good tip - makes it worth including! +1 to all those who complimented your video.

Josh..I have to say that the Technicians Choice Ceramic Spray is the 💣. I cannot express how much this product blew me away. I used it in on the exterior of my truck . 2 weeks later when I sprayed the vehicle with water before washing I was blown away by the hydrophobic properties and slickness still. My new go too. I will try it on the interior next.

Are you using technicians choice instead of 303 then to protect?
Can you do a video using these products step by step? that would be awesome :)
+1 Josh on the TEC582...i always buy it by the gallon. Never knew it could be used for an interior UV protectant - I'll have to try that. It does work fantastic as a drying aid as well when diluted 50/50 with distilled water. Kudos for the great Vid and tips Brother 👍
Good ones! It’s all good man, a vacuum is so essential it’s assumed and doesn’t need to be mentioned
You are becoming my number one go2. I really appreciate your videos
Thank you for all your hard work making these videos ! I’ve learned so much and you are so ahonest in your reviews !
Be extremely careful with drill brushes, since they can easily damage carpets. When I first started using drill brushes on carpet, I found that it was ‘pulling’ the fibres and made the carpet fibres elongated and messy rather than nice and tight and neat. I now stick with just using a regular carpet brush on carpets rather than a drill brush.

I use a white one (softer) that works perfectly on all different types of carpets in cars, I still use a normal hand brush for getting out hair and crumbs stuck deep in the carpet fibers. You might have been using like a red colored or green colored stiffer brush.

I recently bought a Ryobi power brush tool which I find much better than using the drill. It runs slower and it's waterproof. The only con is the proprietary brush connection but (a) their brushes aren't that expensive and (2) if you really wanted you could easily manufacture an adapter if some sort
I actually have a compressor on my list. My shop vac has a blower option and a wet vac option but it is a pain for me to switch it during a job especially since I also have an extractor. I like this video because I have a hard time not taking so many items to a job because I'd rather be safe than sorry. My trailer is jam packed!
I love those super soft brushes for my stereo, my car has one of those giant touch displays, theres no buttons it's all touch sensors.
Wow those brushes! Sold sold for sure! As always another great clip! Stay well homie….I thank you for your content 🙏🏼

Great video! When you said edgeless edge you just meant without a hem, but we knew what you meant.
I have the Coral red interior in my 2007 328xi E92. I gotta try that technicians choice! I will say my interior still looks new and I just hit 250k miles!
Not sure if you have a video of cleaning the interior and applying the TC 582 ? If not, it would be great to see how you clean and apply the 582 protection.
Josh, Thank You for all the great content. As a 2022 Bronco owner I really appreciated the info you shared. I've been watching the channel all morning for tips on how to properly clean my Bronco. Continued success and Thank you again!!

I saw the air compressor and had to check this out.
Thankyou for your videos it’s really helping me to start up a detailing business 💪
Excellent video, makes me want to detail right away even though it’s -25 outside 😀great work, learned a lot ,thank you , roger
As usual a great video, you do an excellent job. How about a video on brushes, how often do you change or clean them per a single vehicle job. How do you clean them. Interior vs exterior.
Your great man love your videos keep the good content coming love the style. Would love to see videos from you on using the actual oroducts and items sort of how to videos just saying ide watch them.
Best UV protection is Aerospace 303, I've been using it on my boats, RV rooftops, and all my vehicles. No sheen, no greasy feeling, look it up. Put this stuff on your tires and they look new. Look it up and try it, you will not be disappointed
I agree compressed air is a must
Telsa's vegan leather is really nice upgraded vinyl that is why it reacts that way.
I’d go with compressed air before extractor. Being able to blow out junk is better than getting at the stuff that can’t be easily seen. Too many people think the value of a detailers time is low. To get to a lower price point, close is at good as it gets. Clean? 😁😁😁 yeah, it’s clean.
Are you using the Ridgid 4.5gal in your van? When the motor kicks on does it flow enough cfm for a Tornador to run pretty much continuously? What size hoses are you running with yours? In my shop I run a 30gal compressor with 3/8 hose....trying to buy everything to set up a van.
How does Super Clean compare to Simple Green, which is an EPA certified Safer Choice, low toxicity degreaser? It is as Lao available in gallon jugs and can be deputed to various strengths. I have also used the Sam’s Club bulk gallon jug degreaser for several years to clean equipment, etc. But it seems to be a little harsher than the Simple Green, and haven’t been comfortable using it on any interior cloth surfaces. Also, I did get the power drill brushes you recommended, and have been very pleased with them.
+1 on using a ceramic spray sealant on interior! I used to use meguires x-press spray wax to do the same thing
I really appreciate your candidate approach and real world examples!
Would you consider doing a video on diluting chemicals?
The million dollar question........the mix ratio for tech choice I like 10-1 for interior. I don't like to use it straight even exterior mixed to 5-1. Its a very thick formula. I hate to wasted by wiping most of it off. I use power lock plus for the detail and tech choice for maintenance. The car looks like it had a ceramic coat installed. Anybody has a different ratio? 👍👍
I don't have an air compressor, but it's going on my Christmas list!
I feel a steamer is more ideal. it still has the benefits as the air compressor. Maybe not as powerful but thats where the heated steam and compression loosens things up.
Ridgid vac went on sale today at my local home depot for 350 (cad). Went in and they offered me the display item for 150. No box but had everything
you and Detail Groove seem to be regular guys...good to watch. like two others but seem to be more business/money guys/higher end type guys
Thanks, Good stuff, Good informative Video Salute to You Sir.
Great job Josh
Wondering about using Super Clean for interiors, just don’t like the smell of it, prefer to use something like P&S Express Interior Cleaner, which covers multiple surfaces, including leather. I would like to get the TC product, no streaks and work in the sun is an A+. Thanks for the video!!!
Josh - So then would you want an extractor more than a steamer? Second, in lieu of an extractor, would you just carry the Rigid vacuum and do the extractor conversion do you’re carrying fewer machines/tools. New guy and really learning a lot from your channel. Thank you!
Stand with you 110% an extractor is great to have, but the air compressor? With the tornado attachment? Its a must
Dude, I've never seen any of your videos I didn't like. I can see that you actually study before you make a video. Also, I am a full time detailer at a large automotive group in St. Louis Mo. We use that ceramic spray and I like Technicians Choice products. Well the company trained us to use it on the exterior surface. Well, i noticed how effective it is on interior surfaces as well. I've be criticized for using it on interior surfaces. With your permission, I will show this video to other employees and maybe management. Thanks again for this video and your knowlege. Oh yea, I use super clean for personal details. Have a blessed day
Hi very informative videos that you have been doing ... I have learned a lot of new things to help me out with cleaning cars etc .. I was wondering what colour combination do you run for the microfibers eg red interior etc if you want to share that knowledge thank you
What dilution do you use for technicians choice for interiors?
Great list there! I have all of them as well.
Hello Josh, your videos are extremely helpful really appreciate the amount of details you put into showing the actual products your are using. Would you be able to recommend some substitutions for superclean and ceramic detail spray please?

Trade that drill out for the 20v DeWalt Atomic version. Much smaller. Actually 12v DeWalt would be fine, way way lighter and smaller. Plenty of power.
A good item to have is a ionizers, the kind they use to take the smell out of a house after a fire, they run about 100 bucks on amazon will make the car regain that new car smell, but to remove the smell of someone that smokes with the windows closed while running the HVAC, you might need to run it overnight, with the car's fan jumpered to run off an external power supply, or MacGyver duct tape & cardboard & using your own fan to push air thru the car's HVAC system, you'll want to put a fan in the car anyway to move those tiny ions around a bit faster, I always put a full sized window box fan in the car so it can spin slower, but move a lot more air, it does make it work a hell of a lot faster. And you do not need to run the ionizer non-stop over night, I use IFTTT to control the google smart switch I have the ionizer plugged into to turn on & off a few times during its run. Also I do not want to breathe it, so I turn it on and off from outside of the car, & will take a few hours for the ions to be used up, or leave with the windows down. It will also kill mold, mildew, & any bugs (fleas), as if you left your windows down overnight and 20 stray cats make it their home overnight.
Yo Josh!! Can you make a video on how to properly ceramic treat a car with your top ceramic detail spray suggestions? With a wet vehicle or dry vehicle etc . . I’m a bit confused on when it’s best to apply. I know you like ceramic detail spray but I wanted to see if there was like a top five for you. Thanks!
2 Questions: Do you toss the used Microfiber towels away after use or wash them? Can you recommend a good soap for Bug removal? My Sprinter has bug splatter from a weeks worth of traveling?
How do you clean between the center console & seats short of removing the seat?
Do you dilute the the technicians choice? What is the dilution ratio? Thanks.

It's probably because he wants commission and he did mention them before on other video. I recommend starting with a Dupay steamer, a drill brush and a vaccumm. I use air compressor just 5-10% of the time. The extractor is unnecessary is you ve got a nice shop vac
any advice on chems for water spots on fabric seats?
