Darren, you always bring valuable and economical information to the detailing enthusiasts out here looking for the most effective way to clean a car and not have to spend a small fortune to do it. I am about your age and I can still remember when I was 16 years old detailing my car with Turtle Wax ZIP WAX wash, followed by a coat of Mequiars Cleaner Wax in the maroon can, using old towels from the house, and completing my interior cleaning with either Fantastik from under the sink or Simple Green. And finally Windex on the windows followed by Rain-X. It's what we had back in the day, but it got the job done! Granted, nothing like today with the literally THOUSANDS of products available, but again, it did get the job done! Oh, and yes, I sadly say I was a fan of Armor All on the tires too, but I did buff it down after drying to a more satin sheen. Again, it's mostly what we had back in the day and the car didn't look half bad after it was done either! Simple products but my car always got comments for looking great. I carried that regimen on when I joined the Sheriff's Department and got my own "take home" patrol vehicle. My wife would get so mad at me because I would spend hours on my days off polishing the heck out of that car (by hand) with that can of Mequiars! LOL. I then "upgraded' my game to a product called LIQUID GLASS which came in a pour out metal can with a red Corvette on it. That stuff was great! You got a good couple of months out of it and it was a great sealant of the day imparting some decent gloss after you hit the paint with a cleaner wax first and then used the Liquid Glass on top of that! I didn't start getting into more of what I called "enthusiast" type of detailing after I retired and had more time. Now it's almost a gosh darn obsession! No, it IS an obsession for me! I have all the stuff all the influencers of today push such as Koch Chemie, CarPro, Gyeon, Polishangel, Angelwax, and about 50 other brands at least! I do like the whole "Rinseless" revolution that's occurring at the moment. I am a BIG fan of that. As far as the interior, I always had decent success with a "LITTLE GREEN CLEAN MACHINE" from Bissell, even when they first came out about 25+ years ago! YEP, those little green's have been around that long. They have changed a little over the years and added heat and steam now, but they have been around for quite a while. I did a LOT of interiors with that Little Green machine! A lot of friends and family would ask me to do their vehicles and loved the results! Again, it was what we had back then before all these fancy extractors and steamers available now. I love all the new toys and products for sure, but I enjoy the fact you show detailing enthusiast's that it can all be done with minimal equipment and minimal chemicals that are available readily at the supermarket or in local retail establishments in your community. It's the process really, not the products! Love your channel buddy. I've been watching you for many years now!

I think this Darren guy really knows his stuff!
