- What's up chemical guys and girls?
It's Jason and welcome back to the Chemical Guys
Newbie home edition.
I've got a pal that likes to work at the office with me.
He does his own cleaning, but he doesn't clean up
after the chair that he's on
and it tends to have a lot of cat hair.
Right, buddy?
Today, we're gonna learn how to use the pet hair brush.

As you can tell by my ever growing luscious, facial hair,
it is currently day, who the heck knows anymore
of this situation and I'm at home.
And I'm looking for things to detail
'cause I'm still a noob, I don't really know much.
I don't have access to Henry or Nick or Joey today.
But that doesn't mean we can't figure stuff out on our own.
So today I'm gonna learn how to use the pet hair brush
without the help of anyone else.
Wish me luck, let's dive into it.
Now one of the greatest things about this brush,
is that it is one solid piece of rubber.
I'm sure any of you guys who have pets
have used those disposable rollers,
where it like, it's got the sticky sheets
and you roll it on yourself.
Those work fine, but you know what?
You gotta constantly purchase those things.
You're creating waste by ripping one, two, four, five,
17,000 sheets off every time you gotta clean up a mess.
This thing is reusable.
So that's one plus to it.
As you're also saving the planet.
This will pull hair off your jeans,
off your clothes, off your couch.
And you'll spend less time cleaning up after your pets.
We love our furry friends, and you know what,
I got a cat tower because,
I'll tell you what, I used to make fun of people
who had cat towers before I had cats.
And then I realized that the whole point of that is
so that they scratch that up and not your furniture.
It also gives them a place to hide
and kind of have their own space
and they really become sweet animals after that.
They don't go nuts and start clawing things.
The only reason they claw stuff,
is because they need that tower.
(upbeat music)
Okay, so one thing I noticed about this brush
is that it's one solid piece of rubber,
which is really nice.
It's also got these really soft rubber bristles here,
and a little fin over on the side here to kind of scrape.
This won't damage any of your stuff
because it's all made of rubber.
Now, when I first got this brush,
I thought I broke it, because it's also bendable.
You can actually contour it to any shape you need.
So if this is in your car or some other hard-to-reach area,
you can reach in and get to those hard-to-reach spots.
So I'm gonna move my pal, Dexter, over here.
We're gonna clean up this mess you made, my friend.
I'm going to create a hard masking tape line.
And I'm gonna take this brush
and basically just kind of drag it over the side here.
You can already see all of the hair kind of coming along
to the side here.
So we're just gonna keep going.
It's instantly making this chair a million times better.
It's kind of ridiculous how much hair
is on the side of this.
Now, when you have all this hair that's out here,
it looks like I'm gonna probably use this fin part
to kind of gather all that hair up once I've gotten it.
And that allows me to pick it up.
Look at that, that's ridiculous.
These cats man, I love them but they are messy.
(upbeat music)
That our hard-line.
Look at that.
You know, we need the tape.
You can see the side on the left has so much hair
and the side on the right is all clean
and the same thing goes for this space right here.
I'm gonna remove this tape
so we can really see that hard-line.
I mean, look at this 50-50, it's ridiculous.
Cat hair on the left, no cat hair on the right.
This works for any type of upholstery, your car,
I mean, anywhere there's cat hair.
I'm gonna finish cleaning this up,
so we have a nice, clean space to sit.
Oh my gosh, look at that.
And we'll move on to the cat tower
and see how it works on that.
Now this is definitely a favorite place for the cats to sit.
They like to lay out here, look out the window
and kind of have their little cave and stuff like that.
It prevents them from ripping up your furniture.
Instead, they use this.
But look at all the cat hair, it's crazy.
Same thing, I'm just gonna take this brush
and just kind of brush along the side, one direction.
Kind of get all this cat hair.
Look at all this stuff.
Oh my gosh, look at all the hair that just comes right off.
And you use a little blade here at the end
to kind of push all that off the edge here.
I'll clean it up with the vacuum later.
And basically, in only a few seconds,
this entire tree is now clean.
Clean on that side, filthy on that side.
That's all it takes.
This thing's amazing. (upbeat music)
(cat meows)
Alright guys, so we saw how easy it was
to get that pet here off of your furniture.
And I guess the cat tower is kind of like your couch
or your furniture.
Same difference, it works the same on all of it.
So if you have pets, definitely pick up this brush,
you're gonna love it.
I love it.
I'm gonna use it all the time now.
I'm kind of in the cleaning mode
now that I've cleaned this pet hair off my stuff.
So one other thing that I wanna do while I'm in the house,
I used to love shoes.
I kept these things meticulous.
And you can see it's already pretty dirty on the soles
and everywhere, on the front.
It's kinda bad.
I remember one time in the Detail Garage,
Henry used the Lightning Fast on an interior of a car.
In the car there was a pair of shoes
and he used it on the shoes.
Well, I've got a small Chemical Guys
collection building right here.
I've got the sanitizers and some good air fresheners
and also a couple of the cleaning products.
And one of the things I do have is actually Lightning Fast.
- Lightning Fast is a stain extractor
that pretty much removes any kind of stains
from your carpets nice and fast.
Lightning fast.
- So what I'm gonna do is try to use lightning fast
and a microfiber towel and grab the nifty brush
and see if I can clean these shoes off.
Alright guys.
So if you're like me,
you really like to know how you're doing.
So I'm just gonna mask off a little tape here,
so I can give myself a little hard 50-50 line here
to see the difference of what I'm scrubbing up over here.
I think what I'm supposed to do is take this Lightning Fast,
and basically spray directly on the shoe itself, right?
So I'm gonna spray a little bit right here, and right here.
And then I'm gonna put this nifty brush right here.
I'm gonna spray a little bit on the nifty brush,
and then just kinda go to town on this thing.
Let it soak in a bit and kind of agitate it.
I'm just going back and forth,
up and down a little bit.
And on this fabric as well.
Now, you probably should put something inside here,
like a sock or something.
But I'm just gonna use my fingers for right now.
And I do believe that when Henry showed this to me,
he also had a technique where he wrapped it inside
of a microfiber towel.
He basically put this here, put the nifty brush inside,
wrapped it and then use the brush with the towel
to basically agitate the fabric.
And that kind-of is for more sensitive areas
where you're using the microfiber towel,
but also the cleaning power of the brush at the same time,
you're getting that extra force.
There we go.
And if we remove the tape here,
we can see pretty clear line of where where I was scrubbing,
versus where I wasn't.
This is dark.
So what I'm gonna do is time lapse the rest of the shoe
and see how clean we can get it.
(upbeat music)
All right.
I don't know about you,
but I can see a very clear difference here.
In terms of how clean this thing is,
compared to where it was before.
It's kind of ridiculous.
I mean the whole thing is clean.
It's just a little wet.
I'll probably leave it to dry.
And the brush we can see what this was doing.
This, if I take this out, is all the grime
that was on that shoe.
Nasty.
(chuckles)
But it works.
Cool.
So I guess we can use Lightning Fast on our shoes too.
Alright guys, there you have it.
So we did some cleaning at home,
using our Chemical Guys products.
