- Hey, what's up guys, and welcome back
to a brand new episode of Chemical Guys Detail Garage.
Today in the shop, we've got this massive truck behind me,
which calls for a massive wash.
So today we're going to be showing you guys
our tips and tricks on how to clean up your truck.
All right, guys, so, first thing's first,
it wouldn't be a truck wash
if we didn't have a dedicated truck soap.
Now, today we're going to be using
our Tough Mudder Truck Wash.
Yes, this soap, it's awesome for trucks.
You go off-roading, if you have ATVs,
UTVs, any TVs, you know, you name it,
this stuff is going to do great for cleaning up
that heavy grime, that heavy mud,
and it also lays down a sealant which helps prevent
the buildup of mud in the future.
So we're definitely going to use some of this today.
We do have our two bucket method right here,
with our two dirt traps and our two buckets.
I'm going to dunk these in, get those set up.
And we're also going to be using our TORQ Foam Blaster.
Now we're using the Foam Blaster because we want
to get a nice, thick, rich layer of suds
going on on the truck.
As you can imagine, this is a big truck,
we don't want to be going back and forth with our buckets,
so we want to make sure to give it a nice coat of soap
so that everything gets nice and lubricated,
and we get that nice cleaning action going on.
And lastly, with all these awesome accessories
and chemicals that we have going on,
what better way to clean our truck
than by using our Big MoFo?
Now this right here, you see it right there.
Plain and simple, it's a Big MoFo!
This right here, it's an ultra plush,
soft chenille microfiber wash mitt that's going to do
an excellent job at covering a large surface,
knocking off all that dirt, all that grime,
all that mud, all that stuff that's on your truck.
Knocks it off super easily and super convenient,
because you have a nice big wash mitt to work with.
So I'm going to set that down.
First thing's first, we're going to have
to rinse off the truck.
So we're going to go in and give it
a light rinse with our Foam Blaster nozzle.
If you guys don't know, but the Foam Blaster
also comes with this nozzle here.
That's what connects to your garden hose.
This hooks up directly to your Foam Blaster itself.
But you can also take it off and use it as a washer nozzle
when you want to go to rinse off your car.
So it works for both.
You can use it to rinse your car, rinse your grass,
whatever you want to do with it.
It works out amazing for all those things.
So we're going to give this truck a quick light rinse,
make sure that we knock off
a lot of that loose dirt and debris,
and then come back when we're ready to foam.
All right, guys, so now that the car's rinsed,
now it's time to set up our buckets.
So I already put our dirt trips in our buckets,
but I forgot to put soap.
So I'm going to grab our Tough Mudder wash,
and I'm going to dedicate my bucket
that has the black dirt trap as my soap bucket,
and the bucket that has the blue dirt trap
as my rinse bucket.
So I'm going to put about an ounce of soap in here.
One good squirt, that's all I need.
And then I'm going to set up my Foam Blaster.
Now my Foam Blaster, I already prefilled it with some water.
So now I'm just going to put some
Tough Mudder soap in there.
Now with the Foam Blaster like this,
you can apply anywhere from one to two ounces.
I'm just going to apply the two ounces
just so that I get that nice and deep clean.
So two ounces, you can measure in a measuring cup.
If not, then you want to eyeball it.
It's pretty much equivalent to about two good squirts.
One, two, we're good to go.
So I set that down, get my Foam Blaster nozzle
on here, set that up.
Now, once you put on your nozzle,
you want to make sure to stir it.
You don't want to shake it,
you want to make sure that the soap mixes in with the water.
You don't want it to foam up within the bottle,
because then you're going to be shooting up foam,
and you don't really get that thick layer of suds.
You get more of kind of like, a fluffy kind of foam.
So this way you get a thicker soap,
and you get better suds and better lubrication.
So once that's nice and shaken up,
now we can get ready.
Before I get ready to foam the vehicle,
I'm actually going to activate my suds
that I put into my soap bucket.
So I'm just going to grab my nozzle here,
I'm going to stick it in there,
and just activate the suds
just by using the pressure of the nozzle.
And just like that, you activate your suds,
so that you get the best use out of your soap,
and you get the best lubrication properties.
So now that that's set, I'll grab my Big MoFo,
stick that in there.
That's a big sucker right there, so it's going to soak up
tons of cleaning suds, tons of lubrication.
So I kind of let that lather in there.
Just kind of let it marinate
whilst I'm foaming the vehicle.
So now that we have that set,
and I'm going to grab my Foam Blaster, plug that in.
All you have to do is pull back on your nozzle here,
close to push that in, lock it into place,
and you're ready to start foaming.
It's that easy.
No pressure washer necessary, just the garden hose,
and you got yourself some nice thick suds.
So I'm going to go to set this to my power dial,
I like to put it on five,
because that creates the maximum amount of foam.
If you want a less, more intense foam,
if you want to kind of preserve this bottle,
and make it last about, you know, two or three cars,
you can play around with the settings.
You can put one, two, that's going to give you like,
a very light amount of suds.
So if you have a lightly dirty car,
that may be something you want to look into.
But we want the thickest suds,
so we're going to throw her on power setting five,
and we're going to get these subs going on, so stay tuned.
All right, guys,
so now that we've finished foaming the car,
I can detach my Foam Blaster here and set down my nozzle.
Actually, I'm actually going to activate the suds again.
Just because I want to make sure that when I use
my wash mitt on there, that I have the best lubrication.
So you'll see right now, I'll grab my Big MoFo wash mitt.
And to show you guys why this wash mitt's so awesome,
so get a nice thick layer of suds, clean suds on there.
Now we can actually wipe down the truck.
I'm going to show you why the Big MoFo wash mitt's so cool.
Because it's so huge that I can cover a large surface area.
As you guys can see, I'll do half of almost,
almost half of a hood and just like,
two passes the fender.
The fender I can pretty much knock out in one pass.
Along with the rest of the hood.
And this wash mitt is just so awesome,
because like I mentioned, it's just so massive,
that you can cover the majority of your truck.
Especially if you have a truck this big, you know,
this is definitely going to help you out with cleaning it,
because you're not going to have to do so many wipes,
as opposed to with a smaller wash mitt.
So this is going to definitely help you out.
Save yourself a lot of time, you know,
and it's so huge that you can get more surface area done
before coming back to your rinse bucket.
So I'm going to continue with the front end here,
as you guys can see this wash mitt's so massive
that I can actually do the whole hood,
my whole front end, and a lot more just by,
you know, doing the single little pass.
So now I've done this section,
I'm going to come back to my rinse bucket here.
Now my rinse bucket, I'm going to
and dunk my wash mitt in there because remember,
I want to go and knock off a lot of this dirt and grime.
And also do the other side as well,
So that you knock off any kind of loose debris
and dirt that gets stuck onto your wash mitt.
Once you do that, take it out, wring it out,
and then come back to your soap bucket
to grab some more clean suds.
So, now I'm done with that,
I'm just going to take it out,
wring out any excess water,
because I mean, this thing is massive.
You know, they don't call this thing
the Big MoFo for no reason.
So once you do that,
you come back to your truck, finish the remaining panels.
I'm going to finish up the top,
just because I'm going to have to grab a ladder
and get up there.
But as you guys can see, this is definitely
going to help me out with that process,
because I'm going to pretty much be able to cover
the entire roof with just two strokes.
So that's one of the very many reasons why having
a Big MoFo wash mitt on your side
while washing your truck is going to be a huge benefit.
So I'm going to finish washing up the rest of the truck,
and I'll be back with you guys
once we're ready to drive the truck.
All right, guys, and what better way to wrap up
this big truck detail with a big drying towel,
like the Woolly Mammoth.
So this towel is great because it's massive,
it's plush, it's super soft, and it's silk edge,
which means that it's going to go to and dry up
this whole truck no problem.
With it, I'm going to be using our After Wash drying aid.
Now, if you guys haven't heard about After Wash,
After Wash it a huge life saver
when drying huge trucks like this,
because it's going to definitely help you out
with breaking down the tension of the water
that's on the surface.
So if you guys want to check this out,
you guys come on this side.
If you guys check out the hood right here,
you have all your water spots that are on there.
When you use After Wash on that,
it's going to break down the water tension.
So when I spray directly to check out how
the water reacts when I spray it,
it breaks it down
so that you have a lot more easier time
to scoop it up
with the micro drying towel.
So now that I've done a little section,
I'm going to grab my Woolly Mammoth towel here
and I'm simply going to drape it on there, pull right down.
Check that out guys, and admire the nice streak-free dry.
After Wash is also manufactured with gloss enhancers,
so not only do you get that nice look/feel
when you're drying your car,
but you get a nice high gloss finish.
So you can go in and replicate this throughout the truck.
Like I mentioned, it is going to make your life
a lot easier when it comes to drying it,
because it's going to make it so that you can easily
dry with just one pass of your towel.
So we're going to continue with drying the truck,
and we'll show you guys the final results.
And there you guys have it,
a nice and squeaky clean truck.
It looks amazing.
And we had an awesome experience washing it
using the Big MoFo wash mitt,
our Woolly Mammoth drying towel,
and a bunch of other cool stuff.
