- Hey, what's up guys,
welcome back to the Chemical Guys Detail Garage,
now it's part two on our Raptor series
we going to tackle the body,
it's filthy, neglected, dull,
this truck is actually black, but it looks white,
so we're going to restore it today
using our foam cannon and Citrus Wash & Gloss,
let's get started.
So today we have this Raptor, it's a Baja edition Shelby,
and we need to clean it up because look how dirty it is,
it's filthy, it's dirty and it's neglected.
So today will be tuning to our foam cannon
and our Citrus Wash & Gloss,
so Citrus Wash & Gloss is a hyper concentrated formula,
that going to knock our grime, dirt, debris
that is sitting on this Raptor and restore it shine.
You guys look closely Citrus Wash & Gloss actually spits,
that is just because of how concrete it is.
So whenever using it, make sure to shake it up,
and whenever you get this nice neon look,
you are ready to go and you're ready to get foaming.
or you could use in a bucket and a foam blaster
in this occasion I'm using a TORQ foam cannon.
So under this, I already have my dirt traps,
so before anything, let me start off
by prepping my TORQ foam cannon.
So just twist off the nozzle, put the head down
and then we all would recommend filling up the water
to the 900 mark
and then add soap until it gets to the 1000 mark.
So open up the Citrus Wash & Gloss,
pour it in there.
And the reason why I went with Citrus Wash & Gloss
is because I want to strip everything
that is sitting on the surface,
so whenever you use two ounces or three ounces
in a foam cannon, in a bucket or a foam blaster
you're going to strip off everything
that sit on your surface vehicles
such as glazes, sealants, and waxes.
We are going to be doing a full restoration
on this Ford Raptor because we need to restore it,
it's a beautiful truck to be neglected.
So now that I just apply Citrus Wash & Gloss
to my foam canon, I did not over twist it
as soon as it gets tight, that's it,
because TORQ does supply this, plastic seal,
plastic on plastic does not strip and it does not break.
So just stir it, do not shake it.
So now my foam cannon set up,
now it's time to set up my two bucket method.
The reason why I'm going with two bucket method today
is because one,
I want to prevent any scratches and swirls on this truck,
and two, I want to have a rinse bucket and a soapy bucket.
So right here, I have my dirt traps,
if you're not familiar with a dirt trap is,
a dirt trap filters while you wash.
While you're washing you come right here
you scrub your wash washing at the bottom,
look it already have some soap on it.
You scrub your washing out the bottom
and these micro braces are going to cause these cones
to suck down all the dirt, grime, debris
and don't let it rise back up while you're washing.
So I have two different colors, a red one
and a green one,
just like that I know which of our rinse bucket
and which is my wash bucket.
Red means stop green means go.
But insert them at an angle to avoid
air bubbles at the bottom and it caused a permanent seal.
And just like that you entered them
and you're ready to wash.
The wash mitt today I'll be using
is going to be the Chenille Wash Mitt,
the Chenille Wash Mitt is soft, it's plus,
it's going to encapsulate all dirt, grime, debris
that is sitting on the Raptor,
it's going to get them trapped into this noodles,
and whenever I come back to rinse down my wash mitt,
it's going to remove everything that the wash mitt has,
to like that I achieve a scratch free wash.
So on this Raptor their seen so dirty,
so filthy, so neglected,
I'm going to start rinsing it off,
then I'ma foam it up, then I'ma rerinse it,
and then I'll start foaming again,
and then I'll start scrubbing,
like this I achieve a scratch free wall.
Please guys come close.
This dirt, grime, debris is caked on here,
so just imagine if I don't do that,
foaming, rinsing, foaming, all this dirt grounded,
every when I come and start wiping my wash mint,
potential can scratch.
So I'm taking another safer way
especially cause it's a darkly car
and darkly car show everything,
we want to make sure we remove everything safely
and easily as possible, so this is why we're
going to do two foaming and two rinsing.
So now let's head over to our buckets,
I have Citrus Wash & Gloss
and I'm going to add one ounce into my wash bucket.
I'll let that dwell in there,
I'll start off by rinsing it off,
I'll foam it, I'll rerinse it,
and I'll show you guys how to scrub it down,
let's get started.
So I want you guys to come close and check this out.
So I just finished doing the first rinse
and this paint has no type of protection on it,
the water just sticks, and we don't want that,
whenever you have protection, the water beads off
and it's way easier to wipe,
but come close,
yes, you can come all around the entire vehicle
it's sticking on the glass,
it's sticking on the paint,
it's sticking on the plastics,
so today this is why we're going to be restoring it
because this paint is neglected,
you guys might have say, it looks good
because it's wet right now and it's shiny,
but we don't want that,
you want more beading than sticking,
all around the entire truck is just stinking.
This is why we need to foam it up twice
to make sure we get all dirt, grime and debris
because it's embedding itself into the paint
that can potentially scratch it or even damage it
just forever.
So now it's time to form it up with Citrus Wash & Gloss,
enjoy this montage.
So I just finished rinsing, foaming, rinsing
and reforming the Raptor.
So now it's time to scrub it down
using our Chenille Wash Mitt.
Unfortunately already got it wet when I activated the suds,
so I'll come into my soapy bucket,
I'll get a lot of suds
and I go to the highest point of the vehicle,
and this occasion is going to be the windshield
I'm not that tall,
I'll get the top of the roof
but you always want to go and linear motion,
whenever you're scrubbing down the paint,
like this you avoid scratches and swirls
and you constantly keep inspecting your wash mitt
just in case if you see a brown, black
from all the dirt and grime
if you do so constantly going back to your rinse bucket
but after two passes, I like to go to another section.
So for example, already got that side
foam is running down over here
so I could get the fender now.
We always recommend working top to bottom
like this you avoid working double.
This paint does have bee poop bee pollen.
there's some sap on it that does not come off
with just a single wash,
this is why we recommend using a wash mitt
a very soft wash mitt to avoid scratches and swirls as well.
So once you give it a couple pass
you scrub it at the bottom of the dirt trap,
then you go, I'll tell your dirt trap and your bucket
and you just wring it out.
And then you come back to your soapy bucket
and you follow this process around the whole entire vehicle,
so make sure to stay tuned,
see you guys can see the end result
of this truck shining up, lets get started.
So we just finished washing the Raptor,
now it's time to dry it using our Woolly Mammoth.
If you're not familiar with our Woolly Mammoth,
it's super soft, super plus, and it's huge,
and it holds up to one gallon of water,
but this paint right here has water that is dragging on it
so this is why I'll be using after wash,
it's a drying agent,
and this is for anyone that has hard water, well water
or it leaves a lot of water spots,
if you have that type of water
I recommend picking up after wash,
all you do is spray and it has carnauba in it,
and it's going to help you shine and dry all in one step.
So you just spray it
you get your Woolly Mammoth or whatever towel you're using,
in this occasion I'm using the Woolly Mammoth and a wipe.
But you guys can see that the paint is causing drag,
that is because the paint is neglected,
you see how it evaporates after.
So this is why in our next video
we will be protecting the paint,
we're going to be claying it,
we're going to be polishing it,
and we'll be ceramic coating it
to bring it back to its glory
and allow hyperactive water beating
to be living on this paint because the more dragging
the more headache it is for the user to dry.
So look, if I sprayed on here
it's going to help me dry, but it's still going to drag.
So this is why this paint needs protection
because water is still dragging.
So how can we prevent this from happening?
We have to clay it, after I want it to polish it out,
but we need to clay before hand
because the paint has contamination.
Look, you guys hear that, it's rough,
that is because it has contamination
from maybe sitting under a tree from not being driven
but I heard of the driver loves to take this off-road
and you can tell by the knobby tires they're wearing off.
