[00:08] you just occasionally enjoy the odd bit of
[00:12] this video is finished you're going to have all
[00:19] coming up in today's jam-packed episode i share
[00:25] car and i give away some of the biggest
[00:29] the job done in the quickest time possible
[00:34] so the first thing you got to do is get the car
[00:39] boot now normally i like to start off by doing
[00:43] because then at least if it does rain i can get
[00:48] because there's nothing worse you get everything
[00:53] and then everything gets soaking wet so this way
[00:58] takes a few minutes to get everything out and make
[01:02] nasty surprises are lurking under those seats okay
[01:09] because i've put the seats forward these have been
[01:14] around the car if i'm going to do the boot first
[01:20] and then i'm ready to move on to the second
[01:24] start off with the boot number one number two
[01:28] number three at the very end we're going to finish
[01:32] the best way to break down your cleaning break
[01:37] make your life so much easier so remember i told
[01:43] reason for that and i know you can't do it with
[01:47] make our life a heck of a lot easier because now
[01:52] so first of all you've got to soak your brush not
[01:57] is put too much product on the roof lining and you
[02:04] brushing into it into a circular motion now you
[02:09] but that is not a problem what that foam's going
[02:14] you've only got to do it for about sort of
[02:20] towel now i like to use lighter tail so i've got
[02:25] if you go for a dark one you can't always
[02:29] this so what you're going to find is when
[02:36] i can see that on this i've got a few little
[02:41] back up on the roof because it's going to make
[02:45] over and job done absolutely perfect with the
[02:55] boot so i work top down and i start off by giving
[03:00] afford detailing brushes then you can always
[03:05] and while i'm on the subject of paint brushes
[03:09] i really do urge you go check it out after this
[03:14] description below because honestly i feel that
[03:19] videos on a channel it's great fun it's full of
[03:25] if you're car cleaning on a budget when it comes
[03:30] and the one i'm using today is yum interior and
[03:34] much safe on everything it touches so i started
[03:40] i agitated it with the soft brushes and it works
[03:45] nice brushes i then kept my 30p brushes which are
[03:50] case there's some nasty gunk the boot mat is very
[03:56] free brush tools that come with every single
[04:01] who wants to save a little bit of extra
[04:04] in the fibers in the carpets and while we're on
[04:10] do you normally do first do you start off on the
[04:16] for the boot door plastics make sure you spray the
[04:21] because you don't want to get any chemicals
[04:24] that is not pleasant it's time to get cracking on
[04:30] when they're folded down it really can speed up
[04:37] so we can finally take off the boot from the
[04:41] with an initial dusting just to loose
[04:46] at this point we aren't going for perfection in
[04:51] will be spraying the interior cleaner and flicking
[04:56] for you always try to keep the doors shut because
[05:02] bit of wind and there was lots of pollen and there
[05:06] a lot quicker than it was coming out the seats are
[05:14] and before you say why don't you just get out
[05:18] i don't need to and that's because i'm using
[05:22] on everything i just want to prove that you don't
[05:28] car cleaning so i'm using three different brushes
[05:33] is different so next time we get a horrific car
[05:39] a steamer and the power drill so make sure you hit
[05:48] the door cards have the usual scuffs and
[05:52] cleaner but as you spray the doors it's
[05:56] as you don't want the chemical residue on it
[06:01] to the top simply spray the tip of the brush work
[06:12] with the seats taken care of and pushed back i'm
[06:17] again i'm using the heroic poundland brushes
[06:22] earlier which brings me to another disgusting
[06:28] in things like dog poo or walk in public toilets
[06:33] were used on the pedals and then used on the
[06:38] those germs back onto your hands so remember that
[06:44] the germs can spread easily and it's horrendous
[06:49] useful then please give this video a thumbs up
[06:54] you may think you need loads of water to
[06:59] in many cases you can make do with a good
[07:05] if it's horrid then a wet extraction is definitely
[07:11] may notice that i always preach about not using
[07:16] need to break out the glass cleaner and the method
[07:22] that you have to spray a little bit of cleaner
[07:27] important to get the windows down slightly and if
[07:32] be a real eyesore so spend the extra few minutes
[07:38] plastics is the very last thing i carry out when
[07:43] yum interior is that good you don't always need
[07:48] prefer yourself and because it's anti-static it
[07:55] so there you have it it just goes to show you
[07:59] a very good job in fact you need a couple
[08:04] that will be good enough for your general
[08:08] videos like this that go a bit more in depth
[08:13] steam cleaning and also breaking out the power
[08:17] turn on those bell notifications and
[08:20] is going to be coming in the next few days
