I subbed to that channel also I’m subbed to this channel
Get rid of that salt!
What's the link to buy the pressure washer Scotty? In case I don't win! Lol
Has anyone told you that you resemble John Lennon
Clean non-offensive !
Scotty, your about the only guy someone can watch for free that tells the truth and wants nothing in return. We all appreciate you!!
::: And the giveaways are nice too!
On point!
Love it!
He gets CZcams Viewers and Commentators money like yourself and I ;)
Truth 💯💯💯
I’m a proud uncertified mechanic because of Scotty.
I think some of us are better than a few professional mechanics because of Scotty.
Buy anything made by the Big 3 now. You'll be certifiable in no time. 😁
“ Necessity is the mother of invention”, I like that, so true!
Laziness too
“Honey, why is that neighbor guy laying in his driveway talking to himself?”
5:27 Scottys a true man of culture
Imagine being lucky enough to have a mechanic like Scotty near you!
I could have used the cordless pressure washer just yesterday washing my Van by hand. Constantly traveling on the roads and then maybe pulling off to boondock, this tool would come in so handy. I was unaware there was a cordless pressure washer on the market. Thank you Scotty~
@@oregonstrong1080 yea that seems really handy. I have an electric pressure washer but this is way easier than attaching a hose to the house and plugging in the washer. It would be way easier to just fill a bucket
I was lucky… until he moved to Tennessee
I do he just ain't done it as long as Scotty
I didn’t think of a pressure washer and now I want one . Just goes to show you can never have to many gadgets or tools
Thanks Scotty! That portable sprayer is a great idea for people who live in an apartment.
I’ll try gasoline. Scotty said it’s a good cleaning agent.
Light up a cigarete while you at it !
Hehehehehe
Drys with a residue though... Hmmm acetone ?
@@beaub8446 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂
@@ayebee1207 lmao
I just tried this and do not recommend. Its removing my paint.
I seen one person a small sprinkler with wheels connected to garden hose, and just rolled it back-n-forth under car. Seemed like a great idea.
RYOBI ? makes a attachment for a pressure washer that has wheels , you push and pull underneath your vehicle
That's a good idea, I might try to make something like that for myself...
@@peterrudy9207 I have one got it at Home Depot works great
I love how Scotty always includes “common sense” in the things he uses in his videos
It's amazing how we can forget to take care of the car during winter time, especially if one is not used to it. Thanks Scotty for making us take care of our cars!
Something about seeing Scotty spraying the car with the wireless sprayer was just really wholesome
It’s so hard to take good care of cars when you live in an apartment. That mobile washer is pretty cool!
I know! Half of the ones don’t even want you to have the hood open let alone wash it in their parking lot...
@@nickthenab1 yep.
There’s always a Carwash somewhere; I always use touchless carwash. My Benz is washed very frequently (several times/week) throughout the Winter.
Go to a self wash and do it. Bring your own wash and a bucket. Spray out the brush and clean your car. Spray your car off and get to work. You'll save money by only having to use use the pressure wash after your cleaned the car. I clean my car with max 5 bucks that way.
Yeah I usually take it to a self wash car wash. But there’s only one near my house and it’s a 20 min drive away and it’s not very well taken care of. Shame
What would make you not want to be like this man. He is more than about cars. So inspirational even washing your car. Motivating you to want to take care of your car and live a good life.
Scotty, you are very entertaining to watch and listen to. I always do my own work whenever possible and I am a 69 year old female. Thank you for speaking in a normal tone to those of us that do our own repairs and maintenance. Love your videos!
I wish more people were like him, wanting to help everyone
Scotty has legitimately taught me 90% of what I know about cars
Scotty’s energy level is always the best
I've binged watched so many Scotty videos.. my favorite part by far it's when he laughs and the pic of an animal laughing comes up lol. I watched the whole video to see that.
The ex took the pressure washer in the divorce...And my driveway is too far for my hose to reach... This video just gave me new hope.
"Mom the neighbor is climbing in his trunk again"
😂
Love your videos Scotty! I wish there were more mechanics like you, honest and upfront.
I love the page Scotty that’s a really cool pressure washer never knew you could get a electric powered one
I’m glad you’re in good health Scotty. 💪🏾
Scotty getting down on his hands and knees for his viewers what a guy💪🏻💪🏻
Scotty, you are my favorite professor on CZcams university! Keep up the good lessons 👩🏽🎓😄
I do pressure washer cleaning frequently in the job I have, and I can give some pointers. First, go with a gasoline one if you're going to use it on a regular basis. The problem with electric ones is that eventually when water does get in (and it always does), it'll start to corrode the wiring and circuit boards inside. Also, if you do use an electric one make sure that you plug it into a GFCI outlet or buy a portable GFCI power strip. When washing anything with paint, use the green nozzle included. The red nozzle is 0 degrees, the yellow is 15, and the white is 40 degrees. The green is a 25 degree fan. DO NOT USE A TURBO NOZZLE. This is basically the 0 degree red nozzle that oscillates. This will (though not with an electric pressure washer which doesn't have a ton of pressure) strip the clear coat / paint off your vehicle. I've found in years of using pressure washers that the green 25 degree tip is perfect for getting most grime off of vehicles. If you're careful you can use the yellow 15 degree fan nozzle, but don't get too close to the paint. The black nozzle is strictly used for dispensing soap, and doesn't have much pressure behind it. The other thing is to NEVER spray electrical connectors with a pressure washer. While they're sealed against splashes and whatnot, the pressure washer will push water past the seals.
The thought of Scotty acting like Rambo while bombarding his grandkids with that battery powered power washer... Lmao
MUAHAHAHA! CRY SOME MORE! CRY SOME MORE!
Dad, stop it... I'm telling mom.
Scotbo: First Wrench Part II - awesome movie, but I still like First Wrench best.
I know you're kidding but seriously never spray a human with a pressure washer. It will cause a fatal infection if you hold the house close enough to inject liquid into the skin
Ever since I found this channel, I got addicted to watching
@Meep. I know what you mean, I've been watching Scotty for years. He's the most honest person on CZcams 👍👍
Thanks for the tips! I live in Ontario, and every time the temperature goes above freezing a take my Tacoma to the DIY wash and give it a good cleaning. No rust so far, but it's also a 2020
It's still too cold up here in Mississauga. To clean your car in the driveway.The snow is just starting to melt. Great video
It’s warming up outside. Looks like I need to get off my “rear end” and clean my car! Thanks for the tips Scotty!👍
I've got a local mechanic in SoFlo that reminds me of Scotty, quality business. Will never go anywhere else.
I live in Northern IL and thankfully I do maintenance at a factory where I can pull into the truck bay and rinse my car off anytime. 2013 Subaru Forester with not a spot of rust!
Wow, that battery pack pressure washer is really cool, I never knew those existed.
Electric
Love a Scotty video to start the day!
Just what I need Scotty, living in a rental apartment where I can’t get a power cord all the way to the parking or a water hose. Thanks Scotty!
They have waterless wash and microfiber towels. But the batch at the wholesale club you will need more. And microfiber soap for the washer no softner.
Appreciate all the helpful hints and tips, Scotty! Your advice regarding washing and rinsing the vehicle's undercarriage are definitely on point - especially for vehicles being driven up north.
A very timely review of a tool that anyone with a car can use. Thank you Scotty.
Scotty: “Rev up your pressure washer.”
Please never stop what you do Scotty. We need you here.
I had no idea they made power washers like that. I live in an apartment and that would come in handy!
Love Scotty always showing us the basics in the most informative way
Scotty Kilmer the best ever virtual assistant for all vehicle owners on youtube!
Hi Mr. Scotty,
Thanks again for the great ideas and how to demonstrations. Lots of road salt used here in northern Utah.
You always have some pretty cool videos and that’s a good little sprayer to take with you
Oh, if only he would’ve said, “Say hello to my little friend!” As he was waving that pressure washer handle around.
😂
1:14 from rated pg to rated r in just those few seconds 😂
She knows exactly what to do with a dirty, dirty car lmao
Needs a vinegar and water base cleaner for those parts...........
scotty, you i have been watching your videos since 2010 when i got my first car
At 55, I am a new driver and car owner (2001 Toyota Vitz n(Yaris/Echo). I constantly view Scotty's videos for knowledge on topics mechanics wont discuss with me.
Good advise, I wash mine ASAP after salted roads. Try and find car wash with the underneath sprayer.
Scotty thank you for everything you've taught me about cars with your help I now know how to fix my Toyota Highlander now you're offering us something to cleaner cars great job man keep up the good work God bless
Scotty you just made my day with this video. I live in an apartment and I drive a really nice high-end luxury car so 2001 the Lexus LS430 it's a beautiful car but I don't have access to a water hose to wash my car or a power washer to hook up but when you show me this battery powered one I would love to have this would make it very convenient for me to wash my car thank you. I Love your videos so keep up the great work!!!
I'm sure you have heard all the kiss up comments but you have helped me to help 10's of people including myself to save megabucks. Thanx & don't ever stop or pass away on us
That washer is a little weak. I think my garden hose is stronger
@Shinidoshi but why would he want us to use a pressure washer on such a low setting when garden hose cannons exist too
Hose pressure doesn't matter since the machine will just compress the water. If the hose pressure was reallllly too weak the machine would constantly just cycle between building up pressure and spraying. You need atleast a little constant water in that hose. His machine for the demo doesn't have a strong enough pump.
Depending where you live you may have your outside faucets turned off and drained for the winter, this cordless sprayer would be an option. Mine is off from mid November to mid April. Personally I would just drop by the spray wash bay when I cant use my garden hose.
You don't want the pressure too high, you'll damage the paint. Especially if you're spraying too close
Its a toy - better off using a $3.00 nozel from China
Almost 4million subscribers, Scotty!... Thank you so much for your help 🙏.... Hope the computer picks me
That's just great advise, don't want your car to rot even here in tn. I wished I lived closer to you Scotty, I need a good mechanic, but any how keep up the great work. Mr. C
Fan of your honesty and cut throat truth. Glad we have you at a platform where you can educate people in masses.
Especially with spring my 94 Camry is gonna need a good wash!💯
This video notification came up on my phone literally as I was preparing to wash my car... With a hose and soapy bucket😅
Anton,
We're Not watching you.
Well, maybe you're being monitored, a little.
For your own good ...
I’m following you from Yemen
And i just want you to know you r the best one ever
Thank you for sharing all this knowledge with us
God bless you
Learn something new every day! Always wash/rinse your car while it's cold. Makes sense.
Thanks for the info!
And love the idea of a portable power washer. Very cool.
Thanks for reminding us Ohioans about the salt under our cars. My problem is I am 71 years old and cannot physically wash my car the proper way you showed. Could you loan me some of your grand kids to wash my old Chevy?
71 years old and commenting on youtube.. badass! Hope your day is great
A 71 year old knows what a good car is. That's why he has a Chevy!
They have hose attachments with wheels for washing cars. Just roll it under the car and it sprays water straight up.
If you have one of those old school Fords can I have it?
Just drive through a fresh water lake like I do😃,or wate till it rains on a clean road
Scotty thank you for all the years of great advice and all your hard work.
Thanks for the cleaning tips. When the weather is bad I try not to drive in the snow and ice. My Prius is 13 years old and no rust since I keep it clean.
Great Advice. I get my cars rustproofed at Krown every two years. I've got a 2008 Audi A4S, looks brand new.
"Scotty, your the best!" I've learned a lot from your vids. Thanks.
I'm just waiting for the warmer weather, definitely need to clean the salt off a few family members cars as well as my own. The power washer will be handy for sure.
I've never heard of cordless pressure washers. I'm buying one of these.
How it go?
Scotty, I got rid of my nice Ford Excursion because the differential cover rusted thru and started to leak oil. Mechanic then checked out the engine oil pan, that was seriously rusted too. Fixing that involves almost removing the engine, so yes you do need to wash off the heavy metal pieces as well. I have a pressure washer thingy that shoots water (soapy) straight up to clean off the underneath while the car is on the ground. By the ways, the replacement dif. cover was painted NOT powder coated and was made in Mexico, seems that the US EPA has determined that painting is bad for your health as are cadmium plated brake lines that don't rust, fortunately the excur. brakes failed in my garage. The Ford had NO body rust unlike the Chevy suburban it replaced, whata rust bucket that was. My 20+ MB has little or no rust anywhere but they don't make them like that anymore.
I’ve been binging this channel the past couple of weeks! You’re the man Scotty!
Dropping gems Scottie, appreciate your help!
I have learned more from your You Tube channel, than the many other qualified mechanics, uploading on You Tube. I appreciate the blunt truth you give sir.
always great content Scotty, you've showed so much thru the years and its much appreciated!!
I'm always worried about the salt in Pennsylvania. My wife and I love watching your videos.
Circle K offers car wash subscriptions. $20/mo for the standard plan. Touch less car washes that also sprays the undercarriage. Up to 2 washes a day. Well worth it as each wash individually is $9 and you can do 2 washes a day.
I just get my car wash when I get my gas which is at least once a day.
A cordless car wash sprayer. Nice!! It's a great idea for someone with limited storage space. People in apartments can now have their own car wash.
I want ! Thanks to you I learned a lot about cars! I enjoy washing my own car but I wait long lines and pay for each minute! This would help me out a lot in money and time!
I've never seen someone so happy washing their vehicle.
I would love one of those pressure washers. perfect for living in an apartment!
Great video Mr. Scotty!!!
scotty love your channel you have taught me a few things i like old school cars i watch it every night i get off work you make me think i do most of my auto repairs but carberrated cars a lot easer for me i wash my cars alot to keep my toy cars clean and rust free 91 camaro and 2001 pontiac transam firehawk with 21 thousand on it keep going on youtube
Scotty... Thanks for the reminder to wash my car!
As always thanks for the great content Scotty!
I love watching your videos. My wife knows nothing about cars, however, she will sit down beside me to watch whenever I put on your latest episode. Thank you so much for all you do sir.
how do i wish when I was a Toyota Master tech and group leader I had at least one of you Sir Scotty...knowledge...what is it and why most don't have it these days ? You just rock Scotty...keep on doing what your doing..A great service to the folks out there that want to know how to fix heir vehicles and the info you goive is honest and thus priceless..A national treasure Mr. TY
That pressure washer is so cool. I would love to be able to win one.
Well, this cordless washer is a great option to wash off salt, but also you can wash of smile of bad mechanics faces preatty much anywhere now!
Love your channel, expertise and HONESTY the world is a better place with people like you in it
Scotty's so slick, right when I thought his answer to "no hose or electrical outlet" was going to be a hydrant wrench and adaptor, he comes out with the wireless sprayer and old bucket routine. Now it makes me really wonder about Scotty's marriage / divorce slick advice, maybe that's a third channel?
"Each One, Teach One" Thanks, Scotty I've learned so much thru the years, You are so appreciated!!
Scotty: Soo nnaaoow you wanna start washing your car.
**Sprays his camera set**
😁 excellent idea. So many cars get rust after winter snow season. That’s why I live in Florida and would never buy a car north of north Carolina. They usually are rust buckets. 🤬
That portable one doesn't seem too bad, I'd like to see reviews on it.
5:47 Need need one of those for NY winters!
I live on a dirt road----My Tacoma has a perfect frame, and I want to keep it that way----I need a pressure washer!!!!
Scotty amazing video Always taking care of everyone through hard work on your car👍
Thank you Scotty! Now I'm considering doing mobile auto detailing!
Hey Scotty I appreciate the insight for how to get rid of all the salt. Hoping the computer chooses me for the power washer 😀
