i really think this is my best review yet. i did a great job and so did the product. works awesome and preserves the shine and i filmed in hd with my new camera enjoy.(the reason why it went quite when washing is because of the camera being to far away). NOTE: as for my nxt 2.0 review that was a quick review because a contest was going on i thought for free products from meguiarsasia. so thats why it was quick so please enjoy!!

I wish washing a vehicle was that simple.

Just about any soap will foam up like that from a strong blast of water with a couple oz of solution lying in a nearly empty bucket.

I dont think you washed with as much water as you should have?

Looks like you need to clean your bucket out, looked a little dirty?

Did you dry the car?

Re: Meguiar's Deep Crystal Wash Review (720p)

of course i dried the car. if you watched the whole thing at the end she was looking great. the bucket is an older bucket and i need to get a new one soon. the water was fine in my opinion i dont just go and waste water. but thanks you for watching i apprecita ethe support =)

I did watch all of the video and at the end I saw some droplets of water on the roof and sides of the vehicle.

As for the water, I meant more water should have been in the bucket since you should not just be washing with a bunch of suds.

Thank you for taking the time in doing a mini product review for a Meguiar's product! We all really appreciate your enthusiasm in using Meguiar's products!

In the video, I hope you were using the 2 bucket method: after you wash a car's panel, you rinse the mitt in the fresh clean water, and then wring it out so that the mitt will be better able to absorb more cleaning solution from the wash/soap bucket. Clean the panel and repeat. Work your way from the top of the car down. Please take a moment and look through the How-To section of MOL for suggestions and proper methodology.

As for filling a wash bucket, try filling the bucket 3/4 full of water, then add the proper amount of soap to water ratio and then top off with water. The reason you could/should have used more water is prevent any dirt from being accidentally caught by the mitt and transferred to the car's paint. This is even more important as you were not using a Grit Guard nor a rinse bucket. Remember it is not mainly the suds/foam that does the cleaning; it is the cleaning solution. Spraying the soap bucket with water with the soap already in it tends to exacerbate the foam, but at the expense of adding little water.

Just a quick word of advice: your videos are improving; keep at it! But when someone with more experience (like Tuck etc) makes suggestions in the proper methodology and/or the proper means in using a product etc, you need to be a little more open to their suggestions. Remember everyone on MOL is here to learn. It takes YEARS to master any craft and car detailing is one of them. In time, with your enthusiasm, I have no doubt you will be posting more and more.

You simply need to follow the directions.

When using Deep Crystal Car Wash, you need to use 1oz of solution per gallon of water.

Perhaps you should take the time to do a little reading as Tim suggested.

Re: Meguiar's Deep Crystal Wash Review (720p)

First review that I saw completly. Less talk and more action. You are improving your videos, thats very good, keep improving and the good work. I always wanted to make some videos like this but I dont have a video camera.

Just some ideas that come to my mind. If I will make the review I will try to put the product on a table, the background is ok, but maybe a white background or another full color background is the best. put the camera at some distance with a tripod and start recording like when you wash the car. Then you can move freely to talk about the product, maybe you can talk in the side of the product. So the product will be fixed there we can see it well. All the other part is good,the washing demostration was excelent way to show the product in action

You may want to try Home Depot as they usually have the right size 5 gallon buckets which hold your future Grit Guards () perfectly. I actually use 3 buckets with Grit Guards, but I am a little crazy!

To be honest, your videos and knowledge will come in time. The best thing is that you have the enthusiasm! Stick with it!!! But along the way, try and learn as much as you can. The more actual knowledge and practical experience you gain, will in time, begin to show in your reviews. Try working on a more professional appearance to your posts by using proper spelling and grammar. Remember, it is the whole package!

Until then, you must be patient! And remember, everyone here on MOL is car crazy and since you were washing your car in January, you are definitely Car Crazy!

Re: Meguiar's Deep Crystal Wash Review (720p)

hahah yeah thank you tim. and pr brian. yeah i try to use my knowledge to the best i can. i know quite a bit for a 17 year old kid. i just dont want to show my face. im not a face on the internet type of guy. but your correct my bottle was too close. i basically give some basic info about the product as is because i dont want to bore the heck outta people. again thanks for all the nice comments from everyone i appreciate it

Re: Meguiar's Deep Crystal Wash Review (720p)

BTW ... the comments referencing your buckets where not to say that they were old or the like but rather a comment referencing a method (2 buckets with grit guards) just making it clear as im sure you will run out to home depot and buy two new buckets and post a video on your new two bucket method.
As stated when washing you should start at the top and work your way down ... you started at the top then went to the side then the bottom (gathered the most dirt) then rubbed it all in the middle sections.

Re: Meguiar's Deep Crystal Wash Review (720p)
