HE'S FIGURED OUT HOW TO CLEAN CYBERTRUCKS! COLETON'S CLEANING CONCOCTION FOR STAINLESS

EV Channels Review

This episode delves into the unique challenges of detailing the Tesla Cybertruck's stainless steel exterior. Host Francie is joined by Colton of Out of Spec Detailing, who shares his extensive, albeit challenging, experience testing various cleaning solutions. Colton found the stainless steel surface to be a significant pain point, prone to fingerprints and developing an undesirable orange or brown patina. He highlights that traditional detailing methods and products often failed or exacerbated the issue, with ceramic coatings even worsening the finish. After considerable experimentation, Colton discovered a combination of Barkeeper's Friend liquid and Windex to be the most effective solution for removing tarnish and achieving a cohesive, bright finish, even on panels with color discrepancies. However, he stresses that this finish remains unprotected and anticipates many owners may opt for wraps. The review underscores the material's unique properties, its susceptibility to environmental factors like bugs and salt brine, and the extreme temperature fluctuations it endures, suggesting that maintaining a pristine Cybertruck will be a significant undertaking for owners.
