Hey Larry, I have been subscribed for a long time and have been watching your videos for several years. Your videos were the first videos that got me into wanting to really start to "DETAIL" my own cars and they struck an OCD cord with me. I have been working on my cars and other family members cars and getting better and better. Watching and rewatching your great comprehensive steps to detailing, for example the one here, have made a big difference. About 16 years ago I started a dark period in my life where a heart disease that I was diagnosed with at age 19 finally took over and I became completely disabled at age 38. After a series of operations, procedures and many many medications my heart finally arrived at the end stage of heart failure in 2016 and was placed on a heart transplant list. I was one of the lucky ones and a heart became available just 4 months after being placed on the list. The surgery was just over 2 years ago and I now know how normal people feel...lol. Sorry for the history but wanted you to know that while this was going on I was watching and learning. It would take my mind off things for a little while. I now want to jump into the detailing world with both feet. If you get time I would love to talk to you or exchange emails on how I can go about this. Thank you in advance. By the way...where can I get that detailing brush that was used at 16:06 in the video?

One of the best channels on KZread for production value and information in this field. Now add Mr. Meguiar in an interview? Over the top!

This could be a video on discouraging someone from doing their own detailing. In all these video's, I think I've heard 4 to 5 different cutting and sealing variations with several variations within each and at least 2 or 3 terminologies in regards to several steps of doing each process.

Polishing paint with these tools is no joke. It’s not super easy and you can ruin your cars paint. If this is too much information that you don’t care to learn or figure out, you probably shouldn’t try to polish your own car. You want easy, pay the money for a pro to do it.

A true master of buffing, the knowledge in this video is so golden! The 3d visualization was amazing too

Clean each panel with an IPA before starting. Larry is my reference to quality work.

Larry is gifted at explaining and teaching others, love the visuals you give. As a teacher myself, you are great at helping people understand the lesson you teach.

Awesome video. After 16 hours of polishing on a 2010 Mustang GT I bought 4 months ago I finally got it dialed in. I have been trained by one of the best in the country. Mike Phillips to be exact. It still took a lot of research and patience to finally get it to perfection. Every serious detailers should watch this video

Seriously, just thank you for these videos! The knowledge gained from what I've seen thus far is just so invaluable!

Hey Kevin, it's amazing that buffing is being taught threw a video and on a black paint job on top of everything else. You know as well as I do that it takes a lot of practice to buff and lots of knowledge of different kinds of paint and paint conditions. On the other hand, it's nice to see that buffing information is easy to access and not a secret that has been kept to only the automotive paint industry.

I encountered this on my last detail. '97 Viper GTS where the front clamshell has been re-painted, but the back half was original. Water and frequent pad cleaning/ adding more, not less polish was the solution. Seeing this in this form is amazing. Thank you for everything you do Larry, and Kevin. Amazing work as always.

Larry and Kevin are so knowledgeable, it just blows my mind. Huuuuge fan you guys and the pride and care you take in your job.

Your production quality and quality of work is fantastic. One of my favorite channels on youtube. Thank you for presenting such great content.

Absolutely killer video Larry! So much prescription in detailing, this pad, this polish, this speed...I've spent hours researching. At some point you have to jump in, but at what risk? This is just the video that everyone NEEDS to watch. It's about process. Technique is easy, buying expensive s*#t is easy, but understanding approach and how to adapt, besides "start with the least abrasive" is difficult to put to words given the millions of cars and paint types...this is so well done, much appreciated. Thank you man!

When he said "what's up guys, I wanna hop in here before the video starts" I was thinking "oh no. Here comes an annoying sponsor ad, Larry sold out". And then he went on to say that he already washed and dried the car and then I remembered Larry is freaking awesome and does this because he wants to help us and educate us, not because he wants to make money off of us. Never stop doing what you do Larry. You're a huge inspiration to myself and tons of other people, and I appreciate your genuine passion and the effort you put into each and every video.

As always Larry another great video but even better with the knowledge Kevin and you share together.

Barry is such a good dude! Every time I see him at SEMA he is always in a good mood and full of life. He is just a good guy to be around. I list him as one of my top 5 people in the industry to talk to.

Well produced videos ! You break it down and make things simple and clear to understand . One of my mentors and go to companies for anything Detailing . Thanks Ammo NYC !

Like always the best detailing videos. Larry thanks a lot for having kevin brown on your video and sharing the knowledge from a Professional poin of view

Thank you so much AMMO NYC, because of your guy's wise knowledge, I am able to apply these techniques towards my business!

Even tho being a professional car detailer you never stop learning new tricks. Thanks guys some great tips

There is certainly an element of science to the art of true paint correction. A big thanks for sharing these tips!

I am so grateful for this man. What a champ Barry is. All his products are bang on, high quality concours level stuff, AMMO NYC stuff is amazing too of course but Meguairs is just absolutely phenomenal and kept my car looking pristine.

Great video as always. I've been watching Your videos (as a professional detailer) since 2014 and learned a lot. Love the editing and extra animations. Keep it getting better and of course KEEP IT CLEAN! Cheers from Poland :D

Spring is coming here in Minnesota and I’m pulling the black 996 out soon. I’m going to get busy now! Winter beater is silver so it will get some love. Blue Macan is in the running. So much to learn as I’m more a mechanic than a detailer. Great channel! Been watching this grow for years.

My dad had a black twin spinner Ford taxi in the early '50s which he used for weddings & funerals. After polishing it you could see streaks all over the paintwork. He would sprinkle corn flour over the car and then go over it section by section, lightly, with a polishing cloth. This completely removed the streaks with little effort.

What a privilege to work with the best names in the industry Larry a job well done!! You are such an inspiration to me and to alot of aspiring detailers out there.

You two are the best and Barry is just down right the MAN. I use a bunch of their products. I know what you were intending to do but I couldn’t help thinking dang its a black race car just go drive the hell out of it. You drive down the coast and just reversed the process! California sand is hell on paint. When your gonna drive the car make it look good from 5 feet and go enjoy the drive.

thank you Guys for sharing all this knowledge with us, is nice to see two real Mater detailers being so humble and down to earth. Larry I am going to say this in a nice way of course, I am green with envy about you riding with Berry and driving such a nice car,

It's refreshing to see professionals use readily available equipment and products. It shows you don't need to spend thousands of dollars to get a quality result.

This video really explained some of the hardships I've been having on my 80s mercedes Smoke Silver paint. Part of it was overworking M105, but the residue and contamination aspects I think more explain why the compound residue was sticking so much.

Just bought a black truck and I knew what I was getting into. But it’s worth it.

Thanks for bringing the masses content that is available for everyone for free Larry. Very much appreciated that I don't have to pay hundreds of dollars to take a class to learn from a professional.

Thank you so much for your tips I was able to detail my 1st F250 this past week, it was black and it was covered it in the kind of stain you use on wood. Came out looking buttery.

Excellent Video ! Thanks to both Larry and Kevin.

Thanks for taking the time for these videos, so informative. About to do a black 300SX in a couple weeks.

Brilliant as usual, Larry. Great stuff.

Larry, great video! I wanted to ask, what if you don't have access to a garage? How can I make this into a driveway project for my Corvette while minimizing/avoiding contamination!?

Finally I am getting my black car to actually look good. I have tried so many pads, polishers and products and it just never comes out like I see in everyones videos. Finally seen that I still had residue and my aint or area was not prepped right. I was using some harsh stuff that felt like sand and still it didn't make a difference still had the same swirls and scratches just more shine to it. I wasn't taking my time wasn't leveling down pads but most importantly my prep was garbage.

Great great video... !!! I've been detailing car's for years and started buffing recently and learning the science behind it (which I think is amazing) this video just tought me a hole bunch !!! So, thank you for the great video !!! 👍👍

Another great video Larry. Really like your products.

Man.. I really respect detailers it’s a true art

Larry, you are the man! Please do a curb rash video soon!

Thanks for making these videos. Very helpful for beginners.

Key point that was said by the Guru, "Keep in mind your removing Paint or Clear Coat Permanently" So only cut the paint if you HAVE to. I try to explain this to folks that are out every other weekend with their polisher chasing down every single imperfection in their daily driver. You just might be doing more harm than good, and to think that oops I removed too much clear coat, I will just add another coat of a ceramic coating in place of what I just took off, it doesn't work that way. Nothing will help your paint more than the factory clear (assuming it is 2 or 3 stage paint etc). Just my thoughts.

+1 on the water on dry residue after the mow-down cycle with compound. I sometimes even used the water compound slurry on the paint with the buffer to let the compound continue to do its thing (sometimes it would dry out prematurely due to the ambient temperature because we were in SC in the summer- indoors of course but still...) it almost always worked out. Before the age of inspection lights (early 1989) we would take it back out in the sun to do a CHECK. The sun would be a tell-tale sign of how we were doing. We have come so far now that it's unreal...

Iv'e learned so much from these videos, thanks Larry and Kevin :)

Great production, well organized and very professional.

So much information in this video!!! I love it!! I'm really tired off all these mobile detailers makeing videos contradicting the steps that need to be taken. They play it off like this isn't important, or that isn't important....they keep watering down the detailing realm with bad, very bad information. Dont get me wrong I'm a mobile detailer but I dont make video after video of miss information and watering down the ideas and processes involved in correcting paint. I just dont get it. Disheartening at the least. What's worse is these guys feel like they are providing the correct information. My rant is over.. Hopefully someone else has seen this in the detailing community.

Another great video Larry! The new graphics are really good.. as usual the advice is spot on too.

You guys are great. As they sometimes a very small thing can cause big issue and its really nice you guys cover all such topic which otherwise are ignored or usually arnt given much of a thought. Keep up the good work.

Love your videos and the passion to detailing.Did you some how prep the paint after the polishing befor the wax was applied?

There is so much to learn, these guys are amazing 😯

Wonderful tutorial . Came across a tacoma hood that had oxidation and heavy discoloration . Stubborn swirls and I just did 2 step paint correction on a 2018 blk srt8 charger last week in my shop looks flawless. Today struggles on hood. I believe my pads are taking up faster with all the oxidation I will follow these steps weird that different paint shop different results. FYI the Tacoma is electric blue not even blk

I love your videos, many times I stay up late at night watching them and I have always wondered if things you would do would work on motorcycles. I know that your KZread channel is from cars but it would be amazing to see how you do it on motorcycles as well

I actually love your videos!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

This is an infinitely better technique than what I've been doing for the last year. I just need to buy a lot more cutting pads now.

I have a 2001 black hilander. From past 5 feet it looks great... Get close and watter spots every where...that have been there awhile . And lots of small scratches plus the hood looks like someone shot it a few hundred times with a BB gun. A noob to car detailing and polishing. Just purchase all equipment and chemicals to give it serious TLC.Almost $200 😮..and it's 105 outside and I don't have a garage 😢 But I will figure it out. Been religiously watching and saving best available videos in preparation so thank you for this one as it's specifically designed for my situation 😊
